    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    The amount of fish here at Whitby at the moment is fantastic and the best part about it is it's right on our doorstep!!

    Since the last report here on CBUK the lads have enjoyed some really quite amazing sport. Most of the fish are of a similar stamp around the 3lb to 5lb mark which is a great size for the pan!!

    Yesterdays crew were two groups and a single making up the full boat. Eric Davison's group from the West Riding, Chris Booth's lads from the North East and single angler Steve Bulliment from East Yorkshire.

    The day started off relatively slow compared to the last few trips but this was down to the WNW breeze against the tide which almost held the boat at a standstill. Not good for the ground fishing which is where we have been seeing the best results of late. So we decided to drop on a couple of wrecks for just a hand full of fish apiece. As the breeze eased away I decided that a run off a bit further was in order and popped out to a strip of ground unknown to many, some 8 miles from the harbour. This was like a trip down memory lane for me as I hadn't been there for over a year!! As soon as we stopped on the first feed mark and all the gear hit the bottom I knew we were in for a good time. Every rod on the boat bent in to fish. Bingo!!!

    Shads and baited Hokkai's taking the bulk of the fish which were coming on board in trebles at one point!!

    We managed 6 drifts across the ridge where we took over 100 cod!! A terrific end to what looked like being a fairly standard sort of day at the beginning. We'll be straight back there again as soon as this nasty bit of weather passes.

    We only have one day left in June now where the boat is empty. This is the 16th June.
