The run of settled weather continues unabated, so I’ve managed another couple of days out at sea.
Thursday saw John Wilson and a group of mates book the boat for a day out. Being Uptiding virgins, we spent a a bit of time going through the rudimentary’s of feeling down the lead, baiting up the traces and paying off an arc of line. With everyone cast out it wasn’t long before the rods started twitching and most of the boys “popped their Uptiding cherries” with either a Haddock or Codling.
We had a couple of moves during the morning to try and get some lee from the brisk offshore wind, then ran further north to meet the flood tide. As the day progressed it was noticeable how the boys improved. Baits looked tidier, casting wasn’t an issue; it was good to see.
The day was as much about having a laugh as it was the fishing. Everyone was fantastic company and the highlight of the day was a new species boated aboard Sea Urchin when one of the boys brought up a Tadpole Fish! Thanks for a brilliant day lads.
Today we had a Biggest Bag Competition, where every fish was measured and allocated points. Biggest points tally won the £100 prize and second got £50. We went south today and after a half hour run we dropped the anchor in a sheltered area. Straight from the off we picked up mainly Codling and the boys kept me busy with the net and measure. The sport wasn’t bad at all. Ian Kellock had a 57cm Codling which was the biggest of the day to get him going. Gordon Blyth got three nice 50cm plus fish and Ben Cope caught consistently gaining himself what turned out to be an unassailable lead.
Just as things were looking good, the wind lifted and at times over the next two hours it was unfishable with well over 30mph blasts coming through. Sport dried up and it wasn’t until we ran back north to meet the flood tide that we caught a few more to finish.
There were loads of laughs and lots of conversation, which made the day fly by. Ben Cope won the £100 and second place went once again to Gordon Blyth (4th time in a row!) Altogether we landed 52 Codling, 3 Pouting, 3 Dogfish and a lone Lobster.
Thanks for an excellent day lads.

I was really looking forward to today’s trip, as it was one of the days where I get to fish. Winter Uptiding is one of my favourite things to do, as I know that if I work hard with good bait, there’s every chance of catching some beautiful clean Codling.
We ran South again today, pushing the 5.3m tide a few miles towards Robin Hoods Bay. With only five of us fishing, we all went with two rods each, which gives a bit more scope to experiment with baits.
I only usually take three different baits for Uptiding and today was no different. Dirty Squid, Frozen Black Lugworm and Crab Cart. First stop and before I’d even had chance to cast in, I spotted some rod tips tapping. In next to no time Dave Sharp had a healthy curve in his rod and we slipped the net under a plump Codling of 7lb, which set the benchmark of 65cm for the longest Cod sweepstake.
The breeze lifted mid morning making us swing on the anchor a bit and as we lost tide on the run into slack water, the bites really slowed up, so most of us stopped fishing and had a cup of tea and a sandwich…..very civilised!!
I moved us close in to catch the very first sniff of the Flood Tide and no sooner than it came through, we were back in action for the remainder of the day. With the exception of a 30 minute period where a pack of Doggies moved in, we caught Codling all day. The average stamp wasn’t too bad either, with the majority of them being 3-4lb and only a handful of chuckbacks.
Interestingly, there appeared to be little appetite for the Squid and Lug combo today. Crab Cart was what they really wanted and that’s what I ended up fishing on both rods during the afternoon.
With the sweepstake still up for grabs, I connected with a better sized fish after dinner and after a spirited fight netted something of similar size to Dave’s fish from earlier. It was going to be close, so first we weighed it at 6lb 8oz, but it was long and lean and on the measure went 69cm which was the “longest” Cod of the day, even though Dave’s was heavier.
Loads and loads of banter and mickey taking today, and a fantastic day out fishing for me with some great mates. Cheers boys, thanks for making an awesome day. View Boats Page

