Report on-board Galloper
The weather has been kind to us over the Christmas break and we have been able to get several trips out. the milder weather over recent weeks means the fish are feeding well and have moved back inshore again so there has been plenty to catch. Trips in the river have seen good numbers of dabs and whiting on the slacker tides with thorn-backs and the odd codling coming out too. A charity competition in the river saw several double figure thorn-backs along with plenty of whiting, dabs and even a codling to win the prize for the biggest cod. Further down we have seen good numbers of most fish. I headed out the day after boxing day with 3 lads aboard to make the most of the weather. we had loads of whiting and dogfish (dogfish are always a sign of higher water temperature) along with 28 thorn-backs, a pouting and a nice plump codling for Andy. Today we even had a stray school bass!
Last year January and February saw our best numbers of codling so lets hope 2019 follows suit.
With 2019 in mind if you wish to book specific trips such as offshore ones for spurdog, tope, bass ect please try and book well in advance as these often require certain tides and weekends are starting to fill up.
I have plenty of space into the start of the year and with plenty of fish around there’s every reason to get afloat so for more information, weekly reports and available dates please visit www.essexseafishing.co.uk
