Fishing Report by Jon Whitton

The uptiding here at whitby over the past couple of weeks has fished really well. The water still isn't as coloured as we would like but we are still managing good numbers of cod for our anglers. The best bait seems to be blacks and squid. The general stamp of fish has been around 3lb to 6lb . The past week has seen south easterly winds creep in and with flood tide it's been hard work as the boat tends to drift round on the anchor especially with the slack tides. No the less we worked through it and still got our anglers good bags of fish. We have also had pollock up to 9lb and seen lots of wrasse and dog fish. With easterlies forecast over the next few days it means a few days off. Tight lines for now !!

We're a couple of weeks into the uptiding season for winter cod. The fishing has got of to a slow start with only small numbers of codlings coming up in the first week. This last week has seen the uptiding improve slightly with catch numbers increasing. The weather this time of year is a key factor for us getting out and has already seen us loose most of September the worst I can remember for several years which was surprising as it's usually a good month for fishing. We will continue to fish the winter season and get out as much as we can and hopefully bring you a good catch report. Tight lines for now !!

Monday 17th september 2018 we fished our first trip in the wcsa autumn festival with regulars Chris lax , Stu Spink and the lads from hull. 5 anglers in total. We fished a well known wreck approx 12 miles down the coast. The tides were spot on (neaps) and it wasn't long before the lads were into ling . The lads were fishing with a mixture of rigs from baited hokkais to shad and side winders . The weather was forecast for it to get fairly breezy from the south east from around dinner but it never came and the lads boated over 40 ling up to 11lb 10oz with the general stamp been between 6lb and 10lb. We spent several hours on the wreck picking up fish every drift. Just after dinner we moved on trying various wrecks whilst heading back to whitby and picked up around half a dozen codlings up to 7lb. Unfortunately we didn't manage any places amongst the prizes for the day. The comp runs until the 30th September so hopefully we can sneak a day or 2 before the festival ends and hopefully get amongst the prizes. To book or for more info contact barry on 07470354403
