Fishing over the weekend was slow with WHITING and DOGFISH the main catch but there are reports of some boats landing COD up to 8lb offshore and numbers of CODLING inshore, The small tides made fishing for THORNBACKS slow , If you anchored on a patch with some on you would get them. With bigger tides this week i think we will see some more THOPRNBACKS caught, These tides should help with the COD fishing as they will move up on to there winter feeding grounds,

The weather was against us again last week, with only one trip out it's hard to say how the fishing is, We are starting to get some good numbers of larg WHITING, DOGFISH, DAB'S and i am glad to say most boats are starting to see one or two CODLING, As the tides drop away i think we will see more (if the weather let's us get out) over the next few weeks,

We did a full weekend of it on the 18th and 19th Septemeber and there was some lovely sizable Skate and Whiting caught. A few very good Smoothounds caught too!
Weather was not so kind with 25mph winds blowing but we persevered and had 2 very good days of it.
The Skate are now about in numbers and are very good sizable fish but they wont be around in another month as the early Cod will start and show anytime now.
All in all, a very nice weekend and 2 very happy sets of customers whom all went home with a good bag of fish each.
A big thanks to all who came along! View Boats Page

Another quick update on the recent fishing..
Bit of a mixed bag last few trips.. Dogfish have shown up in large numbers, we are catching about 30 per trip. The hounds have gone, the whiting have started showing and the bass are still about but only a few larger ones the majority are small bait robbers.
Skate are bit thin on the ground, but the ones that are caught are all larger ones.
Cod should show any time now.. cannot wait.
Here's my mate on a nice skate.. just under 10lb..
The wind was blowing hard NW but we hid behind a large sandbank and enjoyed the sunshine and flat calm conditions.. this is the beauty of the Thames Estuary. View Boats Page

Got a few minutes to spare - so time for a quick update on the fishing.
Had a patchy spell last month - August is always a bit quiet. Still managed a nice lot of good bass and hounds.
Had a competition on a wet and windy Friday a couple of weeks ago we had a good mix of fish, bass, hounds, tope, whiting, dogs, pouting and an eel. The following day we struggled to get a bite.. thats fishing !
Plenty of school bass about .. with the odd bigger one if you persevere.
The hounds are disappearing now and the cod will start to show any time soon, the big bass should be about and with the large set of tides this weekend I am expecting a return of the rod benders.. View Boats Page

Wednesday 12 august;
Bright sunny day and light winds, First stop was to get some MACKEREL as bait ( and for the BBQ later) The first mark we stopped at was not full of fish, in fact we had one bite. So off we went to a deadcert mark.......... well it should have been a deadcert!!! Off we went again, Third time lucky. As soon as the baits were in we started to get bites, DOGFISH to start then the first of a dozen THORNBACKS and some SMOOTHOUNDS, View Boats Page
