    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    A welcome return back to sea yesterday after yet another lengthy spell off.

    My old mate Simon England joined us to try for some Xmas Cod along with Alan Sutcliffe, Barry, Francis and Dave.

    The day wasn’t hectic by any stretch, but a few fish were boated wherever we stopped.
    No big fish to count, but some really nice plump Codling to just short of 5lbs.

    The key to a “hopefully” successful day is always down to the bait quality and Simon always makes sure the best of baits are bought including (when available) crab cart/wings.
    He had these with him yesterday and without a shadow of doubt he out-fished everyone on board with around 15 fish boated.
    A few of those were returned safely and he left with 9 nice fish to just under 5lbs for the table.

    Count for the day, around 25 keepers with the usual juveniles safely returned.

    An unusual fish for the hook in these waters too with Dave landing a small Thornback ray. Nice to see for a change!

    Young Fergus sadly missed yesterday’s trip as he lost his Grandma a few days ago.
    Our thoughts and condolences go to to him and all his family.

    Cheers for now,
    Rich.
