Charter Boats UK

Great day out, fish from the start including a couple of double figure cod. Tony the skipper knows where to find the fish !!

First time boat fishing for my son, it felt like the first time for me also.
But Tony, the skipper, took great care of us !!
The boat is spacious and clean. Extra tackle available, if like me, you find every snag in the North Sea.
The skipper put us on the fish time and time again, cod, mackerel, pouting, whiting a long and a herring we’re all caught by the fishers and it’s all thanks to Tony.
I kept overhearing on the radio from time to time, other boats asking if anyone is catching. I don’t know if this was commercial of charter boat skippers, but we didn’t have to worry about that. This made me smile and made my sons day !!!
Thanks Tony !!!!

Took my two sons out aged 9 and 11. Had an amazing experience catching lots of mackerel and cod. Tony shared his wealth of experience and skills with the boys and was very patient with it. Absolutely priceless in my opinion!

Great half day fishing. We went as a family and had a fantastic day out on the sea. Came back with loads of mackerel and also some cod and herring. We feasted well this evening!
Tony was incredibly helpful, relaxed and friendly. V patient with our bungling attempts to set fishing rigs and was a great tutor, both for adults and kids. His boat handling skills were great and we felt v safe on the water with our 9 year old daughter.
Can’t recommend enough.

Excellent trip, as usual. Plenty of fish, Mackerel, Cod, Dab, Ling, Herring, Coley, whiting and Pouting!
Great skipper. put us on fish every drift. we've been out with Tony many times, it wont be long until we book again!

I was looking for a new, fun experience to do together with my teenage boys this summer holidays and came up with the idea of a sea fishing trip. After some online searching and comparing, we booked a fishing trip aboard "Mistress" with skipper Tony Avis, which represented good value for money. As we had never done this kind of thing before, we weren't quite sure what to expect. Well, our fishing trip with Tony exceeded all our expectations! The boat is sturdy & well maintained and Tony is clearly a very experienced seaman. He showed us all (inc Dad) how to prepare the fishing lines, keep them untangled etc. and was fantastic with the boys from start to finish! We came back with a generous catch of cod, and more mackarel than we could eat! (Obviously, this also depends on fishing conditions.) All said and done, we ALL really enjoyed our fishing trip with Tony and would highly recommend him for anyone looking for an authentic sea fishing experience!

Another fantastic fishing trip. Plenty of fish caught and some great sport.
I'll be booking again soon :-)

Excellent fishing trip. For several years now I have taken my junior fishing club members on The Mistress. They always have a wonderful experience, and love taking their fish home. Tony knows his stuff, took us over fish all the time. Really helpful, especially when the kids were struggling. First rate, I'm booking again soon!!

Excellent fishing trip

Tried boat fishing for the first time today, spoke to Tony on the phone first and explained I didn't have boat rods etc and he said it was no problem as he has some on board and is happy to show me the ropes.

Had an excellent days fishing and Tony helped me throughout and advised me when to change rigs etc.

All the guys on the boat is extremely approachable and friendly (one of which was fortunately carrying sea sickness tablets!).

Will 100% be going out on the Mistress again.

Thanks once again Tony!
