On the way home, Davey is pulled by the Old Bill. With Blues flashing he pulls into Staithes bus stop, and winds down the window. The stench of skunk from the bus stop was overwhelming, as the occupants fled. The officers approached the car and asked if Davey was smoking weed. The irony! Asking why he was out so late, he explained he’d been fishing, and had to produce his 10 lb 10 oz cod as proof. |

Thompson 'double-figure' bag
Rob Tink Taylor
Low water 23.00hrs, 1.7m, 1024mbar, 9°C, TR 3.8m
First match of 2024 - 2025 Season WSAA members met at the Bandstand, Pier Rd for registration, a quick catch-up with new and old faces before the group photograph. Members departed at 18.45hrs for their chosen marks. Tide was already 2hrs down, sadly by match end low water marks would just be opening up, too late to take advantage.
Sea state NEasterly 6ft, thick with colour, although one member reported no colour. NEasterly winds 21mph, minimal cloud cover, and no rain during the 3hr match. With the rough seas of late, weed was a problem in the surf, bladder rack dragging lines deeper into the surf and masking fish bites.
Of the 13 members fishing only 7 had a weigh-in, total catch 16 codlings and a rockling, a poor start to the season. First double-figure bag to Denis Thompson.
Last week, on the last match of the Scarborough Fishing Festival Colin Stainthorpe won ‘Hospital Challenge Bowl’ on Sunday 29th Oct. from a bag of 11 lb 04 oz 06 drms his HFish 6 lb 01 oz 04 drm secured the win. Well done.

Tink Taylor takes early lead
Rob Taylor
High water 18.50hrs, 5.44m, 998mbar, 12°C, TR 3.9m
Sunday evening’s 4hr match started in daylight, an hour before high water. Full cloud cover, and rain forecast for mid-match. Sea sate SEasterly 6ft with little to no colour. SEasterly winds 25mph hampered casting. A large pod of dolphins were spotted heading south at dusk.
Fishing was very slow despite the welcome sea state, not even rockling bites for the first hour. Once the tide turned the fish started to bite, and a couple of codlings were picked up. But another period of inactivity. The rain did not help, starting at 19.30hrs for an hour then light drizzle until 21.30hrs.
At the scales Jason Ebison was on hand, of the eleven fishing just five had a weigh-in - 10 codlings, 2 bleggs, 1 billet, and 1 rockling for 25 lb 10 oz.
Two better fish recorded, the best from Rob Taylor 3 lb 10 oz, and Brian Harland 3 lb 07 oz.
The Monthly Sweeps have now started and Rob and Brian are on the score sheet for HFish & HBoFish respectively.
Results:- 25 lb 10 oz (Av 1 lb 13 oz)

High water 20.37hrs, 4.93m, 991mbar, 9°C, TR 2.6m
No one was looking forward to the midweek 3hr evening match, HWater 20.37hrs, and nowhere to gain shelter apart from Sofa Hole from the very inclement weather.
13ft growing Northerly sea state and a screaming Northerly wind [+37mph] with heavy rainfall forecast. The swell had been steadily growing from LWater, swell sets grew from 4secs to 12secs, a proper long distance ground swell by match start.
Piers were out of the question due to the wind, a few cliff marks offered limited shelter from the winds but casting was pot luck re distance and accuracy. Bite detection was masked by wind strength, bowed lines gave extra resistance, with end tackle dragged into snags. Other marks, looked at during the day, at low water, were ruled out due to quantities of weed in the water and deposited on shore line. Catch forecast was understandably low.
At the scales, of the 6 fishing, just 5 had a very meagre weigh-in 6 codlings, 2 rocklings [best 12½ oz]. Man of the Match with both HBoFish & HFish Col Stainthorpe 5 lb 02 oz, his best codling was 2 lb 03½ oz.
Knockout draw took place in the Fleece after some welcome warming soup & crusty bread.

Thompson regains lead
Denis Thompson
Low water 19.44hrs, 2.5m, 1019mbar, 5°C, TR 2.3m
Fourteen fished the 4hr evening match on Sunday, starting in daylight 18.00hrs. BST ends Sunday 27th October. Conditions, much improved from last Wednesday. Sea state still 8-12ft Northerly with minimal colour. Slight Northerly breeze 5mph, full cloud cover, a neap tide, LWater 19.44hrs, 2.5m. Although LWater was mid-match there was no advantage to be gained. The Tidal Range between high & low water only 2.3m. Baiting up before match start, it was noted surging was going to be a problem.
Fishing was slow in daylight and not expected to improve until the flood. Surging and heavy tow were compounded by weed, unseen bladder rack fouled end tackle. The near full Hunters moon made a brief appearance, thankfully hidden for the rest of the match by the heavy cloud cover. Surging continued through slack water and grew with the flood.
At the scales “I didn’t have a fish until 21.00hrs.” was a common remark amongst the members. Jason Ebison oversaw proceedings from the 9 successful members recording 30 codlings, 1 bass, 1 billet and 2 rocklings for the season best weigh-in 70 lb 12 oz, doubling the season’s total weigh-in after Match 4.
Man of the Match Denis Thompson 5 codlings, 1 bass and a billet for one of the two ‘double-figure’ bags 16 lb 01½ oz. His best 4 lb 10 oz took HFish of the night. Brian Harland had the other ‘double-figure’ bag at 12 lb 04 oz, his best 4 lb 05½ oz.
Monthly Sweeps Brian [HBoFish] & Denis [HFish], Denis only enters HFish.

