    Report on-board Mistress

    We've managed a couple of days at sea this week so far here at whitby, the weather has been very settled and we've had good fishing to go along with it.

    Both days saw 50/60 cod upto 7lb kept with around 30 chuck backs on top of that. Both days saw anglers taking over 10 cod home each.
    Best baits remain black lug, unwashed squid and cart.

    Iam putting an evening trip together this friday (22/12/17) itll run 6pm till midnight and cost £30 person. I have 3/4 people interested already so have space for another 4. Bait can be supplied if required.

    I will start my trips again on December 28th and continue on through winter until i have scheduled yearly out of water painting and maintence.

    If youre interested in a trip with me on Mistress either winter fishing or through the summer drop me a call on 07977 436903 or email me seafishingwhitby@hotmail.co.uk.

    Summer weekends are starting to fill up on the better tides so please book sooner rather than later to avoid disappointment.

    Heres a very merry christmas to all mistress anglers, I hope to see you all in 2018.

    Tight lines Rich

  • 12/2017 Fishing Report by Aaron Smith on Bad Boyz VI (Holyhead, Isle of Anglesey)

    Dec 2017 by Aaron Smith

    Report on-board Bad Boyz VI

    Another week of trips completed on the River Mersey, fishing has been very up and down to day the least, our best day bringing 15 Cod to the boat with plagues of whiting to 3lb.

    As the week progressed so did the amount of snow and rain, this had a missive effect on the Cod fishing thanks to all the freshwater running through, meant we had a Cod Black on Friday!

    Saturday I decided to target the whitings as the crew wanted a good feed, see tallied over 500 whitings and dabs to 2 1/2lb along with 4 Cod to 2lb, 6 stone tub filled with quality fish for the table.

    Hopefully the rain eases this week ready for us to start back on the 23rd.

    I have spaces available 24th/26th/27th for anyone wanting to take a brake from the festive period!

  • 12/2017 Fishing Report by Rich Ward on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    Dec 2017 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Pete Kisby from Nottingham and 4 of his mates joined us today for their pre Xmas offshore trip.

    We started on the ground on the 9 mile to see if there was any action for us but sadly there wasn't !! After the last couple of big Northerly storms I'm guessing the water below is very murky indeed. Even the bait wasn't attracting them.

    We decided that a little run to a couple of offshore wrecks was in order to see if the water was any clearer. Fortunately it was a little better and once the tide bent round after slack the fishing wasn't too bad at all. Pollack to just under 9 lbs and Cod to just over 6 lbs. The lads ended up with around 35 fish between them, so all in all, an ok sort of day. Weather was a real bonus too. Chilly but nice and calm for a change!

    We have room for a few more anglers this coming Wednesday if anyone is interested. The forecast is very good.

    Tight lines.

  • 12/2017 Fishing Report by Rich Ward on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    Dec 2017 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Some good fishing for the lads on today's uptiding (anchor) trip. Well, on the mornings ebb tide anyway!
    Somewhere around 40 fish in the morning with lots of throw back Codling too.

    The afternoon flood tide didn't fish very well at all. I think we only managed about 5 fish in total on the flood so we decided to call it a draw at 3 pm and returned to the harbour to get the high water bridge.

    Bryan Stanton and his son Steve fished the best out of the group. They had a mini competition between themselves and had around 25 fish. I never did find out who caught the most but it was quite intense at times!!

    No big fish today, the best fish only just over 4 lb but some lovely plump codling amongst them.

    A few trips in the diary next week with some room left if you fancy joining us for some Xmas cheer.

    Tomorrow :- Room for 5. Offshore trip.
    Wednesday :- Room for 6. Offshore trip.
    Thursday :- Room for 2. Offshore trip.

    I'd like to wish all our anglers, both old and new, a very happy Xmas and a Happy New Year.

    Cheers and tight lines
    Rich
