Report on-board Mistress
The fishing remains steady here at Whitby as it has done all winter. Sorry this report is a bit late in còming for last weekend. We were busy all weekend from friday through to sunday.
View Boats Page
Each day averaged 50/60 codlings to keep with 20-30 chuckbacks too so the rods were nodding away steady all the time.
Best baits remain unwashed squid and black lug.
As long as the weather stays settled we will be starting to venture out to wrecks in the next week or so. I have a mini break booked in so charters will resume from Tuesday 27th Feb.
If youre interested in a trip with me on Mistress here at Whitby, give me a call or text on 07977 436903. Prices start at £5 per hour per person. Tackle and bait can be supplied at cost.

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Had a run off yesterday after a short break away. Wasn't sure what to expect as the weather hasn't really been that good for offshore work.
View Boats Page
Regular Shy-Torque angler Bill Barraclough from Barnsley joined us with a couple of others, Matt and John from Mersyside.
A run out to a couple of mid distance wrecks proved to be great for us all. The fish were flying aboard at one point and Bill managed a couple of "doublers" and even a treble!! He fished the bait all day and ended up with around 20 fish himself!
With the water as clear as gin and alive with sprats, this made the shad and sidewinder fishing terrific as well. I personally had nearly 30 Cod myself, all taken on the artificials. Great sport especially for the time of year.
The lads are pictured with some of their haul!
We have a few days coming up shortly with individuals booked on so if you fancy joining them check out the calendar and give me a ring.
The competition dates for anyone who doesn't have them yet are as follows :-
Spring comp :- April 7th - 22nd inc.
Summer :- June 23rd - July 15th Inc.
Late Summer :- Sept 15th - 30th inc.
There is still availability in all the competitions but the Summer one is starting to get a fair bit of interest as usual.
We only have 5 days left in the Summer comp where the boat is empty, so if you were wanting a club booking check out the calendar for those.
As always we are taking lots of individual bookings so there a good number of days where you can join others on the boat too.

Hi all,
View Boats Page
The boat has been out of the water this last 7 days.
She has just undergone her 1st out of water check over, antifouling and polish and all is good.
I'd like to thank my good mates Guy Wrightson, Rich Simpson, Craig Simmonds, Nigel Hall, John Wilford and my lovely partner Val Walker for all their help over the last weekend.
The calendar is fully up to date for you all. Bookings in the Summer competition are starting to go a bit quicker now so if you fancy a go in it drop me a line on here or any of the numbers.

Finally a nice day to get out with a flatish sea and not to cold.
Overal the 6 lads have manage to catch between 50 and 60 cod between them with plenty returned to fight anouther day.
Also while on the trip we saw a good amount of wildlife around like porpoises leaping most of thier body out the water while traviling around marine drive and a good amount of seals while fishing. -
