September & October

Another season for Whitby Sea Anglers Association kicked off on the 26th September 2007.  The lads who turned out for this match were met by driving rain and gale forced northerly winds, in fact in terms of weather this night was probably one of the worst fishing nights of the whole season.  The fishing was non to clever too with the fish not yet in winter feeding mode catches were a little slow.  Glenn Kilpatrick started the season in the manner he had finished the last, winning this match with a single codling of 6 lb 12 oz.  The clubs newest junior Ryan Vasey marked his fishing debut with a rockling of 11 oz.  Ryan did what he managed to do on many occasions throughout the season - beating his dad and many of the clubs other senior members who failed to catch.  As the days shortened in October William Atkinson, Andrew Cass, Brian Harland, Dave Perrett & Phil Mead all fished well individual match wins.  The heaviest bag of the month belonged to Glenn Kilpatrick with a mixed bag of billet and pollack for 13 lb 02 oz.  Brian Harland landed the heaviest fish of the month, a fine cod of 5 lb 07 oz.

November - The Best Month by Far

November belonged to Brian Harland who smashed the clubs 3 hr match record with 7 fish for 40 lb 07 oz caught on the 14th of the month.  Club members looked on with envy at the scales as Brian removed 7 good codlings from his bag at the weigh in, the biggest also being the heaviest fish of the month at 8 lb 15 oz.  Brian later explained that the night could have been even better as 2 bigger fish snapped his main line whilst he was winding them in.  This tremendous catch from Brian meant he now had in excess of a 50 lb lead on the chasing pack and those behind were wondering how they could possibly keep pace with Brian who was in scintillating form.  Three other anglers also had big bags in November, but nothing to compare with Brain’s haul.  Denis Thompson had the second heaviest bag of the season with 8 fish for 27 lb 07 oz, Glenn Kilpatrick took the third heaviest bag with 6 fish for 27 lb 02 oz.  Rob Allison also managed 7 fish for 25 lb 01 oz.  On the 11th November junior member Ryan Vasey out fished his dad Mike and most of the senior club members when he returned to the scales with his new personal best fish, the heaviest codling of the night, weighing 5 lb 04 oz.  Monday the 26th November also saw something very special with veteran angler Paul Kilpatrick showing his class with an excellent catch whilst pleasure fishing on the west pier - a huge cod of 16 lb exactly (more to come on this one later).  James Gilpin and Ben Laws also managed match wins this month showing that on their day they are capable of beating the rest.

December

December which is so often the best month of the season really failed to live up to expectations.  Long calm periods, meant the  fishing was often tough.  Andrew Cass had the best night of the month and continues to be one of the clubs most improved anglers.  Andrew found 3 good cod for just short of 16 lb on a rather stormy and difficult night when many club anglers failed to catch at all.  Paul Kilpatrick continued to catch the better fish of the month with a cod of 7 lb.  William Atkinson and Dave Perrett had match wins as did Glenn Kilpatrick who was fishing consistently well.  With catches of cod and whiting throughout December Glenn had narrowed the gap between first and second to 12 lb by Christmas.  The clubs Christmas Match was fished on 23rd of the month and poor conditions were matched by equally catches.  Denis Thompson lifted the Christmas Cup with a single billet of 12 oz.  Andrew Cass came in second with a single fish of 10 oz.  Junior member Ryan Vasey marked his first Christmas Match with 3rd place overall with a single whiting of 9 oz, a tremendous achievement on a night most members failed to find anything at all.

January

Strong easterly winds and wintry showers greeted the anglers when they returned after their Christmas break.  Dave Perrett was top man on the first night of 2008 with 3 fish for 11 lb 03 oz.  However there was little else caught on this night and it was a sign of things to come for many of the lads.  George Middlemas and Rob Allison were anglers on form and both had excellent nights.  In the Ship Inn Open Rob had his heaviest bag of the month with 4 fish for 13 lb 05 oz - the biggest being the heaviest cod caught by any club member within a match, a fine cod of 12 lb.  Colin Stainthorpe had an excellent outright win in the Bell Trophy on the 27th of the month finding 2 fish for 6 lb 10 oz on a difficult day.  Denis Thompson and Rob Allison found themselves around 40 lb behind the 2 leaders at this point, but their favourite time of the year was yet to come.

March

Denis Thompson was the man to beat in March.  Denis consistently brought fish to the scales.  In the penultimate match Denis landed the heaviest bag of the month with 3 fish for 13 lb which took him into 2nd place, but Glen Kilpatrick who caught 3 fish for 7 lb on the same night managed to cling on to first.  The last match was a rather tense affair with only 7 lb separating 1st and 3rd place anglers.  As things turned out the weather and tide assisted Glenn and with no angler being able to ring home more than 1 lb in weight to the scales he became champion for the second time in succession.

