    Report on-board FINS UP

    APRIL 2017
    Well, firstly and most importantly what a fantastic spell of settled weather we have had. Fingers crossed it will continue into the summer!  The weather has enabled us to get out on the fish frequently.  We have been concentrating more trips inshore on the flatties and reefs.
    The Shambles Bank has been giving up some great fish.  One of the biggest Brill I have ever seen was caught by Rob Symes weighing in at a very modest 11lb 9 oz. A few double figure Turbot were a welcome sight after seeing not much else but pollock whilst fishing offshore over the last  few months.
    Tope, Congers,  Spur Dogs have all been landed on the reef and I'm sure it won't be long until we see a scattering of Black Bream.
    Offshore wrecks have started to show more and frequent Ling on both lures and baits . The classic rhubarb and custard sandeel always a favourite for the Ling.
    Pollock are still in fairly good numbers. Some fish starting to look a little skinny though  after shooting their roe.
    Our sponsors Sidewinder have kindly donated a large amount of lures and braided line. If you would like to be in with a chance to win some of this  fabulous  gear, we will be running competition days wrecking on the lures. Please keep an eye on my FB page, I will be releasing the dates soon.
