    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    A mixed group of regular anglers joined the boat yesterday for some mixed rough ground and wreck fishing.

    First stop was a small wreck just 4 miles North from the harbour where the lads took a half dozen fish. Small Codling and Ling on the baited rigs.

    A short move of just a mile next, to another bit of scrap which produced a similar amount of fish. Again, nothing of any size.

    We moved on again then to another wreck which fished a little better where the group took a dozen or so from it.

    Everything so far falling to the baited rigs. Squid bait being the best.
    Alan Sutcliffe did try a pink Shad on this wreck and clicked a couple of Codling fair and square which was good to see.

    When the fish slowed up we decided to drop on a strip of ground which has a tiny bit of scrap at the North end and the fish started coming aboard much better.

    3 doubles boated here and around 25 fish in total. Much better sport for half an hour or so.

    We steamed down to our last wreck of the day next, around 5 miles South of our last stop.
    Again, nothing startling but we did take fish again. Just half a dozen or so and still, nothing big to shout about.

    One last stop on the ground on the 3 mile to finish off, where on one drift the lads took 10 fish in about 2 minutes! A proper mad moment.

    A good finish to a pretty good day.

    A rough guesstimate, I’d say 60-70 fish for the day which is well satisfactory.
    Best Codling today nudging 7lb with Ling to a similar size.

    Everyone going off home with happy faces and plenty of fillets for the table.

    Cheers lads,
    Really appreciate your support as ever.

    Rich.
