    Report on-board Brighton Lure Boat

    We have had over the past 2 days completely different days, a lot of miles for a small reward and fewer miles for better results, to me the charter business is all about ensuring the client is given the best opportunities to catch, be it in 5 metres or 50 metres of water, the resulting feeling for them is the same, and target species achieved.
    Today we ventured out and the target was Silvers, and this resulted, the good return of 28 in a 3-hour session, with an experienced pike fisherman aboard and accomplished chef to add into the mix we were in for fun-filled morning, and not forgetting the lemon drizzle cake Ryan produced halfway thru the session to boost our energy levels.
    The SPJ (slow pitch jigging) took a while for them both to get the technique but both did well, Ryan was first in with good fish, followed by Lee, the drifts started to become difficult with wind against tide.
    The Cheetha Marine boat soon got to grips and so did I with the right approach, the best drift produced 2 great fish (5 in total) yours truly with a 3.5lb and Ryan best fish of the day 6lb 10oz, Lee was getting to grips with the new style of fishing and hit into a good fish and landed, he said that’s his dinner sorted for the week, Ryan had another 3lb fish and that was our morning as the wind started to get up.
    A great morning out with the banter and cake and silvers ta boot, think we see both back very soon.

    8 Apr 2021 by Iain Barron

    Report on-board Brighton Lure Boat

    We had a venture out today into deep water, the Brighton Lure Boat with its superb handling and speed we were there in no time.
    What’s new, SPJ, Slow Pitch Jiggin, looks like your Mackie bashing but we’re not. Using differently designed metal lures, It’s not rocket science just a different way to catch, and that we did, couple of wrecks were like the Sunday car boot at top of the marina bit congested!!
    Malcolm was first in with a stunning fish new PB for Blurb , 10lb 9oz, next up yours truly with a 9lb plus fish.
    Forecast looking good next week, few spaces left to get on board ring 07541 645488

    Report on-board Brigand

    What a strange day. We cast-off in the midst of a snow shower under heavy skies and ended the day in the gentlest of breezes with the Sun on our back ..... and experienced everything in between! Wind was stronger than forecast offshore and with a big tide that just amplified the sea state, so for a while it was difficult fishing and rewards were just not worth the challenging conditions. A change of plan, course alteration and we were in business! Always great to see anglers battling doubles and we had 3 or 4 of those today, also dropped a couple but we will pick them up on Thursday��
    Paul and Andrew picked up last minute places aboard today’s trip and both landed double figure fish, think Paul had a couple.
    Crew, well what can I say, all lovely chaps and a huge thank you for your company today, always lovely to catch-up with those that fish regularly with us and I’m sure we will be seeing more of Paul & David in future.
    Highlight of the day....... The fantastic doubles and of course Bob’s Bakewell tarts!!
    We have 1 space available this Thursday for wrecking so if would like a go at these hard fighting Pollock on the offshore wrecks just get in touch.
    Best Wishes

    Another stunning day out on the water today with a wonderful crew. Conditions were as predicted and the very early start certainly paid dividends with a steady stream of good quality fish coming to the net. A little quiet over slack but as ebb kicked in we were off again.
    Thanks to the crew for the great company and the artisan food which was absolutely delicious.

    Great to blow the cobwebs away and get out onto the wrecks. Some fantastic fishing with Pollock to 15lb. A combination of the seasonal change and weather means that realistically we probably have another 5 trips to target fish of this quality before moving onto Bream and then Turbot.
    If you would like to join us please get in touch and we will do our best to accommodate.

  • 02/12/2020 Fishing Report by Iain Barron on Brighton Lure Boat (Brighton, East Sussex)

    2 Dec 2020 by Iain Barron

    Report on-board Brighton Lure Boat

    Brighton Lure Boat Tumultuous Tuesday, First on board was Mark, a first time out with us, and a recognised angler by his yellow hat and fishing reports from the Worthing Pier and fishing the walls on Brighton Marina. I know by Marks reports he was going to do well, which indeed he did.

    Brighton Lure Boat Tumultuous Tuesday moved swiftly out of the marina to be greeted by fantastic sunrise awaiting us, and with the calm seas the birds working well, I was anticipating a good day ahead. I set the boat up for the first drift across the reef what wind there was held us over the mark for longer than I expected, we got into the rhythm and skipper for a change was quickly into his first fish, within seconds mark was into his 1st, The size of the fish was all around 45cms and above, we were an hour into the session and I’m netting one for Mark, and my reel screeched offline, around 4 minutes we were greeted with the biggest fish of the day or was it. . . . . 73cms, weighed on the boat at 9lb 5oz, Magnificent specimen, having rested for a minute or two safely returned and swam away strong.

