    Report on-board Vanishing Point-2

    At this time Of year when many charter boat on the South coast are sadly blown off because of the weather, although we don't have the same amount of species they do on the Essex coast we do have very sheltered waters that hold Whiting, Codling, Pouting, Thornback Rays, and lot's of inshore
    e Dab's, and virtually never have to cancel to weather... so if you are serious about getting out and don't want to be cancelled call Vanishing Point-2 one of the largest Catamarans in the UK fleet in the River Blackwater in Essex for a trip un-spoilt by the weather.

    Even on these bitter cold days with wind chill factor of -3 outside the temperature inside her massive wheelhouse is kept to 67 degrees all day long so no need to freeze yer whats-it's off...

    So if your interested in having an un-spoiled non-disappointed trip on one the UK's premier charter boat:
    Call: Terry 07768306646
    ( and as far as I am aware we are the only sports charter boat licenced to do Clay pigeon shooting)

    So that number again..... 07768306646 GREAT CORPORATE TEAM BUILDING DAY OUT

  • 11/2017 Fishing Report by Scott Belbin on Galloper (Brightlingsea, Essex)

    Nov 2017 by Scott Belbin

    Report on-board Galloper

    As ever its been a while since my last report on here. This autumn has been promising as expected. Its been an improvement on last year (which isn’t too hard). As im sure you will have gathered from other reports from this area. The last few weeks have seen us catching codling on all but one trip. They are mostly small and we’ve seen between 1 and 3 per trip which is alwost as many in a trip as the whole of last season! There are currently heaps of whiting keeping us busy in the between and although as ever the majority are small there is the odd bigger one around too. The colder weather has thinned out the bulk of the thorn-back rays and dogfish. However we are still scratching a few together to mix in with the rest of the days catch. The last set of tides saw the return of the dabs, the lads had a few hours fishing for them with 10-15 per angler coming out. These add to the relatively varied catches we are seeing at the moment and make a great standby for a windy winters day.
    We are available right through the winter and have spaces throughout December and January. We are lucky enough to have plenty of sheltered places to fish so if your keen to get out there’s no need to cancel.
    Ive added a few pictures to my page on here of some of the codling we have seen so far. They aren’t monsters but it should give you an idea of what’s coming out.

  • 18/11/2017 Fishing Report by jon old on High Flyer 2 (Great Yarmouth, Norfolk)

    18 Nov 2017 by jon old

    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    Weekend of 18th/19th November 2017 bringing us up to date. Been so windy lately all our fishing has been inshore but with surprising results. Picture today is of Des Gunton (Norfolk) with our best cod to date this season of 7.5lbs , the cod havent really turned up yet just odd fish about but the water temperature is slowly dropping currently at 9 degrees so hoping for some cold weather soon. The whitting have been grabbing the baits soon as they hit the water pleased to have them about really but at times they are a pain! The odd skate still about inshore have noticed a serious decline in the spotty dogs which is very handy proves water temp is falling . One lucky angler Paul got a nice surprise of a 3lb lobster mouth hooked as well doesnt often happen good for him.
    Soon as wind decreases we will get out to some deeper water to have a look about but not this week either with cancelled trip again tomorrow so bit testing. Looking like coming weekend inshore again but with few nice surprises that we been having least were getting fish keeping people happy. Big thanks to all for weekend despite the wind and cold appreciate you all coming out, until next time tight lines everyone.

    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    Well its been a waiting game this past month everyones wanting a cod the reality of the situation is we have only had the odd one a trip probably in my opinion due to the unusually high water temperature at the moment but it is coming down last recorded sun 12th Nov at 10.5 degrees. The whitting have kept us extremely busy which we should be grateful for some nice keepers among them but honestly who wants pictures of strings of whitting? Been lucky with a few skate still hanging about also the spotty dogs which are now thinning out thank god and also the odd decent pouting making a show. Nice to see a bit of conservation as all skate and codling been returned. Picture today is of Brian cant mention his last name which is Hopper press ganged into having his picture taken as all we had was whitting to show so thanks mate! Lost quite a few trips due to the windy conditions last few weekends still got few places in December at weekends website up to date or midweek we will make a trip up if we can just ring or text will get things in place. Until then pray for cold weather and tight lines everyone. Cheers Jon (High Flyer 2)

We had fish right from the start to finish basically whitting and doggies a cast on a quite strong tide. Picture of few keeper whitting.Fish returned were 4 small codling, 3 small female skate, shame wernt bigger but early days for cod. Water temp at 14 degrees at moment not cod water but should start to get colder soon nearly november.! Big thanks to Dean for organising everybody much appreciated looking forward to next trip.
    Few dates left for weekends up till xmas at the moment dont get caught out, have new diary and tide timetables for 2018 now so tope or wrecking trips get sorted before they go. Will be starting few night trips soon as few more cod appear 6pm till midnight same cost keep eye on website, until then tight lines people. Cheers Jon (High Flyer 2)
