Obviously stacey and I are still under house arrest along with the rest of the country. so no new fishing to report on yet. With this in mind I thought I would do a brief report on my fresh water fishing from last winter. Anybody who has fished with me and many who haven’t will…
Back in January we managed to sneak offshore for a day. Myself and several of the regular lads had been keen to head offshore for a couple of months and with the new boat to play with it made me all the more keen. I had been keeping an eye on the weather each time…
We got a few trips in before we had to stop running trips in line with government guidance. This report covers the last couple of trips as I forgot to take any pictures on one of them. The first day saw us leaving a little later than usual as Ian and the lads had a…
I have held back a few reports from before the lockdown to keep myself and you reminded of what we are missing. Hopefully reading them over the coming weeks will help you escape the boredom and pass some time as I hope it does for me. One of our last trips was a premier trip…
We headed out on a premier trip the other day with 7 people on board. The weather wasn’t perfect but we were able to find a bit of shelter first thing and even as the tide turned and the sea got up we were comfortable all day. The fishing started well and continued to produce…
We were lucky enough to get most of our trips out this week despite the seemingly relentless winds. The only trip cancelled was with rain forecast all day as well as a good breeze. I still offered to go but unsurprisingly only a couple of lads fancied it. The days when we have been out…
Russell and the lads hired the boat today between the 5 of them. They fished one rod each and had steady fishing throughout the day. There was a bit of breeze first thing but where we started was near flat calm. The breeze was forecast to decrease but it dint ease off until the end…
Had 7 lads on board today all on the hire gear and we snuck a day out in between the gales. It was bright and breezy but the wind was in the right direction for us to find some shelter in the river. We needed all of the shelter we could get for the first…
We’ve been lucky enough to get a couple of trtips in here and there despite the succession of storms rolling through. The weather has put a stop to the last couple of offshore trips but fishing inshore has made up for it. With such poor weather we havnt left the blackwater for a couple of…
Leon and the lads were booked on today, they were a little short on people so Stephen and Laura made up the numbers. We started off in the river as there was a bit of breeze first thing. We found a few roker of all sizes, lots of pin whiting and a dab by slack…
This week we have spent most of our time in the shelter of the estuary catching rays. We are so lucky the river has provided us with good numbers of roker to get the year started. Both days were steady with Sunday producing 22 roker with a boat full of hire rods. The sprats are…
We’ve still been getting some nice roker and good numbers for the time of year. Inshore roker have been the main fish showing as any round fish big enough are still feeding on the sprats which are abundant at the moment. When we fished further out last week leon found a little surprise amongst the…
