Its been just over a week since our last update and the autumn festival is in full swing here at Whitby.
I've been working my socks off as always trying to get the Mistress anglers among fish. Leading up to the festival, a few nice fish started poking their heads out giving me high hopes for the event.
During the big tides we were fishing the ground and luckily there seemed to be a good number a double figure fish lurking on the hard ridges, as the tides lift again I can see us returning to the ground, we had an 18lber off the ground prior to the festival so there's always every chance of a winner cruising around.
As the tides eased we started fishing the wrecks, we have had a pretty good week aboard Mistress, with many double figure fish boated and many daily prizes to our anglers.
We're currently leading the event with a a cracking Ling of 23lb 2 1/2oz, but had another 18lber earlier in the week as well as fish just short of 16lb and absolutely loads of 11-12lb fish.
There still a week to run and there's every chance of catching a bigger one. we have a few remaining places this week on Friday.
I'm offering a short morning trip on the 29th of this month, running 7am-12 noon. it'll be £25 per person.

Best cod was 11lb
Still not many Cod caught today but plenty of ling and few pollock were caught as well as mackerel, whiting and a few gurnards. -

Time for an update, as always I've been keeping busy with my camera this last week or so, we've been through a set of neap tides and now starting back up into a set of springs. I'm glad of a day off this week for some family time and a bit of a catch up on here.
We've managed some quality fish again with two pushing 18-20lb this last 12 days. one was on a massive 5.8m tide! and the other on a 5.2m, so its goes to show with clear water and a bit of luck its still possible to catch the big ones! so that 3 over 18lb in the last 3 weeks.
Its the time of year where we see more Ling than Cod and its this time of year many people beat their PB's, with us bait fishing a lot we do catch mainly Ling but with some better quality Cod too.
The Autumn festival starts next Weekend for 2 weeks. with £1000 for the biggest fish over the event. We still have dates available on some better tides so give me call if you fancy a chance on the £1000!
The Uptide competition dates have been confirmed as 5th November - 20th November, the dates are starting to fill on that already so, get your bookings in early to get the best tides.
