Fishing Report by Rich Ward
on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
23 Jul 2024 by Rich Ward
Report on-board Shy-Torque III
The 2024 Summer angling competition effectively came to an early end on Saturday, as we decided as an association to cancel the last day for inclement morning weather.
A NW breeze on the increasing tides would have made it nigh on impossible to fish.
We had a mixed group on on the penultimate day and we didn’t fish very well at all to be fair.
The Mackerel fishing to start the day off for the bait stocks was great but after that we literally picked a few fish up here and there.
First stop was the 9 mile area where we had taken a couple of decent fish the day previous.
We only managed a couple of fish there.
We tossed the coin and voted to run out to a wreck which has historically thrown a few competition winners out over the years.
We took just 8 fish from it and none of them were anywhere close to being contenders.
The next wreck was just a half hours steam away and we hit it at a perfect slack water.
Lines straight up and down for the first few drops and the lads picked a half dozen from it.
As the tide bent through and the boat started to cross it on a more natural drift, we took another half dozen or so and that was it. Again, no contenders for the prize sections.
After another 3 of 4 moves towards end the day off we only saw another couple of fish boated and we called it.
Tally of just 30 fish for the day.
Best fish for us on Saturday, a Ling for Henry of 9lb 10oz.
A lovely day out on the water with great lads and we thank you all for joining us.
I’d like to congratulate my lifelong friend and skipper Kev Marsden on winning this years Summer competition on his boat the Jean-K, with a cracking Ling of 15lbs 11.5oz.
Well done mate!!
Some Seriously big Spring tides now so a few days off for jobs and some motorcycling! ����️��️
Cheers

Fishing Report by Andy Savage
on Sea Urchin IIl (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
22 Jul 2024 by Andy Savage
Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
Apologies for the delay in the catch report …..Saturday saw the lads from The Keel Inn Fishing Club aboard. A day I really look forward to, as they’re all brilliant company and the p**s taking is relentless and brutal in equal measure!!
It was the last day of the Summer Competition and with a 16lb fish required to get in front we had a couple of options. With it being a 5m tide, we would usually split the day between wrecks and rough ground. But with very light winds and not great numbers of fish showing on the rough ground, the lads were happy to fish the wrecks all day in the hope that a better fish would come their way.
With the tide being fairly slack, we started on a wreck just over a mile from the pier ends straight away. We got a couple of fish every drift, but they were just strap Ling in the main. We then moved out to the rough ground at three miles to try for some Mackerel; which turned out to be patchy, but we got enough to get us going. Whilst drifting the rough ground, we noticed that despite the predicted tide, nobody was actually paying out line on the drift and they were all fairly vertical. That was the decision made, we opted to commit and run South to have a go on the wrecks for the rest of the day.
We were pushing the Ebb tide but thankfully, there were no boats ahead of us, so we could pick and choose the wrecks which suited the drift the best for the whole day. The Ebb tide produced fish off every wreck, some more than others. Tog Edwards managed to find the biggest Codling of the day at 5lb 8oz and Gaz managed a 10lb 6oz Ling. The fishing was far from fantastic, but that seemed to be the same across the board when speaking to the other Skipper’s.
When the Flood tide came through the sport literally dried up. We took only a handful of fish for the last couple of hours and unfortunately, the monster we were searching for didn’t materialise. The lads fished hard all day and whilst they fish hard, I will never stop trying. Thanks for a great day out lads. View Boats Page

Report on-board High Flyer 2
Up to date at last the weather seems to be playing ball. got first tope late this year well done to bill. Big mackerel so far better than last year still getting plenty smoothounds and usual spotty dogs. Unfortunately we seem to catch whiting all year round now the wrecks have given us a few cod but the pouting are difficult to wade through. Nice to see a couple of wrasse we never used to get them along with a strap conger things must be warming up our end. Looking like were going to enforce deposits now getting ridiculous the amount of letdowns cant run a business on peoples reliability nowdays such a shame so dont be offended if your asked all fully refundable on bad weather. Few places left on the tope days if you fancy your arms being stretched the high flyer is out water sep 23 for a week or so shown on website. Look forward to seeing you guys at sum point.

Report on-board Kraken
Saturday 20th July -
A 10 hour Charter Trip onboard Kraken Sea Fishing organised by Dave and his group.
We started the trip off reasonably well with a few mackerel and lots and lots of weaver fish. However, when we anchored up further out we were not disappointed with strings of Mackerel caught by all.
Once we were at anchor we caught many species which included Sea Bream ( a first for this season on Kraken!), Mackerel, Whiting, BullHuss, Thornback Rays, Flatfish, Tub Gurnard and Dogfish.
Following that we went further out and caught some nice Pollack, Pouting Terry Gledhill caught a lovely 8lb 6ozs Cod.
Although the weather turned very very wet, all onboard enjoyed the day and a great crowd. See you soon! View Boats Page

Fishing Report by Rich Ward
on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
20 Jul 2024 by Rich Ward
Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Paul Hough and his two mates Mark and Andy chartered the boat yesterday for their annual 12 hour trip.
We decided to give them a run out to the “Wall” for the day and play around on the rough ground.
The picking was only steady to be fair but rather than chasing around all day we chose to stick and pick.
A couple of fish a go and up to 4 some drifts gave the lads a reasonable show at the end of the day.
Fergus’s filleting skills were required on the return back home and he reckons they’d had a couple of full boxes between them so around 150lb of fish.
A nice few different species too yesterday with Codling, Coaley, Haddock, Acadia redfish, Ling and of course the usual pest fish in Whiting and Pouting.
The majority of the fish falling to the artificials with the 4” shads and sidewinder lures doing the business.
Great to see you lads and we’ll see you again next year.
Cheers
