2010 SEASON BEGINS

TOUCH WOOD THE SEASON HAS GOT OFF TO A FLYING START .SINCE THE FIRST TRIP ON 16TH OF MAY WHEN THE CATCH WAS AROUND 90 CODLING RANGING UPTO 4LB. THE TRIP ON THE 21ST SAW THE CREW CATCHING ALL THE FISH THEY COULD HANDLE WITH 2HRS TO SPARE !! SO THEY OPTED FOR A SCENIC CRUISE AROUND THE FARNE ISLANDS TO END THE DAY.
ON THE 26TH WE HAD THE FIRST OF THE NORTHUMBRIA POLICE COMPS WHICH EVEN IN DIFFICULT CONDITIONS WITH A STRONG TIDE AND NE WINDS WE MANAGED TO LAND ALMOST 140 KEEPABLE COD WITH THE AVERAGE AROUND 2,5LB AND UPTO 6LB. RECENT REPORTS ARE COMING IN OF THE FIRST MACKEREL BEEN CAUGHT IN THE AREA AND IT WONT BE LONG UNTIL WE START TO GET A FEW LING. FINGERS CROSSED THE WEATER HOLDS AND THE FISH KEEP COMING.
TIGHT LINES.

MID AUGUST UPDATE

THING ARE STILL LOOKING GOOD. THE KIDS ARE HAVING SOME REAL FUN WITH THE MACKEREL ON OUR 3HR TRIPS WHICH WE'LL BE RUNNING UNTIL MID SEPTEMBER. THE CODLING HAVE BEEN CATCHING WELL WITH 60 - 70 A DAY BEEN THE NORM FOR A 6HR CLUB TRIP .NO REALLY BIG FISH AS YET BUT SOME NICE 5 - 6 LBERS BEEN CAUGHT MOST TRIPS.
ONE OF OUR REGULARS WHO HAS PERSEVERED ON SEVERAL TRIPS WHILE THOSE AROUND HIM LANDED PLENTY OF FISH FINALLY CAME GOOD AND HAD A FEW CODLING LAST TIME OUT.
WELL DONE PAUL!!
