    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    If any of you intrepid anglers out there have ever thought about trying a spot of shark fishing then you could be doing yourselves a massive favour by choosing the fantastic port of Whitby in North Yorkshire. The targeted sharks we on the Shy-Torque III are aiming to catch are the porbeagles which mainly run off here from May through to the end of October. The heaviest porbeagles we have boated to press here off Whitby were both caught this year and one is pictured here. They were both nudging the 300lb mark!!! The lucky anglers who boated them were John Wilcock from Bradford and Dave Brown ( picture ) from Hull. Both fish took well over an hour to land !! We also reckon we had even bigger shark than this on the line this year. One of the " Ones that got away " actually bending the hook almost straight !! Puts paid to the idea that you have to go abroad to experience BIG GAME FISHING !!! If you want to have a go at these magnificent fish next year drop me a line or an Email.
