    Report on-board Galloper

    September has come and gone very quickly for me. This may have been aided by a short break away but mostly as I was busy as ever. We started off with roker making up the majority of our catches. These varied from little maids (as is common this time of year) up to double figures. As well as these we had several smooth-hounds and the odd bass mixed in. we also saw several codling showing which is no surprise given the smattering of them we have seen throughout the summer. As the month went on the numbers smooth-hounds and bass decreased quickly which signals the end of summer for us. Luckily the weather is still very much like summer at the moment and despite this the numbers of cod have been picking up nicely. the stamp of fish is great at the moment with many fish in the 3-7lbs range and this is likely to increase as the season goes on. Fish are still pretty spread out but if you are lucky enough to get on them 10-20 a day is common. This makes for some good fishing along with the roker and hordes of whiting and dogfish that are about. Its likely that as these monster tides back off we will see some better numbers of cod and these will build over the coming month and as we get further into the season. As you will gather from most of the reports we expect to see some decent fish this year so watch this space.
