    Report on-board Skylark

    Finally got a couple of trips fishing this week with the anglers getting some nice bags of fish.

    Fishing is steady away with plenty of codlings and a few whiting about.

    Thursday the weather was cold but settled we only had 4 anglers aboard as 1 had cancelled and the other 3 did not turn up.
    but the lads had a good a amount of plump Codlings with over 30 in a 6 hour trip heaviest fish was around 5 lb.

    Friday we had another 6 hour trip fishing again was pretty much the same but with a few more larger fish around the 3 to 4lb area the weather started out brilliant like a summers day but around lunchtime the winds became stronger and the sea conditions deteriorated the anglers carried on fishing for a few hours in the conditions but decided to call the trip short by an hour as the fishing became difficult.

    Saturday we had a 8 hour trip and we travelled further afield which seamed to produce a better stamp of fish but not as many as the previous days so we travelled to the same ground we fished Thursday and Friday and again they were really productive yet again.
    Heaviest Fish today was 7lb.

    The Anglers have used a good mix of baits over the 3 days but overall Squid and Crab Cart seamed to be the best all round bait tipped with other baits like razor and lugworm.
