Fishing Report by Mark Peters
on DAWN TIDE II (Wallasea Island, Essex)
Apr 2024 by Mark Peters
Report on-board DAWN TIDE II
We have Been seeing Bass for a good few weeks but the numbers have really ramped up on the last few trips & just in time too!
I am going to start targeting them more now the season is open. Regulations state -
(1st April -31st December 2 bass per person, per 24hours, 42cm & over)
It wont be long until we start hitting them on the lures & Jigs a really effective & exciting way to fish for Bass.
But For now its all been happening on the worm baits a few bigger ones have come on the squid recently too.
please bring worm baits & lure kits if you have them & your due out its a must!
This Bass season is going to be an absolute cracker!!
The hounds are increasing in numbers & sizes steadly. Some days are better than others but that’s normal.
Soon they will be up in the shallows in huge packs providing manic sport!
The Rays seem very very low in numbers in our area its a real shame as they were taken for granted & made up the bulk of our catch during spring. Unfortunately for the moment the days of boating 100 plus rays in a trip seem to be a distant memory they are around but nothing like they used to be!
Spurdogs are being reported now too… if you fancy a trip chasing them let me know they aren’t too far away. There has been some caught locally so Who knows they might move in local again!!!
looking forward to the season ahead as always availability is tight now diary is busy but contact me on 07523 488290 & il do my best to get you on! www.dawntidecharterfishing.co.uk

Report on-board Galloper
Thankfully the fishing has been pretty good inshore on some of the windy days lately. The lads saw some decent rays amongst the whiting and dogfish along with some decent bass for the time of year and so close in. It's good to know that we can put you on some quality fish in most conditions now. There have been bass on most trips lately and as of today you can keep two per angler per day until the end of December (should you be lucky enough to catch them).

Fishing Report by Rich Ward
on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
1 Apr 2024 by Rich Ward
Report on-board Shy-Torque III
We managed to get to sea both days over this last weekend.
Mixed fortunes for the guys on board.
On Saturday, Shamick, his wife Eveline and their two friends had chartered the boat for themselves and we struggled with the fishing all day to be fair.
Conditions weren’t ideal at the start of the day either with a fresh SSW blowing, lifting the lines at angles unsuitable for the job.
The fresher breezes always hindering the fishing on the drift.
At the end of the day we had boated just 7 Codling, a few Pouting and a couple of Whiting.
Nevertheless, even with the poor fishing, we maintained the good banter and the four of them really enjoyed the day with some good sunshine and mild temperatures for a change!
Yesterday’s team were welcomed with some good clear skies and very light winds.
Whilst we waited for the 7.0am bridge to open, we chatted about the previous days fishing and the options for the day.
I said that the offshore marks didn’t really fish too well either the last time out there which was over a week ago, but if they fancied it, we could go investigate those areas again.
They were all up for it so off we went.
We marched out to a strip of ground 20 miles East of the harbour which my Dad and me used to fish, know as the “Hills”
A good long strip which is around 1 mile long on the ebb tide.
On the first drift across it (not the full 1 mile) we had boated over a dozen fish (all small) but nevertheless, a dozen!
After the previous day this was great, with the rods twitching all the time!!
Up and down the drift produced fish every time, some more than others granted, and by the end of the day Gary Jones and me reckoned the count must be nudging 100 fish.
A good few “doubles” coming aboard too.
The usual undersized fish being safely returned.
We didn’t see a fish much over 4lb but the numbers made up for the lack in sizes.
Nice to hit a mark where you can sit and pick away all day without moving.
A distinct contrast on Saturdays efforts!
Like we always say, never 2 days alike in this game.
We are now looking forward to getting back to that area on our next trip out on Wednesday hopefully if the weather permits.
Cheers for now everyone and keep a tight line wherever you’re fishing.

There's been a few more hounds and bass showing closer in over the last few trips. The lads from Suffolk police had the most hounds lately with 14 for the day though nothing huge. The bass are increasing in numbers too and there are some nice rays coming out too. Of course if you are really lucky then you could catch a whiting or dogfish!
Still a few spaces over the Easter weekend if you want to join us and plenty more space over the coming weeks.

Just a little reminder of what the offshore trips can produce from brightlingsea in the spring. These pictures are some of last year's fish but this year's trips are in full swing and I will report on those at the end of the season as usual so it's no good waiting for reports before booking. As well as spurs we can catch smooth hounds, thornback ray, bass, cod and even things like blonde rays on these trips. All sorts of species can show which keeps it interesting between the doggies and whiting. Our best day last year was 64 spurs and lots around the 20lb mark. I offer full boat bookings or individual spaces and have availability both offshore and on general trips in the coming weeks so please get in touch. No other local boats can offer the same track record on these trips as I can.

Had some great fishing again this week for the time of year!
Latest round of the Piscary Super League were 2 totally different days.On the Thursday we decided to go offshore, fishing wasn't as good as the day before when we had quite a few Spurs and Bullhuss but they did have 9 species including Spurs, Bullhuss,3 Bearded Rockling, Congers and Rays. Top 3 in the points were
1st Matt Pitter 114
2nd Luke Allen 108
3rd Kim Bowden 98
The next day conditions weren't quite as good, so we stayed inshore which made for a much better match with an unbelievable 19 species, smashing all the records for March, we had Mackerel,Bream , Plaice,3 species of Ray, 2 Turbot and 5 Brill! Top 3 in the points
1st Gary Young 222

March has really kicked the fishing off with the hounds and bass being a little early this year and coming up already in good numbers! Most trips averaging 20+ Hounds a trip with the occasional bonus bass. Now the crab are starting to peel it’s only going to get better with this weather. Remember crab is available on all trips and will give you that extra edge over everyone else.
