    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    With the weather being a little kinder to us, we managed to get to sea over the last three days on the Shy-Torque III.

    On Friday we decided to give the offshore option a go first and ran out to the 9 mile area where we dropped on a couple of bits of scrap and several ground marks.
    After a couple of hours of trying everything we knew, we decided to run back inshore and drop the anchor as only one “bootlace” Ling was boated!

    With the tide only running slow on a 4.3m the Uptiding/Downtiding was never going to be at its best, but we had to give it a go and
    3 hours later we only managed another 15 or so Codling plus the usual other bits and bobs.
    A slow day to be fair but enjoyable nevertheless.

    On Saturday we decided to concentrate more on the Uptiding marks after the previous day and at the end of the day we had only managed to boat 20 or so fish.
    Still, better to see the the rods twitching with something!

    On Sunday we had a team of mixed East Europeans with us and they asked to have a run offshore (even though I’d explained it wasn’t fishing) so we headed out in a different direction and tried a couple of wrecks out to the East of the harbour.
    A slightly better day (but still not good) with around 30 fish boated.

    Every single fish over the last three trips have been landed on baited rigs, indicating that even further offshore, the water is still very murky after the constant storms we’ve seen over the early winter period.

    This coming week we see the tides building back up to the sizes we like for the inshore work, so here’s hoping things pick up a little for us on the Uptiding/Downtiding marks.

    Cheers for now,
    Rich
