  • 5-star Matt McLoughlin (20/10/2019)

    Great day out - Made to feel very welcome and some lovely fish were caught. Being a novice sea angler, I was well taken care of and was able to catch some nice fish.

    Would absolutely recommend.

    Fairly new to sea fishing so with limited knowledge booked Wave Dancer for myself and 15 yr old nephew. All I can say is we will definitely be booking our next trip with Chris. All the help and tips we needed to catch, Chis consistently put us over the fish and nothing was to much trouble. Plenty caught including smoothound tope dogs whiting and ray. I would recommend Chris on Wave Dancer to anyone. Thanks for a great day.

    Trip 2 was a short over the tide trip again on a ray hunt. Young Finn was the first to bag a ray. As he started to real it in you could hear John say “hurry up” within in 3 minutes. When finn landed his 7lb ray John must have said it to him half a dozen times. Thornback backrays startd coming over the rail steadily for next hour or so to the sound of John saying “hurry up”. Then John finally caught one which he took his time reel in to the chorus of “hurry up” a great trip over the tide was had and we caught seven rays and a doggie. The family enjoyed their trip so much they have booked a full trip again already. Looking forward to having stu and his family on board again in August.ww

    It feels like an eternity since I have written a report so here goes. The first of three trips this bank holiday weekend started with a couple of no shows a 04:00 which left us with just 3 anglers on board today. Rather than disappoint 3 very eager anglers off we went into the river on a ray hunt to warm us up. Fred jimmy and sneaky mick warmed up nicely with 10. Off we went looking for smoothies, initially we found more rays the first of many doggies and I have never been happier to see a doggie ever. Fred then called for the net to land not only his first smooth hound but the boats. I am not sure how many rays and doggies we caught but it was alot.

    Unfortunately I was away this weekend so missed the trip on Saturday (gutted) Karl took the boat out with new crew member guy and they weren’t disappointed. Ten minutes in and the first cod is on followed by bags of whiting and dabs. Fish of the day was 11.5 cod.