Low water 22.07hrs, 1.40m, 1000mbar, 16°C, TR 4.4m
Mid-week 3hr evening match, an all ebb to LWater, enabled members to reach their chosen marks, fishing the tangle beds and gulleys. ESEasterly sea state 6ft, but surging like Sunday, ESEasterly winds gusting 28mph. Colour varied greatly, from gin clear to thick chocolate.
The full Hunters moon was not visible all night due to heavy cloud cover and a rain shower at 21.00hrs. The ebb was larger than predicted in the tables. Fine green and brown grass weed fouled shock leader knots, resembling pipe cleaners.
Of the 12 fishing, 9 had a weigh-in - 16 codlings, 5 billets [coal fish] and 3 rocklings for 44 lb 08 oz. Man of the Match Dave Hambley, Staithes also had the HFish of the season to date 6 lb 04½ oz. Mike Saunders, Guisborough had the next best codling at 3 lb 10½ oz.
Knockouts Preliminary round:

Tink Taylor overcomes Storm Ashley
High water 18.43hrs, 5.84m, 1001mbar, 11°C, TR 4.6m
The first named storm, Ashley, inbound across the Atlantic, SSWesterly winds forecast to top 53mph. The evening’s 4hr match started an hour before HWater. SSEasterly sea state 6ft thick with colour, and clear skies. Members watched the bright orange waxing Hunters moon rise above the horizon at 19.00hrs.
The wind was brutal, even with the shelter of the land mass, the clouds passed overhead out to sea however the wind vortexed over the cliff edges and became a fierce Southerly.
Cast forecast was low, just 11 members fishing, piers were popular, however with the wind howling up the harbour, kit bags needed to be well secured. Gusts of wind and heavily bowed lines meant bite detection was masked. End tackle losses were very high.
At the scales 7 returned with a meagre catch - 9 codlings, 1 billet and 4 rocklings - 18 lb 13 oz. Man of the Match, for the second time, Colin Stainthorpe, Whitby 5 lb 05½ oz (4). HFish fell to Rob ‘Tink’ Taylor, Whitby 3 lb 11 oz, his 3rd in 6 matches!
Results:- 18 lb 13 oz (Av 1 lb 06 oz)

Secretary’s night
High water 21.03hrs, 5.01m, 1025mbar, 9°C, TR 2.6m
The midweek 3hr match for WSAA members was definitely a scratching match. Sea state, flat, and HWater 21.00hrs. At match start the gentle Southerly breeze was due to grow in strength [33mph]. Piers were very popular, fishing for anything, just for a weigh-in.
Heavy cloud cover, made for a dark night, only broken by the RNLI search lights as they practiced ‘man over board’ manoeuvres within the harbour pier extensions. 21.00hrs the cloud cover was cleared as the wind started to increase in strength. The Abbey was all lit up ready for Halloween celebrations.
Fishing was extremely slow, bait robbers forced a change, downsizing hooks to smaller baits, added with distance in the hope of picking something up, and persistence paid off. Two 2/0 flapper rigs would still catch billets and codlings.
At the scales, of the 10 fishing only four had a very meagre weigh-in [the poorest to date] - 9 lb 02 oz giving a 12 oz average.
Man of the Match WSAA Secretary Peter Horbury, Whitby - 1 codling and 5 rocklings. HFish of the night fell to WSAA Treasurer Dave Perrett, Whitby, with the first LSD [lesser spotted dogfish] 1 lb 12 oz [now the Lightest Fish to Win HFish].
In the knockouts neither Colin Stainthorpe nor Mike Saunders weighed-in.
Rob Taylor at work, he will fish against Dave Perrett. Both matches to be fished next wednesday, 30th.
Results:- 9 lb 02 oz (Av 12 oz)

Stainthorpe 3rd win from eight
Low water 19.06hrs, 2.68m, 1019mbar, 9°C, TR 2.0m
The fifth match in a row with a ‘Southerly’ variation of winds, this time SSWesterly for the 4hr evening match, and 0.4mm of rain forecast for mid-match. Sea state flat, catch forecast very low, consequently only 7 fishing the last hour of ebb and 3hrs of flood.
“Fish for what’s in front of you.” Brian Harland went on, “It’s the same conditions for everyone, just enjoy fishing.” A neap tide, the ebb went nowhere, tidal range 2 metres, piers and cliffs or travel to more tidal marks were the options.
By 19.00hrs the wind grew in strength 20mph+, the light rain intensified making for a miserable night. The fishing did not get any better, heavily bowed lines masked bites and dragged end tackle into snags. Fishing two hook flapper rigs of 2/0 hooks, 3 rocklings in the bag in the first 3 casts, job done a weigh-in.
At the scales only 4 members had a very meagre weigh-in 4 codlings 11 rocklings - 9 lb 06 oz, four ounces more than Wednesday night!! Man of the Match Colin Stainthorpe, Whitby. 2 codlings, 6 rocklings for 5 lb 07 oz inc. HFish 1 lb 09 oz.

Perrett ‘double-figure bag’
Jason Ebison
Low water 20.59hrs, 1.97m, 1030mbar, 9°C, TR 3.3m
High pressure centred over the UK, light SSWesterly winds 6mph, Northerly ground swell 2-3ft, plenty of colour for Wednesday evenings 3hr match. Fishing down and over LWater a chance to fish the tangle beds and gulleys.
Heavy cloud cover made for a dark night’s fishing, very mild and no rain for the pluviophiles. Swells were irregular with some surging, an eye had to kept open so as not to take a wave as it hit the reef edge. Fish bites were few and far between with some reporting nothing until the flood in the last hour of the match.
Tackle loses were minimal, baits of choice peeler crab, frozen lug and muscle. A few tales of wow with fish lost at member’s feet trying to land on the ragged scaur ledges.
A queue at the scales as 8 of the 12, who fished waited their turn to weigh-in, overall 17 codlings, 10 rocklings and 1 LSD. Man of the Match Dave Perrett, Whitby with the only ‘double-figure bag’ 10 lb 01 oz (6).

Ebison sets sweepstake bar
Jason Ebison
High water 16.52hrs, 5.56m, 1029mbar, 7°C, TR 4.0m
Gentle SSEasterly breeze 6mph, 9°C, and full cloud cover for the first match in November. The long distance Northerly ground swell was all but gone, just lines in the sea. Water was still thick with colour, however catch forecast was low, a discombobulated tide, all ebb, neither high nor low water.
Piers and cliff marks for the first 1-2hrs, then a move down onto the scaurs, and follow the tide out. Slight drizzle at the start of the match soon passed. It was going to be a hard night a weigh-in req’d so started fishing with two 3/0 hook flapper rigs. A codling, a rockling and a size lobster [carrying berries so returned] before changing to 5/0 3/0 circle for another codling and a rockling.
At the scales 9 of the 13 [+1Jnr] had a weigh-in - 23 codlings, 6 rocklings, 1 billet, and 2 LSD’s - 52 lb 05 oz. WSAA welcomes new members Eric Chadwick and his son Roman, Eric recorded a weigh-in on his first match 2 codlings, 2 lb 09 oz.
Man of the Match, with the only ‘double-figure’ bag, Jason Ebison, Whitby 3 codlings and 2 LSD’s [lesser spotted dogfish] 13 lb 12 oz, Jason also had the HFish of the night 5 lb 06 oz. Second Place Brain Harland takes lead HBoFish Sweepstake as Jason chose not to enter. The next best codling 4 lb 14½ oz from Dave Hambley, Staithes.

