Report on-board High Flyer 2
Todays trip headed out past the 12 mile mark in search of few tope, tried our luck at feathering for fresh mackerel, unfortunately had a whole 3!Plenty of weavers and sandeels though . Was a good job brought plenty bait. After a light bit of chumming we anchored up not long to wait and first reel screamed off to Paul Layton which turned out to be Pauls first tope. Just over 22lb not a bad fish plenty of scrap as they do. Not long after Paul again got the run with bigger fish which to be fair was a thirty but concerned in the heat for the fish was returned quick so we decided 25lb in the end but you can see from the picture here actual size. Well done to Paul we didnt get another run got quite lumpy and we came inside but had a good day despite the weather. First tope of the season everythings running late out Sat 18th got few places left another Tope Special if your interested get in quick. Thanks to everyone for the day looking forward to next one.
Cheers Jon (High Flyer 2)

Fishing Report by Scott Belbin
on Galloper (Brightlingsea, Essex)

Report on-board Galloper
The last few months have seen us enjoy some of the best weather imaginable from west mersea and thankfully the fishing has been able to match it on most occasions. My last report on here was late spring so I will bring you briefly up to date from then.
By the time the main bulk of thorn-back rays started to move out at the start of june we already had the summer species around in good numbers to take their place. Smooth-hounds have been fairly consistent throughout the summer with good numbers of the smaller fish at times. This year saw the best season in several years for tope with most boats finding a few decent fish. our biggest went over 55lbs and was caught by billy who made the trip down from north Norfolk several times in search of tope and this was his biggest.
We started off the bass season with some cracking fish on board. the biggest so far fell to chris at 12.4lbs which came just an hour or so after a 10.12lbs bass for steve who was out that day. We have seen several mixed in with our general trips too and as ever the estuary is full of schoolies which are great fun on our 3-4hr trips. Unfortunately having to return all all of the bass has disappointed some of our anglers but they are a pleasure to catch anyway which keeps most people pleased.
There have been several stingrays come out the last few weeks, we were lucky enough to find a small one which matched to small angler who caught it. Charlie was a few days shy of 8 years old when he had his first stingray. These fish are as rare as hens teeth so im sure may a well seasoned angler would be envious of him or any others who managed to boat one this year.
Over the coming weeks the summer species should continue to keep us occupied, September approaches we should see the thorn-back rays picking up in numbers again. these will be mostly small fish at first but the stamp; should increase as the autumn progresses. There’s plenty of time for bass and hounds as yet but it wont be long until we start thinking about cod. After seeing a few more this spring hopes will be high that the blackwater estuary and beyond will be productive again throughout the winter.
I have a few spaces left in august and September, I keep my calendar and last minute bookings up to date on here but for more information, weekly reports and availability please visit www.essexseafishing.co.uk or call 07956411528

Report on-board JFK TWO
wed 8th aug
set out this morning on another lovely morning, on what's turning out to be a cracking summer. for both weather and fishing, off to the first wreck,
and normally the mackerel have been no problem, today they were a little slow. with only odd ones coming aboard. a couple of ling and cod did come aboard as well
with most people still mackerel bashing.
we continued on the wrecks, picking up a few fish off each wreck with a couple of double figured lings and cod to around 6lbs and a few mackerel, everywhere but no great numbers.
off to the next wreck. and bang 5-6 rods into fish. a couple lost but 4 landed,
next go same again 3-4 fish with the lad at the back losing a really good fish. with only yards to go. round again, dont lose them this go.
fish on again with les and mick saying ave got a nice fish on here micks rod doubled over and bouncing all over the shop
up pops micks a cracking huge pollack 14.5lbs. we get that in the net but its tangled itself round a couple other lines including les line
had to snip the hooks off. and remarkably les fish is still on. after a little tussle a nice ling 15.5lbs hits the surface
two lovely fish.
ended nice up a good day with around 50 fish or so being landed with 4 or 5 into double figures View Boats Page