    We continued to drift the area and the fish were coming thick and fast, with the catch rate could we emulate Sunday and Thursday’s number’s, we decided to move on out to another area see if we could up the species number, which soon turned into Mackerel session but not for long as they were chasing this tiny wall of sprat, Mark hooked a Mackie with a mouthful of them!! Mark was on his 33rd fish when I said let’s go to a place that I know from the past winters produce codling!!

    We arrived and the biggest note was the breeze was getting up, The unpredictable sea we set up of the rocky area and we had spent about 20 minutes when I decided to move again over another patch of ground that has produced, I was first in, not a codling, but around 1lb tub gurnard, still good size for where we were fishing. We moved on again, to the last chance saloon area as the breeze was beginning to increase, we spent about an hour around the area trying different methods of lure fishing to entice the unicorns, but to no avail, instead, we both had bass caught almost at the same time, both around the 3lb mark.

    We returned to where we started the earlier session, our first drops produced fish straight away, Mark was edging towards 40 for the day, and he hit into his best fish of the day 55cm Bass which was his 40th and last one of the day. The wind and tide were making the drifts awkward that we had to reposition a few times the ebbing tide and wind causing a strange vortex rather than go sideways with the tide we went straight south! The last 15 minutes we tried to stay over the reef, but being pushed and buffeted like we were was not good for the ageing muscles and bones.

    Brighton Lure Boat second best day of the year, Mark ended up with 40 yours truly 27. We hope Mark enjoyed his day on the Brighton Lure Boat and it was good fun from my part for having angler onboard who absolutely loves lure fishing, throw the banter in over the day makes it more enjoyable for all, For me, being out fished by the client is what the game is all about, catching 60 odd Bass, dozen mackerel you can say was a good day all round, the reason I love doing this is the enjoyment on peoples faces when they catch no matter how big or small the fish.

    29 Nov 2020 by Iain Barron

    Report on-board Brighton Lure Boat

    Brighton Lure Boat Super Sunday! 29 November 2020

    Brighton Lure Boat Super Sunday! First up was Steve, a first time out with us, and seasoned angler, as he has had the delights of being out with other skippers over the years from Brighton. I knew we had a guy on board who knew his stuff with flying collars and booms, but he had never fished with light lines and lures, Testament to Stephen for understanding how we fish on the Brighton lure Boat, and was quickly into his first fish of many. . . . .

    The forecast was for East North East winds up to 16knts at times with the wind dropping, we set out of the marina and were greeted a fantastic wintery sunrise, I was hoping after Thursday’s Bass fest could the same happen again? The first thing we noticed and looking for was where the birds were feeding and diving, always a good indicator if fish are around, they were in abundance on the east side we went in underneath the foray at least 50 plus gulls apparently if you get pooped on its meant to be lucky!!!


    Steve with Brighton Lure Boat 50th of the morning.

    Steve was first on with a great fish around the 5lb mark, the wind and tide were holding us over the reef well in the first hour, that soon changed once the tide turned. This didn’t stop the feeding hungry silvers within the first-hour score count was 16, with some great looking fish and one for the table.

    We followed the birds for about 30 minutes east of the marina and the odd fish coming in well to the net. We visited the same area as Thursdays good day, and we weren’t disappointed, the first drift across the reef produced 12 all around the 2-3lb mark, were on own for the first hour, and then joined by two other boats, who also captured a few fish and joined in the fun.
    The wind and tide were making the drifts awkward that we had to reposition a few times. When the drift was on the right spot, the fish duly obliged, 5-6 fish per drift was keeping us busy. Then Steve has the one odd fish which very was the huge Pout, The same place we had the Tub Gurnard on our previous visit; we also had Mackerel which were beginning to show on the sounder and the hooks at an alarming rate. We upped throttle and time to move on; we went out to the small wreck, the tide was coming thru around 1.5knt, which made life very hard to control the lure. We then moved back east to the marina where we found our 50th fish of the day, stunning bass 68cm.