Ebison Heaviest Fish #Again
High water 18.34hrs, 5.25m, 1031mbar, 9°C, TR 3.25m
“Not fishing”, the messages came in one after the other, sea state flat [with colour], a 3hr scratching match, an extremely low catch forecast. High water 18.30hrs, a clear cloudless sky, ideal for the 10 fishing to do some star gazing [there’d be plenty of time]!! All ebb, piers, deep water cliff marks, or travel to fish more tidal marks were the options.
High pressure over Norway [two more side by side over the Mediterranean, the jet stream up and over Greenland & Iceland, with a low pressure system over the atlantic waiting to come into play. Discombobulated weather, and yet another variation of a Southerly wind, SSWesterly moving Southerly, 8mph.
Downsizing hooks, and fresh baits made no difference, the fish just were not there, biteless with more lobsters were landed on the pier than fish [of any species]. Those who travelled Scarborough way were caught up in very poor signage for a night time road closure at Staintondale, with one member missing the weigh-in.
At the scales, five species - 1 codling, 1 LSD, 1 blegg, 1 flounder, and 1 rockling. Man of the Match Brian Harland, Whitby, 2 lb 02 oz (2) his best, a codling 1 lb 02 oz was beaten to HFish of the night by Jason Ebison, Whitby, a 1 lb 13 oz Lesser Spotted Dogfish.
Results:- 5 lb 04 oz (Av 1 lb 01 oz)

Dunkelflaute - anticyclonic gloom
High pressure and the anticyclonic gloom could be about to brake, too late for Sunday’s 4hr evening match. Sea state flat, yet another scratching match, all flood, consequently just 7 members & a junior fished. The winds had shifted to WNWesterly 38mph and Northerly swell is expected to grow this week, just in time for WSAA annual one day Open competition on Sunday 17th Nov.
Two hook flapper rig, 1/0 & 3/0 hooks, and fish for what is likely to be in front, rocklings, it was a long 4hrs. 18.36hrs a Red alert for the Aurora Borealis, and there it was on the horizon, the green arch with green spikes clearly visible and then STEVE, a red shaft. And just like that, it was gone, the highlight of the evening.
A bright ¾ Beaver moon to the south, minimal cloud cover. The wind steadily grew in strength affect casting and bait detection. Heavily bowed lines meant more resistance, dragging end tackle into snags. Two rocklings [2 others returned] and a billet 35.5cm, which would need re-measuring at match end, as they shrink.
At the scales just rocklings, 9 for the poorest weigh-in 3 lb 04 oz. Man of the Match Colin Stainthorpe, Whitby 5 for 1 lb 14 oz, inc. HFish 7 oz [now lightest fish to win HFish - nee the wooden spoon]. Brian Harland and Dave Perrett ‘had’ a 100% weigh-in record until they both ‘blanked’.

Magician Ebison pulls another HFish out
Jason Ebison
Low water 19.53hrs, 18.3m, 1033mbar, 9°C, TR 3.7m
The weather forecasts have been very disappointing in their accuracy. Long distance Northerly swell just didn’t materialise for Wednesday evening’s 3hr match, and looking doubtful for Sunday’s Open. Water was crystal clear, and sea state NWesterly swell 1ft at best. Yet another scratching match for 12 members and a junior.
It was a good job there was heavy cloud cover [and light drizzle, not so] to mask the near full Beaver moon [full on 15th]. The WNWesterly winds grew in strength throughout the match 15mph. Plenty of small bait robber bites, the next question was - continue to fish for codlings or change rigs and target smaller fish for a weigh-in? 2hrs of nothing fishing for codlings then switched to two hook rigs with 2/0’s. One rockling in the bag, job done, a weigh-in.
At the scales Jason Ebison, Whitby, surprised everyone with the HFish, a 4 lb 14½ oz pollock, 1 blegg, and 3 rocklings, giving him HBoFish 7 lb 00 oz. Jason has 2 HBoFish & 4 HFish wins.
In order to be competitive, a 5 lb match average weigh-in is req’d. Leading angler Brian Harland is negative 9 lb, which shows how poor the start to the season has been. By Match 13 last season the weigh-in was 447 fish for 760 lb, with the top rod 48 lb ahead of the target 65 lb.
Singles knockouts final:
Colin Stainthorpe beat Dave Perrett [by 1 oz], who said “I would have tried harder if I had remembered it was the final!!”
Results:- 13 lb 02 oz (Av 13 oz)

