    Lots of fish now and every species you would expect for April inc rays hounds lots of dog fish a few bass starting to show up now always on every ones hope to catch list, the weather has been up and down but starting to settle now as it should as we are entering the spring season, we always have individual spaces on our boat to help the lone angler out so don't dispare you will be welcomed and its a way to make like minded friends.
    The weather is always our Achilles heal but at least you know when you book a catamaran you will be far more comfortable than if you had booked a single hulled boat and you will appreciate it especially if you suffer sea sickness this is such a debilitating condition but rarely does this effect anglers out on our stable catamaran well worth thinking about before you book a charter boat so check out our web site at www.sophieleacharters.co.uk or

    Thanks to Lee for an excellent day on Saturday.

    Excellent weather, flat calm (for most of the day), and some great sport with Smoothhounds to 11.5lb, Tope to 1lb !

    As soon as the fishing died after slack tide Lee moved us on to the fish again, with 4 Bass including one for the barbecue.

    Al the bike is pictured with one of his smoothies and wearing his best pants.
