Two sessions of anchored fishing on two different Bank marks produced plenty of action with a variety of Rays,Tope, Bull Huss,
Spurdogs,Smooth Hounds, Conger and the usual Dogfish.The successful bait for all the fish was cocktails of Ammo Squid and Mackerel mounted on pennell rigs. Kevin Clark from Plymouth was very pleased to land his first ever Spurdog which weighed in at 17Ib 7oz and now his Personal Best (pictured). Keith Butwell landed two Undulate Rays weighing 15Ib 12oz and 12Ib. Trevor Digby from Derby shire landed a Bull Huss weighing 14Ib 8oz and new Personal Best.

MAY 2014
A lovely summer wrecking trip produced plenty of fish which included Pollack,Ling,Cod and Bass. The fish were caught on a variety of lures but the evolusion red gills in colours of Pink,Black and Orange, Blue and White accounted for the majority of the fish with the good old Rhubarb and Custard sidewinder also catching it's share.A mention to Nick Gunn who I think caught a fish on every drift using a Black and Orange Red Gill,his only dissapointing moment was when a 20Ib plus Cod escaped just before it was about to go in the landing. Pictured is Kevin Clark also did well and caught his Personal Best Bass weighing 6Ib 2oz on a Blue and White evolusion Red Gill.

Hi, April saw some excellent fish caught in particular big Undulate Rays and Spurdogs. Due to the poor water clarity the flatty fishing was very up and down but we still managed a few good Plaice, Turbot and Brill catches. At the end of the month the wrecking really picked up with some excellent Pollack fishing. Flamer IV Fish of the Month was awarded to Jon Patten with his 19Ib 14oz Undulate Ray(pictured). 24 different species have been caught so far this year on Flamer IV. During May I would expect the flatty fishing to improve along with the wreck trips for Pollack,Cod and Ling, and some Bass on the bigger tides. The inshore reefs will see the Black Bream arrive in numbers and the excellent Ray fishing should continue.
PLACES AVAILABLE IN MAY - Flatty Trips - May 1st - 1 place left, May 2nd - 1 place left,
Reef/Bank - May 5th - 5 places left, 15th - 4 places left, 16th - 10 places Left, 26th - 6 Places Left,

On only my second wrecking trip of the year it was nice to find some good water clarity and plenty of Pollack.The Pollack were caught on a variety of lures but the best lure on the day was certainly the Bubble Gum Pink Red Gill.Star of the show was Earl Coates who caught 14 Pollack which included two double figure Pollack weighing 12Ib 1oz(pictured) and 11Ib 11oz..Earl's successful tackle was a 15Ib class rod with a flying collar rig with a 12 foot trace and pink lure and of course his undoubted skill. Other double figure Pollack were caught by John Billett 12Ib,Russell Salmon 10Ib 14oz,Dave Kingman 11Ib 4oz. " SYMPATHY" must go to Flamer IV regular Rick Hawkins who was fishing next to Earl but could not catch a Pollack for love nor money,"Better luck next time Rick".

PLAICE R US - At last some settled weather and with small tides the water clarity improved enough so the Plaice could see the baits being offered. Tony Eadson's group on their first trip aboard Flamer IV took a bit of coaching but eventualy got the hang of how to catch a Plaice. Ravie Mandair who had been a sleep in the cabin all morning suddenly burst into action a proceeded to catch four Plaice more than any one else.Jackie Chan,Tony and Kes caught some Plaice weighing between 1Ib 8oz and 3Ib. Bajeed Shingh another of the group who had a job to stay awake for most of the day landed the biggest Plaice of the trip weighing in at 4Ib 12oz.(pictured).
The successful bait for all the Plaice was ragworm tipped with a strip of Ammo squid presented on a 1/0 Sakuma hook.. If the water clarity keeps improving the flatty fishing should go from strength to strength.
