During private charters, some passengers choose to fish independently for turbot, a species found in various offshore areas along the Sussex coastline. These fish inhabit a range of seabed types and can be encountered at different distances from shore depending on conditions and time of year.
Passengers who intend to fish for turbot often bring a selection of baits or lures suited to their preferred methods, and many choose to research seasonal patterns or techniques in advance. As with all fishing, approaches vary widely between individuals, and there is no single recommended method or setup.
Fishing during the charter is entirely optional and is undertaken independently by passengers. Our role is the safe navigation and operation of the vessel while transporting passengers to offshore locations.
Some passengers choose to retain fish they catch, and the vessel carries ice storage to help keep any retained fish in good condition during the charter
