  • 02/11/2021 Fishing Report by Andy Savage on Sea Urchin IIl (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl

    It’s certainly been a while since we’ve been able to do a catch report. The weather has kept us in the harbour for most of the last six weeks, resulting in lots of cancelled trips. We did manage to get a run out yesterday which was great after the long lay off. We had a good bunch of lads on, who were great company.

    With no mackerel left to find, we started the day off on a wreck at 9 miles. Fishing with either bait traces consisting of a muppet and pennel arrangement, or Hokkai’s baited with squid saw a couple of fish each drift. Mainly small Codling around the 2lb mark. Ken Wood pinched a better one around 5lb, as did Steve Cooper.

    Alan Knaggs had a go with a red and black jellyworm and pinched a Pollock well up off the bottom. Ian Kellock took the biggest fish of the day (#standard), a Ling of around 6lb.
    Once the flood tide got away we moved onto rough ground for the remainder of the day and found odd pockets of fish. It was far from easy fishing and good angling was definitely rewarded.

    Everyone got something to take home for tea, which is always the aim on the trickier days. Hopefully we’ll get a few more breaks in the weather to get back out there again.
