    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Today was a complete contrast on yesterdays fishing on the Shy-Torque. After the struggle we endured yesterday working on the inshore marks we decided that a trip to the "wall" was definately in order.

    We couldn't have wished for better conditions for the cruise out there. A beautiful calm morning with a cracking sun rise thrown in.

    We were greeted by a pair of Minke whales on arrival which was superb for the lads to see!!

    The 1st ridge of ground we stopped on was to be the provider of a tremendous amount of fish for the lads. We never had to move from it all day which was a bonus. Everyone on board had 15 cod plus and some of the lads had half a dozen ling to add to them.

    Dermot Faye from Bedale had a nice little wolf fish of 4lb for the pot. Nice eating too!

    The average size of the cod today were around the 5-6lb mark with a good few fish to the 10lb mark too. A few of the ling managed to nudge the scales to 9lb. Not the monsters of late on the boat but still nice to see.

    A very enjoyable day for all today including myself !!

    Pictured is Craig Small from Barnsley with a couple of his better fish of the day.
