Report on-board PLAN B
Having been fishing in Norway and only getting back late Friday night put me up against it.. I had to get up at 0300 to get the boat ready.. luckily the bait man did not let me down.
Saturday a group managed a haul of around 15-20 skate up to 12lb and around 30 hounds, plus god knows how many dags.. sorry dogs.
Sunday fished a closer mark and had again 15-20 skate best one 10lb and only 3 hounds (ran out of crab) doggies still in big numbers and a load of whiting eating large ragworms meant for bass.
next week I am going bass hunting, should be good as the water is clearing and the crab are about in big numbers.... View Boats Page

Report on-board Razorbill 3
What a fantastic day out.
We were a bit early for our trip, but this was no problem to our skipper Stuart. We left as dawn was breaking and cruised for about 45 minutes before reaching our spot. Stuart was friendly, efficient and very knowledgeable as he patiently explained the required techniques for fishing. Most of us were complete novices so we appreciated the input. It only took about 30 minutes for the fish to start biting. My son Mark hooked his first ever dogfish and was elated. Not long after my twelve year old daughter got a large skate, she struggled to hold it for the photo! After that all of us hooked a variety of species and sizes. Whether you are an experienced angler or total newcomers like us I can't recommend this charter highly enough. We all had a fun and memorable day.
Many thanks Stuart. View Boats Page

Report on-board Gloria B11
Now the winter has finally passed the Spring fishing is picking up nicely.
The last few trips have produced much better fish counts, with Skate and Bass being the main target. 25 to 30 fish are now being caught off each trip and improving daily.
We have had Skate up to 14lb so far and Bass 9lb, all female Bass and Skate are being returned for future conservation.
This year looks set to be a much better year than in the past.
Tope and Smoothound fishing will be coming soon, so get your bookings in.
