Report on-board Sea Otter 2
Had a mixed group of lads on today and decided to have a look out on the 20mile the forcast was supposed to be spot on but as usuall we had a good breeze from the northwest first thing just make things a bit bumpy.
We had a nice steady ride out i said to the lads the wind would drop away soon when we arrived out on the 20 mile the wind did just the opposit and freshned even more white water everywhere i was thinking this cant last for long anyway i set the boat up over the wreck and told the lads to drop down most of the lads had shads on a mixture of hollowbellys and storm shads the first drif most of rods were bent over as the cod attacked the the lures more or less instantly for the first dozen of so drifts it was cod which were showing in the back of mind i was thinking pollock they cant be far away no sooner had the thought entered my head and one of the lads was shouting for the gaff a cracking pollock was on the surface when isaw the fish i new it was another double figure pollock a lovelly fish going just under 12lb then the next drift up came another cracker this one was one just over 10lb by now the wind had all but gone the sea had dropped more or less flat overall the really nice day with some really nice cod and once again those double figure pollock.
2 of the lads with the best pollock of the day and a couple of cod out of there catch .

Brian and his huge Pollacks
Had Brian Cope on and his partner Sunday along with 9 lads from sheffield the weather was perfect for a run off to the distant wrecks and the long journey proved worth while plenty of cod but the best sport was with the pollack which are showing more and more this time of the year here in Whitby Brian managed a cracking fish of just over 15lbs along with a few more well over 10lb the 15 lber is a new pollack record for sea urchin II over the last few years they seem to be getting bigger our previous best was 13lb last year lets hope this is the future because the sport they offer is absolutely fantastic View Boats Page

After Saturdays poor inshore fishing possibly due to the murky sea and swell combined Sundays trip had to be another long off shore wrecking haul but boy was it worth it for Brian Cope who beat his personal best with a marvelous Pollock of just over 15lb also I might add a Sea Urchin best ever Pollock
the boat was mainly full of novice anglers who also caught plenty of cod on the bait but the pollock were the main sport I think Brian landed four all over 10lb and one around 13lb I managed to land one just over 8lb in between untangling and re rigging the novice boys from Sheffield but a great day and well worth the trip out the festival looks to me like a pollock winner allthough we did see a double figure ling as well on the boat Sunday but my money is on the pollock in this years spring festival lets just hope the weather stays fine View Boats Page

Well we have had some monster tides this last week and once again an early agie bloom is well under way the cod fishing today wasnt brilliant due to the algie bloom but there was still cod coming aboard we still have very big tides which are on there way down but it was pollock which showed there hand today with some really nice fish.
The lads started with shads for the cod but it was obvious they werent attacking them but we still manged a few nice fish so i got the lads on on worms and sidewinders then the fun began the pollock came steady and the best going just over 13lb a cracking fish mick hollingworth came out on top with his personal best pollock all in all the lads really enjoyed the pollock fishing and cant wait for another bash small tides this weekend the cod fishing could explode.

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
A very frosty morning greeted us on Friday just gone. Usually perfect conditions after a keen frost but sadly we had a NW breeze for most of the day which hampered the fishing for us. However during the period over slack water we did manage to find a good number of codling to the 7lb mark on a few of the inshore wrecks. Most of them falling to the squid bait. The hokkais also taking a few fish. Nothing on the shad on the day which was strange after the previous few trips where they had been working well. Anyway the main thing is is that the fish are still showing here at Whitby and the signs for the season are looking very good indeed !!

Report on-board Sea Otter 2
Yesterday had a group of lads who work for john lewis from manchester never reall done a serious wrecking before and hadnt seen cod into double figures before well yesterday they werent dissapointed we have had a northerly swell running for a few days and in time the water clarity does drop and bait rather than lures especially shads this time of year which normally fish extremly well but today it was squid which did the damage.
The tides are extremly small perfect for inshore wrecking whitby has many many wrecks within 5 miles of shore up and down the coast and at this time of year they a stuffed with cod we started on wreck at 5 miles and the lads went straight into fish a nice few cod and one or two ling after about an hour the fishing dropped away the water clarity wasnt as i would like it so i decide to move off to the 10 mile where i new the clarity would be better we started on rough ground and it mike the organizer who nailed a really plump cod which tipped the scale at 13lb he was over the moon a personal best talk the lads were now keen as mustard you could hear a pin drop we worked the ground till the tide stared to ease the lads were getting some really nice cod up and around the 6or 7lb mark i said its time to go and have a crack on another wreck we will bait fish the wreck with squid .
I decided to drop a shad down to check if the cod were taking them but it was squid once again which the cod wanted and it was jamie whos turn it was to get a double his fish also was tipping the scales between 12-13lb another plump fish the lads fished very steady for the next 3hours bringing some really nice cod onboard they were exstatic a cracking day they were very happy they all ended with some lovelly sized cod .
Mike the organizer won the day with the biggist.

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
The weather today here at Whitby was superb as I'm sure it was in a lot of other angling ports around the country. We had a mixed group on today from as far afield as Southport. We made our way to the ground on the 9 mile to start with very poor results! Then, on and out to the wrecks on the 20 mile stream, again with fairly poor results considering there had been nobody out there for about 3 weeks! Oh well only one thing for it then. Another charge out to the "Wall" and fingers crossed all the way there. Good call !! Arriving there at around 9.30a.m and fishing through to around 2.45pm all the lads amassed a good amount of both cod and ling. Squid taking the better fish but the shads also catching well. Best cod of 10lb falling to Paul Pantellerisco from Southport ( pictured ) and best ling of around 10lb also going to Paul. A very fun filled day with both excellent fishing, excellent humour and excellent weather. Cheers lads and see you all again very soon. Rich.
