With a break between the winds, we got to sea on Saturday with Colin and the lads from Gratham,
View Boats Page
It didnt take long for us to start nailing a few fish. the lads fished steady all through the day, even with such a small tide the fish continued to feed all day even through slack water.
The best bait by far was squid and black lug worm.
Between them they amassed a good catch of between 40 and 50 codlings to keep, plus a good few chuck-back codlings under 40cm. there were a good few in the 3lb to 5lb range. biggest would have been around 6lb.

We still have a few places on the Uptiding Festival starting next month, if you're interested in getting among the Winter Cod give me a call on 07977 436 903

Well what a day the lads had i would say the best days uptiding this winter upto press the lads ended up with a total of 89 codlings onboard but it was the quality the sheer amount of fish between 3-6 lb a cracking day plus the weather you can only say was superb flat clam blue skys little or no wind a sheer pleasure .
View Boats Page
There was one or two first timers at the uptiding and what an eye opener young jack and john vero were onboard and what a day they had and as usually young jack didnt take long to get into the action that young man is just natural fish catcher plus the local neil windows never tryed uptiding before neil ended up with 16 codlings upto 6lb plus so he well and truelly hooked .
It was first time this winter i have ventured well south of whitby to one of special little hot spots i know i knew what was coming when we ankhored up some bonny codling were onboard within minuites and it was worm and squid what was doing the damage cart didnt fish well today but that was a one off another week or two they will be going mental on it.
