  • 07/02/2023 Fishing Report by Rich Cope

    7 Feb 2023 by Rich Cope

    Its been a while since we popped a report up due to other commitments.
    But we'll be resuming charters again from next month.

    We've just fitted a new engine which is giving us a good bit more speed, yesterday we had the boat out for a run with a few friends, we fished inshore at anchor and fished into darkness.

    We took a steady stream of fish for the few hours we were off, biggest went around 5lb and my pal got the best bag of fish with 11 to keep, we threw a good number back too. All fish were caught on squid, black lug and squid.

    Signs are looking good moving forward.

    If you fancy a trip with us give me a shout on 07977 436 903, if you cant get through, drop me a text or whatsapp, and I'll get back to you asap.

    We managed a nice day at sea yesterday.

    We knew the wind was forecast to get up by mid morning so, nipped offshore first thing to get the lads 1 or 2 mackerel ��

    The wind was creeping all the time we we're there so we ran inshore for a very early crack at the uptiding. Conditions were near enough for it.

    Well it wasnt winter uptiding fast but we got fish everywhere we went, most around 2-3lb but we had a few bigger 4lbers and the biggest topped just over 6lb.

    We have the winter uptiding festval running again this year from the 6th - 21st November.

    We currently have remaining,
    7th November- 5 places
    8th November- 5 places

    Drop me a message or WhatsApp if your interested in joining us for a day.

    Our 1st day entering the WCSA Grand Summer Festival yesterday saw our anglers among the fish.

    The mackerel played ball for us giving us plenty of fresh bait for the day.

    We managed plenty of nice fish with some going into double figures, we also lost some better fish too! But that's fishing!

    We finished the day on high taking a daily 1st place.

    A quick report guys, we've had some mixed days this week before the sea came away again.

    We had a crack at the wrecks early on in the week as the tides were still small and even though we were marking fish I could see the clarity wasnt there, as is usual around this time of year. It looked a bit green and other skippers trying other marks also confirmed the dreaded may water was setting in.
    We took a few fish off the wrecks but it was hard work but we got some double shots of cod on the hokkais.

    Luckily the tides we're lifting over the following days we had trips and I knew things would get better, and they did! The next couple of days we got the anchor down resulting with much better fishing for the lads.

    I expect we'll be staying at anchor for a few more weeks until the algae clears and hopefully we'll get a good crack at the wrecks as the water clears out for the summer.

    If you fancy a trip with me give me a call or text on 07977 436903. My online calendar is upto date as I write this. We've still a few dates available left through the year.

    Hi guys! Just got back off our holiday and was in need of a fishing fix!

    Had a little run off tonight for a few hours with my good friend Alex.

    We caught plenty of throw backs and kept 5. The tides were a bit small tonight but theyre on the lift this week.

    We have a few spaces on our 6-7 hour trip on tuesday as well as our full day trip on thursday.

    We will be looking to pick up our night trips again as soon as the potting lads start bringing a bit of gear back ashore.

    Hi guys time for an update! The weather has dealt us a very poor hand this week, but between our last report and this one the fishing has come on tremendously!

    Weve seen some quality fish at anchor now theres a good bit of colour inside.

    Everyone has been getting good numbers of fish each trip, with what seems like thousands of small codlings in the 36-38cm range. Legal yes but ethically we always try not keep anything under 40cm unless gut hooked. So plenty of throw backs each trip.

    Best bait as always is black lug and squid cocktail.
    We've taken our 1st batch of black lug now so Bait Packs will be available again to our anglers, which will need to be pre ordered the night before the trip.

    At the minute long range i can see only monday available weather wise, we have 2 places available still. Its £55 per person.

    If you're interested give me a call or text on 07977 436 903

    Hi guys, time for a quick update before I head off for a few days fishing away with the boys.

    Over this set of springs tides we've made a start on the Uptiding for Cod. Its still a bit early, but theres some promising signs. The last two days between a few windy ones we've managed a few nice fish for the lads.

    We're taking bookings for the Uptide Festival which starts the 7th November. Spaces are starting fill up now.

    Give me a call on 07977 436 903 if you fancy a day with me on the Cod.

    Its been a cracking couple of days on the wrecks here at Whitby.

    As the tides have eased and with settled weather, the water has cleared. Bait has caught the biggest ones with a fair few into double figures, but the lads persevering with shads got a few too.

    As the tides lift again we'll be back inshore with the anchor down to try for some early uptiding cod.

    Hi guys weekends here again!
    Its been a while since we did a report on here.

    The fishing has been very up and down, since our last post, but we continue to enjoy our days at sea making nice memories for our anglers.

    We've just finished the Autumn Festival, even though we didn't win this time we had a few daily winners through the event. Our biggest only a couple of pounds smaller than the winning fish.

    Since the last big northerly we've started dipping our toes into the uptiding, catches should start improving as the autumn feed starts to disappear and the cod get their heads down.

    Our uptiding festival starts on the 7th November and is running for 3 weeks this year.
    We're taking bookings and the weekends are filling fast.

    I'd also like to say a very big thankyou to all our customers who've left some amazing reviews for the Mistress.

    If you fancy a trip with me give me a call on 07977 436 903.
