    Report on-board Mistress

    The weather this morning was absolutely attrocious, we all got a proper dowsing with the rain. its didnt dampen the lads spirits though, they fished steadily getting a mixture of cod, pollock, ling, mackerel, pouting, whiting and coaly. Pictured is Shaun from Notts with a 15lb Ling - the best of the day.

    Report on-board Mistress

    What a brilliant day today. we fished the inshore wrecks, starting at only 3 miles offshore we took a large amount of fish off the first wreck the best going 15lb! I was feeling quite chuffed for the lads, the next wreck then threw up an 11lber, then moving onto the third we got a lovely 16lb cod. the lads fished well.

    22 Aug 2011 by Rich Cope

    Report on-board Mistress

    Today we had another go on the inshore wrecks, the tides dropped further today & the party today were a little more experienced. We were straight into pollack and cod at the begining of the day with five or six fish a drift coming onboard. we were managing to fish 2 wrecks with the same drift, it was frantic at times with the fish that were coming up. again we got baits into the wrecks as the tide eased taking plenty of Ling. We saw a number of double figure fish today, best Ling of 12lb 8oz fell to Paul Cree, and best Cod of 10lb fell to Tomas, well done lads.

  • 21/08/2011 Fishing Report by Rich Cope on Mistress (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    21 Aug 2011 by Rich Cope

    Report on-board Mistress

    Fishing still remains good here at Whitby, today was no exception. The tides have been easing a bit giving us chance to get on the inshore wrecks, which have been throwing up some great fish! While the tide was running the lads were fishing a mixture of Jellyworms and shads taking pollack and cod, then once the tide eased we got some baits in to the wrecks and got ourselves a ling or two! The star of the show today was nine year old Tom, he fished well taking the biggest fish on the boat with a Ling of 12 lb 8oz. giving him a new PB. Hopefully his dad wont be too upset about being outfished! well done mate.

  • 21/08/2011 Fishing Report by Dave Hunkin on Bessie Vee (Mevagissey, Cornwall)

    21 Aug 2011 by Dave Hunkin

    Report on-board Bessie Vee

    The Bess had her first shark trip of the year on Sunday 21st August, with six fishing. Weather was fine, so pushed out to 16 miles, where we started the drift. Within 10 minutes of getting the lines away, we had our first blue on line, which managed to swim round and bite through the main line, so not a great start!
    However, before being able to re-rig the rod, we had another run resulting in a clean hook-up, this one a 50lb-er.
    Once all six rods were back out, and we thought we had time for a cuppa, we had three on at once. Luckily, one dived deep, one went forward and one went aft, so we were able to play all three at once. No whoppers, (30 - 40lb), but good sport.

    The day went on to produce another ten blue shark, the best of which was battled and caught by Guy (see pic). Fourteen blues on one day set the record number for the Bessie Vee - so far! The same group will be back next month to try again.

    21 Aug 2011 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Some fantastic weather this last couple of weeks here at Whitby. The fishing has been very good indeed with some nice catches of cod and ling being landed on the Shy Torque III ( see catches section ) .

    The big ling have started to poke their noses out again!! This last week seeing two over 22lb on the boat. Both fish being caught on the rough ground.

    This stamp of fish is easily big enough to win any competition held here at Whitby !! The next one being the September competition which starts on the 10th Sept and finishes on the 25th Sept. Big cash prizes again in this comp lads so give me a ring if your interested in grabbing a "grand" before the end of the year !!

    Hope your all having a great years angling wherever you are.

    Pictured is Konrad Kiernozcki on his maiden trip on the boat with a 22lb 8oz Ling.

    Regards
    Rich

  • 08/2011 Fishing Report by Lyle Stantiford on Supanova II (Weymouth, Dorset)

    Aug 2011 by Lyle Stantiford

    Report on-board Supanova II

    Hi all,

    A while since the last report.

    Fishing throughout July and early August has proved a little tricky at times! Although catches have still been pretty steady.

    The Bass have been very slow in showing unfortunately but over the next set of spring tides we should hopefully see their return in some reasonable numbers.

    The breaming on it's day has been superb, wit fish quite frequently in the 3-4lb bracket, with an angler on another Weymouth boat taking a fish of 6lb 1oz just three days a go!

    The plaice fishing has been superb on the mussel beds with many fish of specimen size. July- October is the time to get a big Plaice. How many places can you go in the country and be in with a reaistic chance of a Plaice over 6lb's?

    The shambles and other sand banks to the west of Portland have continued to produce Turbot and Brill with some sessions producing up to 20 fish!

    Among the reefs sport is continuing with masses of Gurnards, Good Huss, Tope and Congers.

    The wrecks are fairly quiet, with most boats sticking to the more productive inshore fishing, however those venturing out are finding one or two cod still lurking around, odd pollack and bass. The best of the wreck sport has been on the anchor with some good congers to 70lb the odd ling and some monster bream!

    The next month should hopefully bring better numbers of Bass and Bream, continued turbot and brill, and hopefully the long awaited rod bending blonde rays!!

    Tight lines all!

    Lyle
