  • 10/09/2012 Fishing Report by Rich Cope on Mistress (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    Report on-board Mistress

    The last week has been a bit up and down to say the least, referring more to weather than anything else. On the days we have got to see we have been getting amoungst the fish again, last monday started great with some exellent cod fishing to shads, but as the tides eased we gave a bit more focus to wrecking and boated some respectable fish, with Cod and Ling into high teens in weight. The weather looks to have beaten us again for few days, so has given me a bit of time to get some reports and photos onto the interent!

  • 03/09/2012 Fishing Report by Rich Ward on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    3 Sep 2012 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Oh, how I love it when the lads decide to have a sweep aboard the boat. It always seems to generate a little bit more excitement than normal. That extra effort seems to be given from each and every angler and today was no exception! With each man putting a "fiver" in the pot there was a very nice £45.00 on offer today.
    The lads today were from as far afield as Leicester and Bulgaria!!

    The day started really slow with the first 3 marks producing just 3 or 4 fish. After another hour or so trying more marks inside with little else coming aboard, we decided to push off to a wreck 18 miles off shore.

    Good move! We arrived at the wreck at around 11a.m and by 2p.m we had just about exhausted it after taking around 50 fish off it. The best fish of the day falling to my rod, and whey hey, the lads had invited me into the sweep too. Most unusual!! Nearly all the fish had fallen to the blue "Sidewinder" shads indicating the water was a lot clearer offshore than inshore.

    Thanks for a great days entertainment lads and hope to see you all again real soon.

    Pictured is skipper Rich with the sweep winning fish of 14lbs.

    1 Sep 2012 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Some cracking weather here this last few days has lead to some cracking fishing for the boys aboard the Shy-Torque.

    Two groups from Manchester and Richmond joined us on Saturday and were rewarded with some lovely cod to around 10lb. Fish were taking the shad more than anything. The blue Sidewinders being the best attractant.

    For all your top quality angling gear, from Rods and reels to terminal tackle please use "Whitby Angling Supplies" next to "Mr Chips" fish and chip shop.

  • 28/08/2012 Fishing Report by Rich Cope on Mistress (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    28 Aug 2012 by Rich Cope

    Report on-board Mistress

    The last week has produced some good catches again on Mistress. The weather has been a hinderance at times, keeping us ashore. The days we have been to sea have been steady, with quite a few Personal bests beeing beaten.

    We had to fish close inshore one day due to the fresh SW winds but we still found some nice pollock for the lads on jelly worms in around 15ft of water.

    Wrecking is still producing lots of Ling to Mackerel baits and the odd better Cod also falling to Bait.

    Shads have been producing well, I will keep you updated on how they fish after this current northerly!

    The Autumn festival starts on the 8th September, £1000 first prize for the biggest fish, there are still a few places left, get yourselves booked on!

  • 24/08/2012 Fishing Report by mike beadle on Skylark (Scarborough, North Yorkshire)

    24 Aug 2012 by mike beadle

    Report on-board Skylark

    Went fishing on the 24-08-12 was their nice and early, the sea was like a mill pond, never been so excited to fish the wrecks that ive herd to be famous for ling! We was booked for a 10 hour trip which is a long day for the not so hardcore angler. When we got their we found out that their was just the 3 of us on the boat! which was amazing! The skipper must be bonkers or brilliant one of the two to take 3 out for ten hours! I wasn't complaining!. My day started of not so good after donating about 5 perks to the wrecks in 5 drifts, but as they say you have to hook the wreck to know your in the right place! Then after the first couple i managed to bring up my first fish, a nice cod about 3lb. As the day went on the more fish we caught my biggest cod of 5lb and ling of about 8lb, at one point as quick as you was putting bait on you was taking fish off! All in all a fantastic skipper, fantastic boat and fantastic fishing. Will definitely be going again to loose some more gear in the wrecks and hopefully pull the same amount of fish out!
