Dave Metcalf and crew joned Flamer IV for the first of their 2018 two day Angling Breaks. Both days were spent fishing at anchor on banks which produced numerous Rays along with Smooth Hounds, Congers, Whiting and the usual Dogfish and Pouts. Pictured is Jim Birnie with his 12Ib 9oz Undulate Ray. The lads used downtide and uptide methods with squid and mackerel cocktail baits. They are looking forward to their next 2 day Angling Break on Flamer IV in May.
Weymouth Angling Breaks - Book Now, Don't miss Out,*** NOW TAKING BOOKINGS FOR 2018 ***
A few days away fishing out of Weymouth along with the social side is a nice trip to do.The variety of fishing and the amount of different species caught at Weymouth is probably second to none.There are plenty of places to stay which are angler friendly and some excellent places to wine and dine around the harbour and in Weymouth Town centre.
If you want to try a Weymouth Angling Break then contact me, I cater for whole boat charters and individuals.
Planning your trip well in advance is essential you need to arrange your boat booking and your accommodation as early as possible to avoid disappointment, some of my regular groups plan their trips at least 12 months in advance, this allows them to discuss with me the best tides for the type of fishing they are targeting. -

My first trip of 2018 took place with two anchor sessions on two different banks which produced some good action with Blonde Rays, Spurdogs, Conger, Whiting etc. Paul Milkins landed his Personal Best Spurdog weighing 17Ib. Rick Hawkins landed several Blonde Rays and lost a Big one, Congers and Whiting. Rick had an almighty tug on his tackle while Whiting fishing and when he reeled in a good size Whiting it had been bitten in half by a hungry fish with very sharp teeth. Pictured is Paul Milkins with his Personal Best 17Ib Spurdog.
My next Reef/Bank Trip with Places Available is on January 21st 2018 which will also be a Winter Species Competition with trophies and prizes to be won.
