🎣 Charter Boat Trip Success – 30th May 2026 🎣 Charter Boat Trip Success – 30th May 2026 🎣



What a fantastic day out on the water!

On 30th May, our members headed out of Ramsgate aboard the charter boat Better Days, and it certainly lived up to its name. A great boat with a great skipper who knew exactly where the fish were hiding!

The fishing was excellent throughout the trip, with plenty of catches including dogfish, smooth hounds, mackerel, and lots of bass. More importantly, there were plenty of laughs, great company, and a brilliant atmosphere from start to finish.

A huge thank you to the skipper of Better Days for helping make the trip such a success.

If you're looking to join a friendly and active angling club, we'd love to welcome you. Join us today: https://www.kingsdownanglingclub.com/

And if you're considering a charter fishing trip from Ramsgate, we highly recommend Better Days Charter for a fantastic day on the water.

Tight lines and we look forward to seeing you on the next trip! 🎣

🎣 Fishing Comp Today — Survived… Somehow! 🌧️😂

Fair play to the absolute madmen who stood in the pouring rain for hours today pretending they were “having fun” while slowly turning into seaweed themselves. 🌧️🌊

Despite the weather trying its best to send everyone home early, there were still some cracking catches:
🐟 Plenty of dogfish about
🏆 Mark took biggest flat fish with a 38cm thornback ray
🏆 Jon landed the longest fish with a 58cm dogfish

Jon also managed to catch a strap conger eel — which looked like something dragged straight out of a nightmare — and got so excited he launched another cast immediately… only to snap his hooks and bait clean off into the sea. Safe to say the excitement got the better of him. 😂🎣

Massive thanks to some of the new members who came down and gave it a go — if you can survive today’s weather, you’ll fit right in with this club!

What a fantastic AGM tonight! It was great to see so many people there — thank you to everyone who came along and made it such a brilliant evening.

Unfortunately, we didn’t get any photos… we were too busy enjoying the pizza! 🍕

A special thank you to the The Rising Sun Pub — especially Dan and Toni — for once again letting us host our AGM there this year, as well as serving the drinks and providing such high-quality food throughout the evening. Your support is hugely appreciated!

Here’s to another great year ahead!

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE – KINGSDOWN BOAT RAMP ⚠️

Unfortunately, the Kingsdown boat ramp is now considered unsafe after suffering further damage over the last few days.

For a long time, small repairs and maintenance were delayed instead of being properly dealt with. Because of this lack of action and investment from the council, the damage has now become much worse.

In simple terms — what could have been fixed earlier for a smaller cost has now turned into a far bigger and more expensive problem.

This ramp is important to local anglers, boat users, residents, and visitors, and it’s disappointing to see it reach this stage through neglect.

We hope urgent action is now taken before the situation deteriorates even further.

Well… turns out we’re actually quite good at picking up rubbish too 👀😂

Massive THANK YOU to everyone who came down to Kingsdown Beach for our beach clean — what a turnout! Between us, we collected an impressive amount of litter (and a few mystery items that definitely raised some questions… 🧐).

It’s safe to say the beach is now looking a lot less like a bin and a lot more like the beautiful place it should be 🌊✨

Who knew a fishing club could spend less time catching fish and more time catching… plastic bottles? 🎣🗑️

But seriously — we’re not just about fishing. We also care about keeping our beach clean, protecting the environment, and having a good laugh while we do it.

If you missed out (or just want more top-tier rubbish-collecting action), why not join the club? Fishing, beach cleans, and questionable finds guaranteed 😄
