Report on-board Shy-Torque III
With the weather being a little kinder to us, we managed to get to sea over the last three days on the Shy-Torque III.
On Friday we decided to give the offshore option a go first and ran out to the 9 mile area where we dropped on a couple of bits of scrap and several ground marks.
After a couple of hours of trying everything we knew, we decided to run back inshore and drop the anchor as only one “bootlace” Ling was boated!
With the tide only running slow on a 4.3m the Uptiding/Downtiding was never going to be at its best, but we had to give it a go and
3 hours later we only managed another 15 or so Codling plus the usual other bits and bobs.
A slow day to be fair but enjoyable nevertheless.
On Saturday we decided to concentrate more on the Uptiding marks after the previous day and at the end of the day we had only managed to boat 20 or so fish.
Still, better to see the the rods twitching with something!
On Sunday we had a team of mixed East Europeans with us and they asked to have a run offshore (even though I’d explained it wasn’t fishing) so we headed out in a different direction and tried a couple of wrecks out to the East of the harbour.
A slightly better day (but still not good) with around 30 fish boated.
Every single fish over the last three trips have been landed on baited rigs, indicating that even further offshore, the water is still very murky after the constant storms we’ve seen over the early winter period.
This coming week we see the tides building back up to the sizes we like for the inshore work, so here’s hoping things pick up a little for us on the Uptiding/Downtiding marks.
Cheers for now,
Rich

Report on-board Galloper
if you are a sea angler beach or boat either fanatical or occasional and you have fished around the greater Thames Estuary then it is likely you have fished for thornback rays. if you have fished here the last few years you will undoubtedly noticed the steep decline in their numbers. THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
please take the time to fill out this survey, attend an online meeting, or voice your opinion in some official way to try and get sea angling the recognition it deserves. we seem to be under represented when ever it matters so please stand up and be counted. it wont take long, you invest money into angling weather it is by spending it on charter boats, tackle, bait, traveling or taking time off. protect your investment by taking part now.
i'm not sure what the rules are about sharing the links on here but i have put them on my own social media and website

Just back from a very pleasant 4hr trip with Aaron and the lads hiring the boat between the 3 of them. The weather was bright and breezy for most of the trip but thankfully there were plenty of fish within the sheltered waters of the blackwater and Colne estuaries. We had a thornback ray first cast as well as braces of whiting and dabs to get us off the mark. The fish weren't huge but very welcome as was a trip on the boat to blow the Christmas cobwebs away. We had a couple more rays before we had to head in and managed to beat the worse of the weather. It was great to see the lads enjoy their trip and get a few fish despite the strong wind.
It looks like there could be a little less wind at the weekend so I will try to get a trip or two together. Please contact me if you want to join us.

Although the influx of sprats has slowed down some of the fishing currently there are still fish to be caught. The other day there were still plenty of whiting to be caught although the stamp was smaller than a few weeks ago. Gorden was pretty good at catching dabs as well as a small ray and several of the whiting were a better size and ideal for the table.
I am trying to arrange a couple of days over the Xmas period so if you want to get out then please get in touch. After that my next spaces are at the end of January.
Otherwise have a great Christmas and I will try to put some more interesting content on here for you to read over the next few weeks.

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
A nice day on the water on Tuesday with our three anglers, Steve Hardwick, Karol and Pete.
A short run to the North of the harbour, with only a couple of moves through the day.
In total, the three lads taking around a dozen fish between them (not the best days fishing they’ve had by any stretch) but after Fergus and myself gave the 15 or so that we had to them, each of the lads took a nice bag of fillets home.
The majority of the fish around the 2-3lb mark but a couple of slightly better ones just over 5lb and Fergus managing one at 7lb 2oz as well.
We’d like to wish one and all a very merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
See you all in 2024.
Cheers
Rich & Fergus.
