    Report on-board Galloper

    We've been so lucky with the fishing available to us over the bank holidays despite the forecast. As is often the case the worst of the weather didn't materialize and we have enjoyed some surprisingly pleasant trips. Smooth-hounds have made up a lot of our catches and of various sizes depending on where we were fishing. One trip was very busy and I lost track of how many hounds we saw between 2-8lb. Other trips we've seen more in the 8-12lb size.
    Bass have varied from trip to trip. We've caught them most places, some on bait and some on lures and feathers. In-between the very busy hound trip we had 8 keeper bass and several undersize. There's been a few rays each trip too and various other species such as Whiting, dogfish and dabs.
    The sheltered marks we can fish really are our saving grace and it's great to be able to offer our anglers fishing of this standard and avoid the frustration of cancelling.
