Wreck Fishing: For the more energetic and experienced angler, a day's fishing the many war wrecks off the South Coast promises catches of fine pollack, cod, ling, conger and Bass. These are usually taken when drifting the wrecks with artificial lures, red gills, jelly worms & shads. It can be heavy going but the rewards can be much greater.

Ground Fishing
It is recommended that those new to a rod, reel and line get to know their tools in a more controlled environment where the boat is stationary at anchor. The depth is probably no more than 35m so not so strong a tide & less weight is required. We fish on the seabed, which is generally rough broken ground or reef, where catches will include whiting, dogfish, ray, tope, Bull Huss, spur dog, smooth hounds and perhaps conger. Over the winter months the Cod move onto the ground so we fish for Cod this way.
Winter Cod Fishing on rough ground
We can carry a maximum of 12 Anglers but 10 is best.
Pollack weekend turns up trumps
Baits: During the summer months plenty of mackerel can be caught for bait on feathers outside of the Marina before venturing further off to the fishing grounds. This can be supplemented by frozen squid and lugworm purchased from the Tackle Box on the West Quay, just above the boat's berth in the Marina. Sometimes cuttlefish is available. Best artificial baits for pollock and cod are usually red gills, Jellies and perks, although different lures may produce good results. Experiment a bit!.
