Report on-board Spot On!
⭐️⭐️⭐️ WHAT A DAY ⭐️⭐️⭐️
View Boats Page
Bumper weather along with BUMPER fishing.
Today saw Spot On and it’s crew head out in lovely calm conditions and glorious ’summer’ sunshine.
A couple of wrecks in and and BOOM! It was on, the quality of the fish was very good with lots of double figure prime pollock coming in for the lads every drift.
The day was safe to say great with everyone aching and plenty of fillets for all.
Biggest fish fell to Tim Phillips with a fine specimen pollock of 16lb 4oz.
This was a trip that will be remembered that’s for sure! ️
A big thanks to #sidewinderlures once again for there deadly Skerries eels which did the damage today that’s for sure.
NEXT BREAK IN THE WEATHER AND WE GO AGAIN.
To book your trip with Brixham and Torbay’s premier charter boat please feel free to get in touch. -

Strait to the point
The codling are slowly thinning out there’s still a few around but i think they are moving off now but its been good to see them back!
Good news the Bass are showing well had a dozen the other day to 5lb 5oz so bring lug & we should see more!
First of the hounds are here in force too had well over 30 last trip, No monsters its only early but averaging around 5-6lb all on squid & crab baits!
Skate numbers are down massively this year but still more than enough around if you want to target them i know some if you enjoy the spring skate run we’ve had some nice ones to 16lb lately!
Spurdogs showing further offshore several private boat been doing ok offshore,
If you fancy having Ago for them & don’t mind paying the extra contact me for the best tides although availability is tight. They might move in locally soon just like previous years so fingers crossed!
Main target for me at the moment is the Bass & hounds but seeing skate & odd codling come up among them too.
Fishing is really kicking off now!
busy mixed bags great fun & some nice fish around
Availability is tight now its best to contact me on 07523488290

Fishing Report by Matt Forrester

Report on-board Silver Halo
So after a year out it's been good to get back to my boat Silver Halo and into the fishing in the UK.
View Boats Page
Since being back I've been busy readying Silver Halo for her 5th coding and survey so much of March has mostly been work off the water, but now we're ready to fish and it's all down to the weather!
I've only managed to get out 3 times so far, fishing the wrecks with lures and jigs with mixed results but generally very positive overall.
We've had an amazing half dayer and two tougher full days, both with strong winds against tide, still some positive results with pollock to 18lb and cod to 7lb. Lots of smaller pollock are close to the 8lb mark but we've had a few bigger fish.
Most fish taken on the large green Sidewinder Skerries eels, other favourites have been the smaller 4" version, white and the black glitter Sidewinder sandeels. I also have a new set of jigs that I'm trailing over here and so far I've tried 2 patterns, 1 failed the test but 1 has passed with flying colours!! More time now needed to test the others.
Please keep an eye on my face book page and group for trip updates and short notice spaces, many thanks Matt.UPCOMING INDIVIDUAL SPACES ONBOARD Silver Halo

Report on-board Galloper
Although I cant be sure how much longer the codling will hang around in numbers we have still been finding a few on our general trips.
View Boats Page
Ian had the boat booked for a match the other day. 9 lads with 1 rod each and 2 hooks permitted. Unfortunately we had to leave late and return early that day so our time was limited that day and the pressure was on. Luckily there were no shortage of fish to be caught with whiting and dogfish from the first cast. Often two at a time on all manor of rigs and baits. Mark fished slightly bigger baits and picked out the first codling of the day with another soon after before the tide died. We had a move over slack water and the lads glanced at the score sheets to get an idea of tactics for the rest of the day. by the time we arrived at our next mark the tide was well under way and the same direction as the wind now thankfully as it did freshen later in the day. I definitely saw some bigger baits going out for as the day went on and the lads were soon bringing in some high scoring double shots of dogfish as well as some rays. Steve had the biggest ray of the day but it wasn’t enough to wipe out all those dogfish the others had clocked up. Just as the tide notched off Ian and Graham came into their own with a nice run of codling each. I think Graham had one a cast four casts in a row. For a little variety there were even a few pouting too. It was a shame we had to head in relatively early but the lads still managed 13 codling 3 rays and stacks of other fish too.
Our general trips have continued to produce numbers of codling and thorn-backs with lots of whiting and dogfish keeping us busy as well as a few other bonus species.
Further afield we are chasing spurdogs, hounds, rays, bass and other species including the occasional codling off there too and with any luck a proper one at that.
I have individual spaces and possibility of full boat bookings over the coming weeks and months if you want to get out.
Please be advised that a steady trickle of dates are filling up for 2023 so please get in touch asap if you require a specific date.
Remember it is often worth giving me a shout if you are cancelled else where and still wish to get out, as we have lots of sheltered fishing available and a big catamaran which makes it even more comfortable.
