  • 16/07/2013 Fishing Report by Rich Ward on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    The weather continues to be extra kind to us here at Whitby ( a bit like the summer of 76!!! )

    I can honestly say that I can't remember as many flat calm days here for a number of years. Bonus!!

    The Summer competition has come and gone yet again with the Association boats only losing 1 day out of the 23 scheduled, so a massive success. A big thankyou to all who sailed with us on the Shy-Torque III again this year.

    No festival winners this time but a good number of daily prize winners again and all anglers leaving with smiles on their faces and some good bags of fish over the 3 weeks.

    The next competition here at Whitby is in September. The dates are 14th Sept - 29th inc.

    We still have room on the following dates :
    Mon 16th Sept ( room for 5 )
    Thurs 19th Sept ( room for 7 )
    Fri 20th ( room for 3 )
    Mon 23rd ( Empty )

    The September competition here at Whitby usually give us a big fish and over the years we have had a good number of winners aboard the boat so drop me a line, either phone or computer, and come aboard and try and win yourselves a very nice £1000.00 in cash!!

    Pictured is Ken Buckingham with his festival winning cod, a shade over 45lbs!!

    Cheers

  • 06/07/2013 Fishing Report by Graham Bowers on Yorkshire Lass II (Bridlington, East Riding of Yorkshire)

    6 Jul 2013 by Graham Bowers

    Report on-board Yorkshire Lass II

    Paul Chapman's boat "Yorkshire Lass II" was fully booked for a short session for first time anglers plus a few experienced anglers.

    For Paul and his mate nothing was too much trouble. Four lads used the boat fishing gear and after a couple of lessons from Paul and his mate they weren't disappointed.

    Paul placed us on top of fish right from the beginning and beginners caught fish straight-away - it was a brilliant day this coupled with brilliant weather meant a great day.

    The boat allowed all anglers bags of room meaning very few tangles. We had caught several species and everyone on the boat caught fish and all went home very happy and eager to try boat fishing again. We highly recommend Paul his mate and boat to anyone as a great boat fishing day out.
    Many thanks Paul see you again soon.

    11 Jul 2013 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    The last 3 days of this years Summer angling festival start tomorrow. With good weather forecast for all 3 days we are hoping to have a crack at the leading fish. The lads on board tomorrow are all seasoned anglers and are well up for it.

    Today was a no go for us as I had to attend my Aunts funeral but we will be back at it again tomorrow and will probably be heading out over the horizon again, back to where we've had a couple of monsters on in the last couple of trips.

    Hopefully we will have more luck and actually manage to boat one of them this time!!
    Good luck to one and all who are entering this years comp.

    Rich.
