The African Queen offers excellent fishing on the Skerries Bank, renown for its Spring and Autumn plaice fishing, and Summer Ray fishing. Inshore wreck and reef fishing is available. For the more experienced, the mid channel wrecks can produce some fabulous sport but will because of the distances involved in getting out to them mean a long day.

You can email me, but as we live onboard I am not able to access the internet every day. I keep the Diary as up to date as time will allow, you can see the date I last updated the diary above the Monthly boxes below, the diary can only be a guide as the phone is always ringing and I have no Instant way of updating it.
I intend to antifoul and refit the boat this February as normal and be up and running by March to coincide with the Spring run of Plaice. We have enjoyed some excellent fishing through 2016, both on the Skerries for the Plaice, Turbot and Ray and we have had some of the best wreck fishing for years, lets hope for plenty of the same this year with a bit better weather.
