The boat is away at the moment, but for how long is anyone's guess. They sailed early Tuesday morning after the gale's over last weekend held us up.

The tail end of hurricane katia left us with a large swell running ashore in the early part of this week, but fortunatly the winds were only gale force. The weekend is looking unsettled again with strong northwest winds exspected saturday night into sunday.

It will be one of those wait and see forecasts, if the fishing remains good we'll carry on until our intended landed date of monday evening, if not we'll come in and land and get away when the wind eases.












The fishing has been fairly good of late with still a good showing of haddocks on the grounds, with the usaul monks, megs, lemons, whittings on the grounds. We havn't seen many john dorys of late, but we have started to see a few squids turning up.


The squids are a welcome boost to our trip this time of year and september is the month we usually start to see them amoungst our catch. The gurnards are starting to show as well in larger numbers.

The gurnards fetch a good price these days, especially the big tub gurnards which sell well in the local resturants.



I have to admit I do love squid, especially if it has been cooked well and served with a cillie sauce, there's litrally nothing quite like it







Cornish deep fried Squid just the way I like It.






So the boat should be landing either monday or tuesday, it's that time of year when we have to be flexible with our plans, but we'll keep you informed on the home page.
