Report on-board Luna-Sea (Merlin)
*** Fishing Report 27th April 2021***
Today Merlin set out for her 1st trip of the season with the maximum 6Anglers permitted. The weather was forecast to be fresh but turned out to be a lovely calm but overcast day
We departed Rhyl @ 9am for a 5hr trip and head towards the North Hoyle Wind Farm.
Once we arrived on location, we drifted for a short period in the hope of some Mackerel but to no avail (still slightly early in the season yet)
Once we dropped the hook, we were into the fish, fishing steadily for a good couple of hours. Plenty of Whiting, Dabs and an abundance of Dogs. One angler was well into double figures.
We then decided to head back to Rhyl and set anchor just off the End Perch. This proved to be a good call as the fishing improved and a lovely Smoothound was landed as well as a good sized Whiting.
Once the time was up, we made our approach and arrived safely back in Rhyl at 2pm with a happy bunch on board.

Fishing Report by Andy Savage
on Sea Urchin IIl (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
26 Apr 2021 by Andy Savage
Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
It's been a tricky couple of weeks in the Spring festival at Whitby, with not much in the way of big fish making an appearance. That said, we've had some fairly consistent action on Sea Urchin with our customers taking three daily prizes and plenty for the table.
It is now back to business as usual, so if you fancy a run out at Whitby, rest assured, Sea urchin will provide it.
Hope to see you on-board soon.

Fishing Report by Rich Ward
on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
26 Apr 2021 by Rich Ward
Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Whitby’s first competition of the year finished yesterday.
A tough event this year with strong Northerly winds muckying the water up at the start. Still, we persevered on the days we went and managed a reasonable picking some of the days.
Chris Siddle from Hull dropped on the winning fish on the Shy-Torque III with a ling of 9lb 3oz.
Not a big fish by any stretch but big enough to win him a very nice £500.00! Well done to him.
Chris is pictured with his winning fish.
Our next competition starts on June 26th and runs for 3 weeks inclusive. If you fancy a run out, drop me a line.
Cheers for now.

Fishing Report by Nick Gough
on Skylark (Scarborough, North Yorkshire)

Report on-board Skylark
Not done a catch report for a long while
So thought we best do a summary of what's going on.
Unfortunately every trip so far we have had easterly winds which make fishing difficult on the day. Anglers have been catching cod 2 to 3lb area on all the trips we've done and the odd better pollock. We've tried the grounds to the North and grounds to the South with very little difference.
So today we decided to do something a bit different and with the anglers happily catching and releasing fish.
We decided to do a species hunt and see how many different species we could catch in a trip.
This was thoroughly enjoyed by all anglers and in total we had 11 species caught today.
The fish and shellfish we had aboard the boat were cod, pollock, pouting, coalfish, whiting, lessor spotted dogfish, dab, flounder, lobsters, velvet crab, edible crab,
We tried for many other species of flat fish and rays but unfortunately we just couldn't tempt one on. Great sport on light tackle and using different skills, tackle and locations to try and tempt another species. View Boats Page
