    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Two day report on the Shy-Torque III.

    Thursday didn’t fish very well at all for the guys on the boat in all honesty.

    We re-ran our route we took the day before, as we’d had such a great day, but sadly the little buggers weren’t playing for us.
    We finished Thursday’s trip off on a little wreck just 2.3 miles from shore and had our best fishing there to be fair.
    We did only take 8 Codling from it but considering what we had before this, it was good!!

    Yesterday I chose to run back in the direction we’d finished off the day before and wreck hopped for the first couple of hours.

    On the first bit of scrap, I went straight into a fish on the shad and two other lads hooked up straight away too.
    20 winds off the bottom and a seal grabbed my fish, taking it clean off the hook in one.
    10 seconds after this, Graham Soloman’s fish was attacked by the beastie and his came up with just a head and entrails!

    Moving on then!!

    The next wreck was just 3/4 mile away to the North.
    First drift, one fish boated.
    Second drift, 2 fish on and both pinched by a seal!!
    Long story short, the same f*****g seal followed us for 2 hours and killed our morning!

    I moved the boat to a completely different sector to get away from it, hoping to find a seal free area and luckily for us we managed to find a few nice fish on a strip of ground with no seal harassment.

    The lads plucked away nicely for a couple of hours and ended up with some nice Codling to just under 9lb and Ling to just over 10lb.
    Around 30 fish from that ground making for an enjoyable bit of fishing to save the day.

    A great mixed group of lads who were pleased with the day in the end.
    See you again soon lads.

    Cheers for now,
    Rich
