Fishing Report by Scott Belbin
on Galloper (Brightlingsea, Essex)
Jan 2020 by Scott Belbin
Report on-board Galloper
The year has got off to a great start for us here on the blackwater estuary. There may have been lots of sprats around but the thorn-back rays have still been feeding well. The mild weather has undoubtably helped this and they have shown in both size and numbers. The best of the fishing has been well within the shelter of the estuary so we have been able to fish in all but the worst weather. Our best trip in January was 42 rays to 14.8lbs. we saw double figure fish mixed in most trips and plenty of happy anglers. As long as we don’t see any prolonged cold spells the rays should be here for the spring now. Although at times it was mostly rays we caught we did see a few other bits and bobs with the usual whiting dogfish and dabs showing. When conditions allowed we headed further afield and even had a couple of tiny codling, hopefully we will see some of their larger relatives as the sprats move off in the coming weeks. I have several spaces coming up at weekends as well as midweek availability and evening as we get into the summer. For more information, regular reports and availability please visit

Report on-board Galloper
We have managed to get a couple of trips out to start the new year off. The weather hasn’t been perfect but we are lucky that the sheltered waters of the blackwater estuary and surrounding areas mean we can got out in most weather if we want. Happily there are still plenty of fish to be caught giving us good reason to head out. The sprats have arrived in the estuary which has distracted many of the bigger whiting although there are still numbers of smaller whiting taking our baits. The last couple of trips have produced a few nice dabs for us with out even targeting them. Dad had a trip booked with a few of his regulars the other day. There were only 3-4 anglers on board and they still managed 79 dabs on a nice leisurely day in the comfort of the estuary. There have been plenty of whiting mixed in to make for a busy day on the right tides.The mild weather has kept the thorn-back rays and dogfish feeding. The fish are a bit lethargic and finicky but we are still seeing a few in the right places. Last weekend we headed out in a load of wind with the Maldon sea anglers on board. We spent the morning catching dabs,pouting and whiting with a 5 bearded rockling making a surprise appearance. We moved for the afternoon to target some rays. The fishing took a while to get going but the lads had 10 thornbacks and lost a couple more as well as catching some more whiting and dogfish. The biggest ray went to martin and just went over double figures. On the way in the lads commented that they were pleased they had made the effort to go out and I was pleased we could find a few fish on a windy day.
I have a few spaces coming up if you wish to get out soon, if the weather stays this mild the rays should move inshore in numbers in the next few weeks. If we get the weather and tides we will be heading further off in search of spurdog and alike which I think will also happen early this year so please book early so you don’t miss out.
