    Report on-board Mistress

    17/4/15 - Another top days ‪wrecking‬ today here at ‪Wwhitby‬ , I returned to where I'd finished off yesterday, I knew I'd left fish behind so returned for a second installment!

    The fishing started much the same as it did yesterday morning, From the first drop, every rod bent into fish, again the quickest lads getting down for a 2nd fish on each drift.

    It didn't seem to matter what colour or pattern of ‪shad‬ was offered, the cod were smashing them as soon as they hit bottom, we fished here all morning until the tide eased and the fish went off.
    A quick move to wreck nearby for slack water saw us take a steady picking of fish to bait, including a couple of bonus Pollock to lures. Eventually the tide started pushing and we moved a little closer to home working a few ground marks.

    The lads were getting a double hook ups of Codlings as we drifted with the start of the new tide, unfortunately as the tide started running full bore, the fishing tailed off and we set of for home, most of the lads manged on average around 20 fish apiece some more, some less, but there were lots of in size fish returned again by the lads.

    If you fancy a trip with me, give me a call on 07977 436903, or drop me a message on my FB page, Mistress Sea Angling Charters,

    16 Apr 2015 by Rich Cope

    Report on-board Mistress

    The spring run of cod this year at ‪whitby‬ has been and continues to be phenomenal!

    Today 16/4/15 has been the best day at sea since I started chartering full time in 2012.

    We got away to slow start on a couple of wrecks on the way out to where I wanted to be, we were still catching fish but just a slow picking, until I made the move to where i wanted to be.

    Drift after drift we got every rod into fish, some lads getting a second go at the fish, we carried on picking away until the tide eased and fishing also eased with it. We fished through slack water dropping big baits into the wreck looking for a festival contender, finally Andy Holmes from Castleton, managed to latch into something a bit better, a nice ling, it looked to be around 8/9lb, then his mate Martin boated a nice cod around 8lb.

    The tide got away and we moved to another mark nearby, I could tell as soon as i saw the activity on the sounder we were in for some more fireworks!

    As with the previous wreck, drift after drift every rod bent into fish, you could feel the fish fighting each other for the shads, by 2pm we had caught and returned lots of fish and I called lines up for a steady steam in to give the lads plenty of time to sort their catch.

    Back at the weigh in Andy's fish managed to take 1st position of the day netting him £50, the Ling went 9lb 12oz making it the 2nd heaviest fish of the competition so far, as the tides ease again next week, we should see a few better fish start coming to the scales.

    If you fancy a trip with me on ‪‎Mistress‬ give me a call on 07977 436903,

  • 15/04/2015 Fishing Report by Dave Saunders on Bay Surveyor (Brixham, Devon)

    15 Apr 2015 by Dave Saunders

    Report on-board Bay Surveyor

    Bay Surveyor is the ideal 2 man species hunting vessel, with a WOT speed of 36+ knots she is the fastest charter boat in Brixham. With the approaching Bass season she is the ideal vessel for the fisherfolk to target their favourite quarry. Being an Aluminium built vessel she is ideal for those close inshore rock marks.
    We have a wide selection of quality lures available should you forget to bring your own, plus, we have some great bass rods available, should you forget the rod as well..

    Recent calm weather has allowed us to visit some Cod and Pollack wrecks with great results..

  • 15/04/2015 Fishing Report by Rich Ward on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    15 Apr 2015 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Some superb fishing aboard the boat this last few weeks with a good number of our anglers leaving for home with up to 30 cod each. A great days sport by anyone's standards!!!

    The water is abundant with Spring feed at present and with the clarity being so good too we are really having some bumper days fishing on the shads.

    The best bit is that we are only steaming for half an hour before we start giving one and all some terrific action all day long!!

    The prospects for the forthcoming season really are looking handsome for the Shy-Torque anglers.
    If you fancy a slice of this amazing early season action or fancy making any bookings for later on in the year, give me a ring any time during the day up till 8pm (any day)

    Pictured is Paul Deardon from South Yorkshire Fire & Rescue.
