    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    Had the place to ourselves today, mostly due to the 40mph winds! Lost previous day due to weather becoming ridiculous for this time of year everything is at least a month behind. Had to hide up inshore as strong tides today, within minutes fish coming aboard usual doggies and a lovely surprise for Carl with a sole normally a nocturnal fish nice to see. Moved onto a skate mark to end the flood resulting in just one around 5lb,was hoping to stay for the first run but the wind proved too much so moved again North to hide up. Plenty of dogs again, few flats, on the ebb , had to shift again to our final position the weather knocking us sidewards at anchor! Positioned ourselves in a little alley i found last year proved to pay off with some lovely smoothounds coming in some nice keepers around the 6lb mark average , usual dogs and odd flatty. Was a reasonable day for the conditions well done to the lads few firstimers on High Flyer,thanks for sticking it lads.
    Thanks to John from Milton Keynes,Mike from Hull, Adam and Scott pictured here all first timers onboard today, and regulars Carl,Brian,Derek,James,and Dave , much appreciated men. All the best. Jon.

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    19.06.2013.

    Today we had a team of "newbies" on the boat.

    James Astle and his team from Doncaster had never fished from Whitby before ( or ever done any sea fishing before )

    We had the boat prepped and all their gear ready for their arrival at 7.0a.m. James asked if I could advise and teach them the ropes which, as always, I did for the beginners.

    I sharp had them into shape and on the first mark of the day they were knocking cod and ling out for fun!!
    Nothing much taking on the artificials this particular day but plenty on the Hokkai rigs which we tipped off with the squid.

    James was asking about the shark fishing we do on the boat and is going to book a trip for them, after seeing the dozens of pictures of past fish we've had. Looking forward to teaching them a bit about that too !!!

    James and his lads are pictured with some of their catch.

    Rich Ward.

    Report on-board Mistress

    We have been seeing some nice fish again here at Whitby during the last month.

    We also had our 1st EVER sharking trip after seeing a rather large Porgie swimming by the boat a few weeks back. Although we never landed the shark we hooked up to, we had a good look at it as it rolled on the surface near the boat then stripped some 250 yards of line before parting company with us! it looked to be well over 6ft long! We than had a further 2 runs before setting off for home. The fella who booked is a regular angler with me and has rebooked and is very eager for another go at them next month - watch this space!

    The wrecking is throwing out a few better fish and we have seen a few into double figure this month, I think our best fish though is a cracking 8lb cat caught on the 21st of this month. It was the 2nd one caught by us this week. The 8lber is a new Mistress best, Phil the captor wasnt keen to take it home so I Kindly offered to take it!

    Phil with His Cat!

    21 Jun 2013 by G Derham

    Report on-board Eastern Promise 2

    It started as just another days fishing. Met office forecast was not brilliant but ok, we said good morning to Derek at about 07.00 and soon after we were heading out, just jogging along on tick over and were soon about 15 miles off, the wind turbines came and went and after about 45 minutes we dropped anchor. First fish was soon caught by the Master Thatcher James, a doggie so he gets a pound coin from each angler. A steady flow of fish followed Roker, Smoothounds and of course Doggies everybody was very happy and pulling each other’s leg, like you do. I asked Derek if there were any Mackerel about he said no (he tells you straight) so I put feathers on another rod and played about until I got bored no Mackerel here . But what’s this it’s a cup of that lovely tea coming out of the wheelhouse, fish are still coming everyone still laughing , leg’s are getting longer after about 3 hours (still catching fish) Derek said do you fancy a move as they are catching more fish closer in we said ok if you like, so the anchor came up and off we set, and we were off like a Scrambled Tornado Jet down the runway, we took our hats off so not to lose them, Then I thought he’s going the wrong way we were heading further out and out we went (this has to be paid for fuel and time you see but he knows we don’t mind) I didn’t ask as I knew he had something up his sleeve and not just his arm, after about another 7 or 8 miles the rev’s started to drop and we started going round and round in circles, I looked at the sounder and said to Derek is that a shoal of Mackerel he said no more like Whitebait, the anchor was dropped and the baits went over the side more Smoothounds, doggies more tea everybody happy. This is getting good plenty of fish a few hours went by then another very short move and all hell broke out We hit Bass returned about 20 and kept 35. (The Bass were spitting out Whitebait.) What a Fantastic day we also took Mackerel home. Where we, I know as Derek showed me on the plotter but it’s not for me to say as other skippers will read this so if you want to know more you will have to book the boat. THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH DEREK See you in July.
    Ps. Mark got the Fivers for the biggest fish a Roker.
