    Report on-board Mistress

    12-9-16
    Its been just over a week since our last update and the autumn festival is in full swing here at Whitby.

    I've been working my socks off as always trying to get the Mistress anglers among fish. Leading up to the festival, a few nice fish started poking their heads out giving me high hopes for the event.

    During the big tides we were fishing the ground and luckily there seemed to be a good number a double figure fish lurking on the hard ridges, as the tides lift again I can see us returning to the ground, we had an 18lber off the ground prior to the festival so there's always every chance of a winner cruising around.

    As the tides eased we started fishing the wrecks, we have had a pretty good week aboard Mistress, with many double figure fish boated and many daily prizes to our anglers.

    We're currently leading the event with a a cracking Ling of 23lb 2 1/2oz, but had another 18lber earlier in the week as well as fish just short of 16lb and absolutely loads of 11-12lb fish.
    There still a week to run and there's every chance of catching a bigger one. we have a few remaining places this week on Friday.

    I'm offering a short morning trip on the 29th of this month, running 7am-12 noon. it'll be £25 per person.

    Tight lines - Rich
