The boat is currently out of the water in the boatyard undergoing some much needed end of season work!
Hopefully we will be back afloat within a couple of weeks (weather permitting)
On our last trip off we had a couple of real good days on the rough ground. The fishing remains very good here for the lads and we are still catching plenty real close to shore too which is always a bonus.
I have (as always) the use of my mates boat whilst ours is unavailable, so if any of you fancy getting a day in before the festivities start give me a ring.

The last few trips on the Shy-Torque have proven quite fruitful for the lads.
The ground fishing inshore has been reasonable with some good bags of Cod and Ling for the table.
One of my favourite haunts, the 9 mile ground, producing over 100 fish for the boys last Thursday and Friday.
Nothing outstandingly big, but with Cod to just under 10lbs and Ling to over 13lbs all the lads were very happy with the fishing.
The North Easterly wind is hindering us at present and looks set for the next few days so some time ashore for reports and updates.
Find your pictures here, on my Facebook page (Shy-Torque Wreck Fishing) and on www.shy-torque2000.com
Cheers for now and keep the lines tight lads!!

Yesterdays lads asked if we could try target Pollack and Ling which I thought was an unusual request after the amount of Cod we've been seeing recently. Each one to their own though I guess.
We started the day by gathering a few fresh Mackerel which is always the best bait for the Ling. After boating around 25, we headed out and began work. A couple of the first marks producing steady up until lunch time. 60 or so fish for the boat. A mixture of Pollack, Ling and cod.
The afternoon tide didn't improve things much more for us with just another dozen or so fish being landed.
Not quite the fishing that we've been seeing of late but the lads all thoroughly enjoyed their day with us.
Remember, tides are now available for 2016 lads. You can make your bookings as of now.
Tight lines

A bit of a strange one to weigh up weather wise for today's trip. Variable winds to start the day going NW later. A betwixed and between one. However, once put to the vote, the lads decided to come and have a go.
A bit of swell to welcome us first thing but with the wind at absolute zero there wasn't a problem at all, in fact, a "glass like" sea / swell !!
We had a run to the ground on the 5 mile which produced a few nice fish with Pollack to the 6lb mark and a good number of Codling and ling. The lads at the end of the day all pleased with the outcome of the days efforts.
Ex professional footballer and now playing for Whitby Town F.C Lee Bullock joined us for today's trip. This was his maiden sea trip in the U.K and he was delighted with his dozen fish. The rest of the group ending up with similar amounts plus oodles of Mackerel !!
Lee is pictured.
I now have the 2016 Whitby tide tables with me so if you want to get your trips booked early you're more than welcome to.

Alan Yates from Driffield, East Yorkshire and his family and friends joined the boat today .
The fishing wasn't a patch on yesterdays efforts numbers wise but we certainly had some better quality fish.
One of the first fish on board was a Ling just shy of 19lbs which fell to Richard which was a personal best for him. Well done mate.
The next top quality fish was a cracking Pollock of 12lbs caught by Ken, but the finest fish on board was undoubtedly a Tub Gurnard whcih was caught by Alan's Niece, Ellie.
Her cracking specimen was 3lbs 8oz and is a personal best for her and also the boat. We just don't see Gurnard of that quality here at Whitby so a massive well done to her too!!
A very happy Ellie is pictured. -

An astonishing amount of cod out on the 20 mile stream just recently.
Three of our favourite wrecks producing very well indeed. An abundance of sprats keeping the fishing going here for the lads.
Dave Coxhill and his mates from Manchester were among the mixed group today. Dave and his 3 pals landed 94 cod between them which was very impressive indeed. The rest of the crew averaging around 15 to 20 fish each. But the star of today's show was undoubtedly a regular to the boat, Steve Bulliment from Market Weighton, East Yorks.
Steve managed an amazing 50 cod himself for the day!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A personal record for him. Well done mate.

The September angling competition ended here last Sunday and was a success after a shaky start for bad weather.
I'll firstly congratulate my old mate of many decades, skipper Paul Eddon off the Trot-On on his second festival win here this year at Whitby. His cracking Ling of 21lb 11oz taking the top prize of £1000.00 in cash. Well done mate!!!
The lads who fished aboard the Shy-Torque enjoyed some terrific sport too. Our best fish in the competition fell to Phil Parkes, a regular on the boat, with a lovely cod of 17lb 6oz. His fish winning him a first daily prize. Many more fish in the teens too.
The Shy-Torque anglers yet again taking more daily prizes in total than any of the other entrants and boats over the two week event.
Well done to all our anglers and a massive "thanks again" for your ongoing loyalty to the boat. Much appreciated.
Phil Parkes is pictured with his cod of 17lb 6oz

After a week off work for strong Northerly's we sailed again today quite trepidant. We fully expected to find the water to be cloudy but were pleasantly surprised to find it was still clear enough to have a fantastic days shad fishing. 9 anglers boated over 150 cod to just under 9lb. All the fish taken off just 2 wrecks some 18 miles from shore.
Places left in this competition are (3 on 15th Sept and 1 on the 16th Sept.
Great sport at present lads.
Get your places booked while it's committing suicide!!!
Tight lines
