Report on-board Galloper
October has flown by with lots of trip chasing all sorts of fish. the weather may have been a pain for some but we have been very fortunate to have some great fishing in the blackwater estuary to fall back on when its too rough to get else where. To be honest sometimes the fishing was better in the estuary than it was further off with fish more concentrated. As ever there has been no shortage of whiting and dogfish about and depending where we fished it was usually one or the other (if not both) keeping us busy and robing our baits. In places the numbers of thornbacks has been steady with the average stamp slightly smaller this time of year going from maids to 8lbs or so. The stamp of cod on the other had is great at the moment with many on the 3-7lbs range even in the estuary. The numbers of fish are going up steadily now with the best numbers turning up later in the season last year. There are still a few summer fish here and there and we even found a few smooth-hounds the other day. the biggest fell to one lucky anglers (me) at 13.5lbs . this is by far the latest ive seen a double figure hound and ive no doubt is related to the relatively high water temp. over the coming weeks we should see more codling coming out and if were lucky might find one or two of the better fish as well. Ive got a few spaces before the end of the year and have put all of my dates for next year on my page.
