    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Last day of the Spring competition yesterday.

    Alex Choy and his friends joined us on a perfectly flat calm day!

    Alex fished with us a couple of weeks ago alongside Gary Jones and had a cracking day on a strip of ground 20 miles East of the harbour.
    He asked me straight away if we could return there again yesterday to see if we could chance a repeat performance!

    A fairly heavy tide to punch our way out there putting a few minutes and a few more gallons of fuel through the motors!!

    The day started out well with a couple of dozen fish boated in the first three drifts!

    Things slowed up over slack water and just as the flood tide pushed through, a guard vessel came over the VHF asking us to move for a cable laying ship (which was nowhere to be seen and not even on the radar range of 16 miles!!!
    Most annoying as we had just started clicking a few more fish!
    Anyway, we obliged him and moved inside him by half a mile and finished off with another 15 or so fish.
    No big fish sadly.
    Our best, a Ling of just 8lbs.

    A thoroughly enjoyable day on the water with Alex and his crew.
    Tally for the day was down on their last trip, but still a good 60-70 fish boated.

    Cheers lads and see you in a couple of weeks.

    The tides are massive now until Friday so a couple of days off now.
    Friday’s trip is back out to the same grounds and if anyone wants to join us we just have two places left for then.
    We also have spaces next weekend.

    Cheers
    Rich
