    Report on-board TROT- ON

    Retired Ex Skipper Mick Leonard decided to fish aboard Whitby's top charter boat Trot On on Friday and took 1st place in the 2015 W.C.S.A summer festival aboard TROT ON with a cracking ling of 24lb 2 oz. The fish fell to a simple 1 hook rig baited with a full squid. The cod fishing is top drawer at the moment with loads of coddling about and also some good ling to be caught.

  • 09/07/2015 Fishing Report by Rich Ward on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    9 Jul 2015 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Some cracking days and some not so cracking days of late!!

    The not so cracking days fortunately have been few and far between as the fishing on the Shy-Torque continues to be generally very good.

    The Summer competition comes to a close this coming weekend so the boys who are booked will be going at it big time to try and crack the current leading fish.

    The best day for us this last week or so was last Friday where the lads took well in excess of 130 fish between themselves. The day started out superbly with our first stop of the day lasting all morning. Cod to just over 8lb were recorded and ling to just over the 9lb mark. Not big enough to contend for the lead in the comp but some great sport never the less.

    David Noakes was among the split team and he managed a very credible 25 fish himself at the end of the day. Doesn't really get a lot better to be fair!!

    David is pictured with his mornings catch. Another dozen or so fell to his rod in the afternoon too!!

  • 30/06/2015 Fishing Report by Nick Gough on Skylark (Scarborough, North Yorkshire)

    30 Jun 2015 by Nick Gough

    Report on-board Skylark

    June has been a fantastic month for us with many good size Cod about.

    The heaviest cod this month was caught by Henry weighing 11 1/2 Lb. and the second heaviest was caught by Damien weighing 10lb 2oz. both fish were taken offshore on the wrecks.

    this month we have also seen a few more mackerel showing but not in great numbers and still quite thin. We have also had several horse mackerel (Scads) aboard.

    on the wrecks we have had several ling caught but they have only been relatively small around the 5-8lb area. hopefully next month we see a few bigger fish turn up.

    both the inshore fishing and the offshore fishing have been fantastic this month.

    If you would like a fishing trip from 3 to 10 hours in July please drop us a message via our website, www.skylarkfishing.co.uk, or a call on 07939 025881.

    we are booking up fast this month so please book early to avoid disappointment.

  • 06/2015 Fishing Report by Rich Cope on Mistress (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    Jun 2015 by Rich Cope

    Report on-board Mistress

    The Fishing has been a bit up and down since our last report, most days we've managed good bags of fish for our crews,

    Saturday we got off to slow start, but we always pick and move trying to find us a cod nest, one mark produced quite well for us in the end, and the rest of the places chucking just a few out we raked up around 60 fish for our anglers, plus a daily winner in the festival and a place in the ladies section.

    Sunday though was very testing with the poor conditions we had wind wise, the lads only raking up around 25 for the boat, saying that though, most were pretty good stamp.

    The day after we went to sea, feeling a bit beaten by the previous days results and had a red letter day! the job certainly keeps you on your toes and it goes to show, two days are never the same!
    we managed to boat around 130 cod, ling and pollock.

    Yesterday, 30th June, we knew the weather would be coming away steady through the day, with that in mind i pushed tide knowing the weather would be behind us on the way home, again a good day for us, we worked wrecks all day and tbh had a good bit of drift to start, but maybe 6 or 7 times had the whole boat into fish at the same time,

    one lad at the back trying for mackerel and small fish for fresh bait pullled in three cod at a time on quite a few drifts, once the tide eased we hit the scrap, one of our regulars lost a good fish on a pouting flapper - but thats fishing!

    I never counted numbers of fish but most of the lads had over 10 fish a piece, some had around 15.

    27 Jun 2015 by Nick Gough

    Report on-board Skylark

    Another great 6 hour trips offshore today with plenty of cod showing off ‪Scarborough‬.

    Shads had the advantage for the first half of the trip, then hokkies and large feathers took the advantage in the second half.

    Lots of strappy ling around with most been around 6 to 7lb.

    Heaviest fish today was a cod just over 10lb caught by Damien. And overall we boated 78 cod and several whiting, mackerel, pollock and ling.

    Weather was fantastic with a light breeze and we also got to see and hear the vulcan bomber display for the armed forces day on the south bay.

    Photo off the heaviest fish of the day just over 10lb.

    25 Jun 2015 by Rich Cope

    Report on-board Mistress

    The awesome Fishing continues here at ‎whitby‬ .
    The fishing today has been absolutely spot on again, we started out ‪wrecking‬ this morning with big baits for big fish, we got plenty of fish each drift, but not the size we were looking for!

    We moved about and then some of the lads ran out of bait! we moved onto some ground to try and find mackerel in numbers all the lads did was start bringing cod in three at time! so we stayed a while and smashed them with the shads before moving away in search of mackerel.

    We went all the way out to the 7 miles but had no drift, in the end we hit the 2nd slack water with pouting, coalies and a few odds and sods for bait! we moved inshore and suddenly found a few mackerel - at last!

    The lads carried on bait fishing and i got stuck in getting them some bait, and it did the trick, we took a daily 2nd spot with a Ling 11lb 5oz, the same lad also got a nice cod around 10lb too, we lost a good one just shy of the gaff, we saw it estimated it to be around 15 / 16lb!

    Its certainly the best show of mackerel we've had all year up till now, taking two thirds of a gorrilla tub.
    With a good forecast tomorrow and small tides we'll be hoping to better our day and see a few better fish as they seem to be poking their noses out at last.
