    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    The last day off for the Shy-Torque was on Friday. We had a regular crew of well seasoned anglers on board who were happy to give it a go on what was something of a 50/50 forecast but was always a decreasing one.

    The morning greeted us with a bit of a NW breeze, but nothing we hadn't all put away before and once we had got in to the deeper waters a couple of miles behind the bell bouy, the conditions were getting better all the time.

    We pushed out to the 7 mile reefs to start the day where the lads managed around 10 or so fish in the first half hour or so. We then decided to move out to the 9 mile reefs and found the fishing to be much better . In total for the day the group of 6 managed a combined 60 plus fish. Another mixed selection with cod to 7lb and ling to a shade under 13lbs. Pat Armstrong from Cayton Bay just south of Whitby landing the heaviest fish of ther day.

    The very happy crew are pictured.

    LOOK LOOK The Shy-Torque will be doing "UPTIDING" trips or (inshore trips at anchor) this year over the winter months on the bigger tides. The price per angler will be £35.00 for the day and this includes hot drinks all day on every trip. Don't forget we have the only boat in Whitby with a heated anglers cabin where everyone can be seated if needs be, on those colder days!!!
    We will sail with a minimum of 2 anglers and a maximum of 6 anglers on these trips.

    The boat will of course still be available for the offshore trips too.

    For any info on any trips, give me a call direct to my mobile on 07733 233352 or email at richardward384@yahoo.co.uk
