    Report on-board Crusader Charters LTD

    The winter here aboard Crusader has been on fire!
    We have regularly returned to port from the offshore wrecks with decent hauls of Pollack ling and bass.
    Sidewinder lures of all shapes and sizes are accounting for the majority of our catches.
    The best Pollack on the winter so far came last week with an absolute brute of 21-8! Gone are the days of several 20+ fish gracing the catch bin so to see such a beast is awesome!
    Bass fishing is on top form with most anglers catching at least their daily limit of 2 fish per day. Many more are being returned each day. Top of the table so far this season is a belter of 12lb 2oz to local rod Keith.
    Ling are showing up in good numbers too. Several ling over 20lb have shown themselves this week alone!
    Check out our availability over the coming months on the calendar here on CBUK.
    Alongside our charters we begin preparations for the upcoming shark season and tuna season. New kit, new techniques and an all refreshed eagerness to get going!!!
    See you out there soon ��
