    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Today was a complete contrast on yesterdays fishing on the Shy-Torque. After the struggle we endured yesterday working on the inshore marks we decided that a trip to the "wall" was definately in order.

    We couldn't have wished for better conditions for the cruise out there. A beautiful calm morning with a cracking sun rise thrown in.

    We were greeted by a pair of Minke whales on arrival which was superb for the lads to see!!

    The 1st ridge of ground we stopped on was to be the provider of a tremendous amount of fish for the lads. We never had to move from it all day which was a bonus. Everyone on board had 15 cod plus and some of the lads had half a dozen ling to add to them.

    Dermot Faye from Bedale had a nice little wolf fish of 4lb for the pot. Nice eating too!

    The average size of the cod today were around the 5-6lb mark with a good few fish to the 10lb mark too. A few of the ling managed to nudge the scales to 9lb. Not the monsters of late on the boat but still nice to see.

    A very enjoyable day for all today including myself !!

    Pictured is Craig Small from Barnsley with a couple of his better fish of the day.

    8 Oct 2012 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    The herring are spawning here at Whitby at the moment making for a very poor day quantity wise yesterday.

    Both the cod and ling were very hard to come across indeed. However at the close of play Jim Arthur from Blackburn came across this beauty of 20lb 2oz. A nice way to finish the day after a struggle in the morning.

    Jim is a past September festival winner on the Shy-Torque.

    Nice one mate!!

    Jim Arthur is pictured inset.

  • 07/10/2012 Fishing Report by Peter Everett on Amino (Shotley, Suffolk)

    7 Oct 2012 by Peter Everett

    Report on-board Amino

    Continued good weather allowed us to get out again and the sea ended up like glass at the end of the day, with the sun burning down we all caught a tan as well as some fish :-)

    After the obligatory onslaught of Dogfish and a few Whiting, we lost a couple of large Thornbacks at the first mark and things went quiet so moved further off to try some different ground and although it was quiet at first, we ended up bagging 6 nice Skate to 9lb, 5 late Smoothounds to 6lb, a few more Whiting and more Dogfish than you could shake a stick at!!

    No Cod today but it's still a little early although the fish that have been caught locally are of a reasonable stamp so signs are good-we just need them to arrive in numbers and hopefully the next set of big tides will ease them inshore.

    Well done to Edmund, Adrian and top rod for the day Rueben for sticking at it and not getting too frustrated with the damn Dogs!

    Report on-board Hard Labour

    Challenging fishing this weekend, but we still managed to winkle a few out. Sat produced Roker,whiting the ever present dogfish and codling to a little over 6lb. Sunday was much the same story with similar fishing and codling upto 7lb 4oz. The weather was perfect this weeknd which allowed us to get to the offshore cod grounds and although there are a few showing it is still a bit early for our run of cod. However if this is a sign of things to come with the fish being in the 6 to 7lb range, we could be in for a good winter season
