    Report on-board Mistress

    Finally the weather gods have cut us a bit of slack here at ‪whitby‬ . It was nice to get to sea after a good week or so tied up.

    The tides have been enormous this last few days so with only a few anglers booked on we opted to give the ‪uptiding‬ grounds another crack.

    Our first spot gave up a few codlings as we finished the flood and went into slack water, the bites dried up completely so I had a run off a few miles to see if we could tempt a few fish to bait or shads but a combination of coloured water and the big tide meant we just lost gear! Nothing ventured and all that!

    So we steamed back inside and got the anchor back back down, the fishing really was slow on the ebb tide, despite moving all over trying different spots and different baits we just werent hitting them, a few undersized codlings, pouts, whitings and a doggy were all we could muster. In all honesty I thought about calling a short day, but the tide at this point was about to turn so i sat it out a bit longer.

    As soon as the flood bent though the rods started bouncing, so with a couple of hours of the day left we sat it out, moving to a ground edge I like we took a steady picking until home time, everyone got a few cod to take home finishing up with around 20 codlings and the usual bleggs and a doggy, nothing huge but a good few pushing 4lb, and a bonus Lobster for myself, a couple of the lads caught undersized Lobsters too that were returned.

    This next week the tides fall away and the water is clearing all the time so we will be looking to hit the wrecks again, we have bookings for wednesday and friday and the minute with spaces available, we will sail with a minimum of 3 anglers if you fancy any of the other days,

    If you fancy a days fishing on ‪#‎Mistress‬ give me a shout on 07977 436903, e-mail, seafishingwhitby@hotmail.co.uk or drop me a message on my facebook page Mistress Sea Angling Charters
