    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Sorry I haven’t done a report over the last three days.
    That’s mainly due to the fact that there’s been nothing much to report on really.

    We had Ken Fusco and family on board Monday/Tuesday.
    Ken, Andy, Declan and Dave book the boat to themselves every year with us in the competitions.

    Monday we steamed off North to three or four wrecks North of Whitby out to 29 miles. Rubbish! 10 fish for the day!
    Declan did however win the daily prize of £50.00 with a Ling of 9lb 4oz.

    Tuesday was such that we had to stay more inshore and work marks closer to home as the breeze was to increase from the North throughout the day.
    Rubbish fishing again with just 8 fish to keep!
    Declan did get the daily £50.00 prize winner again though, with a whopping 5lb 2oz Ling!

    Thanks to Ken and the lads for their patience, understanding and support.
    They know the score and that it can’t always be a top drawer day.

    Yesterday’s team were a group of my most regular anglers who had decided to book the boat for a long trip.
    We weren’t in the competition as we sailed at 5.0am and returned late.

    We steamed offshore to some ground marks to start the day. Rubbish again with 15 fish or so boated.
    Out to the first wreck of the day it was then.
    1 fish! OMG!
    The second wreck did produce slightly more fish with 8 boated but still rubbish!!
    The third stop was on a tiny bit of scrap 38 miles off.
    We were hoping and praying this would come up trumps but it didn’t! Rubbish!!
    Just a dozen fish from it.
    My crewman Fergus did however pull a nice Ling from it though. Weighing in at 19lb 6oz, a P.B for him. Well done to him!

    Shame we weren’t in the competition as that fish would have jumped in to the lead on the board.
    Ah well that’s life! LOL!

    Thanks to everyone who have fished with us so far in the competition and we’ll see you all again soon.

    Cheers and tight lines.
    Rich.
