A busy weekend aboard Duke lV with Smoothounds to 9lb, some good Bass and plenty of Mackerel. Justin brought his kids down Sunday, they had a great time battling it out with the Hounds on the toothpick rod we use for the youngsters. We have some spaces available from mid August when we hope the larger Bass will be around. Tight lines ��

Fishing Report by Rich Ward
on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Hopefully other skippers will see this post.
RANT time!!
I’d like to thank a certain Mark Roberts, if that’s your real name? (Telephone number 07829889868) if that’s your real number? for not turning up this morning with your 6 associates. You have cost me and my lad our wages for the day.
I have seen and heard some stuff in my 40 years in the charter fishing game, but when I called him this morning at 6.55am to ask where he was, to which he replied, “nearly with you Rich, we are just on the bridge looking at the boats” I did start to worry, as the bridge I was looking at in Whitby had no pedestrians on it at all and just the bridge operators.
I asked him “what bridge are you on?” thinking they may be on the new road bridge further up the river, but oh no, apparently they were stood on a bridge in Jersey!! F*****g Jersey! Really!!!!
Now forgive me for being a little vexed about this but, getting mixed up with Whitby and Whitley Bay is a slight possibility but f*****g Jersey!!
Anyway, his number has now been passed on to all the other skippers here who will also now block him.
This job is hard enough in the first place without this happening. A man with a wooden head couldn’t get a fishing trip this wrong! Could they??????????
Our Charlie is working every chance he gets with me as he is saving like mad for his new motorbike in September and needs his wage more than ever! I hope he meets this lad one day!
Thinking about it now, with a cold beer in hand, I really hope his story was true and it’s cost them a lot of money on flights or a ferry for a completely wasted journey there.
Rant over.
On a brighter note, we did sail with the other 2 lads we had booked on, albeit a shorter trip than normal for obvious reasons and had some lovely Cod to 9lb 8 oz.
Cheers and keep a tight line!
Rich

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
The first group from Smith Brothers Electrical Engineers from Huddersfield sailed with us yesterday.
6 out of the 7 guys were inexperienced so a little guidance was required at times.
After a 10 minute mackerel session we decided that ground work was the order of the day and started work just 3 miles from land and basically sat there until 2pm until the speed of the drift was too quick.
Neil out fishing everyone and even managed a couple of “double ups” too.
The lads and lass then chose to return to port as they were staying over in Whitby and fancied a bite to eat and a beer!
All the fish was filleted down for them on the way back whilst our Charlie brought the boat home.
A fun day out with great company.
Cheers chaps and we’ll see your other team in a couple of weeks.

Fishing Report by Andy Savage
on Sea Urchin IIl (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
We’re back on the Spring tides again, which means that most of the trips will be spent drifting the rough ground off Whitby for the next few days.
Today we had a group of friends on board who were not hugely experienced boat anglers. They all chose to use my hire tackle, which at least meant they had the right gear for the job. There was a lot of “Micky” taking and banter all day, which was great to listen to. And pleasingly, there was also a decent number of fish caught!
Every drift saw anything from 2-6 fish come up today. It was probably a 50/50 split between Codling and Ling. We didn’t land anything huge, but the biggest Ling went 8lb and biggest Codling just over 7lb.
Every single fish fell to bait traces loaded with either Squid or fresh Mackerel and a 16oz lead today. The benefit of this tactic is; with everyone doing the same, it reduces the amount of tangles in big tides, which you get when people use Hokkai traces/multiple hook rigs. Less is definitely more in big tides.
Once the tide got away properly, the drift speed reached 2 knots, but the lads kept catching because they had the right gear and credit to them, they also fished really well.
Thanks for an entertaining day out boys……same time next year View Boats Page
