  Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl

  After a really enjoyable day species hunting yesterday; today we had a day on the wrecks. The anglers were a mixed group with wildly differing angling experience; from first time boat fishing, to hundreds of days spent at sea! With a dinky 4.4m tide and light winds forecast, I hoped we could get the full day in on the wrecks.
  
  With the water starting to clear up a bit, I chose to try some of the inshore wrecks first and see if any new residents had arrived. If this failed I planned to push out a bit further, as I don’t like to run out a long way unnecessarily.
  
  After a bit of instruction for the lads on my hire tackle and a half hour steam, we dropped onto the first wreck of the day. Most lads went in with a Squid bait on a muppet trace start off with. Thankfully it took less than a minute before a couple of rods were in and a couple of Codling were pulled aboard. To summarise a bit; the first wreck fished well for an hour with multiple fish each run. Steve Mason taking the best Codling at 6lb 8oz and everyone getting off the mark.
  
  Once sport slowed a little we moved on to the next wreck (and that was the pattern of the day). The stamp of Codling were nice today, with most fish in the 3-4lb range and some lovely bright white fish in amongst the wreck residents. Really positive signs at last. We wreck hopped all day, some were more productive than others, but they all did fish.
  
  Two anglers are definitely worthy of mention today. Antanas Jarosius was on my hire tackle and his first time wrecking at Whitby. I showed him what to do once and he fished like a pro all day. I was genuinely impressed with his consistency. He put together a lovely box of fish and on the second wreck of the day took a beautiful Cod of 11lb 8oz….top angling.
  
  Ian Kellock is part of the furniture on Sea Urchin and he had a really decent day, fishing mainly with Shads. It’s great to see that when Ian gets a few, other anglers are willing to give them a try.
  Today was the best days wrecking to date this year, with everyone getting a few and some nice fish amongst them.
  
  The lads were all brilliant company and I thoroughly enjoyed it myself. Massive well done to everyone.
