    Report on-board Blue Moon

    I know on a charter boat that the crew are on board to catch fish but today i had an excess of Bass.!the fishbranged between 1 - 4 lbs but the numbers where off the scale. I didn’t have a crew so went solo. The Bass are thriving which is great news. All from fish where returned straiggt away and we will meet them in a few years!!!!

    Report on-board Spot On!

    With a decent run of good weather Spot On has been all over the place from fishing inshore on the skerries bank to deep water wrecks in search of conger to mid channel wrecking for cod and pollock along with the first trips to the Channel Islands.

    In May 2018 We have caught:
    Pollock to 16lb 8oz
    Ling to 27lb
    Cod to 13lb
    Turbot to 19lb 6oz
    Brill to 6lb 2oz
    Undulate Ray to 17lb 2oz
    Ballan wrasse to 5lb 4oz
    Conger eels to 70lb
    John Dory to 4lb 10oz
    Black bream to 3lb 10oz
    Plaice to 2lb 14oz

    As you can see there are some truly amazing catches of fish of lifetime let alone in just one month!

    Still some dates for 2018 and now taking bookings for 2019.

    Why not try Spot On, Brixham's and the south wests premier charter boat. I think you'd have a job to beat these types of catches anywhere else!

    Report on-board Blue Moon

    Had to move marks a couple of times yesterday but my crew worked their socks off. Finished the day with 50 fish including Brill, Undulate and Thonback Rays. Fair share of Doggies!!!! Aargh!!! Very foggy on the way back to Poole but fish where marking throughout the return journey and i think we’ve turned the corner and the summer species are at last here and feeding. Great day out and most enjoyable.

  • 20/05/2018 Fishing Report by Philip Higgins on Mistress Linda / San Gina3 (Poole, Dorset)

    20 May 2018 by Philip Higgins

    Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3

    Another busy week with plenty of good size Bream and Smoothhounds giving the rods a good bend, fishing all across the Poole Bay and Dancing Ledge marks we have covered the distance to find the fish, to the west plenty of signs and catches but the fish are very finnicky with more missed than landed and apart from a cracking 4lb Bream the rest have tended to be on the smaller side. The hounds have been fun with the biggest just touching 10lb not a big fish by some areas standards but good for our area. As a bonus a few Pollack to 5lb have graced our rods and provided much fun on light gear. This week our attention turns to what proved to be very illusive last winter COD, we are targeting them on some new areas to us thanks to some info from the commercial sector.

  • 05/2018 Fishing Report by Kevin Wyatt on Obsession (Mevagissey, Cornwall)

    May 2018 by Kevin Wyatt

    Report on-board Obsession

    Well May has started off very nicely, the weather has been on our side for most of the month so far and the fishing is improving all the time. The Mid channel wrecks have been producing some superb quality Pollock and Ling and now the Cod are starting to arrive. We have had 2 Anglers recently, John Nicholls and Jamie Lee Whitehouse achieving personal bests with a couple of fantastic Pollock well over the 20lb mark so well done guys.

    The Skerries have also been very fruitful and although the Plaice are not monsters we are averaging 50-60 per trip with most of them going back to fight another day, hopefully we will see them later in the year once they have managed to fatten themselves up.

    The fishing is getting very exciting as the year goes on, so why not give us a call to book yourself on Obsession and perhaps you too could catch a personal best fish !!!

    Call Kev on 07964 053347, or message us on facebook either through Obsession Brixham, Kevin Wyatt or Lee Williams. We look forward to hearing from you.

    On a last note, we would like to congratulate Lee Williams and his partner Debbie on the birth on their son Finley, another Obsession Brixham team member in the making.
