A good day with clearing water. As always Rich worked his socks off to put us on fish and didn't make the mistake of heading for the horizon when there were feeding fish and clear water closer to home. More fishing time gave room for fishing a variety of lures- shads, jellies and Redgill all worked for me.
Skippers Reponse: Nice to see you back aboard again Ian, but your fascination with rubber has me a bit worried! Thanks for a great review and I'm sure we'll see you again soon, best wishes, Rich
A good day with clearing water
Well what can I say?? Made the long trip from down south to have a day fishing out of Whitby on the the "Mistress" and what a fabulous and most enjoyable day I had - In the very capable hands of Skipper Rich Cope we headed South to Robin Hoods Bay to some of the skipper's marks he had on his radar/sonar. The first thing that impressed me was the professionalism of Rich to get the boat lined up in exactly the right position in what can only be described as "precision parking". Bites were a bit slow to start with so in his determination to get some action the skipper upped anchor and set off to another mark. Every venue we went to we caught fish but it was one of those days when Mr Codling wasn't in the hungriest of moods but the action lasted all day which made for a fantastic trip. Rich was an total professional in everything he did for us and I can't thank him enough and I will definitely be up to Whitby again to go out on the "Mistress" If I were asked to describe the skipper Rich Cope it would be "A Fishing Fanatic". He will do anything go anywhere to catch that all important fish - Thanks for a great day out.
Skippers Reponse: Thanks for leaving a great review James, It was a pleasurable day in great company, I look forward to seeing you both again soon, best wishes, Rich
On a slow day for all the Whitby boats Rich gave his all and after much hard work got everyone onto a few fish. The bites were finnicky and the fish were very localised in tight pockets. I had a flurry of activity and got some decent codlings. Cheers Rich...you know we'll be back.
Skippers Reponse: Thanks for leaving a review again Ian, its very much appreciated! I look forward to seeing both Amanda and yourself again soon, best wishes, Rich
