Fishing Report by Bob Marshall
on Duke IV (Ramsgate, Kent)
9 Aug 2015 by Bob Marshall
Report on-board Duke IV
The Hounds are heading south now as they have finished the breeding process for this year, these are fit healthy fish that put up a hell of a struggle when you hook into one as my grandson found out the other day. Marley caught this 8lber on a lug/squid cocktail and was happy to release it.
Now is the time for large Bass, these fish can turn up anywhere, but l have some spots where they are more likely, fishing a bait large and tough enough to beat the doggies is the main ingredient to success along with patience, 10lb+ Bass are rare fish now, but with the increasing protection being given to them we may see a return to the numbers we used to get some years ago. All these big Bass are female so returning them is a good idea! Plenty of Mackerel so far this summer although the water has coloured up lately making them difficult to catch for bait, always bring some along just in case. The Skate fishing so far has been superb with plenty all this year, with most of them being released, particularly the females that we have landed to over 15lbs. Still dates available on Duke IV for individuals or whole boat bookings! Tight lines Bob

Report on-board Warrior II
Hi all, here we are well into August now the glory of the victory in the shark festival just a glowing memory !!
The sharking is on the whole very good with Steve Chivers had 3 days of the boat to himself and managed 16 sharks up to an est. 70lb which doesn't sound much until you realize they all came on 12lb test tackle !
My mate John Doswell brought 1 of his crews down the other week and his brother in law Roger qualified for the SACGB with a
very nice 110lb male Blue shark. Dave Bond on Mystique had a good male shark this week at 96"x 32" est 125lb
and said it put up a great scrap ! The weather in July has not been kind and have cancelled a lot of days .
The Reef fishing (not that I have done that much) has been Good with the boats still catching Cod ,Pollack, and some Cracking Ling. Lets hope we can have a spell of settled weather now and I can report some record breaking catches ! That's it for now, will keep you informed. Tight Lines, Pete View Boats Page

A month of superb fishing has passed since my last report, so busy and at last some better weather.
Plenty of bass now about with some enormous hounds and skate making me work hard with the net on a regular basis.
The green weed has been a nusance but if you perservere the fish are there and well worth the effort. View Boats Page
