Fishing Report by Roger Lennon
on Skerry Belle (Ramsgate, Kent)

Report on-board Skerry Belle
Will now be turning our attention to the Autumn and Winter fishing, which can be pretty spectacular onboard. The bass fishing can be excellent this time of year as the larger fish move inshore to gorge on the whiting shoals that turn up before the long migrate south. If it's a double figure bass you want, November/December is definitely the time. (See photo.) We are noticing the cod fishing is picking up and have had many reports of them coming up from local beaches. So this could also be an exciting time. The wrecks on the Goodwins will start to see a good splattering of Conger, along with Thornbacks Rays and Spurdogs. There will also be plenty of good channel Whiting, Dabs, Smooth hounds, and Pouting to keep the rods rods tips moving. Remember we are a full time charter boat. We operate 24/7 and trips can even be booked the night before. We include everything you need, including tuition with a fully qualified deckhand and lunch is available. Hope to see you all onboard soon.
Tight lines.

Report on-board Brigand
Our Squid fishing this year is showing all the indications that it will be every bit as good as last year, which was exceptionally good!
120 Squid & 5 Cuttle in a 4hr session, under lights, with 5 guests.
The hours of darkness into dawn were definitely the most productive period with glowing jigs but it remained steady for the rest of the session.
Poor weather forecast until around 27th Oct but we will be hitting it hard once it improves.
We have early morning, late evening, inshore and Offhsore trips available to book - check our calendar on this site or www.brigandcharters.com for availability.
£40 for 4hr sessions which should get you around 25 decent Squid each on these trips and perhaps more as the season gets into full swing early November.
We have a comprehensive stock of jigs onbaord with everything from high end Yozuri's to £1 a pop Amazon specials.

Bass and bass and more bass offshore. I think we had a couple of small hounds, dogfish and whiting mixed in along with a small tope last week but if you want bass then now is the time and offshore is the place. Top rod must have had in excess of 20 bass though I didn't count. Stanley was getting amongst them and I even managed to sneak a couple out while he had a nap!
The bass will be offshore until December and I have plenty of spaces for general and offshore trips between now and then.

Fishing Report by Andy Savage
on Sea Urchin III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
16 Oct 2025 by Andy Savage
Report on-board Sea Urchin III
Two day report aboard Sea Urchin…..
The neap tides are back again which generally means the anglers book on to go out wreck fishing, so that’s what we’ve been up to. On Wednesday we had a funny forecast with lightish Northerly winds and a couple of feet of swell. It wasn’t going to be perfect conditions, so I gave the anglers the option of going or not. Six dropped out, but I still ran with seven anglers who were still keen to come and have a day out at sea.
We managed to find a few Mackerel before running North on the Ebb tide. Arriving at the first wreck, the conditions were ok. The first three drifts saw ten fish come aboard. Best being an 8lb Ling for Ian Kellock and a 6lb 8oz Cod for John Weetman which reminded the biggest fish for the day. A weather front started to close in on us and the breeze lifted making it difficult to get the lines in the wreck as the drift speed increased.
The lads persevered and we picked up fish here and there on mainly muppet traces with squid and mackerel, but it was hard work. We fished three wrecks for the day and whilst it wasn’t particularly productive on the fish front, the true anglers who came were brilliant fun and we had a great laugh.
Today we had similar conditions (even though the forecast gave much lighter winds) for the group of five lads who had the boat booked; but after finding only four mackerel we ran south to a wreck I knew hadn’t been fished for a couple of weeks. I had the usual internal anxiety setting up the first drift, but thankfully there were a few fish at home. The lads got stuck straight in taking a mix of nice clean Codling and Ling for the last couple of hours of the Ebb Tide.
Gary Grantham took the biggest Ling, just into double figures and we had plenty of Cod around the 3-4lb mark. Squid and muppet traces dominated today. Once the flood came through, the drift speed increased significantly and it spoiled the afternoon, with only a few fish taken in the last couple of hours. Still….it was nice to give Simon and his crew a good day out after cancelling their last three trips. Thanks to everyone for coming. It was brilliant to have you aboard.View Boats Page

3 matches on the boat this week. On Thursday it was super league, there was a stiff north easterly blowing so had to stay close, in great fishing though. 18 species including the first Couches Bream of the year plus Plaice , loads of Bass,Big Garfish and some nice Triggers. Top 3 on the day
1st Luke Allen 300
2nd Steve Harder 197
3rd Ray Barron 197
Next it was the Friday round of the super league we had slightly better weather and fishing. 20 species including some really nice Plaice, Trigger Fish, Red Bream ,Bass, Rays and another bonus Brill. Top 3 on the day
1st Mike Fox 268
2nd Gary Young 246
3rd Andy Pedon 245.
Then it was the last round of the Piscary evening league, very disappointing turnout this year so I won't be running it next year unless I get at least 7 anglers committed to the league?
Unfortunately although the forecast was good there was quite a easterly breeze which made the fishing a bit restrictive. Only 5 species Dogs, Bream,Bass, Smoothounds and Smalleyed Rays. Top 3 on the night
1st Darren Phillips 90
2nd Jay Hemming 78
3rd Andy Pedon 61
Top 3 in the league best 4 out of 5
1st Andy Pedon 34 free trip.

It was great to be joined by dad and some of his friends chasing the bass offshore again. The weather was decent and so was the fishing. Andy was top rod and couldn't stop catching throughout the day. To be honest I have no idea how many he had in total but they kept him busy all day. The rest of the guys had fish at various times throughout the day and there were some decent chunky fish among them. They must have been pretty easy to catch as even dad had a few! The bass fishing offshore runs into December nowadays and is the best fishing we can offer locally this time of year.
I have plenty of availability for groups and individuals depending on conditions we can use worms at anchor or lures and lives on the drift. I also have spaces for general fishing closer to shore.
