Report on-board Brigand
Bass fishing out of Brighton today with plenty of good fish for Steve & his crew.
We are starting to do more Bassing out of Brighton and will continue right through into the Winter months when it can be at its best.
We're using a combination of lures and live-baits, both of which were effective today.
If you would like to join us on one of these trips where we are targetting the bigger fish get in touch via WhatsApp 07572065543.
Best wishes

Fishing Report by Nick Gough
on Skylark (Scarborough, North Yorkshire)
14 Aug 2025 by Nick Gough
Report on-board Skylark
Started off fishing close to the harbour producing whiting and mackerel
Travelled further afield with the anglers catching a few codling, mackerel, whiting, pouting a tub gurnard (we haven't caught one since 2014).
After fishing for a few hours the tides started to build so we anchored up.
Which produced more cod, a nice 5lb Pollock, a 5lb ling, loads more pouting, mackerel and several lesser spotted dogfish
Wildlife we had several sightings of bottle nose dolphins passing by, the occasional seal and pretty much every sea bird which can be seen this time of year.
Overall today the 8hr trip we turned into a species hunt having a go in the sands aswel which we hardly do.
Overall the customers had 11 different species. The young lad on the trip managed 8 different species himself which is a very good effort.
Overall the customers caught
cod, Pollock, ling, whiting, tub gurnard, mackerel, weaver, pouting, ballen wrasse, lesser spotted dogfish, and a dab
When we returned with the 8hr trip is was a swift swap over and back out again with a 3hr trip
As this pretty much followed on from the first trip catching mackerel, pouting, codling, and a cracking Pollock weighing 5lb 3oz View Boats Page

Today we had a 8hr and 3hr trip
We started off running a few miles and fished on the drift with tides coming onto slack water.
Fishing was steady away catching a few small codling, mackerel and pouting.
As the tide increased we dropped anchor which produced a good selection of better fish.
Best fish today was a cracking 8lb 14oz Pollock caught by Alan.
This fish is the new heaviest fish of the month so far.
3hr trip
We started fishing some rock marks close to the harbour catching a selection of Whiting, mackerel, coalfish, and codling.
Overall everybody caught and had something to take home View Boats Page

Report on-board DAWN TIDE II
Hi guys
Well the exceptional bassing continues through August the lures & baits both working well with a mixed stamp of fish different each day local & offshore!
Lately there been a fair amount of fish coming over the rail around the 60-65cm with many anglers hitting there new PB twice in one trip!
The main focus for us now will be bass as the nights draw in & we start to venture further offshore.
As many of you know this signals the start of some of the best bassing you will ever experience just look back at my previous aug, sept, oct, nov reports its unreal
Along side the bass fishing we have seen plenty of hounds when we have bait fished along with the odd stingray, skate & tope.
But really & truly now we will be pushing further off now as much as the forcast allows until the season ends
Next availability is end oct start nov i just updated the calendar but keep An eye out for cancellations you never know it dose happen
Also next years diary is open & already filling
Thanks everyone
See you all soon

Report on-board LADY OF THE LAKE III
Fishing Report – Sunday 10th – 8 Hour Wrecking Trip
Crew of 8 on board today. Wasted no time – got the 8 o’clock lock and punched straight out to sea, heading for some of my favourite wrecks.
First two wrecks didn’t produce much – just the odd gurnard and a surprise mullet about a foot long. Sadly, it never made it over the rail – fell off when it was already out of the water. Shame they didn’t wait for the landing net! We also lost another pollock right on the surface.
Barry turned the tide, though, hooking into a nice bass, then we followed it up with another on the next drift. We also had some monster mackerel coming aboard. Plenty of hits on the lures, a few solid takes, and a few fish landed – but it was hard work today.
The crew gave it everything. Not every day is the same out here, but that’s fishing.

Fishing Report by Andy Savage
on Sea Urchin IIl (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
10 Aug 2025 by Andy Savage
Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
Today we had a great bunch aboard Sea Urchin, for a run out in some beautiful Summer sunshine……
We had a building 5.5m Spring Tide to work with, which would mean that the boat would drift quickly when the tide was up to full strength, making the fishing a bit more challenging. That said; we still had two periods of slack water, which would allow us to try a few wrecks. We started off the day catching a few fresh Mackerel for bait, then with the tide almost being slack, tried a couple of inshore wrecks.
The first one produced nothing in two drifts, so we moved on. It’s essential to maximise slack water on the big tides, as the tide turns so much quicker, giving less time to fish in prime conditions. We fared a bit better on the second wreck, taking 4 or 5 small Codling each drift. We didn’t get anything massive, but Martin Gadomski had a couple of better Codling with the biggest being 6lb.
Once the tide was away we moved out fishing rough ground at 3, 5, 7 & 9 miles. Even though the lines weren’t streaming badly, the ground fishing was hard work today. We fished a mixture of Shads and bait. The shads worked better the further out we got, perhaps suggesting a clarity issue at the bottom. The nine mile ground was definitely the most productive giving a few Codling each drift. Once again Martin Gadomski found the biggest fish of the day with a 9lb Ling on a baited muppet trace.
We planned to run back inshore for the second slack water to fish a couple more wrecks to end the day. Unfortunately it didn’t quite turn out that way as we experienced some engine trouble and had to nurse ourselves back in when (what looks like) the throttle cable snapped.
Thanks to everyone for being so understanding and for being excellent company. Hopefully see you again soon. View Boats Page