Summary of 2007 / 2008

September & October

Another season for Whitby Sea Anglers Association kicked off on the 26th September 2007.  The lads who turned out for this match were met by driving rain and gale forced northerly winds, in fact in terms of weather this night was probably one of the worst fishing nights of the whole season.  The fishing was non to clever too with the fish not yet in winter feeding mode catches were a little slow.  Glenn Kilpatrick started the season in the manner he had finished the last, winning this match with a single codling of 6 lb 12 oz.  The clubs newest junior Ryan Vasey marked his fishing debut with a rockling of 11 oz.  Ryan did what he managed to do on many occasions throughout the season - beating his dad and many of the clubs other senior members who failed to catch.  As the days shortened in October William Atkinson, Andrew Cass, Brian Harland, Dave Perrett & Phil Mead all fished well individual match wins.  The heaviest bag of the month belonged to Glen Kilpatrick with a mixed bag of billet and pollack for 13 lb 02 oz.  Brian Harland landed the heaviest fish of the month, a fine cod of 5 lb 07 oz.

November - The Best Month by Far

November belonged to Brian Harland who smashed the clubs 3 hr match record with 7 fish for 40 lb 07 oz caught on the 14th of the month.  Club members looked on with envy at the scales as Brian removed 7 good codlings from his bag at the weigh in, the biggest also being the heaviest fish of the month at 8 lb 15 oz.  Brian later explained that the night could have been even better as 2 bigger fish snapped his main line whilst he was winding them in.  This tremendous catch from Brian meant he now had in excess of a 50 lb lead on the chasing pack and those behind were wondering how they could possibly keep pace with Brian who was in scintillating form.  Three other anglers also had big bags in November, but nothing to compare with Brain’s haul.  Denis Thompson had the second heaviest bag of the season with 8 fish for 27 lb 07 oz, Glen Kilpatrick took the third heaviest bag with 6 fish for 27 lb 02 oz.  Rob Allison also managed 7 fish for 25 lb 01 oz.  On the 11th November junior member Ryan Vasey out fished his dad Mike and most of the senior club members when he returned to the scales with his new personal best fish, the heaviest codling of the night, weighing 5 lb 04 oz.  Monday the 26th November also saw something very special with veteran angler Paul Kilpatrick showing his class with an excellent catch whilst pleasure fishing on the west pier - a huge cod of 16 lb exactly (more to come on this one later).  James Gilpin and Ben Laws also managed match wins this month showing that on their day they are capable of beating the rest.

December

December which is so often the best month of the season really failed to live up to expectations.  Long calm periods, meant the  fishing was often tough.  Andrew Cass had the best night of the month and continues to be one of the clubs most improved anglers.  Andrew found 3 good cod for just short of 16 lb on a rather stormy and difficult night when many club anglers failed to catch at all.  Paul Kilpatrick continued to catch the better fish of the month with a cod of 7 lb.  William Atkinson and Dave Perrett had match wins as did Glen Kilpatrick who was fishing consistently well.  With catches of cod and whiting throughout December Glenn had narrowed the gap between first and second to 12 lb by Christmas.  The clubs Christmas Match was fished on 23rd of the month and poor conditions were matched by equally catches.  Denis Thompson lifted the Christmas Cup with a single billet of 12 oz.  Andrew Cass came in second with a single fish of 10 oz.  Junior member Ryan Vasey marked his first Christmas Match with 3rd place overall with a single whiting of 9 oz, a tremendous achievement on a night most members failed to find anything at all.

January

Strong easterly winds and wintry showers greeted the anglers when they returned after their Christmas break.  Dave Perrett was top man on the first night of 2008 with 3 fish for 11 lb 03 oz.  However there was little else caught on this night and it was a sign of things to come for many of the lads.  George Middlemas and Rob Allison were anglers on form and both had excellent nights.  In the Ship Inn Open Rob had his heaviest bag of the month with 4 fish for 13 lb 05 oz - the biggest being the heaviest cod caught by any club member within a match, a fine cod of 12 lb.  Colin Stainthorpe had an excellent outright win in the Bell Trophy on the 27th of the month finding 2 fish for 6 lb 10 oz on a difficult day.  Denis Thompson and Rob Allison found themselves around 40 lb behind the 2 leaders at this point, but their favourite time of the year was yet to come.

February 

The month started well again for Dave Perrett with 2 cod for 10 lb 10 oz.  Brian Harland re-established his lead with 4 cod for 8 lb & Rob Allison continued his form of January with 2 fish for 8 lb.  Throughout February Rob Allison and Denis Thompson showed their late season expertise.  Rob found himself in the top 3 in almost every match of the month and Denis had the best bag of the month at just over 12 lb.  By the end of February these 2 were hot on the tails of the leaders.

March

Denis Thompson was the man to beat in March.  Denis consistently brought fish to the scales.  In the penultimate match Denis landed the heaviest bag of the month with 3 fish for 13 lb which took him into 2nd place, but Glen Kilpatrick who caught 3 fish for 7 lb on the same night managed to cling on to first.  The last match was a rather tense affair with only 7 lb separating 1st and 3rd place anglers.  As things turned out the weather and tide assisted Glenn and with no angler being able to ring home more than 1 lb in weight to the scales he became champion for the second time in succession.
