    There have been plenty of dabs about lately. These little flat fish are a welcome sight on a winters day. We decided to have the afternoon targeting them the other day and sure enough there were plenty caught and some over a foot long too. At times there were double and triple shots which made a nice change to the triple shots of whiting we had been getting before hand. Stephen was probably top rod with 27 dabs for his efforts.
    I have spaces aboard Galloper from brightlingsea Essex over the next week and Christmas period so please get in touch if you want to join us.

    The Braintree sea anglers had a nice general trip the other day. There were plenty of bites throughout the day. Mostly whiting and dogfish but a few pouting and dabs showed too. There were a few rays caught throughout the day although no monsters but always welcome. It was a pleasant day out in the winter sun despite a chilly start. I have a few days with individual spaces and boat availability before new year. So please get in touch to join us aboard Galloper.

    We managed to get offshore again for bass the other day. This time it was bait fishing at anchor. The drop in water temperature had taken its toll and the fishing was harder than earlier in the autumn. Having said that there were still plenty of bites. Mark and myself had fish throughout the day although the stamp was smaller than earlier in the year there were a few nice keepers amongst them.
    I have spaces this week offshore bass fishing weather permitting. We aim to be on lures mainly and normally the stamp is better.

    We took advantage of a brief weather window the other day and enjoyed a fantastic day on the bass. Traditionally we would have written off bass fishing by the end of November but who could ignore fishing like this? Lures were the order of the day and with some fish pushing double figures this really was fantastic sport. Steve canham couldn't put a foot wrong and bought a steady stream of fish aboard all day. He was so busy that when I asked for a picture and went to grab my phone he had another by the time a returned! Steve was top rod on the day with 40-50 bass easily. Closely followed by Barry (who kept count with 36), Steve hill and the rest of the lads. Even I managed to nick a few out between netting, unhooking and steering. With bass still showing inshore we will be heading offshore in search of them in to December this year weather permitting. Please get in touch if you want to join us. I also have spaces this week on general trips

    Keirans group may not have had the weather to get offshore for bass but thankfully there were plenty of fish to keep them busy inshore. The whiting and dogfish were there in droves but there were a few dabs, rays and I think even a small bass made an appearance. The inshore fishing should remain busy like this until after Christmas. Hopefully with the addition of a few more codling too. I have spaces this Wednesday and full boat availability over the next few weeks so please get in touch if you want to join us.

    Joe and the lads made the most of a weather window the other day and were rewarded with a great day offshore on the bass. It was very busy at times as expected with several of the lads on a fish a cast. The stamp wasn't huge but there were plenty for the table and great sport with the rest.
    The weather is looking good for Sunday and I have spaces offshore bass fishing.

    The inshore fishing is still steady with loads of fish on our sheltered marks meaning little reason to cancel. Of course there are still hoards of whiting and dogfish with a few dabs and pouting in between. There are a few rays, codling and surprisingly still bass to showing to put a bend in the rods. There must be plenty about as even the skipper can catch them (must work on my selfie skills)

    The lads from the Braintree sea anglers had a busy trip the other day. We were on an inshore trip so of course there were lots of dogfish and whiting to be caught. The day started well with 4 rays in the first hour along with double shots of dogfish, whiting and some dabs. We moved around throughout the day and found one or two more rays on each mark as well as a dear little codling for Chris to end the day.
    I have spaces aboard Galloper this weekend and into next week.

    It has been great to see one or two small codling mixed in with our inshore trips lately. Only small so far but nice to see and positive signs for the coming weeks. Ian was pleased to get the first one of the autumn. autumn is definitely running a little late this year so hopefully they will grow in size and numbers as time goes on. There are of course stacks of whiting and dogfish around. However in between them we are catching a few rays, dabs, pouting and the occasional bass or hound still. Offshore there are plenty of bass around and we will continue to target them into December this year as you can still keep in them.
    I have spaces this week and next as well as the coming weeks.

    The big bass continue to come aboard the Galloper. This brace of belting fish came aboard one after the other for fellow skipper Steve hill and Brian mead. There was a steady stream of fish coming aboard on lures in some challenging conditions. Steve's experience shone through as the day progressed with over 20 bass on two relatively short and intense sessions on the lures. It was almost fish a cast for him at times. Cheers for showing the lads how it's done Steve! Remember as we are allowed to retain bass after the end of November this year I will continue bass trips into December too. My next spaces offshore are on next Wednesday 08/11 @ £115pp lure fishing.
    Then on a general trips on
    11/11 @ £60pp
