Chinook III Charter Fishing Report – August

The last fortnight has seen some unsettled weather but the fishing has been excellent.

There are a lot more Smoothounds around and plenty of them are over 10lb, sport has been hectic at times with multiple hook ups and screaming reels! These fish are the move all the time while feeding and when hooked they charge off like a train, great fun.

There have been some nice Bass around, more than last year with quite a few doubles reported and plenty returned alive, most days we are seeing at least one good Bass and some days 3 or 4, most fall for a squid bait but a fresh or frozen mackerel chunk works well.

Talking of mackerel, we have had a lot at times with anglers getting full strings every drop but as always with mackerel fishing you can go to the same spot next day and nothing, they have moved again but great fun while it lasts.

There are a lot more Thornbacks moving back in to all areas offshore, these summer fish are really pulling in the clear water and are much more fun than when caught in coloured water, sometimes it is a job to tell them from other fish if the tide is not running.

There have been a few more Stingrays caught this year than in recent years, possibly because of less commercial  activity, most are caught on ragworm, mackerel or squid.

Prospects are excellent, September is our best month for Bass fishing when we can actually target them more effectively as they shoal up before leaving us for the year, the hounds will stay around until well into October and there will be good numbers of thornbacks.

About the Chinook The place you need to come for a great day out fishing the Thames Estuary from Bradwell on Sea in Essex with one of the most experianced and friendly skippers on the East Coast. Whether you are a novice or experienced angler, they cater for both.

Due to an upturn in demand we have purchased a newer boat, she is a purpose built angling vessel, twin 330hp turbo diesels with a cruise of 20 knots, enclosed crew cab with seating for everyone, on deck toilet and a walk around island wheelhouse, she is a superb angling vessel, coded for 10 anglers.
