    Report on-board Galloper

    as ever it has been a while since my last report on here (although I do weekly reports on my website and facebook page). As im sure you can see from other reports in this area the weather has been a pain for a while now. We have managed to get most trips out but not always to where we want to go. There have been so significant numbers of codling so far for us this season. We have seen one or two on occasions so they are present but not numerous. That doesn’t mean there aren’t fish to be caught though and there is certainly no shortage of whiting around along with numbers of dabs on the right tides. There are a few thorn-back rays here and there as well as the last of the dogfish if you are lucky enough to encounter one. As ever the blackwater estuary has saved a lot of days for us, even if we don’t fish the estuary its self we can often get out on a ‘maybe’ forecast safe in the knowledge we have the blackwater as a back up. There are times when fishing in there is better than further off and at the very least it seems to be wall to wall with whiting right now. I have plenty of room in the run up to Christmas and the new year for individuals and groups. so if you just want to get afloat then we should be able to keep the rod tips rattling and sit in relative comfort even on a breezy day. In the meantime thanks to all of our anglers for their support and please keep an eye on my website www.essexseafishing.co.uk
