  • 19/10/2012 Fishing Report by Rich Cope on Mistress (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    19 Oct 2012 by Rich Cope

    Report on-board Mistress

    What a cracking day we had today!

    With the tides being a bit lively still and the clarity not being exactly perfect, we decided on a run offshore to work the wrecks on the 20 mile stream.
    The tide times werent perfect either so I got the crew gathered for a 630am sailing to get an extra hour of tide to help us on our way!

    The first wreck yielded nothing! so we steamed a further 3 miles to our next wreck, Bingo! we fished steadily for a couple of hours, taking fish on all patterns and colours of shad and also squid. The bait took the better fish.
    everyone onboard had some lovely cod to take home by the time we finished at our 2nd wreck.

    With an hour or two left we moved to wreck nearby, and with a few drifts we had the fish boxes bulked out further, a couple of the drifts had Deano running round like a headless chicken with the net, with fish all around the 8lb - 9lb mark.
    A good finish to the end of an already good days angling aboard Mistress

    Pictured are the lads with a few of their fish at the end of the day.

  • 10/2012 Fishing Report by Rich Ward on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    Oct 2012 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    In my opinion the best months of the year for the big cod offshore are just around the corner here at Whitby.

    Once the herring spawn is out of the way we can expect the cod to be feeding properly on the bottom again.

    Some cracking fish well in to double figures from this time onwards last year.

    Here's hoping for the same again this year!!

    Have a look on our availability calendar and get a trip booked soon for some lovely winter cod!!

    Tight lines

    Rich.

  • 15/10/2012 Fishing Report by Rich Cope on Mistress (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    15 Oct 2012 by Rich Cope

    Report on-board Mistress

    October 2012

    We are still only half way through October I know, the weather has turned a bit now, but the fishing still remains good here at Whitby when we can actually get to sea.

    The past couple of weeks the water inshore has coloured due to a few days of bad weather, meaning we have had to search futher afield for the fish. The days we have got offshore working the wrecks 20 miles + from Whitby, we have experienced some exellent days sport for the anglers aboard Mistress. The days have seen a rod average easily of 10-15+ fish per angler on the shads.

    As the month draws on the weather may give us some bad conditions, the strong SW winds allow us to fish inside at anchor, boat casting for the cod. The shore fishing season has started now (being a keen shore angler I know what is being caught up and down the coast), there are alot of codling in the 2lb to 4lb bracket being caught and we are seeing fish approaching double figures also.

    The uptide competition runs November 10th to 18th and Im sure we will see some cracking fish weighed in, there are still a few places available, please contact me on 07977 436 903 to secure your places, Mistress won the Uptiding competition last year taking 1st and 3rd place.

    Pictured are the lads from one of the days offshore with a just a few fish from their catch.

  • 06/10/2012 Fishing Report by sally keys on High Flyer 2 (Great Yarmouth, Norfolk)

    6 Oct 2012 by sally keys

    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    First ever experience fishing, and even more exciting that it was at sea, and we could eat what we caught.

    Little bit daunted by the fact that me and my mum were inexperienced both with boats and with fishing, but we held our own and caught the same, if not more, than some of the seasoned experts with a little help and banter.

    As a day out it was lovely to go out onto the open waters of a coastline that we regularly walk the dog along.

    Lessons i have learnt from the day are; to pack sun cream (whatever the weather) wear wellies (whatever the weather) and make sure that all valuables are in a zip pocket (our skipper Jon demonstrated the dangers by loosing his camera to the sea) and probably a good idea to take sickness pills....just incase!

    Already looking forward to the next trip (maybe in warmer weather) as i am now clearly and expert "jigger"

  • 13/10/2012 Fishing Report by jon old on High Flyer 2 (Great Yarmouth, Norfolk)

    13 Oct 2012 by jon old

    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    Today our hands were tied as regards the tide , we needed to fish straight away as slack was upon us. we headed into the Roads straight into whitting a plenty and few flatties. Moved slightly inshore as other boats turned up still catching whitting , few keepers among them. After few hours we decided to move again offshore to the Corton bank staying until nearly slack still with the whitting! Moved again to the 5 mile mark to try our luck on a wreck over slack results were terrible. One mackerel for our efforts, water not clear enough. Ended our day back on the bank for the last hour few flatties and whitting again! Thanks to Noel,Kev,Adam,Mike,Lee,Rob,James,Alan and Steve, much appreciated men, needs to be a bit colder for those cod. Sorry about the couple of hundred whitting! jon.

    Report on-board Discovery

    SAT 13TH OF OCTOBER JOES TRIP,
    We left the marina at 11.15am to flat calm conditions. We gave the lads a demo of how to use the gear and how to put there bait on correctly.we had anchored a mark which we thought would produce cod although it is early,as it is so easy to get fed up with whiting all day,so we had big baits for cod,the first fish came in about 35 mins a nice 2.5 lb cod we stayed here for three hours and then made a couple of moves before we settled down and fished the flood our total catch was 5 codling and many whiting,overall it was a good day for the time of year it should be different on the next set of tides

  • 10/2012 Fishing Report by Ross Parham on Spot On! (Brixham, Devon)

    Oct 2012 by Ross Parham

    Report on-board Spot On!

    It has been a while since the weather has allowed Spot On! to get out over the weekends.

    Weather was fair to say fresh with westerly force 4/5.

    The day was slow and we had to search around the wrecks finding pollock and loads of pout and eventualy some bass.

    All in all a hard days work but worth while in the end after finding the fish we went searching for.

    Spot On! is now taking bookings for 2013 and starting channel island trips, 3,4,5 day trips available.
