Almost every trip produces one of those characters that you know your not going to forget in a hurry.  This is what happened to us when we were first joined on the boat by Martin Bignell.  Today he was making a return visit with a few of his friends and before the day started it was a given that it was going to be a laugh a minute.  Anyway the crew today were Martin , his boss Brian – Stuart and Mike -   Nigel, Neil, Darrell and taking the 8^th place on the boat was Sean.

Today saw some regular faces onboard along with a couple of new ones.  The wreck fishing has been up and down over the last couple of weeks and so today it was off to the wrecks that have been producing the best catches.  Fingers crossed that the fish are in the mood to play ball today and Grey Viking will return with some prime summer Cod today.

Things have been really busy so just a quick update with a few photos from todays trip.  A PB Cod for the organiser of todays crew.  It was a glorious flat sea today after we have had a few days of very high winds.  Read the rest of this entry »

As usual the crew phoned in last night to check that the weather was good to go to sea but after waking up and looking out of the window it was clear that the wind was blowing a lot stronger than had been forecast and the sea was white capping as far as the eye could see.  On went the computer to check the marine forecast again.  The wind was easing down and so we were still fine to go but we knew it was going to a bit of bumpy ride out to our first fishing mark with the sea state lessening as the day went on.

The sun was back out again today and we had a great day out at sea with some super Cod fishing.  We had headed out to the same wrecks we had been fishing just a couple of days before in the hope of finding a good catch.  It was fish with every drift right up until the last hour of the trip when the tide stopped running.

The crew today had requested a wreck fishing trip.  Although it was not an ideal tide we headed out in search of some prime summer Cod.  The crew had been briefed before hand as to the types of lure that were working the best and they set about getting rigged up as we travelled.

A 7.30am start saw us out fishing on the ground in glorious sunshine with a smashing group of lads.  Today we were looking for Bream and hoping to catch a Bass or two along the way.  Meet todays crew. Read the rest of this entry »

Today we were out wreck fishing and looking to catch some nice Cod.  The day was not a disappointment and despite a really slow morning the fishing really picked up in the afternoon and we saw some really nice fish landed. Read the rest of this entry »

After a few days off due to the sea state we were back out on the water today.  We still have a good tide for catching Bream so this was our target species for the day.  The crew all arrived in good time so we enjoyed a quick cuppa before heading out.  It was the perfect opportunity for known faces to meet new ones and get all their gear organised on board.  The crew today were a lovely mix with lads and lasses, experienced anglers and those giving it a go for the first time.
