About the Skipper:

Skipper Andy started this boating and fishing journey at the age of 16 years old having experienced having the opportunity to test and own fishing boats mainly fishing the English Channel and some of the Thames estuary I come from a fishing back ground so I decided to try and help other people enjoy this sport by running my own charter boat it’s not just about catching it’s the whole experience on the water .

  • 5-star luc espitalier-noel (24/05/2024)

    What a fantastic day on the water! Andy and his lovely wife were great. they treated us like royalty and, successfully, made every effort for a remarkable trip. He's super relaxed but totally on it. He supplied all the gear and knew exactly where to go. After half an hour of hunting around, we were on top of the fish. Caught loads all day! We all caught well over our quota and released lots of fish...lots. We all went home having had a superb day, AND with a great catch. I've been on many charters over the years..... this was by far the most enjoyable.
    Many thanks skipper. 10 out of 10; no question!! ( I'll be back ).

    Skippers Reponse: Hi group/ luc so glad you and the group enjoy the day that’s one off the reasons we do this it gives people the opportunity to get out on the water and catching fish is the icing on the cake. Once again many thanks for the compliment.

  • 5-star Ramona Sabadasu (18/05/2024)

    Was an experience for a birthday surprise for my cousin. Andy and his wife helped a lot with it to happen (few changes of plans and not the best weather). We enjoyed the fishing, the journey and all the fish chached.
    Thank you very much for everithing. I recomanded 100 % and we plan to go back.

    Skippers Reponse: Thank you for the review and I’m glad that you enjoyed the trip as you said the weather would have been better but hey we can’t control that ! If only we could once again thank you for for your company. Regards Andy la dolce vita charters

  • 5-star WENQING QIU (03/09/2023)

    It was a very good fishing experience. Although my friend and I were a little seasick that day, the captain's wife was very caring and gave us pills as well as hot tea to help us get better. The guests on the same boat were also very friendly. My friends and I ended up catching a total of 15 fish and we had a great time.

    Skippers Reponse: Great to have you guys onboard fishing proved to be very challenging especially with a strong easterly wind but i think the tea certainly smoothed your stomachs . Many thanks for your company.

  • 5-star Stuart Morgan (21/07/2023)

    Had an absolutely brilliant day's fishing with Andy and Lynn. We'd asked to go for bream and they duly obliged and threw in a few spur dog, strap conger, pout and a few other species. With 5 of us fishing, the boat had plenty of fishing room and Andy prefers it that way too. Perfect.
    The weather did blow up in the afternoon, forcing us in, but we'd caught enough and had a great laugh too. We will be back for sure. Great boat, great skipper and Lynn was brilliant too!

  • 5-star Stuart Morgan (21/07/2023)

    Brilliant day’s fishing with Andy and Lynn. We wanted to go for a few Bream and we certainly got what we wanted…plus a few spurdog, strap conger and some big mackerel too. Even though the weather blew up a bit in the afternoon, we had a great time. There were 5 of us and had plenty of space…..which is why we booked. O5her skippers shoe horn you in and that results in too many tangles.
    We caught loads, had a good laugh and will be back!

    Skippers Reponse: Hi stu , glad you all had a great day it was unfortunate the weather had to spoil all whole day but hey that’s the forecast for you .