Chapman takes the honours
Low water 10.36hrs, 1.18m, 1012mbar, 9°C, TR 4.5m
Sunday saw Whitby Sea Anglers host their annual Open match. Ninety five seniors and 5 juniors competing for a £750 First Place prize, jointly sponsored by Wilf Nobles Plant Hire & Construction £500, and £250 Mariner A.
Conditions were favourable for the 6hr match, fishing from 10.00 - 16.00hrs, the weigh-in and match presentation held at Whitby Rifle Club. However the Northerly sea state, 8-10ft, was growing making some marks unfishable requiring a move mid match. Plenty of colour in the water, bright clear skies but a chilly WNWesterly wind gusting 22mph.
Low water at 10.36hrs, Whitby, the flood was nearly an hour late to take hold, but once flooding its progress was fast pushed on by the wind. Three local anglers had to help visitors off the scaur despite their earlier warnings that it was imperative to make their way off the scaurs or become stranded the wrong side of cut-offs.
Come 16.30hrs the queue for the weigh-in was out into the car park, as Chairman William Atkinson, and Rich Deadman methodically ‘scored’ the fish and weighed the fish, all 177 of them - 172 codlings, 2 bleggs, 1 bass, 1 billet and 1 flat fish.
Of the 100 rods, 54 weighed-in 506 lb 07 oz, giving an average of 2 lb 15 oz/fish. The leading junior Rhys Carr won £50, 53rd overall. The Heaviest Flat Fish 14½ oz winning £25 for local angler Damion Townsend.
The Superpool, sponsored £5 per match entry was boosted by £150 from Mariner A, giving a £624 prize pot split 2/3rd & 1/3rd for the two Heaviest Fish. Phil France, Scarborough had a fine spragg of 10 lb 06 oz for HFish. Local angler Mike Vasey was runner-up with another spragg of 8 lb 00 oz.
Overall winner of the 45th annual Open was Guisborough angler Brad Chapman collecting the £750 jackpot. In second Sean Crowe, Scarborough collected £200 with Mark Thomas, Scarborough collecting £100 for third place.
For 15th there was a special place prize of £75 collected by Dave Sayers, Saltburn.
The prizes went down to 40th Place. In Last Place Rob Pierson, Saltburn collect a special place prize of £30.
For those who were unfortunate to ‘blank’ there was a Lucky Ticket draw won by local angler Chris McCarthy £15.
After the prize giving the raffle was held with the top prize of Sunday lunch main course for two at Sneaton castle, kindly donated by Sue at Sneaton Castle, Whitby - won by Mark Stonehouse.
Many thanks to for all competing, tight lines and see you all next year, Sunday 23rd November 2025.

Harland & Taylor sweep-up in doubles knockout final
Brian Harland
High water 18.50hrs, 5.38m, 1008mbar, -3°C, TR 3.2m
The Northerly sea state was still with us from Sunday, 10-15ft, thick with colour after a very successful Open match. The weather had turned very wintery to say the least with heavy snow overnight on the moor tops, and flurries in daylight.
Temperatures dropped to -3°C [allegedly the coldest night since 2010 -11°C Goathland, -10°C Esk Valley], WNWesterly winds 20-30mph, and clear skies, hence the temp drop.
The 3hr evening match started at HWater [give or take 10mins for North or south of Whitby]. Baiting up it was evident the swells were irregular and surging, and thankfully no signs of weed either on the shoreline or in the surf. The waning Beaver moon made a brief appearance at 19.30hrs.
Once fishing, first cast a bite straight, hooked, but alas lost on the retrieve, second cast hooked another better fish on the retrieve the shock leader knot snapped. And that was the excitement over that for the rest of the evening. And yet 20yds away Brian Harland was pulling them in one after the other - more jam than Hartleys [other manufacturers are available!].
At the scales, 3 double-figure bags, one over 20 lb from Man of the Match Brian Harland, Whitby, 21 lb 05½ oz, Davey Turnbull 19 lb 02 oz (9), and Rob Taylor 10 lb 07 oz (5).
Two good fish were weighed-in, the first 5 lb 12 oz from Neil Eglon, Whitby, and the second, the HFish of the night 8 lb 13 oz from non-other than Brian Harland. Brian did need assistance to successfully land the spragg from the rocky foreshore, at the time, estimated to be a double.
Dylan Goldsmith recorded is first weigh-in at the 7th attempt.
In the Doubles Knockout Final:
Brian Harland & Rob Taylor - 31 lb 12½ oz (13)

Dave Perrett & Mike Saunders - 8 lb 02½ oz (4)

HWater 11.00hrs Sandsend
Eglon - first wins
High water 23.06hrs, 4.7m, 986mbar, 3°C, TR 1.8m
Storm Bert had wreaked havoc all over the UK, heavy snowfall leading to snowmelt, then flooding. Local temperatures swung from -10 to 12°C in 24hrs. Consequently the close to shore waters were thick with colour, from a lot of fresh water. Sea state flat, an all flood match on a neap tide, SSWesterly winds gusting 40 mph. Another scratching match for the ten members fishing from 18.00 - 22.00hrs.
Catch forecast was low, piers, and cliff marks were very popular with Clubmen [inc. Mary’s] and pleasure anglers alike. Bites were few and far between despite quality baits. One hazard were the anglers on the West pier casting over the harbour entrance and pulling in the lines of anglers fishing on the East pier.
A few fresh run codlings started to show as the flood progressed. Small fish bites started to keep anglers on their toes but nothing landed until Secretary Peter Horbury landed a haddock. Which could have answered the question as to the small fish bites.
At the scales total catch 18 codlings, 3 rocklings and the 1 haddock - 33 lb 00 oz. Man of the Match Neil Eglon, Whitby, also had the HFish, a codling 3 lb 10 oz. Neil’s first HBoFish & HFish wins, making 9 different winners for each after 16 matches.
A competitive match average weight req’d is 5 lb, Brian Harland is the only member in recent matches to achieve this average, with 6 lb 11 oz in credit, enough for a ‘blank’ or night off in ‘Sofa Hole’.
Results:- 33 lb 00 oz (Av 1 lb 08 oz)

13.30hrs Sandsend
Stainthorpe ends the month on a high
Col Stainthorpe
Low water 19.46hrs, 2.4m, 1018mbar, 5°C, TR 2.5m
A much preferred tide to fish as members made their way along the scaurs to their favourite low water marks. Match started an hour before LWater on a neap tide. Sea state NNWesterly rough swell which was surging. Water clarity, crystal clear, unusual considering all the rainfall!
The ebbing tide had deposited tonnes of weed on the HWater line. 19.00hrs, match start, heavy constant rainfall made baiting-up and keeping the inside of kit bags dry problematical.
Members reported plenty of small fish bites, expectations were high but only five members had a weigh-in and were only too glad to get into a warm, dry pub afterwards!
Man of the Match Colin Stainthorpe, Whitby, with the only ‘double-figure bag’ 14 lb 11 oz, 6 codlings, and his best 3 lb 09½ oz took HFish of the night. Jason Ebison, Whitby had the nest best codling 3 lb 01½ oz.
Many thanks Bernard Vasey for the shoreline report.
That concludes November’s fishing, 151 fish - 108 codlings, 4 bleggs/pouting, 3 billets, 3 LSD, 1 flounder, 1 haddock and 1 pollock for 259 lb 11 oz giving a 1 lb 12 oz Av.

