    Report on-board Predator

    What a warm one!

    Hot hot but lucky we had a good sea breeze to keep us cooler.

    Strong tides which made it a bit harder but we did have a few smoothhounds and Harry had two cracking bites inc one that spun the rod holder around!
    And he was bitten off clearly!

    We thinking a big tope as recently small tope have been getting caught inshore.
    So I put out a tope rig with a large bait but nothing caught on that.
    Thanks for everyone who came and rebooked for tope and bass trips.

    Cheers all.
    Great to see some new faces and returning ones as well.
    James and Harry

    Great news, we've just had the email confirmation that we have successfully secured a permit for recreational bluefin tuna again this year. We have a few bookings already pencilled in to confirm but still have dates and spaces available. If you want to join us this year please send me a message to let me know you are interested and if you would like individual spaces or to book the boat. we are planning to head down there from 26/08-03/10 currently though we might add more dates if these fill fast enough.
    We are lucky enough to be able to offer several options to catch them with the fighting chair and 4 outfits for that, stand up gear or heavy spinning gear if we believe you are capable enough.
    It's best to contact me on 07956411528
    I must say I'm really looking forward to it and hopefully you are too.

    Still plenty of hounds around and the bass numbers are up slightly. Hopefully they will keep increasing as the numbers are down on this time last year. Prawn is the hot bait at the moment.

    Report on-board Galloper

    I thought I'd better post some pictures from our general trips rather than keep posting just bass.
    Of course we been catching plenty of other stuff too from pouting and dogfish through to tope and stingrays mixed in with the bass, hounds and thornback rays on our general trips.
    The weather has been fantastic too so smiles all round. This hot weather has seen a few more stingrays showing too. I really do enjoy fishing when we don't know what might come up next. It's one of the great attractions of sea angling to me.
    It's also nice to have a run of general trips in between as they are generally more relaxed and less taxing than the long days offshore chasing bass and tope day after day (not that I want it any other way).
    I have a couple of spaces on our last tope trips of the year this week as well as spaces offshore bass fishing.
    Next spaces are
    01/07- boat available for groups
    02/07- tope fishing 1 space @ £100pp
    04/07- offshore bass fishing 5 spaces

  • 23/06/2025 Fishing Report by Nick Bentley on Neverland (Levington Marina, Suffolk)

    Report on-board Neverland

    Monday’s trip was all about great company, lively fishing, and making memories, with a special shoutout to Nathan, who celebrated his birthday on board with us!

    With the forecast in mind, we headed to one of our tried-and-tested sheltered marks, where conditions were just right to get rods bending. For those new to boat fishing, a bit of guidance went a long way - and it wasn’t long before everyone was into fish.

    Eight different species were caught, including thornback ray, tope, and a conger eel, adding plenty of excitement to the day. Great atmosphere, plenty of laughs, and a brilliant mix of anglers made it one to remember.

    We even had a glowing review come in after the trip - and that’s the kind of feedback we love to hear.

    Hampshire Police intended to have their annual open match this week unfortunately the weather had other ideas so the match was cancelled , however as most of the teams had a practice day booked for the day before, so it was decided last minute to have the match 1 day early.As you can imagine this didn't suit everyone but they still managed to have 42 anglers on 4 boats . The fishing was a bit tricky but still had a great day out with 17 species .Top 3 on each boat

    Report on-board Galloper

    The bass continue to hit the deck of the Galloper. They must be easy to catch coz even this numpty in the yellow wellies can manage to get them in between making tea and talking rubbish.
    On our general trips there's been loads of hounds around and some decent tish too. There's still a bit of variety in the form of dogfish, pouting, whiting, tope, stingrays and more to be caught on our general trips and even more variety offshore.
    With the fishing and weather playing ball we are very busy but have some availability for individuals and groups in the coming weeks.

    21 Jun 2025 by Allan Skinner

    Report on-board JFK TWO

    when these persistent winds allow us to get to the wrecks the fishing has been pretty good.yet at the moment the mackrel are a little patchy
    so we spent a little time making sure we had enougth mackrel from the first few wrecks before heading any further off
    thankfully we got plenty mackrel, and yes they were a little harder to find later on
    but if you tried for long enouth you did get them
    we picked fish up from all the wrecks one or two fish a drift. mostly chunky lings around 6-8lbs
    and a few cod
    after slack water we reached our intended main wreck for the day
    it didnt disappoint with 6 rods bending over straight into fish
    nice cod best 9lbs and lings into doublr figures
    next drift fish again and a nice ling at 15lbs
    followed next drift with another ling at 15lbs and steady fishing
    again a better stamp of fish coming aboard cod and ling
    ended up with around 60 -70 nice fish
