  • 06/2020 Fishing Report by Mark Peters on DAWN TIDE II (Wallasea Island, Essex)

    Report on-board DAWN TIDE II

    Hope everyone is well
    I will be doing monthly fishing And info reports on my web site so keep an eye out please.
    But as you can tell the bass fishing has been fantastic The Last few weeks worm Baits and lures doing the business as you can see from the catch photos Some nice fish about but you do have to filter through the schoolies to get them
    The hounds fishing is good all the big females are inshore Pupping and the weed is a bit of a problem when hound fishing inshore but if you can fish through it you will get the fish.
    Had a few mackerel the other day but they just aren’t here in numbers yet, been some tope caught locally i will try to target them if anglers want too but they seem busy with the bass There are still plenty of skate off in the deeper water If you want them
    Stay safe everyone

    Its been nice to get afloat again after a couple of months under ‘house arrest’. It seems many of you are also keen to get afloat and although we cant take everybody we have at least been getting some of you out. So far we have only taken single person bookings and I must say I was very grateful for the support offered by some of our regular customers who were willing to hire the whole boat on their own. I understand this may be outside of many peoples budget so the good news is we are now taking groups of up to 5 for the rest of the month in line with current guidelines. Hopefully by next month we will be able to take more again as there is plenty of room on our catamaran.
    The first trip I did post lock down was just my self and my wife to blow the cobwebs away. The weather was glorious and the fishing was even better. We had a great mixed bag of smooth-hounds, bass, dogfish, dab, thorn-back ray and tub gurnard within the first couple of hours. After that we drifted through some bass with lures for a short while. I didn’t get much time to fish as stacey had string after string of decent bass several of which were 3-4lbs in weight. We anchored for the rest of the trip in search of some more big smooth-hounds. We weren’t disappointed as several packs of double figure fish made their way through as the evening progressed. We didn’t have any monsters but several were 13-14lbs. they were also interspersed with yet more bass and a couple more rays before we headed home. On our trips since then we have seen similar fishing and the biggest hound we have had so far is 18.8lbs. hopefully this will be beaten before the summer is over.
    To be honest I don’t have room for anybody before July and my diary is all over the place from then on depending upon what guidelines are relaxed so please bear with me.

    Hello everyone hope you are all well
    Just a lockdown update the charter industry is still battling with operating restrictions and no finical buisness support,
    On a positive note since fishing and watersports are allowed during This semi lockdown period i decided to nip out and Take the boat for a few runs And keeping her Maintained to Certificate standards as always Its no good letting them sit there rotting.
    It would have Been rude not to have a few hours fishing along the way And see whats going on out there ready for when we can all get back to normal,
    fishings good had plenty good size bass to 6lb, hounds Too 19lb and skate Too 12lb
    The weekend just gone was my twins 5th birthday took them on a family lockdown fishing trip was really great little trip Inshore good sport non stop smallish skate and hounds 10 minutes from the marina It kept them busy All day just what we all needed great memories,
    please keep and eye out for when lockdown gets lifted and try to book on asap as my diary is all over the place with 3 months Worth of trips being shifted about its all up in the air so please bare with me il do my best to get everyone afloat hopefully not to long now!