Low water 22.10hrs, 1.73m, 1006mbar, 9°C, TR 3.75m
Meteorologically speaking, the first day of winter but it did not feel like it, 10°C, very mild. SWesterly winds, gusting 22mph, sea sate SEasterly 3ft, thick with colour. Fishing 4hrs on an all ebb tide there was a chance to reach some LWater marks by the end of the match. Heavy cloud cover, no rain forecast.
The match got off to an excellent start for Rob ‘Tink’ Taylor, 3 codlings in the bag within the first ½hr [myself 2 codlings & a r’ling]. The ebb was very slow to take hold but within 2hrs it was time to make a move out onto the open scaurs. Fish bites were no cleanly hooked, with many foul hooked, with more than one or two lost on the retrieve.
At the scales, Man of the Match Rob ‘Tink’ Taylor, Whitby, 7 codlings for the only ‘double-figure’ bag 15 lb 01 oz his best 3 lb 10 oz. A well-deserved HFish of the night fell to Bernard Vasey, Whitby, 6 lb 04 oz, reporting he landed it on his second cast. There were many ‘congratulations’ from members. Unfortunately Bernard has not entered the Monthly Sweeps so Tink has set the bar for December at 3 lb 10 oz
Results:- 59 lb 10 oz (Av 1 lb 08 oz)

Harland 100lb Club
Dave Perrett
High water 17.42hrs, 5.48m, 1015mbar, 9°C, TR 3.72m
Wednesday evenings 3hr Club match was not going to be easy nor pleasant!! Fishing an all ebb tide, 1hr after HWater on a fast dying Northerly sea state thick with colour. Piers and cliff marks were popular. The rain started right on cue, at match start, just as the Southerly winds started to grow in strength, gusting 40mph, the forecast was accurate. Once the tide had turned the swells faded, knocked back by the wind and ebb, a scratching match for the 13 members fishing.
With reports of big catches the evening before [Tues] on social media pleasure anglers were out & about but the rain sorted the men from the boys, and the piers soon emptied as the conditions deteriorated. Bites were few and far between despite fresh quality baits. But persistence paid off, aided by a move, 2 codlings in the bag in the last hour.
The evening wasn’t plain sailing, snags of lost braid were pulled in. Either weak line or poor end tackle management ie no rotten bottom.
At the scales, after battling the wind, and rain, members leaving their marks, were slow and maybe pushed their luck to the last minute to reach the weigh-in. What with buses, taxis and traffic lights!
Last [as usual to the scales] Man of the Match Dave Perrett, Whitby, 5 codlings and a billet, just 1 oz shy of a ‘double-figure’ bag - 9 lb 15 oz, included HFish of the night 3 lb 13 oz which now leads in the Monthly Sweep. Next best fish 3 lb 11 oz from Jason Ebison, Whitby.
Match 19 and ‘Congratulations’ to Brian Harland, Whitby, who was first to the ‘100lb Club’. Still the only member to attain the 5 lb match average weigh-in.
Results:- 35 lb 09 oz (Av 1 lb 10 oz)

Whitby wave buoy
31ft @ 06.00hrs |
High water 21.00hrs, 5.13m, mbar, °C, TR 2.66m
Storm Darragh battered the UK, hitting the NEast coast over the weekend. A 30ft wave was recorded at 06.00hrs on Sunday by Whitby wave buoy. By Sunday evening the NEasterly swells were dropping 8-12ft, thick with colour, and some marks suffered with weed. With only a few marks fishable, members found themselves with company. The NEasterly wind spoilt the 4hr evening match, gusting 31mph, severely hampering casting and bite detection.
Just 10 members fishing the last 3hrs of flood on a neap tide and the first hour of ebb. Long distance ground swells were very regular with no surging, surprisingly the tide turned very quickly just after 21.00hrs for the ebb. Cloud cover soon thinned to reveal a start studded sky.
Fish bites were few and far between with members expecting more fish to have been caught. There were just a few pleasure anglers out but they soon retired to sofa hole, likewise some members called ‘time’ early.
At the scales, of the ten fishing only 6 had a weigh-in, Man of the Match Davey Turnbullator Turnbull, Darlington, with both HBoFish & HFish of the night 5 lb 07 oz - which now leads in the Monthly Sweep. Rob Tink Taylor, Whitby, was pipped by 1 oz to HBoFish having dropped 1 fish on the retrieve mid-match.
In the Sunday League, Brian Harland has recorded 50 lb 13 oz (34 fish) leading Rob Taylor by 7 lb 01 oz
Results:- 22 lb 01 oz (Av 2 lb 00 oz)

12.18 hrs high water Sandsend
Saunders first win
Low water 18.23hrs, 2.24m, 1036mbar, 5°C, TR 2.8m
High pressure now dominating, centred over central UK, a cold NNEasterly breeze 6mph, 5°C. Sea state flat, a scratching match for 15 members fishing the all flood match. Low water was at 18.23hrs, so the tide had just started to turn as the match started at 19.00hrs. A neap tide, catch forecast was very low, full cloud cover [no star gazing], and no rain forecast for the 3hrs duration.
Piers and beaches the marks of choice. It was along 3hrs, cast after cast went biteless, baits coming back untouched. Switching to smaller, two hook flapper rigs did not improve the fishing either.
At the scales a very meagre catch 11 lb 13 oz from 6 whitings, 5 billets, 2 r’lings, 1 blegg & 1 flounder from 4 successful members. Man of the Match, for his first HBoFish win, Mike Saunders, Guisborough 6 whitings and a 1 lb flounder - 4 lb 15½ oz. HFish, of the night by just 1 oz, a billet, fell to Dave Perrett, Whitby.
Second match of the season where no codlings weighed-in.
Results:- 11 lb 13 oz (Av 13 oz)

