We've been making the most of the weather this week with quality bass hitting the deck every day. It has been dreamy out here all week with perfect weather and cracking fishing to be had. We've had a lovely variety of fish and fishing methods over a huge area. The bass have featured heavily though and we've caught them on lures, live baits and dead baits. On the drift and at anchor. It's really shaping up to be a bumper bass year. We will be offering offshore bass trips from now until December with spaces for groups and individuals.
I also have spaces for general fishing too of course.

We had a lovely trip of mixed fishing the other day. The smooth-hounds kept us busy throughout the day with a few to low doubles. There were some whiting and dogfish too, one or two small tope and a run of sizeable bass to end the day. We finished the day with 50+ hounds and kept 4 of the bass for the table. Sorry for the lack of pictures but I was a busy boy so thankfully Blake sent me these.
I have spaces this Wednesday for tope and bass then my next availability is the following week.

We had a great day chasing bass with lures last week. It certainly didn't disappoint with stacks of fish there taking most things we could chuck at them. They were a nice stamp with lots of keepers and great fun on light tackle. For some time it was a bit hectic with basically a fish every cast. As they tailed off we had some on bait too before changing tack and spending a few hours bait fishing at anchor elsewhere as we were bassed out!
We will be offering more and more bass trips over the coming months and right through into December.
I have spaces for full boat bookings and individuals so please contact me to join us.
There's plenty of space on other types of trip too.

It's been a blustery week aboard Galloper with sunshine and showers but thankfully there's been loads of fish to put smiles on faces.
Hounds have made up the majority of our catches and they have been great sport fish mainly 7-10lb with a few doubles thrown in.
Most trips producing 50-60 or more and causing carnage as a pack comes through.
Aside from the hounds we're catching loads of other stuff, dogfish, whiting, bass, dabs, small tope and more to keep the rods nodding.
Alice enjoyed catching her first smooth-hounds and must have had 20 odd throughout her trip though I'm sure Barney's tuition helped.
There's plenty of fish around at the moment and should be for some time yet. If you want to join us please contact me
