Plenty more bass and Stanley was still catching them too. He was pleased with his lure choice on this one. He nicked a bass from this mark when they weren't playing ball for the others. The lads did well to keep up their enthusiasm through the rain and the fish came on the feed in the end.

Rain doesn't stop playing aboard Galloper! Sorry I've been quiet lately but life is hectic and I have had a run off offshore trips which means long days and no signal. however they have been rewarding as you can see. Some days we have had to work harder than others to find them but the lads have achieved their quota of 2 bass each and returned many more. We've seen other species too like mackerel, Launce, scad, weavers and hounds to name a few. I have spaces for offshore bass fishing next week and right through until December as well as general fishing, short trips and even tuna fishing when we relocate to Falmouth for a few weeks.

We had a lovely 4 hour trip when Liam and his family and friends joined us the other day. We had some cracking hounds, nice bass and even some baby tope. It's always great to see the the kids getting stuck in. I love seeing everyone enjoyed the experience regardless of age or gender. The weather was spot on too so who could ask for more.
We have spaces for short trips, general trips, offshore trips and even tuna trips for groups and individuals over the coming months so please get in touch.

With calm seas, roasting hot weather and some cracking bass fishing could we want for anything else? Well perhaps some of the lads could have used some more clothes by the looks of it but other than that we had another great day aboard Galloper. Richards group haven't always been blessed with good weather on their annual trip so who can blame them for making the most of it.
As well as the bass we had several hounds and even some thornback rays.
Fingers crossed there's plenty more where they came from over the coming weeks.
We have spaces for groups and individuals for offshore trips, general trips and shorts trips.

Report on-board Braveheart II
The weather this last few weeks has been awesome, settled and good fishing, we've caught smoothound, bass, thornback ray, tope, eel's, lsd's, mackerel, Scad, and even our 1st conger eel which norw seems to be appearing more frequently around the essex and north Essex coast, and recently we added yer another species aboard BRAVEHEARTII.... the Bluetooth Rockfish! A beautiful little brightly coloured fish that wouldn't look out of place in the red sea or Caribbean!
We had no less than 5 that morning and I was more excited about them than the nice tope i caught on the 1st cast in the morning.
That's the beauty of sea fishing, as you never know what the next trip will produce.
Many thanks And tight lines

Unexpectedly available tomorrow for full day or shorter trips. The concert we were going to has been cancelled. We have plenty of sheltered marks and a big catamaran so there's no risk of me cancelling. Please call 07956411528
We've had a lovely mixed bag of smooth-hounds and bass today with one or two baby tope and rays thrown in View Boats Page
