    Had a brilliant day on the Valkyrie, at least 4 of us had PB Spurdogs and Conger Eels.
    Glen is a great skipper, always there when you need his help or advice and is a really nice guy as well. Highly recommend this boat if you want a great day out.

    September 14th to 17th, out with Zac Cairns, on Valkyrie 6, what a wonderful skipper and boat, our crew of 8 suffered a horrendous 7 hour slog to get to Alderney, but on arrival Zac put us straight on the fish, and it didn't stop all weekend.
    There were many pb's recorded during the four days, including Tope to 47lbs, Blonde ray to 24lbs, Conger to 44lbs, Red Gurnard to 2lbs, Black Bream to 3lbs, an Atlantic Chub Mackerel of about a pound and a half, and the highlight of the trip was a fine Couch's Bream of 3lbs 14oz for myself.

    I am sure this will be rejected however I will try. I have no experience of these gents as charter skippers but as another user of Chichester harbour I find them to be most inconsiderate. They return on a Sunday evening steaming at excessive speed kicking up one hell of a wash. They should keep to the 6 kn limit.

    Skippers Reponse: K wind , I see you start your review with I’m sure this will be rejected, well we except all reviews good or bad that’s how we learn,thank you for your review, we take the speed limit in the harbour very seriously and we are aware of the wash our vessels can creat at low speeds , this is due to the displacement , the speed limit is 8 knts not 6 , you are very welcome to contact us and we will gladly answer any concerns you may have . Kind regards Glen

    Another great day out on the boat with glen, this time for a trip at anchor over a wreck....mackerel conspicuous in their absence, but a great day had nonetheless, lots of ling, conger, and bream, as well as pout, bullhuss and a great sun tan :P good banter on board as always, and glen seriously knows his stuff, couldnt reccommend him highly enough :)