It’s been awesome to get the last three days out at sea, at what can be a “dodgy” time weather wise. With building tides of 5m plus, I was hopeful that after the last stir up, we’d have some decent results.
On Saturday, we ran North to try and use the last of the Ebb Tide. Unfortunately the NNW wind didn’t let the boat settle properly so we swung around and caught very little for the first hour. Moving further North to catch the flood tide Simon England started to pick off a fish or two on Crab Cart, Squid, or Black Lug. He’s a vastly experienced angler and had plenty of good bait at his disposal, no surprise he was top rod for the day.
Simon West is a good angler (who I watch to make my tactical decisions) but hadn’t had much success at all during the morning, but on the Flood tide his Black Lug which he pumps himself started to yield results along with Squid and Crab Cart. Overall, the fish didn’t feed well and from what I saw, it was the anglers with the best bait, changed regularly, fished properly, that came out on top.
Sunday saw a similar day. It was hard going again, but Jason Shields still managed to find a few fish. Once again, he is experienced at Uptiding and brought plenty of good bait…..a pattern emerges!!
Today I made sure to let everyone know that having a good quantity and quality of bait would help secure success. Everyone took it on board and we had a much better day. The Ebb wasn’t brilliant, but the boys still managed a few Codling to 4lb or so. The turn of tide brought more consistency and Ian Purdom and Joe Clough maximised it by taking fish regularly, ending with a dozen or so fish each; with a couple over 4lb, but nothing huge. Everyone has been fantastic company and it was good to see a few old friends I’ve cancelled countless times last year.
The message is quite clear….bring plenty of bait (I’ll happily advise), changed it regularly and don’t defrost it in Harbour Water and wash out all the scent. The scent trail is critical to success when Uptiding. View Boats Page

Sat 28th, the last days fishing of the year for us on the Mistress.the tides weren't fantastic but it was the only gap in the weather i could see for while, the winds blown strong ever since.
I really fancied getting out as I've been couped with a bad knee since before Christmas, a couple of my regulars managed to jump aboard with me for the day at late notice.
Tbh we had a fairly slow start to the day with only bits and bobs coming aboard from various marks. I made a move for the last few hours and the rods never stopped nodding,
We ended the day with us all boating 10+ codlings each but only kept the better ones. I was absolutely plagued by pouting too which got me a ribbing from the rest of the lads.
Martin managed a baby bullhuss which was a nice surprise too.
Usual baits of black lug, dirty squid and cart too the fish.
Well guys that concludes 2024, thank you all again for your continued support, I look forward to seeing you in 2025!

It was great to work off a bit of excess Turkey and Christmas Pud today with an offshore wrecking trip, with a great bunch of lads.
With the weather conditions looking settled, we chose to run off to try a couple of wrecks around the 20 mile stream. At this time of year, the inshore wrecks seem to yield very little, so it’s sometimes beneficial to run out a bit further where the water is perhaps a bit clearer. Using the Ebb Tide, we headed north for a couple of hours to fish a wreck which had been left alone for a couple of months, arriving with an hour or so to go before slack water. The lads went over with mainly Squid baited muppet traces or Hokkai’s and 12oz leads.
First drift over we managed three Codling, so thankfully there were a few at home. The lads fished steady away taking fish every drift right up through slack water and into the flood tide. Codling were the main species landed with a couple of fish around 7lb being the biggest, but not a bad average stamp overall. We also had a trio of Ling, a stray Pollock and a handful of Haddock, Whiting and Pouting.
Once the Flood tide got going and a seal arrived, sport slowed up, so we moved on to the next wreck. Disappointingly, this wreck didn’t have the same volume of feeding fish on it, with just one or two fish a drift of a much smaller stamp. With an hours fishing time left, I made the decision to try one more wreck on the way back to Whitby. This wreck was situated much closer to land at around nine miles, so I was unsure what we would find. As it turned out, we found practically nothing and would have been better off not moving. One Codling around 4lb and a couple of Pouting made it a bit of a damp squib to finish the day, but the boys aboard made it a very enjoyable one.
Mike Griffiths had booked on with three of his mates and my highlight of the day was seeing all four of them into fish at the same time. They fished well today and all had a fair few to take home. A couple of the other boys didn’t fare quite so well, but that’s fishing for you.
Thanks for coming today lads, you were all fantastic company. View Boats Page

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
A fantastic sunrise welcomed us back to sea yesterday morning with our group of 6 lads, after yet another long spell away from the water.
We were meant to start our Shy-Torque III Xmas Uptiding Competition last Sunday but sadly the weather has been against us until yesterday.
We sailed just after 7.30am and headed out to our usual inshore marks, where on the last few trips, fished well.
Yesterday morning was totally different!
We persevered for a couple of hours on the first mark until the tide started slowing up, for a paltry 10 fish or so.
A move of just a couple of miles over slack water to a different sector and the signs were immediately better.
4 or 5 Codlings boated as soon as we’d anchored which gave us hope for when the flood tide pushed through.
As the flood pushed through, the Codling started biting a bit better for an hour or so until we were hampered by 4 seals. After they disappeared the fishing didn’t recover really, by which time it was about time to return home.
Tally for the trip was around 30 fish to keep, with a number of smaller fish, Dogfish, Pouting, Codling, returned safely
Because yesterday looked like the only day we are going to get in our little 8 day pre Xmas competition, I decided that it would be unfair to all our other anglers booked on, to count any possible contenders for the prize money we’re offering and instead have decided to try and run another contest in the New Year on some good inshore tides.
Dates of that to be decided.
Best Codling fell to young Fergus (crewman) and Neil Dowson, both lads from Egton just outside Whitby. Fish to just over 5lb.
At this point I would like to wish everyone who have fished with us over the year, a very merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
We look forward to seeing you all again next year.
Tides and diary are ready for you to make any bookings in 2025.
Cheers

