Fishing Report by Bob Marshall
on Duke IV (Ramsgate, Kent)
3 Dec 2014 by Bob Marshall
Report on-board Duke IV
Plenty of fish out of Ramsgate for now with Whiting, Doggies, Skate and Codling, still around are Bass and Smoothounds. Lots of bait needed as these fish are hungry.
Chris' group had a good day on Saturday with 8 Skate to 9lb along with lots of Whiting to 2lb Codling, Bass and a small Hound.
December through January is the time for better Cod so big baits of squid or cuttle are worth trying, dont forget the herring though as the Skate will stay around throughout the winter.
Wrap up warm, bring plenty of bait and enjoy a days fishing with plenty of fish although not all as large as we would like.
Pic shows Chris' group Saturday.

Fishing Report by Scott Belbin
on Galloper (Brightlingsea, Essex)

Report on-board Galloper
November 2014
Its been a while since my last report on CBUK but its been a busy few months aboard the ‘Galloper’. Autumn has been kind to us with loads of codling about to provide us with great sport and all on our door step. The river blackwater has often fished as well or better than marks further afield with loads of codling and whiting coming out along with thornback rays and other bits and bobs. The numbers of codling have been the best I’ve ever seen in there which can only be a good thing. With the fishing being so good in the shelter of the estuary we have lost very few days to bad weather. That’s a bonus to our customers saving them from having to re-organise several anglers to another date that suits them. Its not many ports that can provide catches of 30-60 codling a trip in conditions that force many poor souls to cancel.
We haven’t spent all of our time in the river though and when we get further afield there are still numbers of rays showing. This isn’t uncommon nowadays and is helped by the mild weather. I will also add that I think the mild weather doesn’t have a negative effect on the cod fishing. This seasons numbers prove that to my mind with a mild autumn and great numbers of fish about.
Even further offshore has been a bit of a dogfest so far but our last trip was a little more promising and all credit to those who keep putting the effort in as that’s the best way to get results. I have a few spaces on various trips before the new year and plenty available in 2015 for more information, available dates or regular reports please visit my website. www.essexseafishing.co.uk View Boats Page

Fishing Report by Ross Parham
on Spot On! (Brixham, Devon)
Nov 2014 by Ross Parham
Report on-board Spot On!
After a couple of weeks break to allow time to spend with the new arrival to my family I was happy to get back to Sea to do the last couple of trips for 2014 as the boat is now out of the water for her annual scrub and tidy up ready and primed for the 2015 season.
The fishing on the trips were good with plenty of Pollock and some drifts taking 11 Pollock to 9 rods with everyone in at the same time, this made me very busy and not able to take many pictures but I did my best.
Average size was around 5/8lb mark but with some nice double figured ones in the mix, other catches were a number of small Bass, a few Cod and a ling along with a late mackerel and plenty of pouting.
I would like to thank you all who have come on board Spot On this year and look forward to many more trips with you all in 2015 and supporting Brixham and Spot On.
Remember there is only one Spot On in Brixham and is the only boat to consistently bring you great results and catches that other boats simply dream of, just look at the others for yourself.
Just look at the gallery and see this years catches and find another boat who can match it!
Pictured is Marcin with his fine November Pollock of 15lb 2oz.

Fishing Report by Lyle Stantiford
on Supanova II (Weymouth, Dorset)
Nov 2014 by Lyle Stantiford
Report on-board Supanova II
Well the weather has started to become a bit of a pain with a high number of trips being cancelled. But then again it is the norm for this time of year.
When we have been out when the weather has let us the main focus has been bass with some amazing catches and other hard ground results. Good numbers of Whiting are starting to feature along with the odd Cod, conger, blonde, undulate and Spotted rays have made things variable. The shock has been the late staying bream, it is December next week and as recently as yesterday we were catching bream in numbers like the summer!!!
A few trips left for the year now and we will be operating between christmas and New Year so if you fancy a day away from it all then gives us a shout.
Thanks to all for their continued support to Weymouth as ever.
