View Boats Page
of fish around the 4Ib mark. Bream are patchy but they are being caught on Malaki we managed a total bag
of 29 a couple of days ago with fish to 3Ib, Fair play to the guys they put over half back. The very next day
we hit the smoothound upto 12.2Ibs. The early signs are good so perhaps there be plenty of tight lines
out there this year.
The Picture opposite - Benn Watts a very keen young angler who in my opinion has the potential to become a world class angler thats if girls, racing bikes, etc. don't get in way, let's hope he gets his prioritys in order. -

Fishing Report by Bob Marshall
on Duke IV (Ramsgate, Kent)

Report on-board Duke IV
Spring has brought some good fishing to Ramsgate! We still have some quality Cod inshore, also a fair spring run of Codling! Paul from Welling landed a fine Cod of l5lb l2oz aboard Duke IV.

The Skate are making an appearance with good numbers available. Ian landed an 8lb'er and Courtney who came along with her dad on an individuals day aboard Duke IV showed how its done with a Skate and Doggies!
We made our first visit to the wrecks when Sea Angler mag, Shane Pullen and crew turned up to shoot some film for his next fishing video.
Some of the wrecks were quiet with only the odd fish, move on to another wreck and the Cod along with a few Pollack were feeding well on the shad and Sukuma redgill lures we offered!
Ginters group from Barking Essex had a good day out on Duke IV with some nice Thornback Ray and Whiting, also catching our first Smoothound of the year!
Herring is a favoured bait for the Thornies and will also catch the odd Cod and the Whiting love it!
Remember the Rays are here to breed so take care with them and please return the females. These fish are slow growing and don't mature until at least 7 years old and only lay a small number of purse type eggs, so our future sport relies on a good return from these fantastic fish!
The fishing should continue to improve as the water warms, bringing in the Bass and Smoothounds. Skate numbers should peak in May with the Mackerel arriving inshore in June! Still dates available for groups & individuals on Duke IV so please email or call me for more information! Tight lines, Bob. -

Report on-board Emma Jayne
Fantastic day out plaice fishing on Emma Jayne ( a fantastic stable, fast moving platform ideal for angling) with Colin 'Scooby' Cooter this Saturday. We left Selsey at lunchtime for some mussel grounds near West Head. Drifting back and forth with the flood tide working large ragworm we had a great afternoon's sport catching good size plaice and a few dabs.

A fine day to be at sea today and some lovely big Cod around Ramsgate at the moment. Paul from Welling Kent caught this cracker at 15lb 12oz on the old favorite lug/squid cocktail fishing on Duke IV. Along with the Cod some quality Thornback Ray around so it looks like summer is just around the corner.

We are very busy this year with new customers it must be that they have heard about the 'SAUSAGE SANNIES' we supply and the 'ABUNDANCE' of tea they get aswell as' FISH' too or they have seen and smelt from other boats nearby.
