Report on-board Galloper
The bass fishing continues to be good even in some pretty rough conditions. It was great to see Phil join the other lunatics despite some gnarly conditions. He had some quality bass too, let's hope the weather is better next time he's out. The bass will be around for a while yet and the good news is I will be running bass trips into December as we are allowed to keep them until the end of January. I have spaces offshore on Friday (03/11) this week weather permitting then inshore on 11/11 please call 07956411528

Fishing Report by Rich Ward
on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
We ran our second Uptiding trip of the year yesterday.
Our mixed team of 7 lads enjoyed some steady (at times) fishing.
No great shakes numbers wise with around 30 fish again. No big fish to count either. The best being one I caught at a shade under 5lbs.
I fancied that the day would have produced a little better than the last trip as the tides are running nice and strong in the high 5.0 meter range. Yesterday’s being a 5.7m.
We are wondering whether storm “Babet” might still be playing a part and even the inshore marks need a bit longer to settle.
Anyway, still another very enjoyable day out on the water.
The usual squid and black lugworm working, but the cart helping a lot yesterday too.
Cheers for now,
Rich

Report on-board Galloper
I often say that the fish, the boats and the weather come and go but it's the people who make or break a day on a charter boat. To be fair there was no shortage of fish the other day but whatever we were catching it was obvious that the lads would have a great day. Rick was pleased to be catching of whiting and dogfish first thing but he was over the moon when his first thornback ray came aboard. He had promised his dad that he would catch one for him and was only too pleased to have a picture and let her Go. How do we quantify that compared to the commercial value of that fish? There were a few bass showing too so can you imagine how made up he was when he had a cracking bass too! Making people's day and bringing them together is what it's all about. The bass are hanging around inshore very late this year and are in great numbers offshore which is nice to see.
Next spaces are tomorrow with more in the next few weeks

There is certainly no shortage of life inshore on our general trips at the moment. Of course there are hoards of whiting and dogfish to work through. These are on our baits very quickly but if baits are changed very regularly then we can work through these fish. There is a real variety of species available some of which we might not expect. These conger were certainly a surprise to see. Not least because we had 2 on our day trip and 2 more in the evening! Now I appreciate that they might not break any records but they put a smile on my face. Considering i had never seen one off of the Essex coast until this year I certainly didn't expect to see 4 in one day inshore! Hopefully they get a chance to survive and flourish. Unfortunately I noticed that one of the commercial boats who caught one in his pots earlier this year thought the best thing to do was kill it. Despite them being rare and low value. This perfectly demonstrates their mentality. Unfortunately what they catch is only worth anything to them when it's dead.

27/10-6 spaces @ £60pp

Report on-board Hussler of Ramsgate
Good day on the Bass today for Terry's group from Kent aboard HUSSLER of Ramsgate, with fish to over 8lb on lures and and pirks.
As the bite slowed we dropped the hook and got straight into the Smoothounds, again with fish to over 8lbs. Hardly a chance to make the tea with the action with all anglers taking home their limit of Bass with many more being released. The Bass and Hounds will stay around until late November so give me a call and get amongst the action �� View Boats Page

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
After Monday’s offshore trip to wrecks out on the 20 mile stream and further off out to the “Wall” we chose to work the Uptiding marks yesterday.
Basically (and sadly) storm Babet has smashed our offshore marks to bits leaving the water like soup and the fishing was rubbish out there!!!
A marked improvement however yesterday with around 30 Codling boated (around 18 keepers) and the rest of the undersized safely returned.
I reckon if the tide had been running stronger than 4.6m we would have had much greater numbers.
The gentle Easterly swell not helping us with the fishing either with the boat laying slightly off square and after lunch the four lads decided to go for the 2.30pm bridge after a couple of them started feeling a little queasy.
All in all though a really nice start to our Uptiding season and we’re really looking forward to seeing you all over the next few months.
Things are looking very healthy indeed.
Cheers for now,
Rich
