  • 05/2015 Fishing Report by Ross Parham on Spot On! (Brixham, Devon)

    Report on-board Spot On!

    Spot On has completed just 2 channel island trips so far this year, but I am pleased to say with great results.
    Some prime turbot and Brill have been coming on board from the various banks around Guernsey, the biggest turbot going 11lb 6oz and the biggest brill hitting the net was 6lb 8oz.
    I tried a favourite bream mark of mine to see if there were any resident bream around and although not many we did have a few, some nice black bream and a rare couches bream, along with gurnards, garfish, wrasse and doggies.

    The wrecking also is still in full swing with Spot On again finding a another wreck loaded with Ling and with 8 rods and 8 ling on most drifts we soon had enough and moved on.
    Plenty of small cod around and some nice summer Pollock make up the other species landed on recent wrecking trips.

    A nice surprise was yet another novice angler on his first ever boat trip and using a hire rod hooked a beauty of a Bass on a rhubarb and custard 4" sidewinder hitting the scales at 13lb 8oz, not bad for the first bass of 2015.

    I have not had any trips to the skerries recently, but I have a couple of trips coming up, so I will report again very soon.

    The bookings have gone mad and I have opened my diary for 2016 as I now have a 2016 tide table

    Remember there is only one premier charter boat in Brixham and she is the only Catamaran and I see still the only one who keeps up to date with catch photos and reports, even know I always seem to be at sea.

    If you want a trip please see spot-on-charters.co.uk or call 07878668662.

    June again sees Spot On booked every day and more Guernsey trips so I will keep you posted when I am next to the computer again.

    Although we have yet again had some awesome fish this month, I just had to put a picture of
    Lucas with his 13lb 8oz Bass, well done that man.

    SPOT ON IS ALSO SPONSORED BY SIDEWINDER LURES SO NOW THE PREMIER CHARTER BOAT ALSO HAVE THE PREMIER LURES TO MATCH AND WITH NEW RANGES BEING TRIED AND TESTED ON BOARD PLEASE ASK FOR DETAILS.
