    We have recently been catching some nice Conger with Cod and Pollock on the offshore wrecks.

    We have also had some good Ling up to 21lb - makes a great change to get some great weather to get offshore fishing.

    Report on-board Duke IV

    Sunday 22nd saw us heading North, starting the day feathering Mackerel for bait. Along with the macks came a Gurnard, the cloudy waters made the mackereling hard but we ended up with enough for bait so onto the roads for Smoothies, Whiting, Doggies and a nice Bass for Steve. another move to the sands for Skate and a lovely little Turbot with most fish returned by Davids crew from Herne Bay.
    Today we headed out to the wrecks where the building NE breeze caused the sea to pick up but the crew managed some tasty Cod before we were forced to head for shelter behind the Goodwin sands, stopping off for some Mackerel on the Falls bank. The fresh mackerel made for good bait with Olivia landing her first Bass and Sam landing a nice Hound. Not huge fish but certainly plenty of species around at the moment giving some interesting fishing!

    Finally, it looks like the weather has broken and we are having some fine fishing weather.

    Inshore we are still getting; Black Bream, Plaice, Dabs and Smooth-hounds. On the offshore wrecking we are still getting Cod, Pollack with the Congers and Black Bream just starting to show.

    We still have some spaces available during the week and weekends, so if you fancy a trip while the weather is good, give Dave a call...

    Report on-board Duke IV

    Despite the awful weather we are still getting out to the fish on Duke IV. We visited the wrecks yesterday in the small weather window and all the anglers caught fish, mostly Cod with a few Pollock and a single Bass for Andy who was visiting Kent from Australia. Chris who often fishes with us caught the biggest Cod of the day a touch over 10lb. Young Robbie who was suffering with seasickness due to the swelly conditions managed
    his first Cod, a fish around 6lb that could not resist the black n red jellyworm.
    Today with the weather much better than forcast we headed north with Gregs group on a corporate day. Plenty of fish were landed with the doggies being thick on the ground. Greg landed a School Bass followed by a nice Skate. The wind then picked up and we headed inshore where Darren landed two nice Bass, best being 5lb+ in concecutive casts on mackerel chunks. We headed further inshore for some Mackerel and a small Gurnard.
    Still spaces this Sunday and next Thursday 19th for individuals. Come to Ramsgate for some great fishing!

    Report on-board Skerry Belle

    As the evenings start to chill, and we start to loose the daylight hours, the only thing that is on our minds is cod fishing. (Well myn anyway lol.) And guess what Tom brings up-a nice bass. Still finding plenty of hounds, still getting a few skate on the Goodwins and some really good whiting. Going to really be targeting the cod now, so get yourself a good bucket of worms, and get yourself onboard the Bayside!
    Thanks to all,
    Roger. Skipper of Bayside.

  • 30/06/2012 Fishing Report by Bob Marshall on Duke IV (Ramsgate, Kent)

    30 Jun 2012 by Bob Marshall

    Report on-board Duke IV

    We are enjoying some fine fishing on Duke IV out from Ramsgate with some good Skate, Bass and Hounds inshore whilst out on the wrecks when we can get there we are landing plenty of Cod along with a sprinkling of Pollack. The wind is causing problems by stirring up the water, just as it clears from the last blow. This breaks up the Mackerel shoals making them difficult to catch for bait, the Skate and Bass much prefer fresh to frozen mackerel so always worth the effort to catch some.
    The Cod & Pollack seem to favour sandeel type lures on the wrecks greedily engulfing them so there must be plenty of fish competing for the baits. Last thursday gave us a weather window and we were able to get out there with a crew of individuals who had a great day landing fish all day with Steve landing a large Tub Gurnard that took his pirk and Danny landing a lovely dark Cod pictured.

  • 21/06/2012 Fishing Report by Gareth John on Hurricane (Isle of Sheppey, Kent)

    21 Jun 2012 by Gareth John

    Report on-board Hurricane

    The fishing has been very good with good bags of smoothound thornback rays and bass when the weather allows us to get to the marks.
    Also I have seen a few mackerel starting to show with a lot of bird activity which could also mean bass.
    My regulars just cannot get enough and return almost every week the only problem is the weather just seems to let us down most weekends which is frustrating because I know good fishing is to be had .
    The Medway has been producing a few bass mostly small but the odd good one with also dogs and whiting for mixed bags.
    Let's just hope summer returns and. The winds drop
    I will take small groups so don't worry about booking the whole boat because I love my fishing too and myself and my crewman will have a day out too
    Just give us a call

    Report on-board Duke IV

    Good shoals of Mackerel have arrived at Ramsgate, bringing their predators with them. We have had Tope and some cracking Bass with Will on an individuals day aboard Duke IV showing the way today with two nice Bass on consecutive casts on the old favourite lug tipped with a squid head.
    The weather has been playing games with us, one minute the suns out then claps of thunder and the heavens open.
    Along with the above we have been getting some good catches of Skate with Brians crew from London landing twenty between just four anglers. Some big Smoothounds around too although these fish, like the Bass, very mobile, here today gone tomorrow. Thats what keeps the fishing interesting, you never know whats gonna be on the end of the line, just keep an eye on the rod, these fish are quite capable of pulling the rod over the gunnels. Pic shows first timer, Will with the two Bass. Well done shipmate!

    Latest from Ocean Warrior 3

    June has started well with some nice Cod and Pollack showing on the wrecks, with the biggest this week from Mick Toomber with his at 21lb.

    Although, when the weather has not been so kind the inshore fishing has been good too with some nice Plaice and Black Bream coming up.

    Here's hoping for some good summer weather and some great fish to come...
