  Report on-board Galloper

  Thought I would put a report on here to cover the last few weeks. we launched our new boat at the start of November. She’s a blyth catamaran 10 meters long by 5 meters wide. The byth hull is popular throughout the country with both anglers and skippers alike. She is fast stable and spacious, the anglers have given us nothing but positive feed back so far so we are very pleased. We will soon be putting our old boat the evolution up for sale after antifouling her ect so please get in touch if you are interested.
  the fishing has been busy but not necessarily with what we would like to see. The thorn-back rays have been hard to find at times but most days we are able to get a few aboard to put a decent bend in the rod. The numbers of dogfish have thinned a bit with the drop in water temperature but we are still seeing a few mixed in. the whiting appear to be in vast numbers. most are 10-12 inches but we have had a few better ones mixed in. with the numbers that are there its no surprise there are better ones just through the law of averages. At times we have fished paternosters for flatties and the whiting are that thick we are hooking them before the bait hits the bottom. often within a minute or two there’s one on every hook. Its almost like mackerel fishing. we had our first dabs the other week and they make a nice change to the whiting. We even had a small codling the other day it went back in so at least we know there’s one out there!