What a lovely day out we had today.......nice calm flat sea conditions, light winds, good tide and fantastic company. Considering the weather we had with "Storm Darragh" over the last weekend, I couldn't have asked for much better for the "Sea Urchin - Biggest Bag Competition" which we held today. The eight anglers aboard were fishing for the most fish that they could catch. Every fish was measured and then allocated a certain number of points according to species and how long it was. I kept a running tally all day and the two anglers with the highest points total at the end of the day would win the £100 and £50 cash prizes which I happily donate.
We got away just as day was breaking, running North to Sandsend to get as much of the remaining Ebb Tide in as possible. No sooner than I got the anchor down, the fish started to appear. Rods were consistently nodding around the boat and a succession of mainly Codling came up for the next couple of hours. Gordon Blyth had a brilliant. start, catching steadily and also taking the best Codling at just over 5lb. The sport lasted right up to slack water, when we pulled the anchor and ran further North to meet the Flood Tide.
Unfortunately, this move didn't work out well. The tide was running when we arrived, but after 20 minutes with very few bites and no fish aboard, I sacked it off and ran back South. Next stop, we were back in business. We had a reasonable couple of hours, with everyone getting a few fish. Amongst the Codling, Ian Kellock and Rich Winship both managed to find a nice Pollock apiece which was good to see.
We had one last move, to drop onto a nice shelf which I'd fished the previous day.
Thankfully, it didn't fish too badly and kept us entertained for the remainder of the day. Mark Botterill had been catching steadily throughout, but he had a golden hour and gradually clawed back the points deficit that Gordon had established; including catching the biggest Codling of the day at 66cm which weighed in at a smidge over 7lb. I am forever "banging on" about how important good bait is for Uptiding. The fish can see very little in the murky water and come primarily to the scent trail from the baits cast in. Today's top three point scoring anglers were all from Easington Sea Angling Club and all fish from the shore and boats throughout the year. They all had a good supply of fresh and frozen bait, which they changed every cast. Squid, Crab Cart, Peeler Crab, Live Yellow Tails, Mussel, Prawns, Black Lug. I'm 100% convinced that it made the difference.
With an hour to go, Gordon had a 100 point lead, but Mark managed to find a couple more fish and with only 30 minutes to go, took the lead! It could have gone either way, but Mark held on for the win with 1717 points and Gordon finishing just behind (bridesmaid again after finishing runner up last year) with 1641 points.
I'm not normally a "fish counter", but as we measured each fish, I do have some accurate stats today!
72 Cod up to 66cm (7lb 4oz)
12 Haddock (None Weighed)
2 Pollock both 60cm
8 Pouting none weighed
1 Whiting not weighed
5 Lobsters all safely returned
It was a thoroughly enjoyable day for me, which absolutely flew by. Thanks very much to all the lads who were fantastic company. View Boats Page

We've another very enjoyable day at sea again today, again a mixture of regulars were onboard the banter was absolutely top notch!
We took fish in most places with a couple of crackers going over 6lb. Again plenty of chuck back codlings, haddock, pouting and a single pollock.
The best angler took 9 or 10 codlings with the rest of the taking a picking in between.
The fish were all caught on a mixture of black lug, fresh lug, squid, crab cart and mussel.
We've a few dates available through the rest of December into new year if you fancy jumping aboard for day. We only need a minimum of 4 to sail and never take any more than 8.

Fishing Report by Rich Cope
on Mistress (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
12 Dec 2024 by Rich Cope
Report on-board Mistress
It's been a great day today with a few of my regular regulars!
We caught fish pretty much everywhere we went today,
Loads of codlings, pouting, haddock, whiting, a solitary doggo and a lobster (returned).
We had loads of throwbacks and would have thrown back more if it wasn't for them being gutted hooked. (We don't keep anything under 40cm)
The lads kept between 20 & 30 codlings with the best angler taking 14. All caught on a mixture of black lug, squid and cart.
At one mark we struggled keeping up with the bites, it went crazy.
The company and laughs were great as everyone knew each other. Back to sea again tomorrow on another good forecast.
If you fancy a trip with me uptidng we have a few dates available between now and new year. Please drop me a message on WhatsApp or give me a call on 07977 436903.
