Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
After a lovely family holiday last week, it was great to get back out again today.
With it being small neap tides, I had only the wrecks in mind. We headed out and gathered up plenty of fresh Mackerel before heading south to try a few offshore wrecks. I had an experienced group of lads aboard, so I was confident that if the fish were feeding, they’d get amongst them.
We arrived at our first wreck just as the Flood tide kicked in. The Southerly wind was beating the tide so we had a haphazard drift across the wreck. In three drifts we took only a couple of strap Ling, so we moved on.
With the lines streaming a bit; once I’d worked out where to set the drift, the second wreck was a bit better. We caught Ling every run over. Best drift we had six on at once. Nothing massive, but a few went into the boxes.
That kind of shaped the day. Once sport dried up, we pushed on to the next wreck. Bait traces dominated (as expected), but Steve Colbourne took a nice brace of Codling when he dropped a Shad down. We had a drop on one of my “favouritist” wrecks and amongst a few other fish, Daz Hilton hooked a really decent fish. After four massive thumps on the rod it came off….gutted!! I know a good one when I see one and that wasn’t small. I’d always recommend a minimum of 100lb mono for muppet traces on the wrecks. The big fish will be back in the wreck in a flash unless you bully them.
We kept on the move throughout the day and whilst sport wasn’t frantic, we caught every drift, which was good. “Top rod” today was Derek Coulson who won the boat sweep with a 9lb Ling. Derek is always super consistent and has a knack of just getting it right.
All in all, it was a great day out for me, spent in excellent company. I love having a boat full of regulars, the banter is always top notch.
Although….the next Pouting that Jamie Britton puts in my pocket will see him with a yellow card!!! LOL

Report on-board Galloper
We've enjoyed our first few days joining the tuna party down in Cornwall. The journey down was far from flat calm but but Galloper powered down there regardless. We made great time and got the tides just about perfect. For a huge chunk of the trip the big doosans were pushing us along at 18-20knt and so we did the journey in 20hrs.
Although the weather wasn't perfect for our first few trips and we had to work for the fish but we managed to put the lads on a few and got off to a great start. Falmouth did us proud offering the shelter and the fishing we needed. Let's hope we the rest of the season is as kind to us.
Thanks to those who have already joined us. Alex you made the trip down and the first few days easier and Barry for your help (including the grapes). I can't wait to share the rest of the adventure with those who are joining us over the next few weeks.
I have one individual space left for the 12/09 other than that I'm currently fully booked for the rest of the season.

Better fish from today 8 hour trip
Well today started off with two returning anglers who both have held the heaviest fish of the month this year battling it out both have never met, fishing next to each other.
Both fished their socks off today in challenging conditions at times and both managed to get good fish.
Steve beat his previous fish with a cracking 9lb Pollock which is also a specimen fish.
Alan managed to get a respectable 8lb Ling
Unfortunately neither of them beat the current winning fish but gave it a really good go.
Fishing today was patchy at times with flutters of fish throughout the day.
With a few cod and Pollock showing aswel as loads of big pouting, a few whiting, a single mackerel again.
We did see two bottle nose dolphins at the beginning of the trip heading south. View Boats Page

Report on-board Skylark
Weather hasn't been kind to us this past week and many trips have been cancelled due to the north easterly winds.
Fishing has been challenging with not many cod and Pollock showing up but every trip we have found a few better fish.
All trips we have found plenty of pouting, a handful of ballen wrasse and dogfish taking the hooks.
Unfortunately we haven't seen a single mackerel in the last week or so. With the inshore grounds becoming quite coloured bait fishing has been key.
All photos are the better fish from the last 2 days.
Our heaviest fish competition for the month has only a few days left now
A 14lb 6oz cod caught on today's trip is leading so far.
Can it be beaten
Competition is in memory of a good friend (Ben Mennell) who actually won this competition back in 2016. View Boats Page

On board Lady of the Lake III
We locked out at 0900 this morning and headed just inshore to try for some mackerel. A couple of marks produced a few bream, with some good signs of life on the ground.
With the odd cod showing recently, we fancied ourl luck equiped with pulley pennells with large baits and Boooooom r – it paid off! Our youngest angler today, just 16 years old, put the seasoned hands to shame by landing a cracking 7lb cod. A proper fish and a proud moment for him – couldn’t ask for better.
With cod starting to show, we’re looking forward to more over the coming weeks.
�� Fancy getting in on the action and hitting the wrecks and reefs or the known ground.

The strong easterly winds this week have been a real pain with most trips being cancelled. But one of my regular groups decided they would make the most of it and try something a bit different and it really paid off . Fishing in the harbour all day they managed to break the record for most species caught in the harbour in one session with 17. Including loads of Black and Gilthead Bream, Smoothounds, Plaice , Flounder, Sea Scorpion, Dragonet,Red Mullet,Thinliped Mullet and even Dace and Rudd ! If you are interested in this sort of trip it can be done on the right tides, but you need to have some angling experience and it works out expensive per person as it can only really be done with a maximum of 4 anglers.
In the Piscary species hunt the boat tally now stands at 56 top 5 so far
