Fishing Report by Andy Savage
on Sea Urchin IIl (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
Another really enjoyable day out on Sea Urchin today. The tides are still around 5m so it would be another mixed days fishing of ground and wrecks. I was a little wary of what the weather would be like, as the forecast gave 11-13mph SW winds, which could potentially cause us some problems.
We did the Mackerel bash in about 15 minutes today, it was string after string, then we dropped onto the rough ground at three miles to see how that looked.
Just as we arrived a weather front pushed through and a stiff breeze had us flying along for half an hour with the lines streaming back. Despite that, we still managed to find a few fish. Marek Kawka having the biggest with a 7lb Ling on a speed jig. The wind dropped away and we spent the next hour running different lines and a mixture of Codling, Haddock and Ling came up to mainly baited Hokkai’s.
As the action slowed we ran out to the five mile ground, to hopefully have a go on a wreck or two as the tide eased. Wrong!! Another squall pushed through and the lines streamed again. The three drifts we did produced very little, so with the wind still blowing I took us out another couple of miles, resigned to not getting on a wreck. As we arrived, typically the wind dropped away, so we cracked on to a wreck a couple of miles away.
It was literally slack water when we arrived and thankfully we found a few fish of a better size. Dave Worsfold had the biggest Cod of the day with a plump 8lb 8oz fish. Charlie Hewitt took a Ling of a similar size and there were quite a few 3-4lb Codling which are ideal for the table. Once the Ebb Tide got away, we had an hour on the nine mile ground for some small Haddock and Codling, then ran back into the seven mile ground to finish.
We had a decent drift line and pleasingly had a really good last half hour, with some nice size Codling coming up. Charlie Hewitt definitely deserves a mention as he spent almost all day fishing the Shads and along with catching consistently, he took a lovely brace of five pound Codling to end with. Top angling Charlie.
Thanks to everyone for being such great company, I really enjoyed having you all aboardView Boats Page
