17/4/15 - Another top days wrecking today here at Wwhitby , I returned to where I'd finished off yesterday, I knew I'd left fish behind so returned for a second installment!
The fishing started much the same as it did yesterday morning, From the first drop, every rod bent into fish, again the quickest lads getting down for a 2nd fish on each drift.
It didn't seem to matter what colour or pattern of shad was offered, the cod were smashing them as soon as they hit bottom, we fished here all morning until the tide eased and the fish went off.
A quick move to wreck nearby for slack water saw us take a steady picking of fish to bait, including a couple of bonus Pollock to lures. Eventually the tide started pushing and we moved a little closer to home working a few ground marks.
The lads were getting a double hook ups of Codlings as we drifted with the start of the new tide, unfortunately as the tide started running full bore, the fishing tailed off and we set of for home, most of the lads manged on average around 20 fish apiece some more, some less, but there were lots of in size fish returned again by the lads.

Report on-board Mistress
The spring run of cod this year at whitby has been and continues to be phenomenal!
Today 16/4/15 has been the best day at sea since I started chartering full time in 2012.
We got away to slow start on a couple of wrecks on the way out to where I wanted to be, we were still catching fish but just a slow picking, until I made the move to where i wanted to be.
Drift after drift we got every rod into fish, some lads getting a second go at the fish, we carried on picking away until the tide eased and fishing also eased with it. We fished through slack water dropping big baits into the wreck looking for a festival contender, finally Andy Holmes from Castleton, managed to latch into something a bit better, a nice ling, it looked to be around 8/9lb, then his mate Martin boated a nice cod around 8lb.
The tide got away and we moved to another mark nearby, I could tell as soon as i saw the activity on the sounder we were in for some more fireworks!
As with the previous wreck, drift after drift every rod bent into fish, you could feel the fish fighting each other for the shads, by 2pm we had caught and returned lots of fish and I called lines up for a steady steam in to give the lads plenty of time to sort their catch.
Back at the weigh in Andy's fish managed to take 1st position of the day netting him £50, the Ling went 9lb 12oz making it the 2nd heaviest fish of the competition so far, as the tides ease again next week, we should see a few better fish start coming to the scales.

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Some superb fishing aboard the boat this last few weeks with a good number of our anglers leaving for home with up to 30 cod each. A great days sport by anyone's standards!!!
The water is abundant with Spring feed at present and with the clarity being so good too we are really having some bumper days fishing on the shads.
The best bit is that we are only steaming for half an hour before we start giving one and all some terrific action all day long!!
The prospects for the forthcoming season really are looking handsome for the Shy-Torque anglers.
If you fancy a slice of this amazing early season action or fancy making any bookings for later on in the year, give me a ring any time during the day up till 8pm (any day)

Another absolutely top day again today.
Matt and the lads from York took the boat today and what a blinder they had! as soon as we arrived at our wreck, the sounder said it all!
I wasn't surprised that drift after drift we had every single rod in on the boat. the fish were going bananas for the shads, no particular colour fishing better than the rest, I got biggest bag of 26 cod on a 3" ghost tiger storm shad.
Unfortunately no festival prize fish, the biggest just shy of 7lb, most were around the 4lb mark and giving the lads their due, they returned a lot of fish too, I seem to be seeing a lot more people returning fish lately, its great to see.
Needless to say the lads were all delighted with their catch today with us amassing between 80 & 90 Cod between the 5 of us.

Its been a day or two since we got away, we a had a bit of a disaster missing the weigh in the other day, so I was looking forward to wrecking staying fairly local for a change.
Conditions fell in place perfect today, and it turned out to be a blinder of a day. I only had six booked on, I told them we would be fishing within the hour and we were, we got off to slow start on our first wreck, so moved to one nearby, our 1st drift took 5 cod for the lads including a double shot of fish for one of the lads. we took a few more fish and I moved further off.
I got the lads on shads and the fishing was steady away with us getting between 3 & 5 fish a drift, before it tailed off a bit. We moved a gain for the start of the ebb, and it came alive! every rod was into fish fish every drift and those fast enough to get back down got another, so some drifts saw 9 or 10 fish.
The forecast was to come fresh so we started making our way back towards home stopping after a few drifts each spot, every time taking a good few.
The wind finally came and we returned just after 4pm, after a count up it apparent the lads had a great day taking well over 100 cod between them, with plenty returned for another day.

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
This last weekend was a complete washout with strong winds and heavy showers here at Whitby.
We did however manage to sneak a day in last Friday between weather systems and the 5 lads chartering the boat had a very enjoyable days sport with Cod to just over 9lbs and pollack to just over 7lbs.
The ground and wrecks on the 9 mile providing the majority of the sport. The shads and the frozen squid doing the damage.
Pictured with a nice pollack is Jason from Market Raisen, Lincs.
With the Spring festival fast looming up ( starting this coming Saturday 4th ) we're all hoping that the weather will finally turn for the better for us all and we can take to sea a lot more than of late. We still have spaces in the comp so drop me a line,mail or text to arrange a day where you will be in with a chance of grabbing a very nice £1000.00 in cash!!
