    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Last Mondays team of 5 chartered the boat for the day for an Uptiding trip.
    John Bidwell, Jeff, Trevor, Colin and Charlie travelled over 6 hours from Southend on sea and Norfolk to fish with us!
    The day was very slow to start out, with three moves on the Ebb tide resulting in around a half dozen fish landed.
    Over slack water we ran 3 miles further up the coast to a little spot I like which occasionally produces a few on the start of the flood tide.
    On arrival we were barely moving with a little of the slack remaining so the lads decided to have lunch and a cuppa and wait for the start of the flood.
    After a glass of Merlot, Jeff and Colin chucked in for a daft go and clicked a couple of Codling straight away.
    Hopefully a few more would show as the tide increased and sure enough, they did.
    Over last hour of fishing they managed to boat a further 25 fish which saved the day nicely.
    At one point John was getting a fish every throw which was encouraging.
    30 plus fish in total for the day, which was a marked improvement on the last couple of days.
    No big ones but a lovely day weather wise with some great conversations, stories and chuckles too!
    Trevor taking the best fish at 5lb 6oz and John taking the best bag.
    Great to meet you all lads and hopefully see you again soon.
    Cheers
    Rich
    I have room tomorrow (28th) and will sail with just 4 anglers for an Uptiding trip.
