Report on-board Ocean Warrior 3
The weather has restricted our fishing lately, but, we have managed to get out now. We have been going out to the deep water wrecks for the Pollock. There have been a few niced Pollock coming up now that the weather has calmed down a bit.

Chalky White had a nice Pollock of 15lb 8oz. It was caught on a sidewinder lure while we were drifting over a wreck offshore.
You can also check out some more pictures on our latest news page on the website below.
Looking forward to getting back out there on the next nice day.

First charter with the new boat today, what a pleasure to be belting along at 18kn on a glorious Sussex day. The crew make the day of course and having Mason, Robert, Dave, Peter, John & co. aboard was a real pleasure.
View Boats Page
Pollock was the plan and after a little searching around we were on them - best of the day this heavy set 17lber skilfully brought to the net by John.
If you want to get out to catch big fish on a big fast boat give me a call.
Best wishes

Well it's not great news I am afraid. We could fill the boat with Whiting (1/15 are keepers) so it's a numbers game on that front and confident I would send you home with a box of fish for the table if that's what your after...... they are fabulous eating.

We have turned toward wrecks and had mixed results depending on tide/water clarity with Pollock. Some excellent fish over the last 4 weeks in the 13-15lb class but it's a hit & miss affair.
Most positive news - in thick fog delivered the new Catamaran today for lift out, safety inspection & clean-up. An amazing boat with almost double the cruise speed and 3 times the space of the old one, exciting times lay ahead.

Report on-board Brigand
With inshore Cod fishing slower than expected we headed off to the wrecks in search of hard fighting Pollock and were not disappointed! As many were lost as landed taking repeated powerful dives into the wreck and taking baits so deep that they chomped through 30lb leaders. A great day out with great anglers onboard rounded off the year nicely.
View Boats Page
It's been a great year with Turbot, Bream, Brill, Bass, Cod, Conger and above all the wonderful people that it has been pleasure to have aboard Brigand, you have really made it a great year, thank you all.
Very excited about the arrival of the new boat in February. 10m Catamaran with twin 280hp engines and a genuine cruise speed of 16kn will make those distance Turbot & wreck marks accessible in most weathers and that will be the focus of 2017.
Availabilty is limited for Jan/Feb which looks like being peak wrecking period so get in touch if you want to be amongst it.

After what seems like an age Brigand was back fishing yesterday & today..... At last!
View Boats Page
Yesterday had Adam and co. Aboard, tough day with the wind shifts from S to N in such quick succession but they toughed it out and we moved around quite a bit thoughout the day. No Cod but plenty of Plaice, Dabs and some sizeable Whiting. Not as good as we are used to but all boats were struggling in those conditions.
Today out with good friends so plenty of laughs and Bass, Plaice, Dabs & Whiting kept us busy on the rods
Jan & Feb dates loaded which will be peak Cod season so don't leave it until the last minute. If you have a date in mind give me a call and I will do my best to adjust calendar and fit you in.
Best wishes
