    Report on-board Galloper

    With the easterly wind curtailing our efforts to get offshore the other day we stayed inshore and went in search of some dabs.
    After mark started us off with a couple of pouting our first dabs came aboard.
    Tom managed to find a bass which was only just bigger than his hook! However it was nice to see something different.
    The lads had fairly large hooks on to start with but we downsized them as the day progressed and caught more as a result.
    There weren't many whiting about compared to before Christmas as is to be expected this time of year but we had a few small ones once the tide. We even managed a couple of dogfish too which Steve was very pleased with!!
    There were a few nice eating size dabs among them and so we kept a few for the pot. Stanley was desperate to catch a couple of dabs for himself and Douglas for dinner. He had a few throughout the day and we kept a couple which he ate the next night and is already asking to catch some more.
    I know dabs aren't everybody's cup of tea but we had a pleasant day with a few fish to boot. If you just want to get out fishing soon then please get in touch.
    I have spaces inshore and offshore in the coming weeks.
