    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Well, that’s yet another Summer angling competition over here at Whitby.

    Firstly I’d like to congratulate my old mate John Wilford, skipper of the charter boat 2 Dogs on his win in this year’s event.

    John’s angler Peter O’Donnell from Hull caught a cracking Ling of 16lb 12oz early in the competition which held out to the end and bagged him the top prize of £1000.00 plus his £50.00 Daily Cash prize.
    Peter also gets a 2 night stay at the Middle Earth Tavern. Well done to him!!

    Our results personally weren’t too bad to be fair.
    Alan Brown from Blackburn took 3rd place overall on the Shy-Torque III which won him £500.00 plus a 2 night stay at the Middle Earth Tavern. His fish also wins him a free trip on our boat for the heaviest fish on the boat in June. Well done to him!

    Edward Davies took the junior prize on the Shy-Torque III with a Codling of 5lb 1/2oz.
    His fish wins him a nice £200.00
    More new tackle being bought there I reckon. Well done to you Ted!!

    All in all a competition with very mixed weather this year which did impede us, with 11 days of cancellations!
    I’m sure a lot more fish would have been taken to the scales had we got out more, but that’s the great British weather for you!

    I’d like to thank all our sponsors in the event this year too, without who, we wouldn’t be able to host these great competitions. Cheers.

    Also, a big thank you to all those who had a go this year. If you weren’t lucky enough to bag a winning fish in this competition, there is always next year’s, or you could have a go in our late Summer competition in September which starts on Saturday 9th September and runs for a fortnight. Some lovely prizes to be had in that one too!

    Cheers for now,
    Rich
