  • 07/2014 Fishing Report by Rich Cope on Mistress (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    Jul 2014 by Rich Cope

    Report on-board Mistress

    Fishing the last week has been up and down, we have seen some cracking fish boated, towards the end of the festival Keith Bywater from Rotherham hooked something very good, and the way it was stripping line and lunging I had an incling it was a Halibut from the start, we set the drag fairly light as keith fought with is fish.

    I was hoping for a big one, but not this time sadly, i went 15lb on the boat scales, not a monster but equally a fish of a lifetime as not many are caught. well done Keith!

    The spring tides we have just experienced (biggest of the year) have given mixed results with us having to work hard for our fish, some days better than others, the better anglers still leaving with decent bags. never the less still finding a few for the rest of the lads. It should improve as the tides ease again

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Seasoned campaigner and regular angler aboard the Shy-Torque, John Wilcock, has had a few belting days fishing with us in this years Summer competition.
    John, who has won this competition more than any other angler and has taken over £12,000 from the events over the years was chasing the big one again yesterday!!
    Working a wreck just over 30 miles off, John hooked in to what we thought was the winner at 9.30am.
    When we weighed the fish at the scales at the end of the day we found that he had missed the top spot by a mere 1lb !!!!
    Johns fish was quite possibly heavier than the current leader when we first boated it but after 7 hours and 30 mins out of the water they do lose a fair bit of weight. That's the way it goes!!
    John is pictured with his ling of 20lb 5oz which is currently 2nd overall in the competition and won him a 1st daily prize.

    The competition here is nearly over again for another year and the big ones have been falling a few of the lads fishing on the Shy-Torque.

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Only 4 days left now in this years Summer angling competition here at Whitby and with the weather rearing it's ugly Northerley head at us yet again it's looking like it's going to be down to the weekend trips to try and find that winning fish.
    The lads on the Shy-Torque have however experienced some tremendous fishing both on the ground and on the wrecks over the last couple of weeks or so during the event.
    Paul Siddle from Patrington nr Hull was the first on the boat to make a serious impression on the leader board with his lovely cod of 19lb 1oz which was also a PB for him. A 1st daily prize winner in the competition and currently holding 4th place overall.
    Well done Paul!!
