IMPORTANT. on booking the whole boat, we are coded for 12 place it means what it says not expecting to pay for 6 places when your mates let YOU down. Organisers of trips please be aware best to collect all funds before sail date to protect the others in case of let downs, responsibility is the group who have booked not the skippers.

REMEMBER TO BOOK PRIOR TO COMING ON HOLIDAY TO GUARANTEE YOUR PLACE:- If you are planning a holiday or just a short day and full day trips, fishing from Great Yarmouth . easy parking and boat access. We will also do longer trips as required. Booking for winter fishing running trips daily.

  • 5-star Vipul Vadgama (16/04/2022)

    We hired Richard to scatter my late mother's ashes at sea. He was very accommodating and straight forward. He knew exactly what was expected, was very respectful. He also arrived exactly on time to pick us up so there was no waiting around. Perfect service and a real gentleman. Thank you Richard.

    Had a great day out plenty of fish caught and plenty of help from the skipper for the non fishermen onboard (and for me unhooking, I'm used to carp that don't bite back!) . Had smooth hounds, ray, whiting and plenty of doggies on worm. Will def come back for another trip. Skipper also skinned the larger fish for us so ready for cooking Nice to meet you richard, thanks again! Steve

    Skippers Reponse: Thanks Steve, great to meet you look forward to seeing you again, I really appreciate your feedback, stay safe tight lines
