    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    The WCSA Uptiding Competition has just ended here in Whitby.

    The event was hindered for the first 6 days with moderate to fresh NE winds blowing, meaning the boats couldn’t take to sea.
    We did manage to salvage three days at the very end of the competition with some very cold angling!

    Friday fished ok for our three lads on board (one of those being my youngest lad, Charlie)
    Christian Harrisons fishing the best with 15 Codling himself.
    Around 30 fish in total for the day.

    Saturday and Sunday however slowed up a lot and didn’t produce much at all.

    No winning fish for our lads in this one, but hopefully everyone had a good time albeit being Baltic cold!!

    I’d like to thank everyone for booking with us in this competition, which is a first for the association.

    Apologies to those who we couldn’t get to sea because of the weather. Sadly, we can’t control the weather.

    There was a good amount of interest in this competition right from first advertisement, so I reckon it will be happening again next year. If it does, let’s pray for some better weather.

    Well done to Rich Cope on the Mistress on his win in the competition with a nice Ling of 8lb 9oz.
    His angler, Rob Gillings, will take a very nice £1000.00 for his winning fish which is very timely for the Xmas holidays.

    Cheers for now,
    Rich
