    What an absolutely fabulous day today here at Whitby on Mistress

    West Cliff School chartered the whole boat to run a number of trips for year 6.
    We ran 3, 3hour trips so we could get everyone to sea for the chance of a few fish.

    We found plenty of fish for the 1st time anglers totalling 50-60 codlings and around 20 mackerel everyone had an awesome time.

    Heres a big thank you to West Cliff for booking me again for the 3rd year running and giving me chance to put a smile on the kids faces.

    If anyone's interested in running a similar group trip with large numbers of anglers I can source extra boat if needed too.
    Give me a call on 07977 436903 or e-mail seafishingwhitby@hotmail.co.uk

    23 Jun 2018 by Rich Cope

    Report on-board Mistress

    Last Saturday marked the start of Whitby Charter Skippers Association grand summer festival.

    So far Mistress anglers have fared well with us taking the top spots in the 1st two days and joint 3rd on the third day.

    Tomorrow we have a day away from the festival running 3 trips for our local primary school, West Cliff.
    We also have a shark trip on friday, but other than those days we're eager to get our anglers among the fish and hopefully among the prizes!

    Hire tackle is available, with the addition of a few new rods, all kitted out with saltist reels and braid.

    If youre interested in booking with us, the trip is £50 with an entry fee of around £5 per person.
    Give me a call on 07977 436903

    Tight lines and good luck!

    Rich

  • 06/2018 Fishing Report by Rich Ward on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    Jun 2018 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Some very reasonable inshore fishing again this week working in the shallow water.

    Yesterday we were hard ashore again, working the ground off Port Mulgrave in 60 ft where the lads picked away steadily until the weather turned against us around 2pm.

    Fish were coming aboard on the bait and also fair and square on the shads too so the water is nice and clear again there at the moment. Sadly we are predicted a Northerly swell again which will colour the water on the inshore marks again for a few days.

    With the summer competition starting on Saturday we will be working the wrecks again looking for the £5000.00 winner !!

    Good luck to all those who are fishing with us in the competition again this year.

    After having a poor day on Saturday, decided to try further off today. some nice fish caught everybody had some fish to take home. Best fish of the day was a 17lb cod caught by Noel which was his personal best. Lets hope we can catch the same quality in the summer festival which we still have some midweek dates available.

  • 10/06/2018 Fishing Report by Carl Farrar on TROT- ON (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    10 Jun 2018 by Carl Farrar

    Report on-board TROT- ON

    Sunday saw Whitby's Premier charter boat Trot On visit a few offshore wrecks searching for clearer water due to the weeks winds which had clouded the water inshore a little. We were pestered by seals on several wrecks but still managed to bag a mixture of Cod, Pollack and Ling to around 6lb caught on a mixture of Shad, Bait and Hokki's
    Regular Trot On angler Chris Mangan had quite a fight with one seal who decided he wanted Chris's Cod for his dinner. Unfortunately the seal won. Although the score for the day ended with Chris 0 - Sammy the Seal 1
    All the anglers had plenty of other fish to take home.

    Chris won the W.C.S.A Summer festival last year aboard Trot On with a MASSIVE Ling of 33lb 4oz which netted Chris £5000 for the 1st place prize. The 2018 Summer festival starts on June 23rd till July 15th. Paul still had some spaces and dates available so to be in with your chance of winning this years £5000 prize give him a call on 07766995847 and join him on Whitby's Premier Charter boat TROT ON

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Pete Devonland from Warwickshire and his 6 mates joined us yesterday for their 1st trip of the year.

    A nice gentle offshore breeze welcomed us on the morning so we decided a run to a couple of offshore wrecks was in order to start the day.

    First stop didn't produce much at all to be honest with just a couple of codling and a dozen mackerel coming up.

    The second mark however proved to be a good move with fish coming aboard from the off. The lads took around 50 fish from it which pretty much saw us through to the end of the day as we had a good distance to run back home.

    The fish of the day was this beauty caught by Terry from London weighing in at 17 lb 14 oz. My lad Adam reminded me that the Summer competition starts next weekend and it would have been great to catch him then! We will be chasing his bigger brother then!!!!!!

    Great to see you all again lads and we look forward to sailing with you again.

    Terry is pictured inset.

    TUESDAY 4TH JULY. ROOM FOR 2 ANGLERS.

    14 Jun 2018 by Rich Cope

    Report on-board Mistress

    Its been around a week since our last update from Whitby.
    We've had a mixed week with ups and downs with weather. The better fishing is still inshore. We've seen a mixture of species including Ballan wrasse. Sea scorpions, tadpole fish, lesser spotted doggies plus the usual suspects.

    We've worked wrecks and reefs with baited hokkais and shads over the smaller tides and as theyve lifted weve hàd more northerly swell and the inshore has coloured up again so we got the anchor back out the last two days.

    Our best day was yesterday uptiding where between 6 of us we boated over 100 codlings best angler getting over 30 himself. The biggest was ounces short of 10lb.

    We've plenty of space midweek and also over the upcoming festival. The entry fee is usually around £5 per person on top of your charter fee.

    If your interested in a trip with me on Mistress whether youre experienced or a novice gìve me a call or text on 07977 436903
