Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Had a run off yesterday after a short break away. Wasn't sure what to expect as the weather hasn't really been that good for offshore work.
View Boats Page
Regular Shy-Torque angler Bill Barraclough from Barnsley joined us with a couple of others, Matt and John from Mersyside.
A run out to a couple of mid distance wrecks proved to be great for us all. The fish were flying aboard at one point and Bill managed a couple of "doublers" and even a treble!! He fished the bait all day and ended up with around 20 fish himself!
With the water as clear as gin and alive with sprats, this made the shad and sidewinder fishing terrific as well. I personally had nearly 30 Cod myself, all taken on the artificials. Great sport especially for the time of year.
The lads are pictured with some of their haul!
We have a few days coming up shortly with individuals booked on so if you fancy joining them check out the calendar and give me a ring.
The competition dates for anyone who doesn't have them yet are as follows :-
Spring comp :- April 7th - 22nd inc.
Summer :- June 23rd - July 15th Inc.
Late Summer :- Sept 15th - 30th inc.
There is still availability in all the competitions but the Summer one is starting to get a fair bit of interest as usual.
We only have 5 days left in the Summer comp where the boat is empty, so if you were wanting a club booking check out the calendar for those.
As always we are taking lots of individual bookings so there a good number of days where you can join others on the boat too.
Tight lines
