Report on-board Mistress
1st day back at sea today for 2024.
View Boats Page
Having seen recent reports from the other local skippers, I had a feeling it was going to be hard work. It was!
As always we moved plenty hitting some of my favourite marks, litterally taking one or two a mark before moving on, eventually as the flood bent through later in the trip, we managed a few small flurries of fish.
Mistress regular Rob from york get the best 2 fish of the day both bouncing 7½/8lb on the boat scales, his mate Dan got another nice fish 5/6lb. The rest of the catch was made up of the usual mops, pout, whiting and a solitary doggo.
A tough day but some nice fish to show for our efforts.
If you fancy a trip with me, give me a call on 07977 436 903 if you can't get through please leave a text or WhatsApp and I'll get back to you ASAP

Report on-board Galloper
Apologies for the lack of reports lately. We have had the boats out of the water and have been moving house so I haven't had time to deal with too many calls and messages. However now things are coming together and spring isn't far away looking at the daffodils that already flowering.
View Boats Page
With the weather generally being mild the fish have been feeding well most of the way through the winter. Our last trip produced plenty of whiting and dogfish with a few dabs and even a bass. The lads had one or two rays each and nick even managed a rocking (not too common from the boat). I have spaces this weekend offshore weather permitting from Sunday (03rd) onwards. I will try and get back on track with reports from now on as I know many of you have been asking.

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

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Our last trip out was the 3rd of this month so when the welcome window of great weather this weekend came along, it was great to be getting back out there!
View Boats Page
Ben Axworthy and his mate Steve joined us on Saturday along with regular angler John Wysoczanski and three new lads to the Shy-Torque, Clint,Terry and Pete from the London area.
The tides were running around the 5.3m range so we played around on the inshore Uptiding marks.
The fishing was far from easy to be fair with around 20 fish in total boated for the day.
A number of those undersized fish were returned, so all in all a bit of a struggle.
On Sunday our three new lads Clint, Steve and Terry had the boat booked out for themselves so plenty of room for them!
We dropped back to the similar area we worked on Saturday trying several more different spots.
Straight away the lads picked a few small Codling but it dried up quickly so I moved the boat a few hundred yards further North.
Again a few more fish were boated straight off but again it went quiet.
We moved a couple of miles further for the end of the ebb tide and didn’t find anything any better but surprisingly, over slack water, the fishing came on a bit better and the lads took around 10 fish there.
I was fairly confident that the fish would come back on the feed on the change of tide but they didn’t and the three lads only took another three or four.
Pete taking the best Codling at just over 4lbs.
The usual baits of black lugworm and squid and on Sunday, Fergus brought some crab cart which to be fair, didn’t really make much difference (it normally does!)
Fergus filleting around 25 fish for the lads on the way back to port, so a few nice fish dinners for the lads.
Another cracking couple of days with great lads, plenty of tea and coffee and excellent banter!
Next day out is on Wednesday this week so if you fancy a run out, drop me a message.
Cheers for now,
Rich

Fishing Report by Andy Savage
on Sea Urchin IIl (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
25 Feb 2024 by Andy Savage
Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
It’s been great to have another three days back at sea. The tides have been rising and over the weekend especially, the weather was fantastic. Very light winds in the main, with plenty of sunshine. I finally had the chance to get some of my regular anglers on, who I have cancelled countless times over the winter, so we had plenty to talk about and catch up on, which was great.
View Boats Page
Trying my best not to sound like a broken record; but in a similar vein to the last report, the actual fishing hasn’t been very good. We have fished plenty of different marks both North and South of Whitby, but haven’t had much consistency or a decent average stamp of Codling. Each day we struggled to find fish much over 4lb and although the fish we caught were mostly pristine fresh run fish, they didn’t appear to be moving through much. At most stops, we’d get a few initial fish, then it just died off and we’d have to move on to get a few more fish. As usual, Squid and Black Lugworm produced the majority of the bites, but Crab Cart did make the difference when it was hard going for the lads who had some with them.
I really think it’s worth mentioning that some of the less experienced “Uptiders” have made a few mistakes (despite advice to the contrary). The biggest one I see regularly is lads throwing their frozen bait straight into a bucket of water and leaving it in there all day. With very little water clarity in the winter, putting a scent trail in the tide is critical to getting bites. By immersing it in water all day, the scent is literally washed out of the bait, which really makes a huge difference to the overall end results.
With all that said; it’s been a really enjoyable few days for me and I’m really grateful for the support from the lads who’ve booked trips with me. Irrespective of the fishing, I will always try my best to give everyone a good day out. Cheers ladsUPCOMING INDIVIDUAL SPACES ONBOARD Sea Urchin IIl

With spring fast approaching we are kicking off the late winter targeting mainly conger eels on the inshore wrecks along side the rays. We’ve landed eels up to 25lb with some bigger beasts lost. Rays are slower than normal but still picking a few up. As the weather warms up we will start our hound fishing as the rays should also start coming up in numbers once the crab start peeling.2024 Diary is now open and available so please message or call for bookings and inquiry’s
