I run a full time charter boat operating seven days a week from the Essex port of Brightligsea and can cater for partys of up to ten anglers or up to twenty anglers with our sister boat the Sophie Lea who we work closely with.
We also cater for individuals and welcome ladies and children although children must be supervised with a guardian or parent.
Baits can be supplied live and dead, all live baits ordered must be payed for if bad weather stops safe sailing, this is at the discretion of the skipper, a small deposit of £70 is required to book the boat.
Rods and tackle hire can be provided as well as free tuition if required.
We operate in the outer North Thames estuary where miles of shole and sand banks provide fantastic fishing. In the winter (October through to March) you can expect Cod, Skate,Whiting, etc. In the spring (April through to September) Bass Smoothhounds,Tope,Thornback Skate, Mackrel etc can all be caught. In the month of June we can offer tope fishing. Fish sizes up to seventy pounds are not unusual, although some fish we recommend release after catch including Tope and Hounds but all other species can be taken home as long as they are above legal size limits.
Boarding could not be easier, with a floating jetty and no tide restrictions just step aboard, a car park is conveniently located nearby.
