    Report on-board Ocean Warrior 3

    We are still getting some nice Cod inshore. The biggest one caught so far this week was by Stuart Cross at 16lb 6oz, using his secret pink squid bait. It was caught on 30lb class gear.

    We have also seen some decent sized Whiting showing and there are also a few Conger still around.

    We are looking forward to a good few months of Winter Cod fishing - if you fancy a trip at around £50 per person call Dave on 07966 377145.

  • 09/2012 Fishing Report by Steve Andrews on Supreme (Rhyl, Denbighshire)

    Report on-board Supreme

    What can I say about September what a windy month it turned out to be keeping us in the harbour for much of the time.
    When we did get out plenty of fish were to be had .
    The start of Sept brought to an end the Tope comp that I have been running on the boat through the summer the winner of the comp with a fish of 55 lb was KARL GANDY which won him £200 .

    Looking forward to a wind free October plenty of dates available check out the calendar for the remainder of 2012 and for 2013

    tight lines

    Report on-board Skerry Belle

    BASS!BASS!BASS! Are just round the corner..phone for best tides,but be quick .Some great cod fishing at the moment! John Barnes showed us how to do it with this cracking cod of 19lb caught on whole cuttle. Plenty of fish in the 4-8lb bracket coming up on large lug baits. We will be targeting the deep water cod venues and wrecks in April/May, which can produce some huge fish and plenty of them once the cod have gauged on the sprats. Call Roger for best tides 07805250427.
    April/May are also great months for the skate fishing out on the Goodwins, where 14lb fish are caught and provide great sport on uptide methods, the chosen bait here being fresh Herring.
    Hope to see you all soon onboard Bayside for another cracking season,and plenty more pbs.
    Tight Lines,
    Roger.

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Yesterday was a very nice day indeed for Brian Towle from Hull as we held our presentation for the winner of the 2012 September fishing festival here at Whitby.

    Brian was fishing aboard the Shy-Torque on the penultimate day of the competition and landed a cracking ling of 23lb 11.5oz to take the 1st prize of £1000.00 in cash plus £50.00 cash for the heavieast fish of the day.

    John Wilcock from Bradford was previously holding the lead for a week with another good ling of 21lb 5.5oz also on the Shy-Torque which he hoped had done it! Unlucky John!

    Brian came through to Whitby with his family to collect the money to which his wife said "I'm going to enjoy helping him to spend it!"

    Congratulations mate and look forward to seeing you all on your trips next year.

    Pictured from right to left are skipper Rich Ward, Brian Towle (winner!) Frankie Laws ( representing sponsors "Mr Chips" fish and chip shop ) and Paul Kilpatrick from the WCSA.

    A big thank you goes to Adrian at Mr Chips for the sponsorship each year and also to Barry at the Endeavour pub ( presentation venue and the best pint in town!! ) who also sponsors the events. Without the local support of businesses like these we wouldn't be able to hold the biggest competitions in the country. Thanks again!!!

    Tight lines as ever

    Rich.

  • 28/09/2012 Fishing Report by Paul Kilpatrick on Sea Otter 2 (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    Report on-board Sea Otter 2

    The wreck fishing of late has been excellent with shads hammering the cod but toaday with the wind forcast being quite strong i decided to have a crack inshore uptiding .
    The storm we had earlyer in the week was big and i new cod would have come well inshore in droves its getting to that time of year late september that the uptiding is just round the corner but what a surprize the lads got today with cod and ling both in double figures with other cod upto and around the 7lb mark all the indications point to a massive upting season

    This man with his PB a cod of 13lb.

    I am now booking for 2013 if its cod your after look no further.

  • 27/09/2012 Fishing Report by Karl Ward on Irene II (Liverpool, Merseyside)

    27 Sep 2012 by Karl Ward

    Report on-board Irene II

    I went out this morning to see what was about.It was a morning tide locking out at 8 o'clock,I only went a short way to the edge of the channel and although there was a good tide flowing I had no trouble holding the bottom with 8 oz weights with grip wires .Catch was 7 whiting and two small codling, It might take a while for the river to get back to normal after all the rain of the last week
