    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Oh, how I love it when the lads decide to have a sweep aboard the boat. It always seems to generate a little bit more excitement than normal. That extra effort seems to be given from each and every angler and today was no exception! With each man putting a "fiver" in the pot there was a very nice £45.00 on offer today.
    The lads today were from as far afield as Leicester and Bulgaria!!

    The day started really slow with the first 3 marks producing just 3 or 4 fish. After another hour or so trying more marks inside with little else coming aboard, we decided to push off to a wreck 18 miles off shore.

    Good move! We arrived at the wreck at around 11a.m and by 2p.m we had just about exhausted it after taking around 50 fish off it. The best fish of the day falling to my rod, and whey hey, the lads had invited me into the sweep too. Most unusual!! Nearly all the fish had fallen to the blue "Sidewinder" shads indicating the water was a lot clearer offshore than inshore.

    Thanks for a great days entertainment lads and hope to see you all again real soon.

    Pictured is skipper Rich with the sweep winning fish of 14lbs.
