The milder weather over the last week or two has had a positive effect on some of our fishing. if things get too cold then everything seems to stop feeding. At least this mild weather means there is no shortage of action aboard the boat. The lads can barely get through the whiting in places.…

December
The cold weather seems to have thinned out the dogfish inshore. this means the majority of our catches are made up with whiting now. There are some better ones mixed in the catches and still vast numbers of them eating just about any bait we can throw at them. On the right tides there are…
anyone for herring?
for those of you who are interested; Stacey’s Dad is catching plenty of herring at the moment. he will normally catch them to order so you can get them straight from the boat. £8 per stone is very little for the amount of work involved. if you would like any for the table of the…

Our general trips are ticking along nicely at the moment. We may have to set our sights lower than a few years ago during the winter but we can still have a rewarding day at sea. Most trips have still seen heaps of whiting around. Its often hard to get through them at times but…

looking back at this years bass season
As we come to the end of another great season chasing bass offshore It seems a good time for a round up of our trips. We had already enjoyed some good sessions on the bass as part of our tope trips in June and July. As the end of July approached and the tope moved…

Unsurprisingly there are still heaps of whiting and dogfish out there waiting for us. I honestly wouldn’t be too shocked if you could catch them on bear hooks right now! We have had several instances where two dogs or whiting have been caught on one hook! There are some better whiting amongst them too. The…

There may not be any cod to speak of but our general trips are still very productive inshore at the moment. Fishing is still ‘fish a chuck’ or there a bouts with heaps of whiting and dogfish most places interspersed with occasional roker to put a better bend in the rod. There are some better…
November
We have had a few more windy days since my last report. There may have been some calm ones in between but we need to be adaptable in order to make the most of any weather windows at this time of year. There are still vast amounts of whiting and dogfish inshore. Get in the…

October
Although we have nipped clear of the river a couple of times, it has been another blustery couple of weeks. These are the times when we are very grateful of the blackwater estuary, the shelter it provides and the fish we can catch. As we might expect the estuary is full of life at the…
