on Hard Labour (Wallasea Island, Essex)

Report on-board Hard Labour
With the forecast again not looking promising, we headed offshore in search of bass, hoping to nick the morning out there before conditions forced us from the offshore marks. In a little over an hour from leaving the marina we were fishing and although the seas were choppy, the fish were obliging. As the morning progressed the sea state worsened and at high tide we pulled the pick and punched our way back in through 6 to 8 ft breaking seas, to find some shelter.

We anchored a mark on the mouth of the river and again the fish were biting but only small hounds and the weed was becoming a problem. The decision was made to try something a little different for the last hour rather than tie her up early. so up came the anchor and off we went.
This time we set anchor in about 14ft on a dropping tide, with not a great deal of expectation from the mark, but from the off the bass were feeding. They were not big fish but there was plenty of them and mixed in were some keepers up to 3lb ish.
When we finally settled her on the moorings a good day was had by all, final tally was 40 plus bass, a lot of which came from the final mark, about 12 of which were kept, lots of small hounds to 6.5lb ish from the offshore mark, the ever present lsd, a few dabs and a solitary flounder.UPCOMING INDIVIDUAL SPACES ONBOARD Hard Labour

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Gary Hurling and his team from Boston Unity SAC joined us again the other day and what a day it was !
View Boats Page
The cod fishing here at Whitby is as good as it gets whether we are working inshore or distance at the moment.
We decided to start inshore and this is where we stayed for the day ( inshore being 2 miles off !! ) The lads all ending up with enough fish to keep them more than happy.
The mythological stories that the cod stocks in the North Sea are depleted are complete and utter ( excuse the pun ) "codswallop". Over the last 7 or 8 years the fishing here has become as prolific as ever.
Gary and the lads are pictured with just a few of their fish for the day.UPCOMING INDIVIDUAL SPACES ONBOARD Shy-Torque III

Another blinder today! we sailed early due to the weather forecast indicating it was going to blow up in the afternoon, it was well worth the effort! everyone onboard was ready to come in when i said we should, each had a full box of fish for just a few hours fishing, tied up again at 1pm! all caught on shads and light tackle.

All were caught on shads and light gear, great sport!

Hi all,
View Boats Page
Well here we go then - 1st Sharking trip today and how about an 80lb er (blue) to start us off !!!
The 6th of June is about the second earliest ever for me in almost 25yrs, could this herald another busting season ? Dave Keen should have had 4 days but only just got this one in before three days of gales - more trips cancelled !
Reef fishing is pretty good with some big ol Whiting and rod bending Pollack.
