Uptiding is certainly producing the goods at the moment. Yesterday saw us uptiding on one of the favoured inshore marks of Sandsend and the fish were coming aboard thick and fast at one point. The lads we had on board were all amongst the fish from the off and were so pleased with their catch they made the following report on the Whitby Fishing Forum.
Hi all. Me my son and a couple of mates had a great days fishing on shy torque yesterday anchored up off sandend. Some were uptiding and some fished down tide all methods worked equally well with the best cod coming to squid on a flowing trace fished down tide.We used black lug / mussel and squid for bait. We left Whitby at eight am and we had caught 5 cod by nine O’Clock we caught steadily until the tide fell away. We only had a couple of cod over slack water but as the tide got away the fishing improved.We ended up with 30 cod to 9 1/2lb a couple of ling to 9lb with plenty of coalies and whiting to 2lb plus the unavoidable blegs all told a great day out. Roll on the Whitby inshore festival
