  • 01/2016 Fishing Report by Ross Parham on Spot On! (Brixham, Devon)

    Report on-board Spot On!

    After a long winter break with Spot On being ashore for the last 6 weeks for her annual scrub and tidy up etc, it was great to go straight back into the water and have 2 trips straight from the off with lovely calm seas and sunshine.
    We steamed out in search of hard fighting winter Pollock and we were not disappointed, a few inshore wrecks held some good size fish but we were in search of more action so another 15 mile steam saw us mid channel were the wreck showed huge signs of life and it showed as the rods were all bent over and line screaming from the reels meant we were in for a good day.
    We then moved again as we were in need of a break to be honest but each wreck continued to produce the same stamp of fish.
    The fish were a good stamp of between 7-9lb with a good few double figure ones thrown in the mix also.

    All in all a great start and an early finish as the lads told me they had caught enough which is always great to hear, so they filleted there catch and had a good scrub down on the way back in to keep Spot On looking pristine. (Thanks guys).
    Tops lures were sidewinders although redgills also produced some nice fish as well, we did try some bazinda lures but they did not do so well and the lures fell apart very easy.

    Remember you can get your sidewinders on board but please let me know what you want in advance as I carry a limited stock on the boat.

    The following weeks should see some bigger Pollock turn up along with whiting and ling.

    With already over 200 days booked for this year and already been asked for 2017 dates things are looking good for another great season on board Brixhams premier charter boat and the only catamaran to operate from brixham.

    Don't delay and check my availability if you want to join us for 2016.

    A big thank you for all my customers old and new for there support and your great attitude and banter on board.

    Thanks again to my sponsors SIDEWINDER and TOP RIGS for there continued support and great products.
