    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Well, as the tides have lifted, the fishing has become more patchy day on day throughout this week for us.

    Yesterday we ran South to try some inshore marks where my mate had had a few the day prior.
    We didn’t see a fish!

    The tide had started rushing through on the ebb after half an hour on the first mark so we ran out a few miles to try a couple of wrecks to see if we could click a Pollack or two. Just four fish from these and as the drift speed increased to well over a knot things progressively became more difficult.

    Rough ground it was then until the tide slowed up a bit for us.
    The lads took just a half dozen to keep.

    When the tide eased back just after lunch, we dropped on three or four wrecks to finish the day. The baited Hokkai rigs taking a few small Ling and Codling and the Shads taking a few Codling too.

    If the weather had been wet and miserable I’d probably have been running for home a bit earlier but as it was a glorious, sunny, Summery day, we stuck it out to the end.

    No fish over four pounds for us yesterday but to be fair, I always reckon that Codling around that size are the best eating anyway.

    Not much work for young Fergus’s filleting knife, with around 20-25 fish to process.

    Cheers lads and hopefully we will see a bit better fishing next time on the smaller tides.

    Rich.
