  • 10/06/2018 Fishing Report by Carl Farrar on TROT- ON (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    10 Jun 2018 by Carl Farrar

    Report on-board TROT- ON

    Sunday saw Whitby's Premier charter boat Trot On visit a few offshore wrecks searching for clearer water due to the weeks winds which had clouded the water inshore a little. We were pestered by seals on several wrecks but still managed to bag a mixture of Cod, Pollack and Ling to around 6lb caught on a mixture of Shad, Bait and Hokki's
    Regular Trot On angler Chris Mangan had quite a fight with one seal who decided he wanted Chris's Cod for his dinner. Unfortunately the seal won. Although the score for the day ended with Chris 0 - Sammy the Seal 1
    All the anglers had plenty of other fish to take home.

    Chris won the W.C.S.A Summer festival last year aboard Trot On with a MASSIVE Ling of 33lb 4oz which netted Chris £5000 for the 1st place prize. The 2018 Summer festival starts on June 23rd till July 15th. Paul still had some spaces and dates available so to be in with your chance of winning this years £5000 prize give him a call on 07766995847 and join him on Whitby's Premier Charter boat TROT ON

  • 06/2018 Fishing Report by Rich Ward on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    Jun 2018 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Pete Devonland from Warwickshire and his 6 mates joined us yesterday for their 1st trip of the year.

    A nice gentle offshore breeze welcomed us on the morning so we decided a run to a couple of offshore wrecks was in order to start the day.

    First stop didn't produce much at all to be honest with just a couple of codling and a dozen mackerel coming up.

    The second mark however proved to be a good move with fish coming aboard from the off. The lads took around 50 fish from it which pretty much saw us through to the end of the day as we had a good distance to run back home.

    The fish of the day was this beauty caught by Terry from London weighing in at 17 lb 14 oz. My lad Adam reminded me that the Summer competition starts next weekend and it would have been great to catch him then! We will be chasing his bigger brother then!!!!!!

    Great to see you all again lads and we look forward to sailing with you again.

    Terry is pictured inset.

    *LOOK* ------------ JUST 2 DAYS LEFT WITH ROOM IN SUMMER COMPETITION.
    TUESDAY 4TH JULY. ROOM FOR 2 ANGLERS.
    THURSDAY 12TH JULY. ROOM FOR 2 ANGLERS.
    INDIVIDUALS WELCOME AS ALWAYS.

    1ST PRIZE OF £5000.00 IN CASH AGAIN THIS YEAR.!!!!!!

  • 05/2018 Fishing Report by Lewis hodder on Pegasus (Lyme Regis, Dorset)

    May 2018 by Lewis hodder

    Report on-board Pegasus

    May Report- What a month, awesome weather especially the later half of the month we managed 24 days at sea in May and today is the first day ashore after a spell of 17 straight days at sea.
    Great to sea some early Bream being caught in one particular area, plenty of fish up to 3lb 9oz with 90% being returned due to the time of year. We’ve also seen plenty of pollack to low double figures, hounds to 7lb, huss to 10lb, Plaice to 2lb, small congers, 4 different types of wrasse, occasional tub gurnards and a few rays. There might of even been the odd dogfish and pout mixed in.... later in the month saw the arrival of a nice few mackerel, great to see them in good numbers at this time of year again.
    Wreck fishing has been patchy, plenty of congers up to 50-60lb on the anchor if that’s your thing. Some days have seen a nice few cod and Pollack with Cod to 8lb and Pollack up to 14lb where as other days the fish have been extremely hard to find. We did have a first ever Coalfish on a crossing to Alderney in a mid channel wreck in late may and I have heard of a few more being caught not too far away, let’s hope this is the start of a comeback for the coalfish on the south coast.
    Great to see so many anglers enjoying Lyme Bay and beyond though with plenty of old faces and a few new ones thrown in as well.

    June availability;

    Saturday 16th Inshore 8am-4pm £50

    Friday 29th Inshore 8am-4pm £50 Bream, Pollack, Plaice
    Evening species league 5-9pm £35 including bait and entry fee.

    I also have the following dates available for whole boat bookings or individuals. 25th, 26th, 27th, 28th building tides all that week. There could be the possibility of a first go at a shark trip for the year?

  • 14/06/2018 Fishing Report by Rich Cope on Mistress (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    14 Jun 2018 by Rich Cope

    Report on-board Mistress

    Its been around a week since our last update from Whitby.
    We've had a mixed week with ups and downs with weather. The better fishing is still inshore. We've seen a mixture of species including Ballan wrasse. Sea scorpions, tadpole fish, lesser spotted doggies plus the usual suspects.

    We've worked wrecks and reefs with baited hokkais and shads over the smaller tides and as theyve lifted weve hàd more northerly swell and the inshore has coloured up again so we got the anchor back out the last two days.

    Our best day was yesterday uptiding where between 6 of us we boated over 100 codlings best angler getting over 30 himself. The biggest was ounces short of 10lb.

    We've plenty of space midweek and also over the upcoming festival. The entry fee is usually around £5 per person on top of your charter fee.

    If your interested in a trip with me on Mistress whether youre experienced or a novice gìve me a call or text on 07977 436903

  • 11/06/2018 Fishing Report by Nick Halstead on Queensferry (Scarborough, North Yorkshire)

    11 Jun 2018 by Nick Halstead

    Report on-board Queensferry

    Monday 11th June. A scheduled 7 hour trip turned into 8.5 hours thanks to Neil keeping us catching some lovely cod.
    Fished the southern land rock in almost perfect conditions with very light winds and a smallish tide. The catch consisted of almost all cod in the 3 to 7lb range and in excess of 70 keepers to the boat with no end of smaller fish returned.
    The fish came to both bait and lures, fresh worms and mussel took a lot of fish but the stand out bait was undoubtedly a large squid bait which although didn't take the numbers of fish as the worms it certainly produced the bigger stamp.
    Best lures were a sandeel type of shad with all colours seemingly effective.
    All in all a fantastic enjoyable day with plenty of top quality fillets for the freezer.

  • 06/2018 Fishing Report by Matt Forrester on Silver Halo (Torquay, Devon)

    Jun 2018 by Matt Forrester

    Report on-board Silver Halo

    Several of my Lyme Bay wrecks have been producing plenty of good sport. The last couple of weeks we have run several lure / wrecking trips with catches of approx 20 pollack between 4 anglers each time. Lots of pollack between 6 and 8lb and the biggest at 13.8lb, we've also had several bigger fish lost close to the wrecks!
    Cod were showing well a few weeks ago but have become a bit harder to find last couple of weeks, biggest going 7lb plus we had a couple of small Ling to 11lb.
    Mackerel are now showing up in greater numbers.
    Water temps are now good and we've loads of bait fish around :)
    Please get in touch and make that booking, spaces still available !

    Weymouth Angling Breaks - *** NOW TAKING BOOKINGS FOR 2018 and 2019 *** Don't Miss Out
    A few days away fishing out of Weymouth along with the social side is a nice trip to do.The variety of fishing and the amount of different species caught at Weymouth is probably second to none.There are plenty of places to stay which are angler friendly and some excellent places to wine and dine around the harbour and in Weymouth Town centre.
    If you want to try a Weymouth Angling Break then contact me, I cater for whole boat charters and individuals.
    Planning your trip well in advance is essential you need to arrange your boat booking and your accommodation as early as possible to avoid disappointment, some of my regular groups plan their trips at least 12 months in advance, this allows them to discuss with me the best tides for the type of fishing they are targeting.
