Report on-board Mistress
Today on Mistress we had a mixed party which consisted of mainly novices, many of whom had never fished before.
We worked ground today with mainly shads, and by the end of the day I was pleasantly surprised to see what we had caught. The rod average on the boat was easily over 10 fish per person, with many fish thrown back too. No big ones today unfortunately but the crew made up for it with numbers of fish.
another great day afloat with a top bunch of people, well done everyone.
Heres a pic of the lads and lasses with a few of their catch. View Boats Page

Report on-board Mistress
Another day wrecking today. Only three lads showed up this morning but I went to sea anyway. The day started slowly due to a fresh breeze behind the tide pushing us along at a fair old rate of knots! We managed a few fish until the tide eased, but nothing spectacular.
Once the tide eased though it was a different story, I got the lads on bait and they were instantly into the Ling, with the odd Cod thown in for good measure.
we had a couple of good hours that produced plenty of fish for everyone.
Best angler today was regular lad Dave Nixon. He wont bait fish, he loves shadding, he persevered today despite only catching around half a dozen fish. The fish he did catch though were all stonkers! Not to mention the one he lost back into the wreck which I would imagine would have been into the 20's. his four best cod were 14lb 8oz, 12lb, 10lb and 8lb, Dave was delighted with his fish and also setting himself a new PB.
pictured is Dave with his two best fish of the day View Boats Page

Report on-board Mistress
Glorious sunshine today from the start! Plenty of suntan lotion required!
We still have small tides at the minute so wrecking was the order of the day.
A stop at the Bell Buoy on the way out produced some mackerel bait for us so we set off on our way. The first wreck we got to, some of the lads were still in mackerel mode so down went feathers and found even more mackerel, some were only joeys so we popped them on as live baits and got instant results with Ling and Cod.
We carried on fishing the wrecks all day, we had a few tussels with a dastardly seal that kept stealing fish (yes there were a few choice words muttered!)
but all in all we had a fantastic day everyone had at least a box of fish to take home with them, the lads were returning fish through the day as they had caught enough.
We had many fish onboard over 10lb today, the biggest Ling was 16lb, biggest Cod was 12lb.
Local lad and regular aboard Mistress, Faron Trueman with the best Ling of the day View Boats Page

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
With the conditions settled and a sea like a mill pond we decided to open the taps and run to a couple of wrecks well offshore on Friday with some cracking results!
The shads fished well with the water being as clear as Gin. However the best fish on the day was that of Fred Mallander. A cracking cod of 16lb 5oz which took a cocktail of fresh mackerel and squid.
Happy anglers all round with fab conditions and a good bag of fish each.

Chris Dalby from Chesterfield joined us on the boat on Thursday and out fished everyone including me ( and that's not allowed !!! )
The fishing in the morning was slow to say the least but after the change of tide things picked up and the ground on the 9 mile produced some cracking cod to just over 15lbs. Best ling on the day was just under 12lbs.
The baited Hokkais and cocktail rigs are still outfishing any artificial lures at the moment.

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
There have been some cracking fishing this week aboard the Shy-Torque.
We sailed a little earlier to try a wreck some 24 miles off shore. We haven't been to it for some time and expectations were running high on the way out!
With just 8 lads on board there was a load of room and hopefully a load of fish on the wreck. Sadly there wasn't!! However with some perseverance we managed to pull around 40 fish from it over a couple of hours so not too bad. Biggest fish was a 14lb ling caught by Nigel Hall from Richmond. He also had an 11lb cod on the same drop!
Pictured is Nigel with his double. View Boats Page
