    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    15.05.2015.

    A fabulous change in fortunes from the day before for the lads on the boat. A perfect flat calm morning welcoming us.

    Chris Parkin and his 7 mates from Leeds joined the boat for the usual 7.0am start.

    7 out of the 8 were relatively new to the game so an exercise in ground fishing was definately in order to start the day. A 20 minute steam to the first mark arriving at 7.30am

    We dropped back on the ground on the 5 mile where we've been seeing some exceptional fishing of late. The first drift was very encouraging indeed with every rod taking fish. Nothing big really with cod to around the 7lb mark.

    The next time I looked at the clock it was turning 1.30pm. The cod had been coming on board steadily all morning and the boxes were starting to overflow!!!

    At 2.0pm Chris the organiser decided that they had all caught enough and we decided on an early finish returning to port at 2.30pm to begin the filleting.

    The lads did a fish count as I filleted and returned a figure of 143!!!! Not a bad mornings sport at all !!

    The boys are pictured.

    Tight lines as ever
    Rich.
