    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    After a slow start on a couple of offshore wrecks this morning and only 4 fish boated, we decided to focus a bit a ground/reef fishing for a change.

    Tides at present are perfect for the scrap to be fair, but the fish weren’t playing for us on them.

    It was a wise move to try the ground marks as they fished really quite well.
    The shads were taking a good number of the smaller fish but the baited rigs were taking much stronger fish.

    Local laddy, Fergus Powell landed a lovely Ling of 11lb 8oz on a 12-20lb class Ugly Stick. Great sport for him with that one!!
    Mark Errington from Darlington taking the best Cod of the day at 9lb 12oz.
    My old mate Derek Wiggins from Leeds taking a lovely 12 fish for himself. His best, a nice Ling of 11lb.
    Rob Waterworth from Bradford had a nice day on the Codling too boating 11 keepers for himself plus other bits. Rob was leading the Shy-Torque “fish of the month” with a 7lb 12oz Ling until today. We are giving a free trip to the person who lands the heaviest fish in any month up to and including October.

    Craig Booth from Leeds pipped him today with a nice Ling of 12lb 12oz and wins himself a free trip as we are cancelling tomorrows trip.
    Well done to him.

    Room on Tuesday and Wednesday next week.

    All in all a great day (apart from the cold!) and thanks for the good company chaps.

    Cheers for now,
    Rich