    Brighton Lure Boat Super Sunday on the Bass

    We finished the 4-hour session on 57 in total and certainly makes you have the wow factor and feeling good that you have achieved the goal of the client who went back the A23 with two lovely fish to share with his very grateful sister, and the fact that he was very willing to learn completely different technique’s in a short space of time he had never used before sea fishing got his rewards, we look forward to welcoming Steve back and his daughter for a session early next year.

    The Brighton Lure boat is back out tomorrow for another session on the Brighton high seas, to get on board contact 07739732332 or via the booking form on the website.

    Report on-board Brighton Lure Boat

    Brighton Lure Boat Inshore Bass Fest 27 November 2020

    Brighton Lure Boat had not been out for a while due to the winds, and unfortunate accident getting off the boat!

    We looked forward to welcoming James out with us as first-timer and keen Kayak fisherman or is it now not correct to say that!!! We were met with breezy conditions, clarity was ok the further out we went, and James request was not to blank (Bass) as he had on the floaty thing he uses, as he is a very keen angler and was willing to listen and learn which I hope he has I was hopeful of a good session. The first 40 minutes we moved around the western part of Brighton reefs, we picked up only 4 small ones, it was time move.

    The decision to move rapidly to another area proved to be right and wow, omg, what happened in the next 2 1/2 half hours was stunning we already had 4 Bass but not really any size, so we advanced slowly over the area in anticipation of some action and bendy rods!

    Brighton Lure Boat Let The Fest Begin
    Our first drift across in the NE winds was slow due to the tide but this didn’t stop our silver hungry fish, we had around 6 on the first drift. What happened on the second drift I have never experienced, James was first into a fish around 2.5lb, and then the brother and sisters got involved, we had 14 in 9-minute drift, it was a case who get there’s unhooked the fastest and get back down before the drift ended!

    The words fish on went out the window, the next drift produced our first ever squid, perhaps some reinvestment needed and buy some squid jigs although this was caught on a metal lure, Brighton Lure Boat first, another tick off the list. James on the same drift hit into larger fish which sadly wouldn’t stay hooked, he dropped back down and had yet another 2lbr plus.

    Brighton Lure Boat-Lure Change
    Brighton Lure Boat 1
    50 up for Brighton Lure Boat
    I suggested to James he tries the meatal lures, he duly did and again first in with a fish, the N easterly had got up again and was pushing us out quicker, so we changed to slightly heavier metals and they seemed to bring the fish on again.

    Our 12th drift across we was up to big 50 and the 51st fish landed was lovely Tub Gurnard caught on a metal, whilst the silver continued to feed we hoped of larger fish but it wasn’t to be, although we had numerous takes on every drift the smaller ones seem to dictate the area.

    Brighton Lure Boat–The Wind of Change
    We were beginning to think the elusive ton was a possibility, but the wind of change happened more the tide ebbed, from N Easterly to more due North, this didn’t stop the fish, averaging around 4/5 a drift, the last 3 drifts we undertook we had to readjust the approach as the wind was catching the more stern on then side on , and then the last drift produced minimal contact and 2 fish only.

    t was time to turn the Brighton Lure Boat back towards the marina and get warmed up and looking back on the morning’s session it was great fun, always hoping the larger would come to the fore, but alas not on this occasion, the total 73.

    New record to be aimed at the next time Brighton Lure Boat hits the high seas.

  • 18/10/2020 Fishing Report by Iain Barron on Brighton Lure Boat (Brighton, East Sussex)

    18 Oct 2020 by Iain Barron

    Report on-board Brighton Lure Boat

    Sunday Brighton Lure Boat Catch report.
    Our first two guys on today’s morning trip, were Paul & Ben, both seasoned anglers , pressure was on to produce!!
    We dint have to travel to get to grips with which a schoolies fest , 6 landed within 20 minutes, all around 40cm.
    We moved out to small wreck , with wind behind the tide pushing us too quick, upped fish sticks and moved inshore .
    This was hopefully the plan for it to produce bigger fish, which sadly it didn’t happen for me and the clients, we had another 2 Bass again just under the 42cm. Ben did lose a descent fish on the way up as did Paul later on in the session.
    I take it personally when I can’t get the results I’m looking for, in the end both Paul & Ben caught and enjoyed the experience.
    As for me tadge more research needed as to why only the smaller ones on this occasion. 11 in total plus mackerel and the annoying cuttle fish wrecking the lures. . . . .

    Perhaps, the incoming weather put the bigger silvers off, but with cuttlefish and Mackerel around in abundance , rubber was not on the menu. . .
