Report on-board Galloper
It looks like we could have a weather window after Christmas so I'm arranging a couple of trips. Hopefully we can get offshore for the chance of some mixed fishing one day and find some fish closer to home on another more relaxing day. I have availability for full boat bookings if anyone wants exclusive hire for fishing trips or even just if you want a boat ride with the family for a few hours.
The weather has stopped our last few trips but before that there were loads of fish showing from the last of the bass and hounds through to whiting, dogfish, rays and even conger.
Have a lovely Christmas and hopefully I'll see some of you on the other side.

Obviously the weather has curtailed some of our plans lately but we have managed to get out here and there. Steve canham had our biggest conger so far from brightlingsea the other day and it was nice to break into double figures as well as catching it intentionally too (something I never expected to say).
We had half a day for bass with Jons group the other day and although the size and numbers are down it was great to have fresh bass for dinner in December and there were plenty of bites. We missed lots but I had 7 bass in 3 hours fishing. John managed one or two small hounds and we had dogfish and whiting before heading inshore to have a relaxing end to the day. There's loads of life there and we added dabs and pouting to the species count.
It looks like the weather will be on its toes later this week and I have spaces for groups and individuals both days this weekend. Please contact me on 07956411528 if you want to get out.

Report on-board Neverland
�� Who Let the Dogs Out? ��
We wrapped up our last trips before the Christmas break, and what a contrast it’s been! While Whiting were predominantly caught closer inshore, Neverland found Spur Dogs, Smoothhound, and Bass further offshore.
On Tuesday, 4th December, with perfect conditions, we headed out and hit the better fish almost immediately—giving our party a glimpse of what January and February fishing will bring.
�� Bookings for 2025 are now open with availability for full boat and individual days on CBUK.

There's still loads of life inshore at the moment. Stacks of whiting queuing up for our baits as well as dogfish, pouting, some nice dabs and even a couple of small bass. If you want a comfy day out catching plenty of fish then it's hard to beat the blackwater estuary at the moment.
If the weather permits then we can head offshore and target other stuff. It can be hit and miss but if you want something different and the chance of a better fish then I love trying for something different.
I have spaces this weekend both inshore and offshore weather permitting.

It's that time of year when the we start targeting the dabs again. Numbers have been great so far. The lads had some nice ones last week as well as good numbers. They might not make the reels scream but they can keep those rods rattling along with the whiting and dogfish. Barrie had the biggest one his trip but numbers were better for Stephen Clark and the lads. He soon turned treble shots of whiting into treble shots of dabs (though it took nearly 2 hours before he managed a treble of dabs). Numbers were steady throughout the tide and god knows how many the lads had by the end of the day. Clarky fished hard and the most as a result.
This may not be the most extreme fishing but it's a pleasant way to spend the day catching loads of fish and even taking a few for the table too. I know several of you enjoy a day on the dabs and we will be offering these trips for the next couple of months. Please let me know if you want to join us.

Managed to sneak out with Jons group the other day. It was back on the bait fishing for bass and although conditions were far from perfect we managed some nice fish. Jon was top rod with 10-15 bass (I didn't keep count) and the biggest one going over 4lb. We had whiting, hounds and dogfish too. Hopefully we can manage a few more days on the bass before the weather turns too much they go.
I have spaces this weekend and midweek next week if you are interested.
