    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Nothing to shout home about on yesterday’s trip really.

    We used the flood tide to start the day off on three offshore wrecks out on the 18 mile stream. Very little action at all with just a dozen or so Codling from those.
    A U-turn it was then and we marched back towards the 9 mile marks, stopping on a tiny bit of scrap on the way. A half dozen Codling coming from that one.

    The 9 mile is usually good for saving the day if things are slow elsewhere as the area is so vast. Not so yesterday!
    We worked it until close of play and took just 20 or so more fish from there.

    The amount of juvenile Haddock has opened our our eyes on the last few trips and yesterday was no exception. A dozen caught in the last hour with just a couple of keepers from them.

    All in all a beautiful day at sea with gorgeous flat calm conditions and great banter! Around 35 fish for the day to keep with nothing big to challenge Henry’s 10lb 3oz Cod leading the fish of the month.

    My old friend Bill Barraclough joined us again too after a spell of illness over the winter period. Great to see him back to full fitness again and have him back onboard.

    A few days off for us now with a short break away for a mates wedding.
    Any enquiries through email, WhatsApp or text this next week please.

    Cheers for now and keep a tight line!
