Report on-board Yorkshire Lass II
Managed to get three small groups of regulars together for a short notice 6 hour trip. Conditions were perfect so decided to fish the inshore rough ground. Fish came in steady right from the off ending the day with 70 cod upto 6lbs, a few pollock and one ling. Great sport when you consider we were only fishing in between 20 and 50 feet of water. Well done lads. See you again soon.

May Delights !
View Boats Page
Although the weather has been `changeable`, we have still found some great fish lately.
May was a great success even though we had strong North Easterly winds, The rest of the portrush Charter Boats stayed in port for practically the full month but we saw the opportunity for some great fishing and it paid off-
we caught a beautiful 19 lb Bull Huss from Culdaff Bay, along with loads Spurdogs all 6- 14.5lb, some codling and a nice blonde ray!
Our evening mackerel trips over the month of may were productive, great to see lots enthusiastic novice anglers entering our sport!
On the odd days when it has been calm enough to push offshore we have had great results, our wrecking trips produced Quality fish, mainly pollock with a few ling and swarms of coalie

Seren y Mor is now back in the water fishing after an engine refit over the winter. The May weed is now showing signs of clearing here and on Sunday we had our first good catch of Mackerel. The Smoothounds are now present in good numbers and the Tope are due at anytime.

At last, more than a week of largely settled weather, with only one hiccup really, last Saturday when an easterly blow curtailed any thoughts of venturing out. We've had a few angling trips and potting days. Mackerel are still very patchy, although we did have a couple of dozen on Sunday. The normal May algal bloom has been at its height the last couple of weeks which affects the fishing adversely, notably inshore. The algal bloom happens every year and is vital for the sustainability of the whole marine ecosystem. Most species time their spawnings with the algal bloom, which provides the lowest link in the marine food chain. So even though fishing can be difficult during the bloom it is of benefit to us for the rest of the year.
There are plenty of small whiting and dabs inshore, with an odd small codling and tub gurnard mixed in. The odd bull huss, ray and plenty of dogfish too.
The water is far clearer and free of algae offshore and a trip to the offshore wrecks today resulted in a great day's fishing with cod, pollack and coalfish. The best cod was about 6lb, pollack 7lb and coalfish 4lb. Fishing very steady on the ebb tide but unfortunately the fish went off the feed on the flood. Its the most cod I have seen for a few years, we must have had 30 or 40. Weather was good too, flat calm all day.
The algae will decline over the next couple of weeks and hopefully the mackerel will turn up in numbers. Once that happens fishing over the whole spectrum should improve. Over the last few years we have had a good run of inshore Tope from about the third week in June onwards, for around three weeks. Hopefully it occurs again this year as the best tope we had last year was 44lb.
We have room on various trips at the moment including an offshore wrecking trip on the 13th June with a similar itinerary to today. They are all listed in the trips update page on my website www.sea-fishing-trips.co.uk
