Not done a catch report for a long while
So thought we best do a summary of what's going on.
Unfortunately every trip so far we have had easterly winds which make fishing difficult on the day. Anglers have been catching cod 2 to 3lb area on all the trips we've done and the odd better pollock. We've tried the grounds to the North and grounds to the South with very little difference.
So today we decided to do something a bit different and with the anglers happily catching and releasing fish.
We decided to do a species hunt and see how many different species we could catch in a trip.
This was thoroughly enjoyed by all anglers and in total we had 11 species caught today.
The fish and shellfish we had aboard the boat were cod, pollock, pouting, coalfish, whiting, lessor spotted dogfish, dab, flounder, lobsters, velvet crab, edible crab,
We tried for many other species of flat fish and rays but unfortunately we just couldn't tempt one on. Great sport on light tackle and using different skills, tackle and locations to try and tempt another species. -

Photos from todays trip again some cracking fish inshore.
Small 4" shads seemed to be the preference today with white, orange yellow and red working the best.
And a extra bonus when steaming back we had bottle nose dolphins bow riding and leaping around the boat -

Some belting fish on todays offshore trip
Best cod today was 11lb but we had several good size fish including a belting pollock over 9lb
Baited feathers seemed to be working best today.
With wrecking tides this week hopefully we get some settled weather to keep going offshore but unfortunately we keep getting easterly spells at the moment. -

Not ideal conditions today with a fresh north westerly blowing nearly all of the trip
But the lads still managed to pull a good amount of fish aboard
Some good size cod and pollock as well as plenty of just size cod which were returened if they had a good chance of survival.
The mackerel seam to be finally well established but are patchy in places but we have finally seen several string fulls come aboard. -
