I quite fancy doing a bit of sea fishing, I'm normally a coarse fisherman but have done some boat fishing when I was younger.

 

I live in London, where would be a decent and fairly cheap place to go?

 

How much am I likely to pay?

Do you drive ?

 

If you do go on a singles day with one of the Langstone skippers Hayling Island I would recomend Glen Cairns the skipper of Valkyrie He has a beatiful boat and is Very resonable :thumbs:

Someone once said to me "Dont worry It could be worse." So I didn't, and It was!

I made a vow today, to never again argue with an Idiot they have more expieriance at it than I so I always seem to lose!

Regarding Langstone Harbour -

 

Boats average around £250 - 300 midweek (shared by 8, 10 or 12).

Weekends add £50.

 

Some boats like 'Torbay Belle' (Thursday) still offer 'Individual Days (8hrs) at around £30/35 which, in this case (TB), includes bait!

 

Wrecking is by negotiation depending on numbers and duration. Reckon on £550 - £600 for a full boat and my experience is such that I don't like a full boat for wreck fishing. 8 or 9 is going to work out at £70 - 75 each!

 

Prices are very much a case of 'by negotiation' because of the longer trips required from Langstone to make a deep water wreck compared to somewhere like Brighton.

 

PM me for boats and phone numbers.

Vagabond may be able to help you with this. They do a fair amount of sea fishing since that is Norma's favorite venue rather than coarse fishing.

I'd be looking for just a single seat on a boat as I don't know enough friends that would come with me, and I couldn't afford to charter a boat by myself.

 

Yes I do drive, and would be happy to drive for about an hour/hour and a half to get to the boat.

 

I'm not too fussed about wreck fishing, at least not at the moment, perhaps when I've a bit more experience I'd give it a go.

Thanks guys,

 

I'm picking up some boat tackle next week so I'll be looking at going some time fairly soon. Thanks to those who pm'd me too. I'll give the Happy Hooker day ago when it starts in October - although I may call it something else when I tell the missus I'm going! :-)

 

I was surprised no-one recommended any Essex or Kent based boats, is the fishing not so good there at the moment?

Hi Fished folkestone for many years each month, some nice bass in the summer codling etc in the winter with the odd cod being caught. The real fishing is at weymouth and beyond for me.

Free to choose apart from the ones where the trust poked their nose in. Common eel. tope. Bass and sea bream. All restricted.


New for 2016 TAT are the main instigators for the demise of the u k bass charter boat industry, where they went screaming off to parliament and for the first time assisting so called angling gurus set up bass take bans with the e u using rubbish exaggerated info collected by ices from anglers, they must be very proud.

Upgrade, the door has been closed with regards to anglers being linked to the e u superstate and the failed c f p. So TAT will no longer need to pay monies to the EAA anymore as that org is no longer relevant to the u k . Goodbye to the europeon anglers alliance and pathetic restrictions from the e u.

Angling is better than politics, ban politics from angling.

Consumer of bass. where is the evidence that the u k bass stock need angling trust protection. Why won't you work with your peers instead of castigating them. They have the answer.

Recipie's for mullet stew more than welcomed.

Angling sanitation trust and kent and sussex sea anglers org delete's and blocks rsa's alternative opinion on their face book site. Although they claim to rep all.

new for 2014. where is the evidence that the south coast bream stock need the angling trust? Your campaign has no evidence. Why won't you work with your peers, the inshore under tens? As opposed to alienating them? Angling trust failed big time re bait digging, even fish legal attempted to intervene and failed, all for what, nothing.

Looks like the sea angling reps have been coerced by the ifca's to compose sea angling strategy's that the ifca's at some stage will look at drafting into legislation to manage the rsa, because they like wasting tax payers money. That's without asking the rsa btw. You know who you are..
