Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Blimey! Two days on the trot!!
Most unusual this year.
Yesterday we had a good mixed group of lads on board, six of them regular Shy-Torque customers and two pairs of newcomers who were made most welcome aboard the boat.
We gathered the bait for the day with a steady 10 minutes Mackerelling and headed out NE to a couple of the more offshore wrecks which, like yesterday’s, hadn’t been touched for over a week.
The first one kept us busy for a nice steady couple of hours or so until at slack water, things slowed up and the fish went off the feed. 30-35 keepers though, which was a decent enough start for the lads.
Everything falling to the fresh Mackerel and squid.
We had a short move then to the next bit of scrap which to be fair, only chucked around 4 fish out.
Back to the first one then for the start of the flood tide and with the breeze holding the boat off it nicely, we picked another 8 fish from it.
By this time the pesky SE breeze was drawing down and we decided to finish off on a couple of inshore marks where, on the second drift, Ivan Davey hooked into something a bit better. A Ling which was nudging around 14lbs which we thought might have had a chance for the daily prize.
It missed by about an ounce at the weigh-in!
Unlucky Ivan!
Another nice day on the water with the lads and a real pleasure meeting Shaun and Wayne from Nottingham and Ed and Adam from Scarborough.
Hopefully see you all again soon.
Cheers for now,
Rich.
