    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Sadly we have just seen the end of another cracking summer angling festival here at Whitby. After losing the 1st two days to severe Northerly storms we managed to get the remaining 21 days of the competition in, some of the days a little breezy though!! We on the Shy-Torque didn't manage to take the winning fish this year however we did manage to get what was classed amongst the majority of anglers over the 3 weeks to be the best fish caught in the competition. The leading cod up until the last couple of days was 15lb. My old mate Guy Wrightson fished with us for the last week and on Thursday 8th managed to capture this fine beasty of 17lb 5.5oz on a swim shad. We had to travel to a wreck some 39 miles from Whitby to find him but it was worth it in the end. Guy is pictured here with his fish with which he will receive £500.00 from the Whitby Charter Skippers Association at our presentation night soon. Well done mate !!
