There have been steady numbers of roker coming in over the last few weeks. There are still plenty of fighting fit spring males there and a few big girls mixed in too. With plenty of fish around we don’t have to worry about loosing many days to weather for a while. We have seen some…
You may have noticed that fuel prices have shot up at the pump somewhat, I can assure you this is nothing compared to what red has done in the last few weeks. We get our fuel in bulk from the distributers and over the course of the last few weeks red diesel has near on…
Its so nice to see numbers of decent fish coming aboard consistently again. Its amazing to think that just 3 weeks ago we were starting to see signs of life and now it feels like spring is full steam ahead. We have seen consistent numbers of roker inshore as we had hoped to by now.…
The storms have been and gone, the weather looks like it is going to be on its toes later this week and the fish are feeding again. Things are starting to look up again. We have managed to sneak out as the weather started to break and the roker, whiting and dogfish are well on…
Due to a succession of storms we havnt been able to do many trips this last week or so. Hopefully as these spring tides back off they will take the sprats with them and our spring fishing will get going. I’ve not got many pictures to show you but I have been getting plenty of…
There are signs of green shoots inshore at the moment although things are still slow going. I put a lot of it down to the large numbers of sprats that are hanging around. These should move off soon and as long as things remain mild then everything will kick off. We have still been finding…
I know some of you may have already seen this in Sea Angler magazine last year but I thought I would share this for those of you that missed it. Like many people our holiday plans for 2020 were scuppered due to the covid-19 pandemic. Although our plans were put on hold we were still…
There are heaps of Sprat about at the moment. They may have been late arriving but they have made up for it in numbers. The estuary is solid with them and further down isn’t much different. The only good news is they shouldn’t hang around too long now. The sprats have effected the fishing in…
As my Diary gradually fills up, I thought I would take a look back and remind you how good last years tope fishing was. Hopefully this will whet your appetite and may prompt one or two of you to get those last few dates filled up. Our first trip was a nice early one. I…
We have been fortunate enough to get a couple of trips out to make the most of this stunning January weather. There are still loads of whiting around, even in the river. Dabs seem to be hanging around too and the mild weather means the dogfish are still feeding. Although it has turned a little…
I thought I would use this time to take a look back and remind you of some of our spur dog trips last year. Unfortunately we only had the last 4-5 weeks or so of our spurdog season as we weren’t allowed to operate until after March 30th. I was a little concerned that we…
There are still plenty of fish to be caught out there, in places the whiting and dogfish are feeding well. There are still a few dabs about, Martin had a treble shot of them the other day. the dogfish feeding in numbers is a good sign for the roker too. we have still been finding…
There were still plenty of fish to be caught as we ended the year. The mild weather seemed to make the roker and dogfish feed again. These put a better bend in the rod between the whiting that seemed as hungry as ever. These kept us busy each day with double shots common for those…
