Fresh Brighton Fishing Reports

What can i say about the trip today wow what a result. We have recently changed harbour to Eastbourne from Newhaven. And the fishing has been a dramatic change from port. We are enjoying alot more different species of fish. Now we have got lots of reef to fish. What a day we had today with the Pollock and codling.

Today has been a dirty day with ink galore and lots of happiness ☺️ if you fancy going squid fishing. Then give us a call we promise you won't regret it.

So this is a bit of a sudden. We have just become the 2023 british conger champion. And what a day. All i can say is well done to my crew you made it look easy. We smashed it. Absolutely amazing experience 41 fish to nearly 70 lbs well done to everyone who entered into the comp and a big thanks to the organisers. Look forward to doing it all ober again in 2024

Catch report Kestrels warrior 6 I Today I only had 2 people who have fished loads heading out to the banks. we got straight to work haling some nice tope topping almost 60lbs again on live bait. As the day went on we caught an array of different fish. Dogfish gurnard tope thornbacks and undulate rays. Once the tide dropped off we moved closer to shore to fish at anchor over a wreck were we caught 4 congers to 30 lbs by this time I was so tired and my phone was dead so was unable to take photos. The rest of the week looks good. Stay safe out there and tight lines Captain ant ?

Fishing report for Brighton area Follow us on Facebook **hidden content** So sorry I've not done a post for a while as I've been super busy but hear is a catch report for you. So we had some fantastic wether over the bank holiday and the fishing was as good Going with what I thaught was a good idea at the time we decided to head out to the plaice grounds. And I have to say the plaice are definitely in. We started off with using the trusty 2 hook flowing trace made by zepco. these rigs are awesome well made rigs. Bait of choise was the trusty rag worm supplied by tools and tackle in Newhaven. Starting with a drift of around 1.1 knots we put the baits down and we were straight in to the fish the crew onboard had a bet going which I obviously joined in with. Average size of plaice were small around 33cm for a while I was in the leed with a 39cm plaice and the all of a sudden a monster of the deep poped it's head up . As the day went on the stamp of fish changed from a 35cm avrage to 48cm avrage. Finly found some ground with proper lumps on it . I decided to stay that extra bit longer for the guys and we ended up breaking the boat record With an astonishing 155 plaice in total with an average size of 48 cm and 10 fish over 50 cm the biggest of them being 65cm what a fish and what a day. Till the next time Captain ?
