  Report on-board Galloper

  I thought I would give you a break from banging on about the bass fishing and report on how our general trips have been lately.
  The bites continue to come thick and fast, there’s certainly no shortage of fish to be had. As ever the majority of our catches have been made up of whiting and dogfish. something worth mentioning is that there is no way around these. Its not like carp fishing where you can use boilies to avoid the nuisance fish. you just have to kiss a lot of frogs to win a prince! Those that fish hard and find their way through the whiting and dogfish are rewarded with more whiting and dogfish! as well as a few thornback rays, codling and even the occasional bass or smooth-hound.
  The codling havnt been in huge numbers or size but are more than welcome of course. We have seen a few each day on the latest run of general trips. Les’ group saw the most codling with 6 for the day along with same thorn-backs, loads of whiting, loads of dogfish and a few pouting. The pouting seem to be around in fair numbers too. They may be a pest at times but its nice to see something different come aboard every now and then.
  Hopefully we will continue to find the codling over the coming weeks. When the tides are right I hope to target some dabs again soon. These can make for some good fun on a winters day in the estuary and are great eating too.
  I have a few spaces remaining on our last bass trip of the year this Wednesday (30/11) after that our offshore trips will aim for spurdogs, smooth-hounds, rays and who knows what else as these trips can produce all sorts of fish. As ever I will try and hold back reports on these until after the season finishes in the end of April. If you want to get on board one of these trips then please get in touch. I have spaces for full boat bookings and individuals.
  Remember it is often worth giving me a shout if you are cancelled else where and still wish to get out, as we have lots of sheltered fishing available and a big catamaran which makes it even more comfortable.
