  • 05/2016 Fishing Report by LESTER BAKER on Seawatch1 (Brightlingsea, Essex)

    May 2016 by LESTER BAKER

    Report on-board Seawatch1

    Although already well documented by other boats in our area at last there is something to report that does not include the plague of Thornback rays we have had in the Thames estuary for the last eight weeks.Joking apart the ray fishing has been spectacular again this spring with 50 fish normal and a hundred plus not that unusual, best baits have been squid and herring with the herring having the edge on most days.As most of you know the spring cod run was a non event in our area this year so the rays provided some very welcome sport for our anglers.
    The last week or two has seen the weather warming up and the summer species have started to feature more in the daily catches with some excellent Bass and Hounds,no monsters yet on Seawatch but several bass to low doubles on worm and peeler baits and some medium hounds up to 12lbs on hermit crabs and squid, one of the Bradwell boats reporting some larger hounds slightly further offshore so they are on the way..
    There have also been some reports in the last few days of some early Mackerel which everyone enjoys catching and will hopefully help with bait for the Tope trips we have booked next month.
    All in all a great time to be fishing in the Thames estuary with some great mixed fishing on offer.
    Good fishing and all the best,Lester

  • 23/05/2016 Fishing Report by Colin Penny on Flamer IV (Weymouth, Dorset)

    23 May 2016 by Colin Penny

    Report on-board Flamer IV

    Alun Evans,Mike Davis,Gary Broome, Steve and John traveled from Wales and joined Flamer IV with some like minded individuals for a Two Day Angling Break. They did a Reef/Bank Day and a Wrecking Day and caught species that included Turbot,Brill,Cod,Pollack,Ling,Rays,Whiting etc.They enjoyed the trip so much they are looking to book for 2017. Pictured is Gary Broome with a 12Ib 13oz Cod.

    Weymouth Angling Breaks -
    A few days away fishing out of Weymouth along with the social side is a nice trip to do.The variety of fishing and the amount of different species caught at Weymouth is probably second to none.There are plenty of places to stay which are angler friendly and some excellent places to wine and dine around the harbour and in Weymouth Town centre.
    If you want to try a Weymouth Angling Break then contact me, I cater for whole boat charters and individuals.
    Planning your trip well in advance is essential you need to arrange your boat booking and your accommodation as early as possible to avoid disappointment, some of my regular groups plan their trips at least 12 months in advance, this allows them to discuss with me the best tides for the type of fishing they are targeting.

    Report on-board Yellowfin

    After refitting the boat out with new engines giving the boat a top speed of 25 knots, and new layout of cabin and deck, the boat now has a island cabin so you can fish from all sides of the boat. In front of the cabin lots of room for up tide fishing, seats and rod holders for all on the boat. A side door and stern door for walk on or wheel chair use. Fishing so far this year we have been catching Bream, Rays, Bass, & Pollack and more .
    Pictured here is a group with Pollack caught off a wreck. As the water warms up the Mackerel have started
    to show, we will be fishing for Turbot, Brill,& rays on the ground and fishing wrecks at anchor for Conger, Ling,
    bream, & Pollack, some weekend dates available and week days, and in the summer 4 hour evening trips for
    Mackerel and bream fishing.
