An interesting week before wind stopped play - the banks have started to come alive and plenty of variety out there, best day we boated 14 Turbot, also lost the biggest Tub Gurnard we have ever seen at the net (est. at around 7lb) and the first ever Monkfish we have landed. Only a tiddler and safety returned but great to see such a unique fish. Our jumbo Mackerel have been present in numbers, 45cm has not been unusual on last weeks trips and at that size a tremendous fish for the table.
We have had to cancel our plans to fish our way over to France this weekEnd but still have 3 more scheduled for 2020 so fingers crossed Weather will be kinder to us on those. -

Super day out in the Channel again today. Slated as a Turbot day but conditions really not suited. We did have a small window and managed to bag a couple of Flatties off the bank in the hour set aside - the rest of the day was all about wrecking. Some more beautiful Cod and Pollock and decent size Tub and Bass as a bonus.
Great bunch of guys who made the day fly past.
Best wishes

Yet another stunning day out in the Channel with yet another great bunch of guys.
Nigel Holt was king of wrecks with 7 good Pollock and a Cod to go with his Turbot and Colin topped the Turbot stakes with 3 to go with his Pollock.
We’re spoilt for choice on the fishing front currently and we decided that we would try a bit of Turbot with our wrecking. All target species captured and the Mackerel are also proving much more reliable with strings coming up thick and fast.
A real pleasure fishing with limited numbers and great to see such a great variety of high quality Summer fish.
Best wishes

Well they just keep coming! In the last weeks fishing we have been catching Brill & Turbot on the the offshore banks and Cod and Pollock off of the wrecks. On some days we have had Brill, Turbot, Cod and Pollock all in the same day; a rare treat indeed.
It has not always been the easiest of fishing and we have had to steam quite a way to get the better quality fish but it has been well worth it.
It really is pleasing to see more Cod being caught on the wrecks that we have been fishing and often they outnumber the Pollock.
I don’t anticipate the Cod fishing remaining this good for too much longer so if that’s what you after get in touch.
Best wishes

We are at the cross over period where it’s possible to catch everything from Bream and Plaice inshore to Brill, Tubrbot, Pollock and Cod Offshore - a spectacular time of year and the biggest decision is choosing which to catch...... a wonderful dilemma.

More Turbot offshore and a few Pollock and Cod on the trip home - not an easy day but some lovely fish.

Great day offshore on the Turbot today. Some fantastic fish boated including Turbot (of course!), Brill, Pollock, whiting and some very decent mackerel.
Great to be back out in the deeps and targeting these magnificent fish.

Weather has not been kind to us of late here on the South Coast but when we have managed to get out we have been having some cracking Pollock off of the wrecks to over 17lb. Average weights are up on last 2 seasons with double figure fish being far more common than single figure ones.
Great sport which will continue through until March when we prepare for Black Bream fishing inshore. Last year was fantastic with catches of 100 fish per day not uncommon and up to 4lb in weight.
Check us out on Facebook (Brigandbrighton) and if you want to get amongst the action you can book directly through this site.
Best wishes & tight lines -

The excellent run of Turbot & Brill has continued throughout the Summer and we continue to see up to 40 fish/day being boated. With a few Cod appearing inshore we will soon be focusing our attention on them as we build toward the wrecking season.
