  • 5-star mike day (31/10/2024)

    Great day out as our first experience onboard. Jes and George kept us in the game all day. Lures, drifts and anchoring collected a selection of catch. 2 takable Bass and some good size returnable rays kept up the spirits. Good banter and advice served up with Tea and Coffee, what is not to like? Plenty of room for seating, rod rests and big catches. Thanks so much guys. Mike day.

    Skippers Reponse: Thanks Mike.

  • 5-star Ronald Havard (19/08/2019)

    Great day with Les again- lots of fish and great coffee- well worth a trip- booking for Nov this year and April-June - August for next year cheers Les

    Skippers Reponse: Thanks Ronnie.

  • 5-star Ronald Havard (19/08/2019)

    Another great day- Plenty of fish and lots of teas and coffees- Booking again for Nov and next year well worth the money cheers Les

  • 5-star Ronald Havard (10/06/2019)

    Great days fishing with Les yesterday- Plenty of fish and hot drinks- awe some boat and plenty of advice for us. Pleasure to go fishing with- rebooked for late August - highly recommend you use Les

    Skippers Reponse: Thanks Ronnie. I dont have many complete novices now but I always enjoy the raw buzz and excitement that meets every fish landed and particularly with each new species. See you again in August.

  • 5-star Alan Pitt (09/08/2018)

    Fantastic trip out with Les. We had a really enjoyable day with good company all round and will be back sometime for sure. The fresh mackerel tasted superb on the BBQ the same evening!

    Skippers Reponse: Thanks Alan. I like the fillets panfires in chilli infused oil, skinside down until a tad pink on flesh side. Salt pepper and honey on that side, flip them dor another few minutes. Great on toast for breakfast, or with new potatoes etc dor lunch or dinner. They keep in the fridge for a few days once gutted.

    Last year 2021 was the best and busiest of my Charter 16 year period. Lots of trips and the Plaice and Bass fishing unbelievable. I also bagged my PB Bass and Blue Fin Tuna and had some great boat records including a 400lb Porbeagle Shark. Now I tend to use this site for its fantastic diary and for advertising spaces. I update my FB pages with weekly fishing reports. If you want to come along this year the bookings are very advanced so please plan ahead. Tightlines Les.

    28 Aug 2020 by Les Jones

    Well what a year so far, lockdown, one man trips, two man trips and now nearly normal but the new normal. Big thank you to all the anglers that have kept coming as soon as we could through these tricky times. It is a proper escape to something relaxed and enjoyable. I have been booked solid all summer and September is nearly full too. My prices remain keen and that helps. So here are my prices to take me through to next year and for the whole of 2021.
    8hr trip - Max 4 persons £340, lots of space no masks.
    8hr trip - Max 5 persons £375, PPE if preferred.
    8hr trip - Max 6 persons £420.
    9hr Bassing - Max 6 £480.
    9hr Sharking - Max 4 inc tackle, bait, chum £600
    10hr wrecking - Max 6 £660.
    I’m licences for 12 plus 2 and she is a big boat but I like the space!!

    This is Rob from last Saturday with one of the Turbot. Other notable catches this week were tope to 31lb and a boat record 29.5lb Blonde Ray. I run my own website and occassionally update this one with reports but needless to say the fishing has been so good I have been out on the boat alot and not thinkng about marketing. There are still a few spaces and dates in August so get a space or book a date when you can with me and try Lymington as your fishing port. We have a great home port fishing the grounds south of the Isle of Wight, The Solent, The Needles, St Catherines and Hengistbury Head. I also pickup from Yarmouth on the Island.

    If you like a lot of weight on your rod then this was the trip to be on. On Thursday I rounded a crew of hopefuls that were on standby. We were fishing in a small tide which meant the lead weights never went over a pound but the fish were feeding extremely well. And they were all big and weighty. Nearly all of them went back to do their spring thing. Peter Hellyar caught a superb 29lb specimen Blonde Ray, a feisty 38lb Conger, a specimen 10lb 2oz Bass and a 10lb Thornback plus Whiting and more Congers. All these fish were returned except for the small Whiting which made very good live baits. Ian Hewett caught this lovely 17lb Undulate Ray plus a 12lb Blonde Ray and Congers. Mike Callus caught the cracking 23lb Blonde Ray and a 30lb Conger plus another Blonde Ray and smaller Congers. Devon caught the first and best Small Eyed Ray at around 7lb. There were also more Whiting, Eels and Rays caught by the rest of the crew. I was pretty knackered at the end of it because of all the weight lifting plus the sea state continued to build gradually throughout the day, before we made a run for the Solent to finish off in comfort.

  • 14/05/2017 Fishing Report by Les Jones

    14 May 2017 by Les Jones

    Three days of wind, rain and sunshine. It's still spring and the inshore fishing is waking up slowly as our sea temperatures begin to rise. Below is Paul from yesterdays trip with a cracking Black Bream of 4lb 4ozs that came along very early in the tide. The big Bream was spent and completely empty. The day was breezy and a bit lumpy with very few other boats deciding to go but the experienced Hopp Inn lads fished well for the best Black Bream of the season so far. Other catches were more Black Bream, a 4lb Bull Huss, Wrasse, Dogs and Pout.

    On Saturday a crew of marine biologists really enjoyed their day despite the wet start and then breezy conditions, all fished in comfortable inshore waters to catch some good fish. Nick started with a well marked Undulate Ray at 9lb 8oz. We tested for mackerel and caught Garfish. In the afternoon we found Smoothounds feeding well in the ebb. Nick below caught a nice double before being upstaged by Matt with his cracking 14lb'er. All fish were returned to fight again
