Report on-board Sweet William
Massive thanks to the guys and girls for a great run out today at short notice. A lovely PB Ling for Ryan, and yes, finally, we got Amelia a cracking Ling! Some fantastic double and treble shots of Codling coming up steadily throughout the day, with some solid Pollack and Coalies also coming aboard. Great craic as always, with dolphins to finish the day off in style as we entered the piers on the run home.

Massive thanks to Nick from the Northumberland Inshore Fisheries and Conservation Authority for organising a run out yesterday with family and friends. We made the most of a short weather window, and found Ewan (who was on vacation from the USA) and Dom a lovely stamp of mackerel for the BBQ that evening. We had literally one drop on a wreck with baited hooks, and Susie wasted no time in finding a fantastic Cod before the cruise home!

We had a wet and wild run out yesterday for Tog and the Barnsley lads from the Keel Inn angling club. Thankfully the choppy seas eased off into the afternoon, but the rain stayed relentless for the majority of the day. Some great stamp of Codling, Ling and Pollack, and plenty of mackerel pretty much all day, making an appearance despite the testing conditions.

A chilly, choppy and windy morning whilst finding some mackerel, turned into a sunny, flat calm afternoon. Great craic with the lads, with some lovely Codling, Ling, Whiting, Haddock, Pouting, Pollack and plenty of Mackerel. Young Tyler taking top rod for the number of fish caught, and Andy finding a fantastic Cod just shy of 15lb.

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Yesterday’s group were a mixed lot of regulars and newcomers to us.
View Boats Page
Condition wise, the sea state was great compared to the day previous making the fishing much easier.
The Mackerel were abundant again although the stamp was a few sizes down on Wednesday’s catch. Plenty again in just the one drift.
With nearly all our fish coming off the ground on Wednesday, we chose to do the same run as then. A different day altogether with a mere 15 or so Codling coming aboard in the first couple of hours.
We had a chat and young crew man Fergus and the lads agreed we should have a run off to a couple of wrecks. No the best move ever but we did find a few.
For some reason I thought that the grounds back inside would fish on the change of tide onto the ebb and it did.
We finished the day off nicely there and some nice plump Codling were boated.
Tally for the day, 50-60 keepers with the usual juveniles to throw back.
Regular angler with us Paul Mawson landing the heaviest of the day with a nice Ling of 12lb 02oz. His fish taking the lead in the Shy-Torque III fish of the month competition where the heaviest of the month wins a fee trip. Good luck to him.
Cheers for now,
Rich

Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
First day back out today after a 10 day lay off for Big Spring Tides and poor weather.
View Boats Page
We headed out this morning with a mixed group of lads, with the intention of fishing a few wrecks, as it was a 4.7m tide. After a bouncy exit through the pier ends on the Northerly swell, we set about catching some Mackerel for bait. First stop at 3 miles gave us loads for the day, which was good.
With a hour to go of the Ebb we dropped onto a couple of the inshore wrecks. Most of the lads went in with muppet bait traces with Squid or Mackerel. We had a few fish, usually 1 or 2 a drift with David Kwapisz taking a nice early Codling of 5lb. We kept on the move for the remainder of the day, looking for a wreck that would give us a decent return. Unfortunately, we just kept picking up a handful of fish off the ones we tried.
Once the Flood tide had run through, the drift speed increased dramatically and we ran onto some rough ground to end the day. It wasn’t sensational, but Jamie Britton and Don Wang both picked up a 7lb Cod and Ling apiece, within seconds of each other.
Mackerel was the dominant bait today, but I found the lack of consistency frustrating. Everyone kept on trying all day and caught a few, but it certainly wasn’t sensational. Thanks to everyone who came for the day out, you were all excellent company.UPCOMING INDIVIDUAL SPACES ONBOARD Sea Urchin IIl

After due deliberation, we decided to give it a go yesterday.
View Boats Page
There was a NW swell running which made the run out a very steady one.
First stop was the 3 mile area to see if the Mackerel were still running after a week off for the big Spring tides and they were there all right. Strings of them and enough in one drift to give us the fresh bait for the day!
Our next move was to some ground on the 5 mile and we picked a few Codling up there. Baited rigs better than the artificial lures there for sure.
Our next stop was a short strip of ground on the 7 mile where we picked away on the Codling for a few hours. The fish falling to the Shads there too, indicating the water was a lot clearer a few more miles out.
Good sport.
There were a couple of green bellies on board today, but as I always do, if some are feeling queasy and fall to the old “mal de mer” I always give them some fish which my crewman Fergus and I catch.
Tally for the day, around 35 keepers, which, in challenging conditions at times was a fair result.
Mark Konowski taking the best bag. 8 nice fish home with him.
Cheers lads,
Rich
