However, the winning fish, which is also a new PB for Marek Pracowity from Leicester and also "WINS" the Spring competition and is a cracker. Duly noted and recorded and just goes to show that whether you're a newcomer or a seasoned angler ,it really depends on who you sail with!

We will always try our hearts out to try and find you guys the big prizes on offer here at Whitby.
Over the last 30 plus years working as a charter skipper here at Whitby, we have won more competitions than any other boat here and to notch another win on the board is great!!
The Summer competition will here before we know it. We still have a few days left with room. Have a look at the availability calendar and get your places booked. £5000.00 in cash is on offer again this year and it could be yours!!

Report on-board Skylark
Best 6 hour fishing trip we have had all year so far, nothing huge caught but plenty of cod about still.
We only had 3 customers today so I managed to have a fish aswell today.
We decided to fish inshore again and we had fish on from the first drop with all four of us bringing fish after fish in every drop. After a few minutes we decided to return all lip hooked fish regardless of size or any other fish that would survive as the fishing was that frantic.
In total we lost count at about a hundred between the four of us with all of us catching 25+ each.
The fish seamed to be going for anything we dropped down including squid mackerel, shads. Feathers etc.we even managed to get plenty of codlings on the very light gear (5g to 35g rods with 8lb braid, great fun on light gear).
Great to see so many cod and Codlings about.
During the last two hours we started getting board of catching just cod so we ventured out to 6 mile and gave the wrecks a try, we had a few nibbles but unfortunately no fish out there as yet, hopefully in a few weeks this will change.
The photo of the fish on the engine box were all the fish which were deeply hooked which unfortunatly wouldn't have had much change of survival.
Great day out with great company with Dave, Steve and Mel. View Boats Page

Another great day out today fishing on a 6 hour trip inshore.
The angler had a good mix of fish today landing several Pollock around 4 to 8lb and a good amount of Cod around 2 to 4lb as well as a good size dogfish and a few small Coalfish.
It was great to see alot of good size fish been returned to fight another day.
Most of the fish fell for bait but we did manage to catch a few on jellys and shads, so hopefully the water becomes clearer inshore in the next few weeks and we could have some fantastic fishing this summer.

21/4/15 - Absolutely fabulous weather here today at whitby We had a slow start inshore, so upped sticks got he hammers down and we were offshore shadding with in the hour!
We arrived on slack water but managed a few pollock on a ledge we fish regularly, as the tide got away we moved a liitle further offshore to a bit of ground I havent visited for a year or two, so was delighted when we started banging out codlings each drift, these were all 2lb stock so suggested we try somewhere else.
We had a move to a ridge with lots of lumps and bumps on it, each drift saw a good number of fish come aboard,it stayed like this all day pretty much, moving, picking up a few fish and moving and picking.
The 6 of us managed to rake up around 80 codling today on a mixture of shads and bait, the lads returned plenty of fish too.
I really wish I'd got more photos on this cracking day.
We managed joint 1st and 3rd today in the WCSA angling festival daily results

Report on-board Skylark
A good 8 hour Fishing Trip yesterday
we decided to start at the mark which worked well for us on Thursday and again it produced a good number of codlings for us.
We had a lot of first time anglers with us yesterday but they quickly picked it up and all seamed to have a good trip with the anglers managing to get a couple of fish each.
The conditions were not perfect with a slight swell to start with which increased in the last hour of the trip.
It was good to see many size fish returned as the anglers had caught enough for them selves.
Unfortunately we had to cancel the 3 hour trip we had planned as the sea conditions deteriorated and we couldn't seek any shelter.
hopefully the weather improves in the next few days as the fishing has been really good resonantly.

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
This last weeks fishing aboard the Shy-Torque has been absolutely incredible to say the least.
The early part of the week on the neap tides fishing the best with a number of our lads leaving the boat with up to 30 cod each. Cod in to double figures making a very nice appearance too.
The heavier tides are with us at present and with a mix of Northerley winds, not a very good mixture, however, yesterdays lads did manage to scrape a few codling together for the table.
The competition still runs until next weekend and we a couple of spaces left for next Thursday if you're interested in having a crack at the £1000.00 1st prize.
Pictured is Johnny Hanson from Hornsea with a lovely double figure cod.
Cheers

Report on-board Mistress
17/4/15 - Another top days wrecking today here at Wwhitby , I returned to where I'd finished off yesterday, I knew I'd left fish behind so returned for a second installment!
The fishing started much the same as it did yesterday morning, From the first drop, every rod bent into fish, again the quickest lads getting down for a 2nd fish on each drift.
It didn't seem to matter what colour or pattern of shad was offered, the cod were smashing them as soon as they hit bottom, we fished here all morning until the tide eased and the fish went off.
A quick move to wreck nearby for slack water saw us take a steady picking of fish to bait, including a couple of bonus Pollock to lures. Eventually the tide started pushing and we moved a little closer to home working a few ground marks.
The lads were getting a double hook ups of Codlings as we drifted with the start of the new tide, unfortunately as the tide started running full bore, the fishing tailed off and we set of for home, most of the lads manged on average around 20 fish apiece some more, some less, but there were lots of in size fish returned again by the lads.
