    The Codling are showing in good numbers finally!
    we had 23 on the last trip a very good sign!
    They aren’t all massive fish but some reasonable size ones to 4lb
    Even so its a welcome catch in-between the Rays!

    Fishing has finally & really picked up the last few weeks!

    Plenty of Thornbacks showing locally on the usual marks & herring bait doing the trick as always

    Codling seem to have made a strong appearance the last few weeks squid & lug seems best at the moment.

    Moving into spring is looking exciting with Codling, Rays, Hounds, Early bass & maybe the spurdogs too!

    Diary is getting very busy so booking in advance is recommended but do keep an eye out for last minute spaces, although at the moment they are getting snapped up pretty quick!

    Contact 07523488290 for upcoming availability

    Thanks everyone

    Quick update

    The Bigger bass are plentiful during September/ October on local marks worm, squid or a live whiting bait should tempt 1 or 2 better ones!!

    The big numbers of bass all shapes & sizes are further offshore now its great fishing but extra miles are needed for these trips &
    worm bait is a must along with the lures too!

    The Skate are moving back inshore & on local marks now ,if you like the Rays get your fish baits out!

    Hounds are still about all over the places really no big girls but plenty of small to medium ones on the squid baits !

    I won’t mention the COD fishing lol

    I have loads of offshore Bass trips planned through September & October some availability remaining on a handful of October ones best to Contact me on 07523488290 for availability

    Thanks everyone hopefully see you all aboard soon

    Well the decent stamp of bass has increased again several most trips between 2-5lb with the odd better one to 8lb!!
    all the fish have been local on the lures & worm baits. Bass is our main target until the season ends midd November its prime time now,

    I Will have to start pushing further offshore as temperatures drop but we have plenty of time local yet now the betters ones are showing,

    But please remember further offshore trips are longer days & cost a bit more
    Unfortunately fuel isn’t free
    but most of you know me by now always chasing them Bass especially on the lures!!!

    October is when it really kicks off offshore with the numbers & sizes increasing even more worm lives baits, squid but lures normally do really well

    Been a great summer weather & fish wise lets hope autumn is the same
    Thanks to everyone for the support through out the season hope to see you all onboard soon

    Remember to Keep an eye on my my website for cancellations or spaces the diary is pretty rammed 6-7 weeks ahead but get in-touch il always try must best to get everyone afloat www.dawntidecharterfishing.co.uk

    Quick one!
    Plenty of sizeable bass around especially on the lures the better ones arevcoming up among the schoolies too! The Bigger bass showing in deeper water as always,

    Hound fishing is better inshore than offshore at the moment & live hermits from my pots have definitely got the edge on the big hounds!!

    Rays are a bit slow but haven’t really targeted them much but numbers are down this season im Sure if you target them you’ll get a few.

    Tope are showing offshore had lots of small to medium ones but no monsters this season yet! But there is still plenty of time
    you do need the fresh mackerel for these & they have just started to show finally.

    I am mainly targeting bass at the moment especially on the lures its great fun !!!
    il do hound trips when its too windy to get offshore in the sheltered waters been some big fish close to home too!

    Thanks everyone for the support see you all aboard soon diary is very busy try to book in advance if you can but there is loads of time to
    Get out yet

    Quick report
    The fishing & weather has been fantastic
    Theres been Plenty of Rays about some good double figure females & decent males coming aboard! It Keeps everyones rods bending very busy at times with tripple hook ups!

    Theres been plenty of hounds coming out last few week nothing massive the biggest so far was around 8lb but the bigger ones will move in shortly,

    Good steady reports of spurs further offshore but obviously if you want to head further offshore that will cost extra due to the mileage we will cover. They might move inn local yet just like previous seasons just have to wait and see.

    The bass wont be long either now we normally start seeing the first decent ones from end of march had a couple of schoolies the other day & herd of others been reported so its looking good & water temp is 9.6 - 10c warming up now!!!

    Quick update
    The thornback numbers are increasing finally
    We Boated around 20 odd to 12lb offshore the other day not massive numbers i know but its a start finally!
    We also had plenty rays inshore on an short evening trip last week so they are starting to move inshore too a good sign.
    All fish took herring baits & the good thing is using herring is the spurdogs love it too.
    Spurs are being reported in good numbers offshore to the east so if you want to pay to punch further to the east for some spurs let me know.
    Its a good sign that the spurs could on the way we will just have to wait and see but hopefully it will be as good as last season spurdog run!
    Its Not long and the Hounds , Bass, Tope will be here before you know it.
    The forecast looks very poor as im sure you have all have seen the storms are upon us & i doubt any boats will get out any time soon NOT good for any charter skipper.
    Call 07523488290 or follow me @dawntidecharters for availability but i will say theres only limited availability left during the summer its looking busy & im looking forward to another great season thanks everyone stay safe