Harland maintains 5 lb average
Brian Harland
Low water 21.59hrs, 1.1m, 1022mbar, 11°C, TR 4.4m
Conditions for Sunday evening’s 4hr match were trying to say the least despite an ideal tide for members to fish their favourite low water marks, gullies and tangle beds. Catch forecast was low due to a screaming Westerly wind, gusting 49mph, probably the worst direction to try and fish in. Sea state 1½ft Northerly lump at best, with wind against tide that swell was soon knocked back to nothing.
The bright December’s Cold Moon tried to make an appearance but thankfully was masked by the fast moving cloud cover. There was nowhere to gain shelter from the wind, kit bags and tripods blown over if not secured. Dry sand was blown into the face, [nee grit blasted], and fishing reels.
With the ebb already 2hrs back, fishing down to low water it was not long before a move out onto the open scaurs was required as the ebb was fast in retreat. And that was a move to far, as the full force of the wind was felt, and many beat a hasty retreat, and called it a night, myself included.
Two members Brain Harland & Dave Perrett, reported leaning into the wind for support to stay standing, only to fall over when the gust stopped!
At the scales just four of the nine members fishing had something to weigh-in. Man of the Match, who else, Brian Harland, Whitby, 5 fish - 5 lb 13 oz including HFish of the night a codling of 4 lb 09 oz. Total weigh-in 3 codlings, and 6 rocklings for 10 lb 05 oz.
Results:- 10 lb 05 oz (Av 1 lb 02 oz)

Ingleston first win
Dave Perrett
High water 17.51hrs, 5.6m, 998mbar, 6°C, TR 3.8m
60mph Westerly winds and 1.2mm of rain were forecast for Wednesday evening’s 3hr match, just didn’t materialise. Full cloud cover threatened rain at times, a gentle, but cold Westerly wind 5mph at best. Sea state, an hour into the ebb, 1ft, at best Northerly swell, thick with colour.
A scratching match for the 13 fishing, piers and cliff marks were the marks of choice with a few travelling further afield. A few tried their luck on the local beaches for whiting and haddock. Fishing the piers was hazardous as a 20ft tree floated out of the harbour taking a few lines with it.
Fish bites were few and far between, with a codling first cast it wasn’t until the last cast, another bite, returned a rockling.
Back at the scales 6 returned with another meagre catch of: 7 whitings, 5 codlings, 3 rocklings, 1 haddock for 15 lb 08 oz. Man of the Match Steve Ingleston, Whitby with his first HBoFish win. HFish went to Dave Perrett, Whitby, 2 lb 14 oz, it had seen better days, with serious ulcer wounds from being trapped in a net.
Brian Harland has dropped below the 5 lb match average [see table below in Red]..
Results:- 15 lb 08 oz (Av 1 lb 00 oz)

Members Christmas match, fishing from 14.00 - 19.00hrs, weigh-in and presentation, The Wilson Arms, Sneaton. Sponsored by NR Carpets and Rich Deadman. Many thanks.
Conditions were far, far from ideal, a screaming, strengthening NWesterly wind, forecast for 52mph gusts. Sea state thick with colour, growing, forecast to be 12ft by match end. At match start, wind against tide for the last hour of ebb. A slack tide, just 2.0 metres tidal range between High and LWater. Low water marks would not be accessible, not just because of the tide, but also the wind would severely hamper fishing.
Once the tide had turned, within an hour it was obvious the sea state was growing, ‘wind and tide’ now in unison. Tactics, small hooks in daylight in the hope of picking up a rockling or two for a weigh-in [achieved 15.30hrs], best chance of a codling would be in darkness.
Weigh-in Jason Ebison had set the scales up in the back of his van for shelter. Ten of 19 members achieved a weigh-in, 10 codlings, 8 rocklings and 1 billet - 35 lb 01 oz, Av 1 lb 14 oz.
Christmas match winner Rob ‘Tink’ Taylor [the only double-figure bag] 4 codlings - 12 lb 03½ oz his best codling 3 lb 15 was not enough for HFish. This fell to Brian Harland, a fine spragg of 7 lb 06 oz, Brian picked up the Michael Deadman Memorial Trophy. Both Rob & Brian collected their trophies and £50 each from Chairman William Atkinson & Rich Deadman respectively.
Members enjoyed a festive Sunday lunch at the Wilson Arms, from hosts Dawn & Dan before the presentations from Secretary Peter Horbury. Followed by a raffle, no one went home empty handed. Merry Christmas and a Happy New year to all.

Thoroughly inclement conditions
Jason Ebison
High water 19.41hrs, 5.37m, 981mbar, 2°C, TR 3.58m
Over the festive break members fished Cloughton Rock’s Festive Sweepstake Open on Monday 30th December. Congratulations to WSAA member Dylan Goldsmith, Whitby, who won both top prizes. He had the HBoFish 19 lb 01 oz (3) which included a fine cod of 11 lb 10 oz, picking up the HFish prize.
This puts Dylan in-line for the David "Sten" Stonehouse Memorial Sandsend Trophy - which is for the heaviest fish caught out of WSAA competition.
The first match of the New Year - Sunday night’s 4hr match was a complete wash-out!! Literally everyone and everything was drenched!! Constant heavy rain from start to finish for the 10 fishing, a few throwing the ‘towel-in’ mid match due to the thoroughly inclement conditions.
ENEasterly winds, gusting 25mph, and a SEasterly swell 4-6ft. HWater was mid match 19.41hrs swell sets were pretty much regular with a lull over HWater, except for a few push backs as tide fought the ebb. Plenty of colour in the water.
Piers and cliff marks were popular options, too heavy for the local beaches, a few marks had weed reported, necessitating a move to find a clear mark to fish. It was not exactly knee deep in fish but a welcome weigh-in to start the New Year for 5 of the 10 fishing.
At the scales Man of the Match Secretary Peter Horbury, Whitby - 7 lb 14 oz (3), his best 2 lb 14 oz. HFish of the night fell to Jason Ebison, Whitby - 5 lb 03 oz. Peter now has two HBoFish wins, and Jason has five HFish wins. Weighed-in 14 codlings for 32 lb 05 oz a welcome 2 lb 05 oz average.
Both results lead in the Monthly Sweep for January.
Results:- 32 lb 05 oz (Av 2 lb 05 oz)

