Report on-board Shy-Torque III
The April competition has just come to an end with some cracking weather making for a great couple of weeks here in Whitby. We on the Shy-Torque tried our best as always in these events but couldn't manage the big one. Our best fish in this comp being a ling of 12lb and a few ounces, some 3lb short of the overall winner. Never the less everyone who entered with us had a great time and enjoyed some good fishing. A good few daily prizes were won with us also. We'd like to thank all those who fished with us in this years event and hope to see you all again soon. Maybe you could have a crack at the big one in the Summer festival ( 18.06 - 10.07 ) Pictured is Terry Harrison from Halifax with a 1st daily prize winner of 10lb.

Report on-board Kellys Hero Charters
A good spell of sunny and settled weather in recent days has allowed us to get out onto the local reefs and banks.
Friday 22nd April we took out a local group of farmers and sons, some who had never stepped foot on a boat before. After a session of Mackerel catching the lads became fairly confident in rod handling so we ventured down to a reef for a spot of species hunting.
Species caught were:
Bull Huss
Dog Fish
Female Cuckoo Wrasse (returned Alive)
Pout whiting
Mackerel
Herring
Allice Shad (returned alive)

Report on-board Warrior II
Hi everyone and welcome to the 2011 season. Have just got Force Ten up and running after a long (13 wk wait for g/box to arrive) Did a shake down trip today and had a few Ling and Pouting. Dates available thru May and June but after that its very busy in diary. Last year was a great year for Sharking and we are hoping for a repeat so anyone wanting to book I am afraid its only selected weekdays left!
The reef fishing is a little slow at moment but sea temp is rising and the Congers will be snapping soon enough. Looking fwd to seeing regulars and new faces this year. Good Luck and tight lines, Pete Davis View Boats Page

Fishing Report by Paul Smith
on Rapid Fisher (Poole, Dorset)

Report on-board Rapid Fisher
With calm seas and blazing sunshine Rapid Fisher headed yet again for the famous Shambles Banks. A steady 22 knots saw us arrive at our spot fashionably early!! With the boat set up for the drift a tell tale nod on Dave's rod meant we were in the right spot. Sure enough after Dave giving the fish time to take his mackerel bait he lifted into a solid lump. A short fight ensued and the net was slipped under a fine fish. The scales read 20lbs which was the biggest Turbot for both Rapid Fisher & Dave!
More drifts resulted in plenty of missed bites until Paul managed to connect with a reasonable fish. Carefully playing it to the net we all thought is was going to be another 20lber but luckily for Dave Paul's fish only weighed in at 15lbs! Several more double figure fish were netted throughout the drift bringing our tally to 10.
On the last drift a good 10lbers was netted when there was a shout from Gary saying he had hooked into a monster! Sure enough he expertly guided it to the waiting net hoping that it was a personal best. As you can see from his grin the fish indeed was a PB for both him & the boat weighing in at 23lbs.
As we headed for home with coffee in hand there was time to reflect over a successful days fishing. A 12 Turbot tally with 4 over 10lbs, a 15lber & 2 twenties made this a day to remember. View Boats Page

Report on-board She Likes It Rough 2
This Past week or two seems to of been a change over time in the fishing year with the last of the spring run of Codling moving off and Roker and some early bass showing.
Last weekend saw us mainly landing some Roker up to 8lb and a few large Whiting and some spring codling in the 3lb range.
Wednesday’s trip for Trevor’s group saw us fishing the first part of the day for the last of the spring codling. We managed 6 all around the 5- 7lb range, the afternoon was Roker time with 6 Roker landed all in the 5- 9lb Range.
This Weekend saw us land nearly 30 Roker over the two days with Aaron, from the boys at Bidwells property consultants, Landing the biggest of the weekend, nudging the scales to just under 13lb. A good number of the fish were in the 6- 9lb range with a couple of other double figure fish caught and returned. Well done to all you guys who put all the females back and only kept the Male fish.
A Small Bass of around 2 LB was also landed just to show us that the summer species are not that far away. View Boats Page
