    Photos from this evenings 3 hour trip

    We had a small break in the winds when we headed out so decided to give the inshore wrecks a quick go as we approched the first wreck we were greated by a flock of birds and a feeding minki whale which moved on as we approched.

    All the anglers managed to catch, with a few managing to get a better fish.

    Heaviest caught was a 13lb Ling with several been around 5 to 7lb.

    After the trip a local pleasure boat brokedown so we assisted it back to the harbour.

  • 11/07/2017 Fishing Report by Carl Farrar on TROT- ON (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    Report on-board TROT- ON

    Another good day on the cod for Trot On anglers, First stop was for Mackerel which were not playing the game today and were very elusive so a move onto the first wreck found all the rods into coddling falling to squid baits as the water inside is still clearing out so shads were working very well. as the tide turned on the ebb the fishing died and Paul was off to the next wreck. This did produce a steady picking of Coddlings, Ling, Pouting and Whiting. We then started dropping lots of gear as the tide started racing so a move to the ground was Paul's choice which threw out some nice coddling for Trot On regular Imran. We also had Trot On regulars Riswan and the Manchester Posse aboard who had some cracking coddling and a couple of nice Ling around the 7-8lb mark As the tide started to ease Paul decided to move onto one of his favorite wrecks and what a move that was for Derby angler Yuris who landed a lovely cod of 10lb 4oz to take the days best fish honour's