Last cast Turnbull
Davey Turnbull
High water 22.43hrs, 4.97m, 1001mbar, -3°C, TR 2.7m
Low pressure, centred over Norway, dominating the weather as the UK is gripped in a cold snap. WNWesterly breeze 12mph drawing cold air from the artic, temperatures have plunged below zero for ‘all’ after heavy snowfall across the UK. After all the rain at the weekend, draining water from the fields had frozen making roads, footpaths and tracks hazardous.
Sea state 8-12ft Northerly, thick with colour, had been steadily growing since Sunday’s wash-out [heavy rain all match]. An all flood, 3hr, evening match on a neap tide. Right from the start some minor surging was evident, leading to periods of calm waiting for tide and swell sets to be in unison. As the marks filled-up the smaller fish started to bite.
Mid match I went down for a bite at the same time as Rob Taylor was pulling in. He was pullinmg me in/sliding up my line. Once he had untangled his line from mine, I wound in the slack only for it to fight back. A good nodding cod bite. Rob went down the rocks and landed my 5 lb 12 oz codling - many thanks Roberto.
At the scales two ‘double-figure’ bags, the first from Secretary Peter Horbury, Whitby, 11 lb 09 oz, (4) his best 5 lb 12 oz. The second from Man of the Match Davey Turnbull, Darlington, 17 lb 04 oz included the ‘now’ leading HFish in a match - 10 lb 10 oz cod. Incidentally Wed 3rd Jan 2024 [1yr ago] Davey weighed-in a cod of 11 lb 12 oz, part of a near 23lb bag!!
Davey reported landing his 10 lb 10 oz cod on his last cast.

14.30hrs Sandsend
Vasey takes both honours
Low water 21.11hrs, 1.46m, 1036mbar, -1°C, TR 3.68m
The cold snap continues, -2°C, SSWesterly winds, gusting 26mph. Sea state flat for the all ebb 4hr match. Fishing down to LWater gave members a chance to reach their favourite gullies and tangle beds, however the catch forecast was very low. The Wolf moon was shining bright for the first 1½hrs, after which it fully clouded over, followed by a build-up of freezing fog across the bay.
Localised SSWesterly swell 1ft at best soon ebbed away along with the tide. High pressure, 1036mbar, the ebb was far larger than tabled. The absence of fish can be put down to the lack of movement and the time of year as fish move off into deeper waters to spawn.
The ‘weigh-in’ was ‘2 oz’ better than the worst weigh-in [Sun 10th Nov ‘24] of the season - 5 rocklings and a codling for 3 lb 06 oz, giving a 9 oz average fish. Bernard Vasey was very happy, winning his first Man of the Match, and also picked up his 2nd HFish win.
Results:- 3 lb 06 oz (Av 9 oz)

The ‘weigh-in’ was ‘2 oz’ better than the worst weigh-in [Sun 10th Nov ‘24] of the season - 5 rocklings and a codling for 3 lb 06 oz, giving a 9 oz average fish. Bernard Vasey was very happy, winning his first Man of the Match, and also picked up his 2nd HFish win.

Thompson last to scales
Denis Thompson
High water 16.58hrs, 5.5m, 1031mbar, 5°C, TR 4.5m
High pressure continued to dominate from Sunday, the freezing temperatures a distant memory, a big swing in temperatures to very mild weather 15°C during the day. Early afternoon and members were already cancelling, a scratching match imminent. Flat sea state, with colour, a very slight long distance Northerly swell 1-2ft was forecast to grow through late afternoon. Clear skies and a very bright Wolf moon did not help, for the 6 fishing.
The swell did grow and was most welcome in localised marks with a few codlings picked up. It was very slow with more than enough rockling bites but the majority were undersized. Fishing an all ebb tide the ebb did not hang around, marks drained very quickly forcing more than one move along the rocky foreshore.
The evenings early leader at the scales Rob Taylor, Whitby, 2 codlings, 2 rocklings 5 lb 09 oz, his best 2 lb 13½ oz. Last to the scales Denis Thompson, Lythe, with just one codling, but what a nice codling on such a poor night 5 lb 15½ oz. Taking his 3rd HBoFish, and 2nd HFish wins.
Results:- 13 lb 01 oz (Av 1 lb 10 oz)

Secreary's first HFish win
Peter Horbury
High water 19.25hrs, 5.17m, 1018mbar, -1°C, TR 3.2m
Sunday morning, heavy frost, a very cold SSWesterly wind 9 - 15mph, set the tone for the rest of the day. Sea state, flat, a scratching match for the ten members down to fish. Fishing the last 1½hrs of flood, and 2½hrs of ebb, piers and cliff marks were popular as were the local beaches with members, and members from other local clubs. By match start there was some sporadic Northerly swell sets which were reported could be up to 3ft, but the majority of the time it was flat calm.
Heavy cloud cover, it was a long, cold 4hrs waiting for the fish to bite, especially over slack water. Two hook traces for the first two hours until the ebb took hold, and then switch to 5/0 J, 3/0 circle pennel rigs for the best chance of a codling or two. A visit from a badger kept one on ones toes, and alert.
At the scales 6 members returned with a rare assortment of fish - 11 whitings, 3 haddock, 2 codlings, 2 rocklings, 1 dab, & 1 flounder for 15 lb 08 oz - 11 oz/fish average. The first time local beaches had produced some fish - dab, flounder & whiting.
Man of the Match Secretary Peter Horbury, Whitby, with both HBoFish 4 lb 11 oz (3), and his first HFish win - 4 lb 01½ oz. It was still twitching in the weigh-pan, as it had be landed at 21.55hrs.

