    Report on-board Galloper

    Well after a short quiet period the past couple of weeks, the fishing is starting to get back on form. Today the lads took the option of quality not quantity and so we headed for one of our close range marks for bigger cod. The fishing wasn't fast but we were catching roker from the first cast and the cod soon followed coming steadily throughout the day. We were lucky having some great autumnal weather with a slight frost this morning and glorious sunshine throughout the day. The lads from Crouch Sea Anglers were very pleased with their catch totalling 18 cod averaging around 5-7lbs and the best around 9.8lbs. There were loads of whiting about and one of the lads even accidently had a cod on a whiting. We had 10 roker with the biggest about 6-7lbs, a load of dogfish and a nice bonus bass of about 3lbs. Not a bad day at all and I'm sure the fishing will only improve over the coming weeks and yes we do have some individual spaces as well as a couple of whole days still free. please see our website for weekly reports and any avialable dates.
