Boat and Skipper Details
Ocean Runner is a brand new Catapult catamaran measuring 12m in length and boasting a beam of 5m, providing anglers with a spacious and very stable platform, even in the choppiest of seas. She is currently the newest addition to the angling charter fleet in Poole, comprehensively fitted out with ample rod storage, live bait tanks and a large bait station. Powered by twin 450hp Iveco's turbo diesel engines and a top speed of 28 knots, you can be assured that no time is wasted getting you to the fishing grounds, leaving you more time to fish. On board amenities includes an oven, hot water boiler for tea/coffees, hot and cold running fresh water, a microwave and fridge, easy accessible flushing electric toilet with sink and shower.
Fishing has been a passion of mine since the age of 8, having spent much of childhood on the water aboard my father's 32 ft Contessa. I purchased my own Dory at the age of 14 and in 2011, I purchased my first charter boat, a 30ft Berry boat. I then advanced onto a Bullet 38ft, which provided speed but not comfort when at anchor in a choppy sea, which is typically characteristic of monohulled boats. I decided I wanted a boat that provides much greater comfort for anglers when in a sea chop and in 2018 I took ownership of 'Ocean Runner' a Brand new Catapult catamaran, which is currently the newest addition to Poole's charter fleet.

Although, I did not charter with Ryan, we met yesterday. Standing on Poole Quay my wife dropped my car keys into the water! Ryan kindly offered to dive down in his scuba gear in between his charters. What can I say he found them, our hero for the day. Selflessly helping a stranger, just because he could, that says something about then guy in my opinion.

Fishing Report by Ryan Jones
27 Mar 2023 by Ryan Jones
Managed a day fishing inshore yesterday in pleasant conditions with a couple of Bream caught the first ones for 2023 which is a encouraging sign. Hopefully wont be long before they show up in numbers on our inshore reefs.
The Plaice fishing has started with few boated whilst fishing on the drift and is starting to shape up nicely. -

With the weather starting to improve the inshore Plaice fishing has got off to a awesome start with a great stamp of fish in quality condition. Yesterday saw us offshore anchoring with some decent sized congers and our first Tope of the year which is a good sign our summer species are just about to start and in the coming weeks hopefully we see the first of the Bream arrive on the inshore reefs.

Great start to our season with great plaice fishing to kick start off from Poole, with our best day being over 70+ fish landed with some quality fish for the table and majority returned to fight another day. With the weather getting better and the temperature slowly increasing we have had our first bream of the year and as of next week with the spring tides we should have plenty of bream to catch in the bay.

Some great bass fishing to be had on the big tides at the moment also with good numbers of bream about still. The plaice fishing has got off to a great start finding the bigger plaice in the deeper water banks.

some great fishing inshore to be had at the moment with the whiting being in very good numbers still catching decent rays and lots of congers. will be looking to go in search for the elusive cod in coming weeks fishing down towards the IOW.
