    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Paul Hough and his mates Daniel and Andy booked the boat for themselves today.

    Paul had asked me last year if I would consider taking him out to some of the wrecks we used to work commercially 30+ years ago.

    Luckily for them the weather fell perfectly for them and we sailed at 5.0am on a flat calmer.

    First stop was a small wreck 30 miles North of the harbour. One fish! Oh shit!
    On to another one three miles further on. Two fish! Oh f***!!!

    We trotted South then to another bit of scrap that isn’t charted or plotted. Bingo!
    At last some fish! Not bundles, but a steady picking for an hour so resulting in a full box between the three of them.

    It’s amazing what a morale booster it is when the fish start coming steady.

    We ended the day on a short strip of ground 35 miles off where the lads took another box of fish and I managed a box myself. It fished the best out of all the marks. Should’ve gone there first!! Who knew!

    That’s one off Paul’s bucket list and I’m really pleased we managed to save the day on the last two marks.

    Thanks very much for your company lads and hopefully we’ll see you again next year for another long trip.

    Cheers.
    Rich
