Fishing Report by Carl Farrar
on TROT- ON (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

Report on-board TROT- ON
Sunday saw Whitby's Premier charter boat Trot On visit a few offshore wrecks searching for clearer water due to the weeks winds which had clouded the water inshore a little. We were pestered by seals on several wrecks but still managed to bag a mixture of Cod, Pollack and Ling to around 6lb caught on a mixture of Shad, Bait and Hokki's
View Boats Page
Regular Trot On angler Chris Mangan had quite a fight with one seal who decided he wanted Chris's Cod for his dinner. Unfortunately the seal won. Although the score for the day ended with Chris 0 - Sammy the Seal 1
All the anglers had plenty of other fish to take home.
Chris won the W.C.S.A Summer festival last year aboard Trot On with a MASSIVE Ling of 33lb 4oz which netted Chris £5000 for the 1st place prize. The 2018 Summer festival starts on June 23rd till July 15th. Paul still had some spaces and dates available so to be in with your chance of winning this years £5000 prize give him a call on 07766995847 and join him on Whitby's Premier Charter boat TROT ON -

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Pete Devonland from Warwickshire and his 6 mates joined us yesterday for their 1st trip of the year.
View Boats Page
A nice gentle offshore breeze welcomed us on the morning so we decided a run to a couple of offshore wrecks was in order to start the day.
First stop didn't produce much at all to be honest with just a couple of codling and a dozen mackerel coming up.
The second mark however proved to be a good move with fish coming aboard from the off. The lads took around 50 fish from it which pretty much saw us through to the end of the day as we had a good distance to run back home.
The fish of the day was this beauty caught by Terry from London weighing in at 17 lb 14 oz. My lad Adam reminded me that the Summer competition starts next weekend and it would have been great to catch him then! We will be chasing his bigger brother then!!!!!!
Great to see you all again lads and we look forward to sailing with you again.
Terry is pictured inset.

TUESDAY 4TH JULY. ROOM FOR 2 ANGLERS.

Fishing Report by Kevin McKie

Report on-board Size Matters
[This report was written when Size Matters was operating from Plymouth]
View Boats Page
The lads from Sefton SAC have been fishing with me for the last week.
They are a good bunch of lads from my home town of Costa Del Liverpool and I have known them for many years.
They enjoyed so good fishing with a few PB’s caught, but as always in the fishing game not
everything goes to plan.
We couldn’t catch any mackerel for bait and we tried to buy if from the fish quay, but there wasn’t much about and the stuff that was available cost £7.50 per kg.
So we decided to stick to staying on the drift using artificial lures to target Cod, Pollack and Ling.
On two of the days we had lost of May weed in the water, at one point it was so thick it was dripping off the rod eyes like strawberry jam,
it was the worst I have ever seen it.
The lads still managed to catch,
Pollack to 16lb, Ling to 14lb 8oz, Cod to 12lb, Whiting to 4lb 1oz and John Dory to 4lb.
Two weeks prior to there trip I posted a photo of a 6lb John Dory, one of the lads from Sefton SAC Mr Pete Plasskett said can you get me one of them when we are out with you.
I replied I can not get them to order, well how wrong I was. On the third day Pete Plasskett got his John Dory!!! So from now on Size Matters does John Dory’s to order ha ha ha.
We only have a few individual places available for 2018.

Report on-board Flamer IV
A lovely day on the Wrecks produced a good catch of Pollack with some double figure fish caught on a variety of lures but red and white lures and jelly worms proved to be the best on the day. Ian Youngs and Graham Johnson also caught Cod. Pictured is Ian Young with his 11Ib 2oz pollack.

Report on-board Pegasus
May Report- What a month, awesome weather especially the later half of the month we managed 24 days at sea in May and today is the first day ashore after a spell of 17 straight days at sea.
View Boats Page
Great to sea some early Bream being caught in one particular area, plenty of fish up to 3lb 9oz with 90% being returned due to the time of year. We’ve also seen plenty of pollack to low double figures, hounds to 7lb, huss to 10lb, Plaice to 2lb, small congers, 4 different types of wrasse, occasional tub gurnards and a few rays. There might of even been the odd dogfish and pout mixed in.... later in the month saw the arrival of a nice few mackerel, great to see them in good numbers at this time of year again.
Wreck fishing has been patchy, plenty of congers up to 50-60lb on the anchor if that’s your thing. Some days have seen a nice few cod and Pollack with Cod to 8lb and Pollack up to 14lb where as other days the fish have been extremely hard to find. We did have a first ever Coalfish on a crossing to Alderney in a mid channel wreck in late may and I have heard of a few more being caught not too far away, let’s hope this is the start of a comeback for the coalfish on the south coast.
Great to see so many anglers enjoying Lyme Bay and beyond though with plenty of old faces and a few new ones thrown in as well.
June availability;
Saturday 16th Inshore 8am-4pm £50
Friday 29th Inshore 8am-4pm £50 Bream, Pollack, Plaice
Evening species league 5-9pm £35 including bait and entry fee.
I also have the following dates available for whole boat bookings or individuals. 25th, 26th, 27th, 28th building tides all that week. There could be the possibility of a first go at a shark trip for the year?

Report on-board Mistress
Its been around a week since our last update from Whitby.
View Boats Page
We've had a mixed week with ups and downs with weather. The better fishing is still inshore. We've seen a mixture of species including Ballan wrasse. Sea scorpions, tadpole fish, lesser spotted doggies plus the usual suspects.
We've worked wrecks and reefs with baited hokkais and shads over the smaller tides and as theyve lifted weve hàd more northerly swell and the inshore has coloured up again so we got the anchor back out the last two days.
Our best day was yesterday uptiding where between 6 of us we boated over 100 codlings best angler getting over 30 himself. The biggest was ounces short of 10lb.
We've plenty of space midweek and also over the upcoming festival. The entry fee is usually around £5 per person on top of your charter fee.
If your interested in a trip with me on Mistress whether youre experienced or a novice gìve me a call or text on 07977 436903

Fishing Report by Nick Halstead
on Queensferry (Scarborough, North Yorkshire)

Report on-board Queensferry
Monday 11th June. A scheduled 7 hour trip turned into 8.5 hours thanks to Neil keeping us catching some lovely cod.
View Boats Page
Fished the southern land rock in almost perfect conditions with very light winds and a smallish tide. The catch consisted of almost all cod in the 3 to 7lb range and in excess of 70 keepers to the boat with no end of smaller fish returned.
The fish came to both bait and lures, fresh worms and mussel took a lot of fish but the stand out bait was undoubtedly a large squid bait which although didn't take the numbers of fish as the worms it certainly produced the bigger stamp.
Best lures were a sandeel type of shad with all colours seemingly effective.
All in all a fantastic enjoyable day with plenty of top quality fillets for the freezer.
