    Report on-board Supreme

    Fantastic weather this week with todays trip being a species hunt for the lads .
    From the start of the trip it was Gurnard City three types Tub , Grey and Red with over 120 landed during the day with some nice specimens caught .
    A first for a few years was a small Turbot 2 lb but a Turbot is a Turbot no matter what the size well done Alan .
    Best laugh of the day was for Paul who caught a Tompot blenny but while getting ready to have a photo with it he was bitten on the finger :)
    Cracking group of lads who are welcome anytime on Supreme.

  • 05/08/2012 Fishing Report by Ray Martin on PLAN B (Southend-On-Sea, Essex)

    Report on-board PLAN B

    Back home from my holidays now after 3 weeks away, was hoping the weather had improved.. it hasn't. Got both Saturday and Sunday in and had a mixed bag of results. The weed proved a problem in my usual marks so had to move around a lot to avoid it, but the fish came in reasonable numbers. Double figure fish came both days with some very nice skate and hounds.

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Another cracking days fishing aboard the boat today with a mixed group of lads from as far afield as Chesterfield and Newcastle.

    The day started with some hectic mackerel fishing at the bell. Enough to supply the bait rigs all day long after just one drift!! Good to see the bait flying on board as quickly as that again. Long may it last.

    We started the bottom fishing on a patch of ground just 4 miles East of the piers with a good start. Five fish to 10lb on the first drift. Sadly each drift after that went downhill as the tide strengthened and the drift was up to 1.7 knots.

    After a little deliberation we decided to have a very steady steam to a group of wrecks some 14 miles off shore giving the tide time to slow a bit. Bingo!! With a good load of mackerel processed for the kill on the bait traces we started hammering the fish out. Granted, 80% were of the ling variety but what a cracking 3 hours sport with fish to just over 14lbs. Pete Tamms from Leeds did have what looked like a belting fish on but sadly lost it!! Ah well maybe to be captured by tomorrows team.

    Pictured is Dr Ash Bandela from Newcastle with the best fish today at just over 15lbs.

    Summers here lads!! Come and enjoy some fantastic sport at Whitby.

    Report on-board Mistress

    Today we had a mixed party of lads, some novices thrown into the group too.

    we started out ta the bell bouy jigging mackerel for bait, seeing as we're on neap tides again wrecking was the order of the day. Plenty of mackerel about so two drifts saw us with enough bait to get started.

    We were rifting quite quickly to start with so fishing was slow, as soon as the drift slowed a point or two of a knot the fish came on to feed!
    The fishing wasnt hectic today, but we saw some nice fish non the less.
    the biggest Ling was 15lb, Cod to 10lb. we had a number of Ling over 10lb again today.

    We had a young novice, Peter, with us today he caught a couple of really nice fish to take hoem the best being a Ling around 7lb in weight, dad was pleased as punch, its always good to see the youngsters getting amoungst the fish! well done mate.

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    August has started really well for us here at Whitby both with the weather and with the fishing.

    Yesterday and today we have been shark fishing on the Shy-Torque, sadly with no fish showing again.

    A mate of mine told me yesterday that the Icelandic fleet have taken some 500,000 tonnes of mackerel from the sea up there over the last 3 months. This has to have a massive impact on the way the sharks are feeding and is probably the main reason we have yet to boat one this year. That is one Hell of a lot of fish!!!!

    The lads have however have had some good fishing on the ground whilst waiting for the big boy with plenty of small codling to 7lbs and an odd half decent ling popping up, the best going a shade over 14lbs for Peter Bloom from Pickering.

    The weather is set to stay settled for the next few days here and with the tides falling to neaps again from tomorrow we should be seeing some good sport.

    Pictured is Peter Bloom who looks after the seal and sea lions at Flamingo Land theme park.
    His personal best to date at 14lb 3oz.

    Tight lines
    Rich.

    Report on-board Mistress

    Another drop in tides again today saw us wrecking all day. We travelled a bit further offshore with the lads from Hull.

    The drift was around 1.6 knots to start with, once we had arrived at our mark. We took fish from the off today, with hardly any blank drifts. The fishing remained steady until slack water and it went off a bit.

    The lads had already graced the deck with some cracking fish, Ling to 17lb to Steve who also had two others into double figures plus a box of smaller fish to himself.
    Craig the organiser, managed half a box of fish with Cod approaching double figures, and Pollock to 8lb or so.
    The other lads managed some respectable fish too taking a number of Ling over 10lb.
    I wet a line too today and took Pollock and Cod on rhubabrd and custard sidewinders.

    Pictured is Steve with his two best fish of the day
