    Report on-board Brighton Lure Boat

    Pirates Spotted On The Brighton Seas 3 September 2020

    We had the great honor of La Barbe Bleue, join us for some lure fishing on the Brighton Seas. For those not knowing your French, La Barbe Bleue translates to Blue Beard. He is also known as Simon, top gardener, and keeper of Brighton Marina, he’s the guy that makes the Marina look colorful.

    We thankfully had great weather on the Brighton Seas for the first few hours and was hopeful of good return as of the previous day. Well, the silvers didn’t disappoint, back to where yesterday’s feast happened, and the first cast yours truly was straight into a bass, quickly followed by Simon. He was well chuffed that 10 minutes in we were 2 on the board already. The next cast he hits into another Bass, which was landed, photo opportunity kissed and put back, could this be another brilliant day.

    Chasing The Bass and Mackerel Into the Reefs of the Brighton Seas

    The Brighton Lure Boat moved west on the Brighton Seas to another reef where I had success earlier in the week. We positioned up and the first drift produced another good fish, Which didn’t disappoint. Simon all the time getting takes even on the drop once I showed him a small technique which he hadn’t seen before. The sounder was showing well with baitfish, and we had around 5/6 shoals of mackerel driving than to the surface and making the sea boil. I did wonder if this put the bass off our tiny lures, we had a couple more fish.

    The breeze started to increase and our sunny day became overcast dull and grey. Which for some reason made the fish disappear the score count 7 landed 2 lost at the net and 5 drop-offs.
