Weymouth Festival 2 New British Records

The past 2 weekends have seen the annual Weymouth shore and Boat festivals.

The shore festival was fished over the 17 -18th with good weather over both Days. The winner on both days was Dave Lane. He fished on a mark on Chesil beach to land a variety of species including Garfish, Mullet, Trigger Fish, Red Mullet, Scad, Black Bream, Pout, Dogfish and Wrasse.
He was accompanied with his 12yr old son James who won the junior section. James also managed to land a Skipper (looks lke a Garfish with a shorter beak) that was 9 1/2 oz. If verified it will break the current British record by over 2oz.

The Boat festival also produced another potential British record. This time by a lady angler. The fish again if verified is a Corkwing Wrasse weighing in just short of 1lb.

The boats produced some very nice Bass and Black Bream over the weekend.
Comercial bass boats have had fish upto 16 1/2lb this past week.

We are now coming into peak season in Weymouth for Bass both fom boat and shore.


I personaly have had a good couple of weeks fishing, adding a good number of species to my list including my first ever Trigger Fish. Pictures to follow shortly.
