    Report on-board Braveheart II

    Happy, and heath new year to all my customers, friends and fellow angler's. BRAVEHEARTII was lifted yesterday and will be out of the water for maintenance and upgrades until early March when the season begins and we see thornback rays moving inshore and the first of the summer species, we had our first smoothound on the 6th of march last year, a nice specimen of 14lb along with several smaller ones.
    For BRAVEHEART'S last trip of the year, We did a 5hr fundraising trip for H.A.R.P Southend-on-Sea's homeless charity and through the generosity of the angler's, raised £450 along with an donation of 20 fleece lined beanie hats and snoods. It was a great way to end the season and for a fantastic cause. Unfortunately the cod never showed last year, but every year is different so we may see a few in the spring with any luck.
    I look forward to welcoming anglers old and new this year. BRAVEHEARTII is fully licenced and insured for 7 angler's and specialise in smaller parties, often taking groups of 2 or 3 angler's who charter the whole boat for themselves along with family day outs, which has proven to be very popular.

    wishing everyone tight lines

    And look forward to welcoming you aboard in the spring
