Report on-board Braveheart II
What's been happening. Well this year has been exceptionally busy for BRAVEHEARTII and have had a waiting list for angler's wanting to book certain days and tides so I must be doing something right. Dispite the Unseasonably dodgy weather
the fishing has been good with a good stamp of bass early on in the spring that are still hanging around in all the usual marks, until the water temperature drops. As I stated previously weed has proven to be challenging at times but once we can get away from it bang it all kicks off......bass are shoaling up on the banks and are normally there all year as 15 or more years ago i used to head out there in the summer with good results but I find the inshore fishing can be just as productive at this time of year.
The Hound fishing has been good but again because of the weed we haven't been able to fish the normal marks which had forced us to look elsewhere with good results. As ever I am hopeful that if the water temperature drops sufficiently over Christmas and the new year we will see a few codling of the N Essex coast! One can but live in hope. We had a codling off a wreck in June during a boat fishing comp with 80 odd boats and the angler won a prize for special catch ....( a couple of rods and various terminal tackle).
Looking to wrap up in November and lift the boat for it's new 5 year coding.
Remember we cater for small parties between 3 and 7 and I've kept the boat affordable for this reason. I have purposely shyed away from a cat etc as I don't want to lose these smaller parties but you never know if the right boat came up I might be tempted.
As always I'm grateful for all the support I've had off my regulars and have made many new friends this year.
I look forward to welcoming you aboard for the remainder of this year and next season
All the best &
Tight lines Phil Browning
