The Banks have been producing some good fishing for Turbot, Brill and Rays - with Blonde, Small Eyed, Undulate, Thornback and Spotted Rays all being caught.
The Reefs have also been producing some good fishing for Black Bream, Tope, Rays, Congers and Bull Huss. We also had our first "Shark Attack" of the year were we had a Porebeagle Shark on for 15 minutes which made some searing runs before the end tackle gave up, great fun to watch though.
My next Reef/Bank Trip with places available is on August 5th - Don't Miss Out ***

Nick Collier on his first trip on Flamer IV landed a "Grand Slam" of flatfish, catching his first ever Turbot a Plaice and a Brill. Nick is pictured with his 4Ib Brill. Nick and his friends caught a variety of species while drifting the famous Shambles Bank which included Turbot, Brill, Plaice, Blonde Ray, Lesser Weaver, Dogfish, Mackerel and a Conger which we don't catch very often on that mark. The successful baits were a combination of Mackerel and Squid strips and Launce fillets.
My next trip with places for individuals - are on August 5th and 6th, -
