    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    A lovely morning welcoming us yesterday for another run out in this year’s Spring competition.

    A full boat of good mates and regular anglers sailing with us to have a go for a bigger fish or two hopefully.

    The day started out well for us on the first wreck some 17 miles from the harbour.
    A steady picking of Codling and small Ling for the lads giving them some nice sport for a few hours.
    Nothing big though.

    We moved on to a smaller piece of scrap a couple of miles East for just a handful of of fish. Not so good there really, so on we marched to another wreck known personally to me as Bobs wreck.

    Named this way after my good friend Guy Wrightson’s Dad who used to fish with us years ago.
    Guy sadly lost his Dad whilst out fishing with us. He got the call with the sad news.
    His Dad gifted him with a beautiful Cod just over 17lb from the wreck that day.
    He looked to the sky and winked ��

    It didn’t produce much at all yesterday!!

    We mooched back towards shore to finish the day off and managed another 10 or so fish.

    Rob Moore from Selby taking our best fish on board (weight wise) A Ling of just over 7lbs which wasn’t a contender.

    Young Fergus filleted away on our return journey to port and reckoned the average per angler was 7/8 fish so numbers wise, a steady 60+ fish boated. Plenty around the 4-5lb mark. Not too bad.

    Thanks again to one and all for your support in what has been the worst start to any year I can remember in 40 years in the game.

    The competition ends this Sunday so we will having another good go at it then.

    Cheers for now
    Rich.
