Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Another fine day at sea yesterday for the Shy-Torque team.
Because the more inshore marks aren’t really producing much at present, the vote was to steam offshore again.
First stop, a nice big wreck, some 23 miles from port where instantly the lads were pulling out the fish.
The fishing continued for a steady couple of hours with drifts of up to 6 fish for the first half dozen passes. A great start with over 40 fish off that one!
As the tide eased a bit the fishing slowed up so we steamed another 2.5 miles to one of my favourite offshore wrecks. Rubbish!
Around a half a dozen more off that one that’s all. Ah well, that’s the way it goes.
We moved back inshore to drop on our final wreck of the day where the lads managed another 10 or so fish.
Mark Armitage from Holmfirth (pictured) was on his maiden sea fishing trip and had a great start to his new hobby with a half dozen lovely fish, his best going second heaviest on the boat. A lovely Codling of 7lb 3oz.
Rob Waterworth from Bradford took our heaviest on the boat, a nice Ling of 7lb 12oz which is currently in 2nd place overall in the competition.
His fish is currently leading our fish of the month too where the winner will get a free trip.
Today is the last day of the competition so we’ll be trying our best to bag the winner and the £1000.00 first prize.
Good luck to one and all.
