We headed out on a premier trip the other day with 7 people on board. The weather wasn’t perfect but we were able to find a bit of shelter first thing and even as the tide turned and the sea got up we were comfortable all day. The fishing started well and continued to produce…
We were lucky enough to get most of our trips out this week despite the seemingly relentless winds. The only trip cancelled was with rain forecast all day as well as a good breeze. I still offered to go but unsurprisingly only a couple of lads fancied it. The days when we have been out…
Russell and the lads hired the boat today between the 5 of them. They fished one rod each and had steady fishing throughout the day. There was a bit of breeze first thing but where we started was near flat calm. The breeze was forecast to decrease but it dint ease off until the end…
Had 7 lads on board today all on the hire gear and we snuck a day out in between the gales. It was bright and breezy but the wind was in the right direction for us to find some shelter in the river. We needed all of the shelter we could get for the first…
We’ve been lucky enough to get a couple of trtips in here and there despite the succession of storms rolling through. The weather has put a stop to the last couple of offshore trips but fishing inshore has made up for it. With such poor weather we havnt left the blackwater for a couple of…
Leon and the lads were booked on today, they were a little short on people so Stephen and Laura made up the numbers. We started off in the river as there was a bit of breeze first thing. We found a few roker of all sizes, lots of pin whiting and a dab by slack…
This week we have spent most of our time in the shelter of the estuary catching rays. We are so lucky the river has provided us with good numbers of roker to get the year started. Both days were steady with Sunday producing 22 roker with a boat full of hire rods. The sprats are…
We’ve still been getting some nice roker and good numbers for the time of year. Inshore roker have been the main fish showing as any round fish big enough are still feeding on the sprats which are abundant at the moment. When we fished further out last week leon found a little surprise amongst the…
this weeks report will be brief as my computer isn’t playing ball. sorry. we’ve been lucky enough to get out here and there with mixed results but the general picture is we are finding several roker most trips with some nice fish mixed in. andy has had the biggest to the boat so far at…

Had the maldon sea anglers out the other day for their first trip of the year. We had debated wether to cancel or move the trip as there was plenty of wind forecast. The lads were still keen and as a few fish are about inshore we decided to head out. We started a bit…
Had our first trip of the new year today with several regulars and a couple of new faces. We cancelled yesterday and shuffled a few people around as today looked a better day. The weather was slightly better but not good enough to get offshore so we stayed inshore. We scratched around on a few…

I thought I would do a round up of 2019 on board the ‘Galloper’ here in Essex. Fishing throughout the year was kind to us. The relatively mild winter may not help the cod stocks but it meant we were catching skate throughout the winter. On one of our trips early in the year we…
Got a couple of trips in this week, one day I headed out with just Barry and Mark aboard. If the weather is good enough and the fish are feeding I will honour individual bookings even if just one person is booked. I treat it as a day out for my self to fish and…
