Hi everyone hope you are all well 

Just a quick update the charter industry is still battling with operating restrictions and finical buisness support, 

On a positive since boating and fishing is allowed during semi lockdown i decided to nip out a few times with my family. 

fishings good had plenty good size bass, hounds and skate about il let the pictures do the talking.

The weekend just gone was my twins 5th birthday took them on a family lockdown fishing trip it was really good sport for them non stop smallish skate and hounds inshore, keeping them busy just what we all needed a day out on the water great memories who knows they may become skippers one day.

please keep and eye out for when lockdown gets lifted and get booked on asap as my diary is all over the place with 3 months of trips being shifted about so please bare with me il do my best to get everyone afloat hopefully not to long now!!

hope to see you all soon Stay safe everyone 

mark peters 

As you can guess All trips will be cancelled for 3 weeks maybe more pending government sanctions and peoples lifes !! 

Lets do the right thing and STAY AT HOME 

The quicker we beat this the quicker we can get back at sea enjoying what our waters have to offer and getting back to normal

When the Corona Virus finally exhausts itself and the danger is over, let's do something good for our country,
Let's spend our holidays in England, eat in local restaurants, buy British products, buy local meats and veggies and support local businesses what ever they are. These businesses are going to find it very difficult to get back on their feet and survive without our help. They're suffering badly now and i am one of those along with many others. 
Our products and services are some of the best in the world. Our country is one of the most beautiful.

on a positive note by the time we all get back out afloat the fishing it will be amazing with the hounds tope skate bass rays mackerel and more well and truly here with the fine weather it will be fantastic.

while all this is going on and we are on lock down protecting the NHS and helping to save life's i get to spend some well needed quality time with my family and keep them safe 

take care and stay safe everyone see you all soon

In total we had over 120 rays in 2 trips if we are getting these numbers now wait until full season we may beat my trip record of 117 in 1 trip. biggest was 15lb well done jason setting the bar high but del was close plenty of double figure fish and at one point we had 5 on at once. Bass will be moving in soon so always good to chuck a worm rod out just incase also there are a few codling here and there. few pictures and there is a video on my Facebook page as proof  to back up my story time to get out everyone its only going to get better!!!!!!!!

November 2016

Well the Cod haven't arrived in the numbers we hoped for no one knows why i feel it just one of those things water temp food or stocks ect !!! We have had a few around the 5lb mark and small ones too but it is hard going I'm not going to lie. skate fishing is still good all shapes and sizes they have been a bit quite the last week but they will come back on. plenty of nice size whiting around aswel finger crossed the cod will flood in any time soon and we will have the sport we hoped for this winter!!!

August and September 2016

Been looking for the plaice in the estuary with success best trip was over 35 plaice to just under 4lb looking for the turbot next so keep an eye out for the dawn tide II !!! bass fishing has been good many fish around 7 - 8 lb biggest was 9,12lb but september is the time of the year for then big bass so there is still time plenty shoaling pup on the offshore banks now had over 40 last week out there all shapes and sizes! the skate fishing is coming back in force now had 67 the last trip we had a go for them all squid bait and yes i have plenty squid now. hours have been good sport this year biggest was 17lb they are going now still a chance of a double for a few weeks yet. Remember this time last year the Cod started showing so fingers crossed its all going to go to happen again very exciting this time of year we will be having a look in a few weeks for the cod so keep eye out for reports but for now we will be offshore bassing for few weeks unless the weather holds us on the skate local grounds see you all soon

   

ju;y 2016

July has been very exciting some of the bigger tides a bit tough and a weed nightmare in the shallows but most trips producing plenty mackerel hounds to 16lb skate to 12lb bass to 10lb few gurnards as-well all on our usual marks for july. we have started looking further a feild on the offshore banks for plaice and turbot with success plaice to 3lb and good numbers too lots of mackerel and sand eels on the same banks and turbot too and the odd bass for good measure we are looking to do this trip once a month and hit some wrecks too for the cod pollock and bass they do cost a little more as its a 60 mile round trip about 16 hours long but well worth it for the different species  see you all very soon
