Fishing Report by Rich Ward
on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
With the tides running strong on a 5.7m we chose to do some Uptiding yesterday.
We used the tide and ran a few miles to the North of the harbour to some inshore ground.
The ebb tide produced the best with the lads picking away with the Codling until slack water.
A good number of small Billet boated too.
The change of tide brought the freshening South Easterly which always spoils things and made the ride home a bit blashy!
Steve Knott from Manchester took the daily first in the competition with a Codling an ounce under 4lb. Not a big fish by any standard but it still won him the £50.00 daily prize.
Cheers

Merlin set out from Rhyl at 11:40 on an 8hr Individuals trip with a full boat.
The first stop was for Herring and Mackerel and this did not disappoint. Plenty coming on board.
Next it was time to anchor up where the anglers fished happily for Bull Huss, Rays, Whiting, Dabs and Dogs with a few good sized Lance coming in which were good for bait.
Merlin returned to Rhyl 19:40 with a fulfilled group of anglers after a lovely flat calm and warm day with plenty caught.

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
A nice day on the water yesterday on our 2nd run out in this year’s Spring competition.
We started on a wreck 12 miles North of the harbour for a handful and to be honest we only saw another 5 or 10 fish boated until we dropped on our last wreck of the day some 22 miles North. It didn’t produce heaps of fish but certainly helped in the days total.
Great crack with lovely weather again.
This weekend’s tides running at 5.7m means we will be chucking the anchor over as the drift fishing will be far too quick.
No daily prize winner yesterday but one or two nice chunky Codling. Our best of the day was Dave Sharpe’s at 6.0lbs
Cheers lads and see you all again soon.

Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
Another lovely day out on the wrecks today with a great group of lads of mixed experience. With lighter winds and a bit less swell than the previous day, conditions were great for a few fish. We headed back out to the clearer water and everyone got stuck in.
It only took a couple of drifts before everyone was into the swing of it. Most drifts saw anything from 2-5 Codling come up in the 2-4lb range. It was nice fishing with plenty of bites.
Richard Wheatley took the best fish of the morning at 5lb and there were a few over 4lb. Once we started to hit slack water, the bites slowed a little, so we had a move.
With the flood tide pushing against the wind, the drift of the boat was held up, allowing us to drift a smaller wreck, slowly. This paid off well, with four rods into fish on both of the first two drifts. Rob Waterworth managed to find a strap Ling in amongst the Codling and it turned out to be a good end to the day.
Nearly all the fish came to bait traces with muppets and Squid. Thanks for another great day out everyone. View Boats Page

Fishing Report by Simon Logan
on Deep Blue (Eastbourne, East Sussex)
9 Apr 2022 by Simon Logan
Report on-board Deep Blue
Well, what a day we’ve just had out on Deep Blue. Only the 4 customers onboard today, with mixed approaches and experiences with a rod in hand.
The bites happened as soon as the silt from dropping the anchor had settled. A nice little plaice followed by a lovely double figured Thornback ray flew onto the deck. The ray took us by surprise because we had literally just put the rods into their holders on the first drop of the day. Not long after another double ray, followed by another.
We had definitely found the ray‘s stomping ground. Across the deck a double shot whiting was being hauled, and a complimentary dog fish, and then more whiting. Then BANG! Another big bend in the rod, and up came another double figured ray. This time tipping the scales at 14lb 8oz. Aggelos, a young Greek lad from West London had the privilege. Everyone was bringing really decent fish over the gunwales. Bites were thick and fast on the ebb, and well into slack water too.
The bites started to ease off at the turn of the tide. We stayed put and fished the first hour of the flood. The big fish had stopped feeding but we were graced with a few new species for the day. A nice Gurnard, a dab and a Smooth-hound pup were the next to feel peckish.
We lifted the anchor and headed to the rock marks. The water had become noticeably choppier with the strengthening wind. We set up for our first drift. Using a single 4/0 running ledger rig, and a Jaffa cake sized piece of squid, Bruce bounced his lead at the beginning of the rocks. FISH ON! “It’s a pollack” were the words muttered by Bruce’s mates. I readied the net, and up it came. A flipping Codling!! Only about 3.5lbs, but there it was, in all it’s glory, a highly coveted East Sussex cod. As we set about starting another drift the boat was moving around a bit on the chop. One of the group had been caught off guard, and put his hand out to steady himself. Sadly for him, he managed to find the razor sharp blade of a bait knife. I cleaned him up and bandaged his hand. He was adamant he wanted to fish on, but with the water still bashing us about, and everyone having such a good day, they all elected to call it a day a bit earlier so Bill could get his hand checked out. The right call!
All in all, a great day was had, with some fantastic and unexpected fishing, with a great group of lads, and I’m sure they’ll be back for another go in the near future. View Boats Page

Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
Today was the inaugural trip of the “Coffin Dodger’s Cod Tours”……Apparently they’re too old for a Saga Holiday!! A great group of lads who fish with me regularly. We decided to have a run off and fish a few wrecks, using the Ebb tide to our advantage.
First drift saw three nice Codling come up and that pretty much continued throughout the remainder of Ebb. The best drift saw six fish come up and whilst we didn’t find anything big, our best Codling weighed a touch over 6lb, with plenty of nice pan sized fish.
Squid on bait traces with muppets accounted for the majority, although a few fish did come to black and red Jellies.
It was great to see a few fish back on the wrecks, hopefully a sign of some good sport to come. Thanks to everyone for a brilliant day out, really enjoyed the company and banter. View Boats Page

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
We managed a day at sea yesterday after yet another long spell of landlubbing!
It was our first day in the Spring Competition as Saturday was cancelled for bad weather.
A regular mixed group joined us and as the tides are currently on the smallest neaps, wrecking was the order of the day.
We touched on our first one for just a handful of Codling so moved out a few miles.
All but 3 rods went straight in to fish on the first pass which was great and we picked away at it for the full morning where the lads gathered a good amount of Codling.
Just the 2 “bootlace” Ling boated with plenty of chuck backs too.
Our heaviest fish of the day was a Pollock of 5 1/2 lbs caught by Kyle Reeves from Sheffield which won the sweep and also won him the best of the day in the competition with another £50.00!
A great day with lovely weather and great banter as usual.
A couple of days off again now but hopefully back at em on Wednesday when the weather looks to be setting again.
The competition runs for 2 weeks and we still have a few days left with spaces.
Cheers

*** Fishing Report 10/4/22***
Today saw our 1st Double Shuffle of the year with a regular party on an 8hr Charter followed by a mixture of regulars and 1st timers on a 5hr Individual trip.
We set off from Rhyl at 08:00 for the 8hr trip fishing a rough patch of ground approx 8mile NW of Rhyl were we fished steadily for a few hrs before relocating to a nearby wreck where the fishing improved further. This trip saw Dabs, Whiting, Dogfish, Thornback Rays, Sea Scorpion and Dragonet.
At 16:00 we left Rhyl once more for a 5hr and tried a new spot 6mile NE of Rhyl for the flood trip and the fish were none stop throughout the duration with plenty of Dabs, Whiting, Dogfish, Thornback Rays and the first Bull Huss of the year weighing in at 11lb.
A vast improvement in the fishing as we are moving further into April and it will only get better as we move further into the 2022 season.
We still have plenty of availability over the coming months and a lot more additional dates are now advertised.

Its been a long time since I fished Beer, and i I was really looking forward to the whole Beer experience, from launching off the beach to being hauled back up on your return, it really just adds to the day. not to mention the fishing can be something special here, and you just never know what you might hook into.
Anyways the plan was to fish as light as possible with most of us hoping to fish with our LRF set ups, which we managed to do for most of the trip, stepping up from the normal 2 - 5g lead heads to using 20g weights to a couple ounces which the rods could easily handle but which made the fishing really hands on....and so much more fun when you get a fish...bait used was squid, mackerel, herring, sand eel and rag worm.
Have to admit it was a rather slow day, due in part to me picking too small a tide, and the dreaded bloom already in the water, but we carried on and it wasnt long before the banter was interupted by Ian jumping up as his rod bent over, this was followed by the usual questioning of "what is it then bud?" from all the other's, along with "cor your milking that dogfish mate," Then George called out he could see colour and it looks very breamy.....and we could not believe it, the first fish of the day was a lovely looking black bream.
Now we had the fish biting, and we started working on the species count...dogfish, whiting, grey gurnard, smoothhound, conger, black bream, and the then George caught something special, infact it was the main reason we had returned to Beer as it was the only place I had ever seen them caught, we had thought it would be too early for them but George called out he had a fish on and it was a male dragonette, and In my opinion the best looking fish we have in our waters, it would look more at home in a tropical sea than our cold water's.
For the last hour of the trip we steamed back inshore and had a drift over the sand to see if we could find any plaice, but it wasnt to be and before long it was time to call it a day and bring up our gear for the last time.
I am back out there again in a few weeks time with more trips booked up for later in the year, big thanks to Paul and look forward to fishing with you again soon.... View Boats Page
