Report on-board Brigand
Made the best of poor weather today by getting out for some mackerel which is now filleted and wrapped in 5kg packs in the freezer ready for you to use..... Like all things on Brigand it is free ��
Always bring a pack of this versatile bait along on our trips as a standby in one of our cool boxes packed with flaked ice.....don't like to waste precious fishing time when they are scarce.
Best wishes
Steve

Report on-board Duke IV
The Belgium fiching club are back in Ramsgate fishing aboard Duke IV, a slow start but after a move to a rough piece of ground Henriec landed a fine Bass of 9lb 12oz on a large mackerel fillet. Joule quickly followed this with a Starry Smoothound of 6lb 8oz, Luke landed a 6lb Bass and Derrick finished the day with a 7lb Hounds. A good start to the week's fishing with plenty of Doggies which are a delicacy back in Belgium so can't go wrong today. Pic shows today's catch

Report on-board Kelley's Hero Charters
We have had a busy week this week, mackerel trips, wrecking and inshore trips.
Firstly, what a pleasant surprise it was waking up to find some mackerel at the beginning of the week. We headed out of the harbor and literally ran straight into them before we could even get into deeper water. They were bubbling on the surface and the birds were going mad. The shoals around us were absolutely amazing to see. We haven't seen this for a good few years.
Thursday's weather wasn't looking great in the afternoon, so we decided that we would have an early start, we left the marina at 0630. Once we got out of the harbor, it didn't look that nice on the horizon, so we headed straight for shelter. The first thing we did was drift for some fresh mackerel to use as bait, after about half an hour we had a bucket full of bait and table fish. We put the anchor down and the first fish we had in 10 minutes was a bass of around 3lb. Over the duration of the day we had another 2 bass (the biggest of 5lb), and 16 undulate rays (biggest being 16.5lb). We headed back in with the weather getting worse, having had a great day. But being a charter boat we have to take the rough with the smooth. We had a great day fishing, but the downside was we lost our anchor. So off we went and had to buy a new anchor, chain and rope :-(.
Saturday we headed mid channel, to try and find some of the late pollack and cod off of the wrecks, it certainly was hard work. We tried wreck after wreck, and were begining to lost sight of our goal. Eventually we managed to find a wreck, that produced some nice cuckoo wrasse, pollack, and a nice ling. We ended the day with a bit of drifting for bass, and had around 7 or 8, the biggest being 7lb+. The weather chopped up a little bit so we had to head inshore sooner than expected. After the 110 miles we did, the net around the prop we had and the weather that came up, we were glad to get back in and head to the bar. Still a good day had by all.
Sunday we had another inshore trip. This started very slow, even though we did have a couple of good bites and fish that came off half way up. We moved and waited for the tide to get away. Im glad we did, as we managed to find some smoothounds, undulate rays, and spotted rays. We did have some fresh mackerel to start with so that helped in finding the fish. The weather picked up again in the afternoon as they said it would. So again we had to head for shelter and try and find some more mackerel to take back in with us for dinner. As it was still pretty much slack tide, we didn't find too many. However after quite an eventful week, Kelleys Hero is back in for a rest for one day, and back out again on Tuesday.
So apart from a bit of hard work, a few glitches in the plan, a great week was had!

Report on-board Amatheia
Well the mackerel are here, that is on some of the wrecks.
The day started hard with things being a little slow other than the mackerel coming in, in good numbers some for bait and some for John's bbq and the rest frozen down for another day.
Along with the the mackerel some nice sized pollock one of which was more than likely picked up by a shark in mid water which Danielle held onto until the bite off and to add to that, we believe we lost another pollock on a different wreck to a seal, who just before the take had shown itself by the boat which Ryan held on to until the line gave in against the fight.
