Odyssey is ready to go for her first trip of the season in March and we can't wait.
Thanks to First4Fishing for a quick delivery
and great range of lures. Looking forward to seeing the Sidewinder Lures getting hammered by pollack and maybe a few bass.
We're all set for leads and lures, now on to shark rigs and chum! Pippa, the cocker spaniel, will be on hand for her expert taste testing.

Luke, on Ocean had a tricky day on the Tuna on Saturday π. 4 hooked up and 1 brought to the boat, whilst, Emma, on Odyssey fished the Hats and Barrels. Luke's not so great at photos so sorry, no Tuna photos this time. π€£
We spent Sunday together on The Smalls and Hat and Barrels bagging up some Pollock.
The crew did a top job of filling the toolbox with plenty returned for next time.
Damian almost had a surprise c5ft Tope which came to the surface for a taste of the Pollock being reeled in and David reeled in a lovely double figure Pollock.
Kudos to our top crews all weekend. π£π

... plus Tuna and Dolphins
Was great to escape to the Deeps yesterday to make the most of the weather window, and it didn't disappoint. The Deeps was full of activity with multiple pods of whales.
Josh and friend had a great time landing their first Tuna, 3 ranging from 250lb to 400lb. Great job! π
Back out tomorrow for some offshore reefing. π£

HAPPY NEW YEAR
This time last year we were ready to turn our passion into something more and it was so worth it.
2023 was a great first year of chartering, and we couldn't have made it without those who've supported us along the way.
Here's to a great 2024 and more great adventures on Odyssey.

Another busy few days out the deeps.
It's the time of year when you have to grab any chance you can get. With 3 shark virgins on board we were convert them which they did in style with some lovely blues, the best going 130-140lb and another at 100-110lb.
Two dropped Tuna and what was likely a nice Porgie lost at the side of boat added to the excitement and would of been the icing on the cake, but just means will try harder next time!
Second day was a more relaxed affair. Sadly our quarry evaded us, with very little bird life or dolphin life. We did have a bust very close to home but by the time we had got the rods back in the water they had become shy again. We still managed another 2 blues to just over 100lb to keep Jimmy Lemon bucket list ticking over.
Cant wait for the next weather to get back out there! It's been a busy season with some great catches, 2 porgies in the 350lb+ bracket (many, many other smaller ones), lost count of blues with plenty over the 100lb barrier, tuna to 540lb but still keen to get a few more before the end of the season! :D
Thanks to all those who were out with us, great to have you aboard :). Now, when can we get go again?! :D ...

Super BLUE weekend:
38 blues up to 120lb, with multiple fish over a ton.
Enjoyed the sight of a thresher jumping out of our slick, must have liked the fishy flapjack! π π¦ He was swimming around for about 20 mins but sadly we didnβt get a takeβ¦
And.. the tuna numbers are definitely increasing. Great to see the CHaRT Cymru boats getting on the fish. Looking forward to getting some time dedicated to the awesome BFT fishing we have on our doorstep.
3 shark virgins converted, new PBs for some, lots of laughs and smiles. Thanks to those who have been out with us, had a great time π
