    Report on-board Goldilocks


    I fished with Gwyn Andrews last week on board Goldilocks Charters and had one of the best days fishing for a long time.
    Nothing big but plenty of fish coming aboard all day. Lots of whiting dabs Huss mackrel, ECT
    Great skiper, and most helpful to some of the novice anglers on board I am an ex international boat angler
    so I only recommend top boats and skippers and this is one I highly recommend

    Report on-board Mistress

    Today on Mistress we had a mixed party which consisted of mainly novices, many of whom had never fished before.

    We worked ground today with mainly shads, and by the end of the day I was pleasantly surprised to see what we had caught. The rod average on the boat was easily over 10 fish per person, with many fish thrown back too. No big ones today unfortunately but the crew made up for it with numbers of fish.

    another great day afloat with a top bunch of people, well done everyone.

    Heres a pic of the lads and lasses with a few of their catch.

    Report on-board Mistress

    Another day wrecking today. Only three lads showed up this morning but I went to sea anyway. The day started slowly due to a fresh breeze behind the tide pushing us along at a fair old rate of knots! We managed a few fish until the tide eased, but nothing spectacular.

    Once the tide eased though it was a different story, I got the lads on bait and they were instantly into the Ling, with the odd Cod thown in for good measure.
    we had a couple of good hours that produced plenty of fish for everyone.

    Best angler today was regular lad Dave Nixon. He wont bait fish, he loves shadding, he persevered today despite only catching around half a dozen fish. The fish he did catch though were all stonkers! Not to mention the one he lost back into the wreck which I would imagine would have been into the 20's. his four best cod were 14lb 8oz, 12lb, 10lb and 8lb, Dave was delighted with his fish and also setting himself a new PB.

    pictured is Dave with his two best fish of the day

    Report on-board Mistress

    Glorious sunshine today from the start! Plenty of suntan lotion required!
    We still have small tides at the minute so wrecking was the order of the day.

    A stop at the Bell Buoy on the way out produced some mackerel bait for us so we set off on our way. The first wreck we got to, some of the lads were still in mackerel mode so down went feathers and found even more mackerel, some were only joeys so we popped them on as live baits and got instant results with Ling and Cod.

    We carried on fishing the wrecks all day, we had a few tussels with a dastardly seal that kept stealing fish (yes there were a few choice words muttered!)
    but all in all we had a fantastic day everyone had at least a box of fish to take home with them, the lads were returning fish through the day as they had caught enough.

    We had many fish onboard over 10lb today, the biggest Ling was 16lb, biggest Cod was 12lb.

    Local lad and regular aboard Mistress, Faron Trueman with the best Ling of the day
