Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Our regular crew of Chinese lads, Alex Choy and his mates joined us yesterday for their fourth trip of the season.
The lads just love to fish the distant grounds in search of the Acadian redfish.
So far this year they have dropped lucky with the weather and the fish and yesterday was just the same for them. Flat calm and plenty of them.
I would guesstimate around thirty Acadian were boated, coming onboard in two’s at one point.
The light rods and light traces with smaller hooks, tipped off with small pieces of bait, are ideal for this style of fishing.
Alex was targeting them all day and on occasion pulled a few Codling up too and also landed a nice Ling of 8lb 8oz.
I honestly didn’t think he would get it to the surface on such light gear, but fair play to him, he played it well and was rewarded. One hell of a scrap on
Even though we were working back side of twenty miles, the tide was still running harshly and made things a bit tricky on the top of the tide but the boys kept working hard and were rewarded for their efforts.
Baited rigs worked the best today but a few fish also fell to the shads.
I’m away to Norway for a weeks fishing after tomorrow’s trip lads. Hopefully the weather stays like this for you all whilst Fergus and me are away and you have success wherever you’re fishing.
Cheers for now,
Rich
