The Dreaded Weather! Reports and Prospects
This winter's cod season got off to a great start with more big cod getting caught than most can remember. The Bristol Channel is still alive with fish, but sport has slowed somewhat along the south coast. The constant wind has been a problem too. Keep up to date with what's being caught right now with our weekly catch reports and prospects in our news pages. We let you know what's being caught, including the latest 'off the wall' captures!
We also tell you what the prospects are for the weekend, including that all-important weather forecast! Take a look at the latest reports and prospects here
