Going boat fishing?
Welcome to Boat Fishing Monthly magazine's website. Bringing you more great angling features, top tackle tests and mark info than ever before.
At last we've got a break in the weather! The horrendous winds have kept a lot of small boats inshore this month, but sport has still been quite good with loads of bass to be caught. When the weather has allowed, the offshore fishing has been excellent for big bass and rays.

Most anglers that we've been talking to are now looking towards the start of the winter cod season. It doesn't seem five minutes ago that we were all waiting for the bass to arrive!
Don't wish the late summer sport away too fast, there are still some amazing fish to catch. And, don't forget that September and early October offer the best chance of a monster bass!
The first of four episodes of a new series that I filmed in Norway with Dean Macey, called 'Land of The Midnight Sun is up on onlinefishing.tv, so make sure you check them out - I'm really proud of them.
