Some terrific fish on board the Skerry Belle. With the best fish definately going to Wayne Milton for his monster bass, weighing in at 19 lb 4 oz. This fish is 5 oz off the British boat record and the biggest UK boat caught bass since 1987. So as you can see that really is a great achievement (see photo).
Our best blonde on board so far is 24 lb. We had a near record sea scorpion which gave us just short of a record. Some of our thornbacks have been nudging the 18 lb mark. The thornbacks are here in abundance, with again, over 20 per trip not uncommon.
As spring approaches we will start paying our attention to the wrecks on the Goodwins where we should see good numbers of coding bass, channel whiting blondes gurnard plaice and most other species. Remember we cater for walk ons, small groups, whole boat bookings up to 10 anglers. Remember all equipment, baits and tuition is included on all trips, unlimited tea and coffee and hot pies for lunch. Walk in toilet, hot and cold running water, heating and seating inside for all.
Now taking bookings for summer wrecks

Some bumper catches should be seen in the next few months on board Skerry Belle, as the fishing improves with the days getting longer. Cod, bass, blonde rays, thornbacks, plaice, gurnard, mackeral, hounds, and mixed bag fishing on the Goodwins will be our target species. The Goodwins are renouned for catches of large bass and cod in early Spring. Remember, we are a full time charter boat and operate out of the Royal Harbour, Ramsgate, 7 days a week. Individuals, small groups or whole boat bookings can be organised anytime. All our trips include quality baits, equiptment, lunch, and tuition. Call now for best tides this Summer for wrecks or general fishing.

The fishing should be spectacular now off the coast of Ramsgate, all through the months of November, December, January and February. The cod fishing will be superb! The herring and sprat scholes have now moved offshore. So with the cod putting on extra weight feeding on these the fish should be much larger than last year. Averaging the 6-8lb bracket and definitely a chance of a large double. With this and the skate fishing on the goodwins where we have seen fish up to 15lb. And over 25 fish a trip. It really should be a bumper few months. Remember all my trips include equipment and some baits and I can supply lug worm onboard so no need to worry about baits on any trip. Remember all trips include a qualified deckhand for your tuition. Children and families more than welcome. Individuals from as little as £40 a head. Call me now on 07805250427 to book.

After a very successful Summer season on board Skerry Belle, we are now turning our attention to cod fishing around the North Foreland and Goodwin Sands. The first fish would be in the 4 - 8 lb bracket using local lugworm baits. There is still a chance of some very large Bass, and plenty of large channel Whiting which can sometimes top 3 - 4 lb. Thornback skate staying all year round, the Autumn and Winter months can easily be our best months, with over 100 fish a trip being not uncommon.
From January onwards the larger fish arrive, mainly falling to whole squid baits, live baits, and cuttlefish. Fish up to 20lb between January and March.
This is also a great time for the Spurdogs and large female Thornbacks. These are just a few of the fish that turn up off our shores of Ramsgate, but you are also likely to catch in plenty of Dabs, Whiting, Pouting, Dogfish, Pollock, and Plaice.
Please call the skipper now on 07805 250 427 for best tides and availability.

This will be our first full year with the Skerry Belle and one me and the crew John are really looking forward to. Skerry Belle is ready for a new season and has had many extras added for your comfort. As normal we will be catering for the inshore fishing, but we also have plans for some cracking offshore fishing. We will be targeting blonde rays, thornback rays, hounds during the spring. We will then be targeting tope, bass, and cod and pollock on the wrecks. Remember for any specialist trips, holiday makers, individuals and novices, please call me now for best tides. Hope to see you all soon onboard Skerry Belle, which is going to be a very exciting year. Tight Lines.
