Chippy has a point. Which island are you coming to? I know most of the guernsey boats are heavily booked in those months but you may get on with Jim O'Donnell on "she likes it rough". See http://www.ex-fishing.com for info. I would recommend booking rather than hoping.
Are you looking to shore fish as well? There is a shore guide service available in guernsey, see http://www.fishing-guernsey.co.uk/guide.html.

Two Charter Options Then Really, in No Particular Order:-
Tony Hart on Anna II - 07797 725301
or
Dave Nuth on Thesus II - 07797 728316
Both Are Usually Booked Solid, So The Chances Of Just Turning Up and Getting A Space Are Slim But Worth Giving Them Both A Buzz As They May Have Spaces At Short Notice.

One tip- be very clear what you are after when you book the boat. Most charter skippers are pretty reluctant to take people to bass marks, as they have been burnt by people then going back and clearing them out.
