July Report

The offshore fishing certainly excelled with good catches of Cod, Pollack and Ling given the opportunity to anchor these marks big congers and some good size Bream came aboard. The banks around Poole produced a good selection of Rays, plenty of sport with Tope and general fishing. Bass still have yet to appear in numbers but now the mackeral and Scad shoals have arrived these should show up, just a reminder anglers are restricted to 3 bass per person. Locally we have had plenty of fun with small bream, plaice, gurnards and mini species these provide a good days fishing and can be a lifeline when conditions are not favourable. Poole Harbour is fishing well and acts as a safe haven for charter boats , using really light gear you will be surprised by the amount and number of different species caught each trip.
Come and enjoy the fishing -

haven't the time to waffle on so il cut to the chase
good numbers and decent size bass coming out a bit further offshore up to 5lb and most fish are in the 2 lb bracket .
The rays are increasing and moving back in now so some good numbers on the ray side if you target them on the right grounds. The hounds seem to have move down river a bit they will move back up soon still god number to be had on the hermits and squid had plenty hounds to 22lb this week. We been getting a few cod to 6 lb the last week not sure if the early arrivals or late stragglers but they have moved on to our grounds between the fleet herd of over 20 had this weekend and we had 6 so its a good sign for the season to come and a nice surprise. mackerel still a bit thin on the ground but few more about now nice mixed bag about around for the taking. see my web for better reports and pictures www.dawntidecharterfishing.co.uk

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

Report on-board Galloper
July has been another good month even if they weather was a little questionable at times. We have had the odd bass trip and tope trip offshore but have spent most of our time in pursuit of the smooth-hounds. these have been around in good numbers so far this year and with some decent fish showing too. this month has seen mainly small ones with a few bigger fish mixed in at times in the 8-10lbs range along with several double figure fish. these fish will be our main target on our general trips over the next month or so. We have seen a few bass on our general trips too and did our first bass trip last week and had a few nice fish for our efforts. the biggest was only around 4lbs but Fred took my advise and bought a spinning rod along which made a lot more enjoyable. Some times bass can be a little underwhelming on an uptide rod in coloured water or dragging a load of weight behind them. The bonus to this fishing is we can get away with really light gear an appreciate the fish so much more. If the weather permits we should be able to do several more of these trips over the next couple of months. There have still been one or two rays showing on most trips. These add a bit of variety to the mix of fish we’re catching and the males are great eating fish. these are likely to build in numbers over the next month or so although they can be a bit smaller at this time of year. We have seen plenty of other bits and bobs too with whiting, pouting and dogfish often showing in with our main catches. We found a few stray codling the other day which were nice to see. we had several sizable fish with the biggest going around 4.8lbs. After a good winter season like last year there are often a few fish hanging around in certain places or if you like turning up early for the coming season. This could be more likely as several are turning up on the general ground fishing. This should be a good sign and with conditions as they have been the codling could well turn up early this season with any luck. With a bit of settled weather the water went clear last week which resulted in a fair spread of mackerel showing. Ive no doubt the wind over the past few days will have broken them up and ruined water clarity but hopefully if we get another settled spell they will get back on the feed over the coming weeks.
