    Report on-board Brigand

    Sat 8th Oct
    For the very first time this year we did not get all of the fish we were after, well we got some Bream but the Bass eluded us so I guess its fair to say it was 50% successful. We headed West, then North, anchored some, drifted a little, changed rigs several times, put in the miles and stayed out a little longer - it was tough! Anglers were great (particular thanks to Stuart for sharing the "bait of the day" which only he had, classy Stuart and much appreciated by all) and we ended up with some lovely deep plaice to go with the Bream so on balance a reasonable day.

    Sunday 9th
    Really needed a day off and hadn't planned on fishing but at 0900 received an SOS from a group that found their boat double booked and stranded in Brighton - what a horrible position to be in. 90 minutes later we are heading out to Sea and making plans on the hoof! Feathered some bait, headed West and had a great days fishing which included: Scad, Mackerel, Starry Smooth-hound, Bream, Dog fish (off course), Dabs, Plaice, Red Gurnard and our first inshore Cod of the year. Happy anglers with a box full of fish to take away and a ruined day salvaged at the last minute.
    We are now prepping for serious Cod so its time to pack away the 12-20lb class and get the big guns out!!
    Availability is limited (took another 4 bookings this morning) from repeat customers who clearly like what we do - Top quality tackle, unlimited free premium cuttle bait and free Tea/Coffee/Soup/Hot chocolate all day for £50 so if you are interested please give us a call and we will try our best to accommodate.
