    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    7.05.23

    With the lads all boarded for 6.45am yesterday we took the 7.0am bridge and headed out.

    We’d had a quick conflab pre sailing to discuss our options.

    The tides at present are running swift at 5.4m so the lads ended up voting for the offshore option as I figured the inshore marks would be tough going.
    We ran to the grounds at the back of the 20 mile stream. The fishing started out a bit slow to be fair but after an hour or so they started to come on the feed nicely.

    Four or five out of the group took a good half dozen fish with Cod to just over 9lb.
    A nice stamp of good fresh run Cod for the table.
    Unlike our last few trips where the better quality fish came up on the baited rigs, todays better fish came up on the artificials, Shads, Sidewinders etc.

    Daryll, Pete and young Fergus taking the best 3 Cod at 9lb 2oz, 8lb 12oz and 10lb dead.

    Tally for the day, around 40 odd keepers and a good number of “chuck backs”

    Because Fergus works as crew, he can’t enter the monthly heaviest fish of the month competition on the boat where we’re giving a free trip away each month!! He was a few ounces short anyway!
    Henry from Leeds still leads this months with a Cod just over 10lbs.

    All in all a great day at sea with smashing company. Shame it was pea soup fog all day but you can’t have it all eh!

    Cheers for now and keep a tight line.
