    Report on-board Braveheart II

    The weather this year has been kind to us, getting out and enjoying more days at sea doing what we love... fishing.
    We've had some great sport with big smoothounds in the shallows and bass both on baits and lures, with thornback rays for those fishing for them using squid and herring/mackerel baits. Eel's have started to make a comback after a good few years of absence... we had 6 in one trip the other day.
    With the warm settled weather we are starting to see a few stingrays which are amoungst my favourite fish, and we've had 5 so far on the last few weeks and it's always a thrill when an angler catches one of these magnificent fish, especially as some of the angler's have been fishing for in excess of 50 years and never caught one until they stepped on BRAVEHEARTII, and in 2023 we had 25 to the boat in that season.
    I look forward to welcoming anglers old and new aboard BRAVEHEARTII.

    Many thanks & tight lines
