    The Belgium fiching club are back in Ramsgate fishing aboard Duke IV, a slow start but after a move to a rough piece of ground Henriec landed a fine Bass of 9lb 12oz on a large mackerel fillet. Joule quickly followed this with a Starry Smoothound of 6lb 8oz, Luke landed a 6lb Bass and Derrick finished the day with a 7lb Hounds. A good start to the week's fishing with plenty of Doggies which are a delicacy back in Belgium so can't go wrong today. Pic shows today's catch

    As summer progresses the Skate have finished their breeding for the year and they have moved off the breeding ground turning up all over but with numbers caught reduced although some reaching mid double size. They still go for the fish bait but as the herring have moved off they prefer a mackerel chunk. The Smoothounds are here now but not in the numbers we would like but the larger ones make up for the numbers with the rip roaring fight they put up. Most angler's prefer to release them although they are good eating.
    When the sea calms and the water clears the feathers work for the school Bass and Mackerel. Still some dates inc weekends are available. Pic shows Tim wrestling a nice Hound prior to release.

    The past months fishing has been generally good with Skate being the most reliable species, up to 20 of these lovely fish in a day. Along with the Skate, Smoothound numbers are increasing and as the week's pass they will increase in size. Mackerel fishing is good when the water clears along with school Bass around the banks. Joule of the Belgium fiching club landed a fine fish of 6lb 8oz. Yesterday's trip was tough due to the persistent cold North wind we have been suffering but we ended the day with 6 Skate to 10lb 8oz along with Smoothounds, pout and the ever present doggies. Prospect's look good with improving weather and clear water forecast. Still some weekend dates available so come along and make the most of the quality fishing we are enjoying off Ramsgate now.

    Still plenty of Skate around, we have caught 13 for now and just half way through the day, still herring is the favourite bait for them but as peeler crab numbers increase more Smoothounds will be caught. Great fighting fish are Hounds so a fine days fishing with a good mix of fish with Bass and Mackerel to the right bait. Also being caught recently Plaice and the odd Turbot ps we ended the day with 26 Skate Whiting and Dabs. Pic shows Paul group with part of today's catch

    It may have been April fools day but we caught plenty of Skate today along with Whiting and Dogs. The sun shone and the wind dropped at last. The crabs will be peeling soon which will bring in the Hounds so plenty to fish for in the coming weeks. Still dates available including weekends so come on down, the fishings good!

    It's a cold breezy day but the Skate are coming thick and fast, herring being the bait today. The gulls are chasing the sprats with the Cod underneath them pushing them to the surface. When the sprats move off the Cod will return to bottom feeding giving us a better chance of action although the Skate are fighting fit and making for great fishing for now. Dont miss out on the fish fest off Ramsgate now! Pic shows part of today's catch

    Top class fishing today with plenty of Whiting along with 8 Skate to Richards group from Maidstone Kent. Herring being the top bait. The Cod are here but feasting on the herring that are everywhere for now. They should be thinning out soon so we will get more Cod as they return to more bottom feeding, fingers crossed we don't get too much spratt this winter. Plenty of space available in the new year for groups or individuals so give me a call. Pic shows Darrens best Skate of the day just short of 10lb
