Report on-board Mistress
Its 2345hrs and I've litterally just got in from my two trips today, we have absolutely smashed the cod all day and all night here at Whitby!
Our day trip saw the Mistress anglers boat well over 100 cod with quite a few chuck backs, the best lad boating around 25 fish himself, my mate and local Mistress regular Alan Ward messaged me to say him and his pal had 4 stone in fillets between them and had had a fantasic day with us, absolutely awesome fishing by any standards.
Our night trip saw the lads (and lasses) boat around 60 cod again with a few chuck backs.
Best baits were Black lug, unwashed squid and crab cart. Which i can supply if required.
The uptiding this year has seen more consistent and better bags of fish per angler than the wreck and ground fishing.
Tomorrow is the start of the uptide festival with a massive £1000 for the first prize with only £5 per person entry fee on top of your charter.
We have plenty of midweek dates available throughout the event, the whole of the two weeks has awesome tides.
If you fancy a trip with me give a call or text on 07977 436903 or message me on facebook (Mistress Sea Angling Charters)

Fishing Report by Rich Ward
on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
Nov 2017 by Rich Ward
Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Yet another fresh NW breeze welcomed us again yesterday here at Whitby, but as of late the forecast was to drop away all day long which thankfully it did. By 10am conditions for the offshore marks were good with a steady 10 mph Westerly breeze.
Tony Porter and his mates from Stoke on Trent joined us yesterday. The majority of the group were relatively new to the sea angling scene but were all well experienced fresh water anglers. With a little guidance and support we sharp had them knocking the fish out. The entire catch yesterday was caught on the bait. The best bait being squid again.
A good mixture of Cod and Ling for the lads. The best falling to the organiser Tony, a lovely Ling of 16 lb 15 oz.
Lithuanian Ricardas, "Dolf" managed the second heaviest of the day, another fine Ling of 16 lb 1 oz.
Tony and the lads are due to fish with us again in about 3 weeks. Lets hope for some more great fishing then lads.
"Dolf" and Tony are pictured with the 2 best of the day.
Cheers and tight lines

Fishing Report by Jason Parrott
on Lady Ann (Ramsgate, Kent)

Report on-board Lady Ann
Cracking day out again on Lady Ann with Jason Parrott and Stuart Stead.
Onboard was yours truly, Mark Curtis, John Stone and Ricky Graham also along for the ride was Craig Smissen. Weather was glorious sun was shining, no wind and sea was flat calm allowing us to push out a fair way. Fishing was fast and furious with Skate, Dogfish and Whiting coming onboard. Enough of that after a while so a move was called for. Again we were plagued with Whiting with the odd Skate and Dogfish still showing. The highlight of the day was the landing of two big Gurnard, the lucky captors were John Stone (3lbd ) and Mark Curtis (2lbd ) All in all a good day afloat and our thanks go to Jason and Stuart. As Arnie said, " we will be back ". View Boats Page

Report on-board Duke IV
Summer has hung on for as long as possible with the water temperature staying high we have been catching Bass, Mackerel and Scad on feathers and lugworm right up to November. With the wind picking up colouring the water we will be catching more Whiting and hopefully a few Cod. Skate fishing has been patchy with good numbers one day then struggle to find some the next. With a few large Cod being caught in the nets they are around so well worth fishing for with the chance of a large Bass or Skate along with good size Whiting. Plenty of weekdays and some weekend dates available on Duke lV. Flynn showed us how to catch Skate with the beauty pictured that he released.

Report on-board Brigand
A lovely day out today with a wonderful crew. We lost some big fish (Almost certainly Tope on one occasion & Bass on the other), landed a total of 12 species including Brill, Bass & John Dory and yet still have a nagging feeling we could have done better.
Weather looks settled for the next week and Cod appear to be present in sufficient numbers to actually target them so we have a little of that planned in the coming week.
A couple of places Thursday for a Cod & Bass trip 0757206543. View Boats Page

Fishing Report by Rich Ward
on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
Oct 2017 by Rich Ward
Report on-board Shy-Torque III
The last day off for the Shy-Torque was on Friday. We had a regular crew of well seasoned anglers on board who were happy to give it a go on what was something of a 50/50 forecast but was always a decreasing one.
The morning greeted us with a bit of a NW breeze, but nothing we hadn't all put away before and once we had got in to the deeper waters a couple of miles behind the bell bouy, the conditions were getting better all the time.
We pushed out to the 7 mile reefs to start the day where the lads managed around 10 or so fish in the first half hour or so. We then decided to move out to the 9 mile reefs and found the fishing to be much better . In total for the day the group of 6 managed a combined 60 plus fish. Another mixed selection with cod to 7lb and ling to a shade under 13lbs. Pat Armstrong from Cayton Bay just south of Whitby landing the heaviest fish of ther day.
The very happy crew are pictured.
LOOK LOOK The Shy-Torque will be doing "UPTIDING" trips or (inshore trips at anchor) this year over the winter months on the bigger tides. The price per angler will be £35.00 for the day and this includes hot drinks all day on every trip. Don't forget we have the only boat in Whitby with a heated anglers cabin where everyone can be seated if needs be, on those colder days!!!
We will sail with a minimum of 2 anglers and a maximum of 6 anglers on these trips.
The boat will of course still be available for the offshore trips too.
For any info on any trips, give me a call direct to my mobile on 07733 233352 or email at richardward384@yahoo.co.uk

My next Reef/Bank trips with places available is on November 12th *** Don't Miss Out ***.

Report on-board Mistress
Another few successful days this week at sea for lads aboard Mistress here at Whitby in between these bouts of shocking weather!
Tuesday's 6 hour trip had been planned in for a good while, with no other takers other than Harvey and Tyler from saltburn celebrating tylers birthday that was it, I couldn't let them down so took the two excited lads, even though they'd never been boat fishing before they both left with 8 cod apiece upto 4/5lb, and thrown loads more back, well done boys!
Wednesday we had a few regulars on, I thought we took a slow picking throughout the day but the lads had managed a respectable 50-60 codlings for the day upto 7lb, another great day.
Thursday was a bit slower, we got some inshore wrecks before dropping back inside uptiding taking fish everywhere, some spots better than others. Everyone still left with a good few fish apiece.
Black lug and squid fishing the best this week but fish still taking cart readily enough. We have bait available onboard if required please let me know your requirements the night before.
Martin at Whitby angling will be opening specially for our anglers on Tuesday and Thursday mornings when we have a late start. Please ignor any rumours that you might hear about whitby angling supplies closing down, they have some superb bait instock including crab cart, as well as top of the range tackle and accessories.
Uptide festival is fast approaching £1000 1st prize plus many other cash prizes available. Entry is £5 per person on top of the charter fee of £45.
There looks to be a gap in the weather Tuesday then Thursday onwards were currently taking bookings. I will be looking to be running a night trip next week please keep an eye out for updates, please give me a call if you're interested in a trip with us on 07977 436903

Fishing Report by Philip Higgins
on Mistress Linda / San Gina3 (Poole, Dorset)
27 Oct 2017 by Philip Higgins
Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3
As the summer species depart it is good to see the arrival of the Channel Whiting in good numbers and excellent quality for this early in the season. London based angler JJ bought his family and business partner for a day out and boated many good Whiting and several other species. As a bit of fun we went squid fishing for the 1st time not really knowing how to fish for them and as the sunset over the harbour we started to land a few and we only managed to get ‘inked’ once which caused a laugh , as the darkness drew in we kept catching squid and ended up with 1/2 a bucket full not bad for our 1st attempt. Join me on these trips and enjoy a day afloat fishing amongst good company.
