There have been a few bass and some better hounds showing along with the smaller fish over the last week. No huge bass but more hounds around the double figures are starting to show. Yes Barry has been catching a few again as have the others like Dave, Stephen, leon and Matt. Both of these will be our main target for our general trips for the next few weeks and I have availability if you want to join us for a general trip or even offshore trip.

On Friday we had the latest round of the Friday Species League. Unfortunately there was a very strong north westerly wind combined with small ebbing tide all day which made the fishing very difficult, still managed 15 species between the 2 boats including plenty of Bream and at last a few nice Plaice. Top 3 on each boat where
Piscary
1st Ray Barron 183
2nd Perry Dack 172
3rd Darren Phillips 158.
Ocean Runner
1st Steve Bachelor 162
2nd Steve Lodge 137
3rd Alan Bird 100
Next it was the Kings Arms Southampton, after such a good day on Friday they decided to venture offshore, unfortunately the north east wind and stronger tides made it difficult fishing, again they did catch a few but not as good as Friday ended up with 12 Species. Top in the points were
Ed Taylor 206
Paul Hollyoake 177
Richard Dicky Day 155.
Just like to remind all match anglers that if you intend fishing the Poole species hunt please get your entries in as soon as possible.UPCOMING INDIVIDUAL SPACES ONBOARD Piscary

It was lovely seeing the Elliston family for their first trip of the year. We had a short evening trip and caught loads of fish. Of course dogfish made up most of the catch along with 6 thornback rays and a few small hounds. I have availability for 4 hour trips and full day trips over the coming weeks so please get in touch for more information.

Report on-board Braveheart II
In March we saw the arrival of some early smoothounds and bass aboard BRAVEHEARTII and everyone knows how much I like these hard fighting fish. As we have progressed into april
View Boats Page
The wind had been relentless, but when we have been able to get out to our chosen marks the fishing has been generally good. We've had smoothounds up to 13lb so far and bass to over 6lb & the bigger ones normally follow at the end of April and beginning of may.
Thornback rays have been on the increase too which is a great sign and when located can provide excellent sport
On the days of smaller tides, the anglers have scaled down the tackle for species hunting which include, bass,smoothounds, lesser spotted dogfish, dabs
Thornback rays, whiting, eels and flounders. These days can be great fun and a good bit of friendly competition amoungst the anglers. I'm really looking forward to the summer and meeting anglers old and new.
Don't hesitate to call for enquiries and booking.
All the best & tight lines

The bass are in! Last week on these spring tides the bass have been feeding heavily on the fresh crab. Bass to 9.5lb; hounds to 16lb and rays and to 20lb. With summer only around the corner fishing should only be getting better and better. £60pp will provide you with everything you need for a days fishing. For more details please contact us

Steve had a nice mixed bag aboard Galloper the other day. Hounds, roker and bass not to mention the occasional dogfish as well! He was really hoping for that bass and was relieved when this one hit the net after loosing one on the previous cast! There's certainly plenty of life out there at the moment and things look promising for the summer ahead.
