    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    24.04.2018.

    Another competition win for the Shy-Torque III !!

    This years Spring angling competition has just ended here at Whitby. A good number of days were lost to poor weather and we personally only got to sea for 8 days out of the 2 weeks.

    Never the less, when the weather was on our side we managed to push off to some of the distant marks and were rewarded quite well on a few of the trips.

    The competition wasn't producing anything big to talk about for the first week with the majority of fish being landed averaging around the 5lb mark.

    One of my mates, Carl Farrar landed a ling which was nudging the 11lb mark which took the lead in the event and looked for some time like it was going to do the job and win the top prize of £1000.00

    Then, on the 20th April, we had perfect conditions and dropped lucky on an offshore mark we have that seldom gets worked. Richard Horobrov from Barnsley was fishing with us on the day and clicked a beautiful cod weighing in at just over 14lbs.
    When we got it back to the scales he weighed in at 13 lb 14 oz which meant he had taken the lead. The fish only had to hold for 2 more days and luckily for Richard it did!!

    A very nice £1000.00 first place prize plus his £50.00 for heaviest fish of the day making it a great competition for Richard and the Shy-Torque crew!

    I'd like to thank all those who fished with the Shy-Torque in this years Spring competition and hopefully we will see you all in the Summer one where we will be out to get our second win of the season!!
