Great day out today with cod and Ling to over 8lb. Very quiet everywhere else so had to travel to find the fish. Sebastian and the boys certainly enjoyed themselves. Thanks to all who came aboard, look forward to seeing you again.

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

Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
Fabulous day out today, with a brilliant group of lads.
They fancied having a run off, so after the obligatory “Mackerel Fest” to collect bait, we headed out to a wreck at 17 miles. We had a steady picking with a couple of fish most drifts, but nothing to set the world on fire. Ling up to 7lb and few Codling to 4lb kept us entertained for a couple of hours.
A move to another wreck at 21 miles for slack water gave a much better result. First drift saw total carnage with all the anglers in at once, resulting in 13 fish coming aboard; including two double ups. We continued to get a few fish each drift (mainly Codling and Haddock) for the next 3 hours, before heading for home.
The lads caught a lot of the fish on baited shads today, with Rhubarb and Custard being particularly popular. Also, Tom Beaument deserves a special mention as he decided he fancied having a go with the black jelly worms. I've seen alot of people have a couple of drops them change if they don't catch. Tom stuck with it and caught some quality Pollock, which was great to see.
Not much else to add, other than, great angling boys, you were great company. See you next time. View Boats Page

Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
Finally….got a day back out at sea, after a weeks lay off with rubbish weather.
Thankfully the Mackerel hadn’t gone too far away, so we got plenty for bait, and then with the water inside looking a bit murky, we had a go on the 5 mile ground to start.
During the Ebb tide the fishing was, quite frankly; terrible for us, with nothing at all coming aboard.
As slack water approached we moved to a wreck and literally bang on slack we had two decent Ling on at the same time. Ian Kellock picked up an 11lb fish which was the biggest of the duo. Thankfully, as the flood tide got away, we picked away for a few hours with the Ling providing some welcome sport.
The Codling were elusive for us today. We had a group of anglers on today of mixed abilities, but they all took away a fry in the end. It was hard work, but spent in good company View Boats Page

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
A nice day on the water yesterday with my brother Martin and a few of his mates. A couple of other lads joined us on the trip too.
The morning started fairly slow with a sprinkling of keepers and a few throw backs.
We dropped on a wreck on slack water and it produced some nice fish for an hour or so.
Cod to 10lb and ling to 18lb, so all in all a fair picking for the lads at the end of the day.
Toby Johnson landing the best fish on board.
Still millions of mackerel about too!
The Uptiding Competition dates are 6th November to 21st November inc. Give me a bell if you fancy having a go in that. Tea and coffee will be available.
Cheers for now and keep a tight line.

Fishing Report by John Peck
on Lady Margaret (Poole, Dorset)
Aug 2021 by John Peck
Report on-board Lady Margaret
The fishing has been good during August after a rather subdued July. August has a reputation as being a difficult month but the last couple of years have produced some great fishing.
The plaice fishing during the month has generally been very good. There have been lots of good sized keepers around and most trips have produced fish in the 1kg range. The end of the month saw a higher proportion of smaller fish and a reduction in numbers. The inshore drifting trips have also been producing lots of tub gurnards and black bream.
Further out the anchored sessions have been producing a nice mixture of fish. The mackerel have been very erratic but there are some big ones around when you find them. There are lots of congers around along with tope and rays in addition to the usual dogfish.
The bass continue to be in relatively short supply but there are some good sized fish around. Our last trip out produced some nice middle weight fish along with a ten pounder our second double figure bass of the year on "Lady Margaret". View Boats Page

Fishing Report by Andy Savage
on Sea Urchin IIl (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
23 Aug 2021 by Andy Savage
Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
Today we spent the day, getting completely "anchored"!!
In the summer when the water is clear and the tides are running hot; with the exception of "slack water" the majority of the day is spent drifting rough ground. Whilst the rough ground can and has been productive, I have been wanting to try to add another tactical string to my/Sea Urchin's bow. Anglers who I've spoken to from the South Coast regularly anchor wrecks to fish for Cod, Ling and Conger, so I thought there must be some scope to try this around Whitby. If it means that I can get a few extra fish for the anglers on board in difficult conditions, I'm more than happy to give it a go.
With only crew on board, it gave us the time to practice in difficult conditions, so today we sorted out the mechanics of getting the drift right, drop off point right, right length of rope, right anchor, allowing for wind etc. Things went quite well and once we had achieved what we wanted, we had a couple of drops down ourselves.
We had a few Codling up to 8lb between us, plus the usual Pouting and Whiting. Considering the conditions today, with only two of us having a drop down, I was pleased with how things went.
It's early days, but I'm pretty excited with what the future may hold...... View Boats Page
