Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Hopefully other skippers will see this post.
RANT time!!
I’d like to thank a certain Mark Roberts, if that’s your real name? (Telephone number 07829889868) if that’s your real number? for not turning up this morning with your 6 associates. You have cost me and my lad our wages for the day.
I have seen and heard some stuff in my 40 years in the charter fishing game, but when I called him this morning at 6.55am to ask where he was, to which he replied, “nearly with you Rich, we are just on the bridge looking at the boats” I did start to worry, as the bridge I was looking at in Whitby had no pedestrians on it at all and just the bridge operators.
I asked him “what bridge are you on?” thinking they may be on the new road bridge further up the river, but oh no, apparently they were stood on a bridge in Jersey!! F*****g Jersey! Really!!!!
Now forgive me for being a little vexed about this but, getting mixed up with Whitby and Whitley Bay is a slight possibility but f*****g Jersey!!
Anyway, his number has now been passed on to all the other skippers here who will also now block him.
This job is hard enough in the first place without this happening. A man with a wooden head couldn’t get a fishing trip this wrong! Could they??????????
Our Charlie is working every chance he gets with me as he is saving like mad for his new motorbike in September and needs his wage more than ever! I hope he meets this lad one day!
Thinking about it now, with a cold beer in hand, I really hope his story was true and it’s cost them a lot of money on flights or a ferry for a completely wasted journey there.
Rant over.
On a brighter note, we did sail with the other 2 lads we had booked on, albeit a shorter trip than normal for obvious reasons and had some lovely Cod to 9lb 8 oz.
Cheers and keep a tight line!
