haven't the time to waffle on so il cut to the chase
good numbers and decent size bass coming out a bit further offshore up to 5lb and most fish are in the 2 lb bracket .
The rays are increasing and moving back in now so some good numbers on the ray side if you target them on the right grounds. The hounds seem to have move down river a bit they will move back up soon still god number to be had on the hermits and squid had plenty hounds to 22lb this week. We been getting a few cod to 6 lb the last week not sure if the early arrivals or late stragglers but they have moved on to our grounds between the fleet herd of over 20 had this weekend and we had 6 so its a good sign for the season to come and a nice surprise. mackerel still a bit thin on the ground but few more about now nice mixed bag about around for the taking. see my web for better reports and pictures www.dawntidecharterfishing.co.uk

Fishing Report by Scott Belbin
on Galloper (Brightlingsea, Essex)
Jul 2015 by Scott Belbin
Report on-board Galloper
July has been another good month even if they weather was a little questionable at times. We have had the odd bass trip and tope trip offshore but have spent most of our time in pursuit of the smooth-hounds. these have been around in good numbers so far this year and with some decent fish showing too. this month has seen mainly small ones with a few bigger fish mixed in at times in the 8-10lbs range along with several double figure fish. these fish will be our main target on our general trips over the next month or so. We have seen a few bass on our general trips too and did our first bass trip last week and had a few nice fish for our efforts. the biggest was only around 4lbs but Fred took my advise and bought a spinning rod along which made a lot more enjoyable. Some times bass can be a little underwhelming on an uptide rod in coloured water or dragging a load of weight behind them. The bonus to this fishing is we can get away with really light gear an appreciate the fish so much more. If the weather permits we should be able to do several more of these trips over the next couple of months. There have still been one or two rays showing on most trips. These add a bit of variety to the mix of fish we’re catching and the males are great eating fish. these are likely to build in numbers over the next month or so although they can be a bit smaller at this time of year. We have seen plenty of other bits and bobs too with whiting, pouting and dogfish often showing in with our main catches. We found a few stray codling the other day which were nice to see. we had several sizable fish with the biggest going around 4.8lbs. After a good winter season like last year there are often a few fish hanging around in certain places or if you like turning up early for the coming season. This could be more likely as several are turning up on the general ground fishing. This should be a good sign and with conditions as they have been the codling could well turn up early this season with any luck. With a bit of settled weather the water went clear last week which resulted in a fair spread of mackerel showing. Ive no doubt the wind over the past few days will have broken them up and ruined water clarity but hopefully if we get another settled spell they will get back on the feed over the coming weeks.

Fishing Report by Ross Parham
on Spot On! (Brixham, Devon)

Report on-board Spot On!
What a month July was this year, very disappointing on the weather front with over 50% of trips having to be cancelled due to strong winds.
View Boats Page
However when we did get out the fishing was fantastic once more from SPOT ON! of Brixham with wrecking still going strong with great numbers of Cod, Pollock, and Ling being the main target species with the odd Bass and whiting making a show.
Skerries banks have tailed off a bit in numbers but the Plaice are getting bigger with one session seeing a 4lb and 5lb fish being taken along with a fair few in the 2-3lb region. The blonde and small eyed rays are also showing well although no great monsters of these landed just yet.
Last trip before my holiday yesterday (1st August) saw us head out to the mid channel wrecks with a group of lads from Bristol all on hired rods saw them catching plenty of Cod and Pollock along with pouting.
lucky angler Matt Williams pulled a monster from the deep and a once in a lifetime fish on a 15/30lb class fladen hire rod fitted with Akios reel loaded with 30lb braid and armed with a sidewinder lure on a 30lb trace hooked an Angler fish, which is a first for me on board Spot On. The fish hit 49lb on the scales on board and after the long steam home it was kindly weighed by Steve and Liam Ford of Brixham Sea anglers on there official club scales so after losing a bit of fluids and weight it hit the scales at 47lb 4oz
2016 diary is filling faster every day so if you want to fish on the ONLY boat out of Brixham who delivers results and also the ONLY catamaran in the port and the ONLY charter boat skipper who goes over and beyond to bring you results that others simply can not match up to, then please feel free to contact myself.
(MY CATCHES AND RESULTS DO THERE OWN TALKING!!)
BRIXHAMS Premier and TOP charter boat by far. (Just look at the photos and only been going 2 years!!!)
Thanks again to my SIDEWINDER sponsor for producing simply the best lures on the market today.

I will be back from holiday on the 14th August and am looking forward to the first shark trip of the year along with more Guernsey trips followed by the annual Totbay festival.

Mixed fortunes as ever over the Spring tide period. Some good days, some not so good days, but as ever, we endeavour to try and meet the expectations of our ever loyal crews on the Shy-Torque.

Hats off to the boys who fish these rather "heavy" tides, and again, those who are prepared to work extra hard on them are rewarded with a good bag of fish to take.
Ted Sabin, a regular aboard the boat, showed the rest of the lads the way home the other day with a lovely bag of 14 cod and 3 ling. Alan Sutcliffe, his mate, with a similar number too.
Ted is pictured with a couple of his fish.
