Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Some great fishing this last few trips for all the teams who joined us on the Shy-Torque III.
The weather has been unreal with glassy calm and clear waters making the fishing relatively easy for all concerned. Perfect drift fishing, plumb vertical lines and some cracking fish.
The top angler this week was Paul Cookson from Bolton in Lancashire. He had some 20 fish himself yesterday with a mixture of cod and ling. His lad Lee boating the best fish on board with a ling just shy of a stone in weight (14lb)
We have also done a couple of sharking trips this last week with shark on on both trips. Sadly all the shark we had on the line managed the escape. So very annoying, but at least we know that there are a good number out there for us this year to keep trying for. If you fancy a go for the big boys give me ring.
Bob Ellis from Focus Training Ltd who sponsors some of the Charter Skippers competitions here at Whitby joined us on Monday this week for his first ever sharking mission. He had 2 shark on during the morning. One of them leading him a merry dance around the boat for over half an hour before spitting the hook. Bob said it was an unbelievable feeling but also extreemley tiring!!
We always manage to do some bottom fishing whilst we are on the sharking trips and Bob's best fish was a lovely cod of 11 lbs He, his son Sam and friend Richard managed a good show of both cod and ling on the
trip.
Bob is pictured inset.
If you fancy a go in this years Summer competition which starts soon on the 1st July, we do still have some
places left.
Give me a call on my direct number 07733 233352 or home 01947 603472 or mail me on richardward384@yahoo,co.uk. There are some great cash prizes again this year with the top prize being a massive £5000.00 in cash!!! Fishing is a lottery so come and have a go!!!
Tight lines as ever,

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Yesterdays 8 hour trip went very well indeed with the lads getting amongst the bigger cod at last.
One of my favourite wrecks 16 miles East of Whitby fished quite well producing cod to 13lbs.
Nearly all the fish on board were taken on the shad, indicating now that the water is properly cleared out at last.
Chris Beaton who is originally from Cloughton in Scarborough but now lives in Australia is pictured with the best of the day at 13lbs.
Some room left next week on Wednesday and Thursday lads, so if you fancy a trip my number direct is 07733 233352. I will sail with just 3 anglers minimum. The forecast is looking very good indeed !!!

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
This last weekend saw some very breezy conditions here at Whitby. We managed half a day with a team from Middlesborough on Saturday with nothing to report really. Sunday was cancelled for all with strong winds.
The lads on last Fridays trip however benefited from some lovely weather and we were able to get them amongst the fish really well.
Chris Parkins from Leeds and 4 of his mates joined us for the day. We started on the ground on the inside marks for half a dozen fish to 3 or 4 lbs. After half an hour scratting around we decided to push off shore to a couple of wrecks I have which I knew hadn't been touched for a good week or so. The first wreck produced around 15 fish to 7lb and the second producing much better with around 40 fish with cod to just short of 10lb.
The lads were made up with the day for being fortunate enough to drop on great weather and great fishing.
Most of the fish were taken on the shad and jelly's.
Chris and the lads are pictured with some of their catch.
Take a look in the gallery for some great pictures.

Paul Hoyle and 5 of his mates joined us on Thursday. Conditions weren't perfect but were fishable.
After a few hours the dreaded Mal de mere hit home with 3 of the crew falling ill.
This just left Paul, Ricky and Dave fishing and they managed to rake around 25 fish between them. The best fish falling to Ricky with a lovely golden cod of 9lb 3oz.
Not hectic fishing by any standards but the lads enjoyed the day and took plenty of fillets home for the table.
Ricky is pictured with his best fish.

Report on-board TROT- ON
Friday saw us out with a crew of 7 anglers, The first stop was on the ground at the 5 mile mark. This produced Coddling , Strap Ling and Whiting falling mainly to squid bait.
We then moved onto a wreck and started to pick up a better stamp of Coddlings as well as bigger Ling averaging around 5 -6 lb along with the pesky Pouting who as usual were pecking at the bait.
Baited Hookki's started to pick a few Mackeral up which were of a good pan size, Trot On regulars "Big Andy" Pendleberry and previous W.C.S.A festival winner Dave Makings were getting best results with bait and had approx 20 fish between them, However it was another angler who took the boat sweep with a nice plump Cod of around 8lb. caught on a shad. With the W.C.S.A. 2017 Summer festival starting July 1 -23 Trot On still has some places available so to in with your chance of winning the £5000 1st place prize give Paul Eddon a call on 07766995847 and book your place on Whitby's premier charter boat TROT ON View Boats Page
