    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    It looks like yesterday was the last day for us at sea for a while, with predicted Northerlies and big swells all this coming week.

    The Uptiding hasn’t really taken off properly yet for us this season, but after this next week things will hopefully improve.

    We had a mixed group on yesterday with regular lads and some newcomers too.

    The day was slow from start to finish to be honest with just a couple of pulses of fish running through in the various spots we tried.

    Sammy the seal pestered us right from the off which didn’t help us with some fish being taken by him on the way up resulting in just a head left on the hook!

    A short move South after the change of tide at 10.30am saw a slight improvement with a couple of slightly better fish too.

    Daniel Evans from Doncaster taking the best fish of the day at 7lb 9oz, a bonny Codling.

    Jack Pike and Connor, both from nearby Pickering sailed with us for the first time and really enjoyed their day.
    Connor’s first ever boat trip too.
    They both managed a few Codling between them which they were really pleased with.

    The lads and me persevered until 3.30pm chucking everything we had at the fish, which resulted in a mere couple of dozen landed on the boat.
    A couple of lobsters were netted too which were berried females and were safely returned to the water.

    Thanks for your continued support lads and hopefully see you again after this spell of wintery weather has passed.

    (Xmas Uptiding Competition on the boat 15th - 22nd December)

    Cheers for now,
    Rich.
