Skipper John Fleming does like a bit of shark fishing. Well, when we say like, he’s probably borderline obsessed. So we’re sure he’s a happy man today, with the first porbeagle shark of the season brought to the boat yesterday to kick off the sharking season on the Brazen Hussy. Well done to Conor, who played the fish well to the boat, his first porbeagle. Check out the video here.
John says last week produced “some savage fishing on Wednesday gone with Thomas and crew. Ray providing the entertainment as usual and as always catching the smallest fish this time a baby whiting. Pollock, coalies and mackerel were pretty solid on the ground and we had a couple of porbeagle visitors as well, the lads had 3 rods out and we got a couple of runs but no takes and shortly after we had a nice fish hassling the pollock we were catching.”
John has limited availability for the next few weeks, mostly midweek, so give him a call if you’re off and fancy some great charter fishing.

A regular day is between 9am- 6pm from either Rossaveal, Spiddal or Galway depending on species being sought after. Fishing on the inshore reefs for pollock, cod, ling, wrasse, conger eel and mackerel can be reached in 10 minutes from departure, while our offshore reef marks are within 45 minutes of departure. Our ground fishing for tope, spurdog, ray, bullhuss, turbot, plaice and the giant common skate can all be reached within the hour which ensures the most amount of time is spent fishing.
The shark season usually starts at the end of June and runs into late October, this is the ultimate angling adrenaline rush with these hard fighting blue and porbeagle sharks all being tagged and released safely.
