    Report on-board Mistress

    Fishing the last week has been up and down, we have seen some cracking fish boated, towards the end of the festival Keith Bywater from Rotherham hooked something very good, and the way it was stripping line and lunging I had an incling it was a Halibut from the start, we set the drag fairly light as keith fought with is fish.

    I was hoping for a big one, but not this time sadly, i went 15lb on the boat scales, not a monster but equally a fish of a lifetime as not many are caught. well done Keith!

    The spring tides we have just experienced (biggest of the year) have given mixed results with us having to work hard for our fish, some days better than others, the better anglers still leaving with decent bags. never the less still finding a few for the rest of the lads. It should improve as the tides ease again
