A steady day on the fish yesterday on the Shy-Torque III.
The ground on the 9 mile giving us the best picking of codling and ling. No monsters landed but a really enjoyable day.
Fish falling to the baited rigs and the shads.
My son Charlie started work with us at the start of the 6 week holidays and is loving the job! He is also enjoying catching a few too!! Charl is pictured inset.
Room for a few next Wednesday and next Friday.
Cheers

The last few trips for the guys on the Shy-Torque have been anything but easy. Mainly due to the Spring tides. At times the best of the fishing probably coming from the shallow water in 10 fathom on the neap tides.
One or two better fish starting to show now though. Yesterdays trip was steady again with the majority of fish this time coming from a wreck on the 9 mile. The heaviest fish of the day falling to Mike Edge. A nice ling of 12 lb 3 oz.
A lot of throw back (undersized) codling on every trip too at the moment, which bodes well for the fishing for next year when they will all be a takeable size.
Some rubbish weather hitting us at present for a couple of days, so time for a few jobs ashore and on the boat.
Room next week on a couple of days.
Cheers and tight lines as ever

Dave Skip and his mate Dave from Durham joined us on Sunday along with another group form West Yorkshire.
The lads picked away steadily along the ground marks on the 9 mile stretch. Most of the fish were falling to the fresh mackerel bait and squid on the Hokkai rigs.
Top rod was Dave Skip who is pictured inset.
Some room on the boat next week from Tuesday 6th August.

Nice day at sea yesterday with a small group of 6.
Some nice cod and ling again for the lads, the best fish falling to young local angler Fergus Powell. A lovely ling of 12 lbs caught on his 20 lb class Daiwa Interline. Great sport!!
Fergus ending up the top rod for the day too with 15 fish. A great day with great banter.
Cheers for now

Been a long while since we reported lads, sorry.
With the summer festival and a very nice spell of settled weather this is the first chance I've had really.
The competition went really well with only 4 days being lost due to the weather. The fishing was quite hard at times but we did have some good results. The anglers on the Shy - Torque III taking more daily prizes than any other entrant again which was good. Well done to all those! A big thank you to everyone who joined the boat to have a go. Hopefully see you again soon.
We didn't secure any of the top prizes in the event but I reckon we had a couple of potentials on and lost them. Nigel Hall who won the spring competition with us had a really strong fish on on the 3rd day but didn't see it!
I'd like to thank all our sponsors for this years competition and hope they will be on board with us next year too. Always a huge help to us.
Also, I' like to congratulate my mate John Wilford on landing the best fish of the competition on his boat. Well done mate. Here's to a few more for you hopefully!!
The September competition is the next one here at Whitby which starts on the 7th Sept and runs for a fortnight to the 22nd Sept. Come and have a go in that one if you fancy it. Still some spaces left.
First prize is a very nice £1000.00 in cash!!
One of our many daily prize winning fish pictured inset.
Cheers for now and tight lines as ever and enjoy this cracking weather!!

My old mate Nigel Hall fished with us for the 1st three days of the Whitby summer angling festival and decided he'd collect his £1000.00 winnings from the Spring competition whilst he was here. Better late than never !!
He won the competition back in April on the Shy-Torque III with a lovely pollack of 12 lb 6 oz.
Nigel is pictured with Malcolm Pitman of Hook Line & Sinker tackle shop, sponsors of our festivals here at Whitby, and myself.
No monsters so far on the Shy-Torque III in this competition although Nige did lose a good fish yesterday which could maybe have won something.
I'll post any pictures we have at the end of the competition with a full report too.
Cheers for now

Steve, Jig and Dylan chartered the boat for 2 days on Tuesday and Wednesday and had a lovely couple of days both with the weather and with the fishing.
A proper mix of species for the lads including Lemon Sole, Herring and Haddock. The usual Cod and Ling were plentiful too.
Jig had a nice double hook up of cod on the baited rig and Steve took several Haddock on the bait too. Young Fergus Powell fished with us too and took Haddock on the small Sidewinders himself.
The lads will be back again next year for their annual two day trip.
Jig is pictured inset.
Summer competition starts this Saturday. £5000.00 1st prize!! Come and have a go. Great fun for one and all !!

Edmund and his friends joined us the other day and had a nice show of fish for their efforts.
Edmund himself had our first treble of cod of the year on the baited Hokkai trace. Some nice ling boated too. Squid was the best bait of the day.
Cheers for now
