    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    After due deliberation, we decided to give it a go yesterday.

    There was a NW swell running which made the run out a very steady one.

    First stop was the 3 mile area to see if the Mackerel were still running after a week off for the big Spring tides and they were there all right. Strings of them and enough in one drift to give us the fresh bait for the day!

    Our next move was to some ground on the 5 mile and we picked a few Codling up there. Baited rigs better than the artificial lures there for sure.

    Our next stop was a short strip of ground on the 7 mile where we picked away on the Codling for a few hours. The fish falling to the Shads there too, indicating the water was a lot clearer a few more miles out.
    Good sport.

    There were a couple of green bellies on board today, but as I always do, if some are feeling queasy and fall to the old “mal de mer” I always give them some fish which my crewman Fergus and I catch.

    Tally for the day, around 35 keepers, which, in challenging conditions at times was a fair result.

    Mark Konowski taking the best bag. 8 nice fish home with him.

    Cheers lads,
    Rich