Two in a row for Horbury
Peter Horbury
High water 21.45hrs, 4.5m, 1002mbar, 2°C, TR 20m
All flooding tide for Wednesday evening’s midweek 3hr match. High water 21.45hrs, a neap tide, just 2.0 metres between high & low water. Catch forecast for the eleven members fishing was low, yet another scratching match. A gentle, but cold NWesterly wind 10mph max, the calm before Storm Éowyn hits at the weekend. Sea state, flat but when the weak swells caught up there were some sporadic Northerly swell sets 1-2ft [very similar to last Sunday].
Members were spread far and wide, beaches, piers and cliff marks, just a single codling or rockling would be enough. A codling in the bag before 19.30hrs, and things were looking promising! Not another codling bite, just rocklings, and they were undersized. Others reported just lobster and crab bites. The evening’s full cloud cover soon lifted and the temperature dropped with a frost forming on the grass.
At the scales just 3 members were successful, albeit very poor, 1 codling, 1 blegg, and 2 rocklings for 4 lb 15 oz. Man of the Man for the second time in as many days Secretary Peter Horbury, Whitby the only codling 2 lb 09 oz, which was also the HFish of the match. Peter now has 4 HBoFish wins and 2 HFish wins.
Results:- 4 lb 15 oz (Av 1 lb 04 oz)

Horbury 3rd HFish win in a row
Peter Horbury
Low water 20.15hrs, 2.14m, 979mbar, 6°C, TR 2.5m
Storm Éowyn had passed as another low pressure system came into play, strong wind and heavy rain forecast. On cue wind speeds had steadily been increasing all afternoon. The rain started to fall at dusk, and got steadily heavier - torrential by match start.
SSWesterly winds had whipped up some localised, close to shore, SSWesterly swell 1-2ft. Unfortunately a neap tide, LWater 20.15hrs, and access to marks was severely restricted, only 2½ metres difference between low & high water. Just seven fishing and braving the inclement conditions for 4hrs.
With the wind strength the rain was nye on horizontal, wild, and very uncomfortable, kit bags and gloves drenched before the match even started, but not cold! Within the hour it was time for a move to a more sheltered mark [if there was such a place!!]. The ebb was fast, wind and tide in tandem. The best chance of reaching the fish involved wading through the shallows as the ebb had reached its limit.
Around 20.00hrs the rain stopped, and the wind eased, bites could be felt. No longer any-need to have the rod tip in the water watching for any movement. By 20.30hrs, a weigh-in secured, and no further bites on the flood probably because the weed started to came in on the tide.
Man of the Match, his 3rd, Treasurer Dave Perrett, Whitby, 2 codlings 3 lb 14½ oz, and for the ‘3rd match in a row’ HFish fell to Secretary Peter Horbury, Whitby, 3 lb 06 oz.
At the scales, Bernard Vasey reported catching his two fish in the first hour, Dave Perrett reported his caught on 2nd & 3rd casts, and Peter reported landing an undersized codling [2mm] before 19.30hrs.
Results:- 10 lb 06 oz (Av 2 lb 01 oz)

Low water 22.26hrs, 1.12m, mbar, 2°C, TR 4.2m
Late afternoon a growing sea led to disappointment for Wednesday’s 3hr evening match. WNWesterly winds, gusting 25mph, made for a growing Northerly, by HWater 16.00hrs, 4-6ft with little to no colour. But on the ebb, with wind against tide, the swell was knocked right back, creating unwelcome surging.
The swell dropped off further once the depth of water over the outer reefs shallowed. Periods of calm and then a surge bringing 1ft swell sets through was not enough. It was very hard, a fast ebbing tide, surging, no colour, the fish just were not there. Those that did pick-up a fish [or two/three] did very well. It is also that time of year were fish move off to spawn in deeper waters.
At the scales just 6 of the 11 fishing had a weigh-in, 9 codlings for 20 lb 02 oz. Man of the Match Bernard Vasey took both HBoFish and HFish 3 lb 08½ oz. Bernard was very lucky with one of his catch. Playing it into the shallows near his bag, it became unhooked. Having tried to unsuccessfully gather it up, recounted that he ended up sat on the scaur, in water where he managed to gather up his catch.
That concludes January’s fishing, Angler of the Month was Secretary Peter Horbury 30 lb 05 oz [13] in second Treasurer Dave Perrett 18 lb 01 oz [12].

Marine Drive, Scarborough 09.00hrs
Cloughton Rocks victorious
Low water 12.34hrs, 1.27m, 1019mbar, 6°C, TR 4.1m
Sunday morning 48 anglers from 5 local Clubs gathered at the Oasis Café, Marine Drive for registration to compete for The Scarborough inter-angling-clubs Challenge Trophy, nee the Bell Trophy. Organised and run by South Cliff and Scarborough Rocks. Fishing was from 11.00 - 15.00hrs, weigh-in by 16.00hrs at Scarborough Rocks Social Club.
The winning team would be determined by the highest aggregate weight, with 8 being the fewest team members possible.
This year was special as it was the 100th time the event had been held. And to celebrate Pete Dunn had donated a special trophy “The Dunn Trophy”, this would be awarded to the captor of the single heaviest fish.
Conditions were far from favourable, SSWesterly winds gusting 40mph. Sea state 0-1 ft Northerly, plenty of colour. A cold start until the wind dropped and the sun came out. The only saving grace was the tide, LWater 12.55hrs, 1.2 metres enabling all to fish the tangle beds and gullies of their choice. Bites were few and far between with some reporting not a single bit all day.
At the scales 11 anglers weighed-in 12 fish - 22 lb 08 oz 12 drms [or 5772 drms] winners were Cloughton Rocks [9th time of asking] with an aggregate 1 lb 01 oz 01 drm. The HFish fell to David Gyte, South Cliff & Rocks 5 lb 08 oz 04 oz who received The Dunn Trophy. David also had the HBoFish.

09.05hrs Sandsend
Horbury takes honours
Peter Horbury
High water 21.05 hrs, 5.09m, 1042mbar, -1°C, TR 3.1m
High pressure clearly in charge, if it were not so cold, it could have past as a summer’s day. Bright, and cloudless day with endless sunshine. Sea state however was flat, bar slight close to shore SEasterly, ½ft at best, a scratching match for the 8 fishing. A very cold Westerly breeze 9-16mph, clear skies [plenty of time for some star gazing], it was not long before the ground frost started to show.
Fishing the last 2hrs of flood, and the start of the ebb on a neap tide the two flapper rigs were the rig of choice, and fish for is likely to be in front. On the piers, as it turned out, very little. Whitings were not even present, only dogger [crabs], two at a time one member reported. Cliff marks, fishing the close to shore tangle beds could throw out a rockling or at best a codling. Wind chill made baiting up a quick task, especially when doubling-up on the two hook flappers.
Match fishing on a night like this is not everyones choice but needs must the 2/0’s were put to use. First cast a brace of rocklings, off to a start for a weigh-in. Another brace next cast only one size, and nothing [not even a bite] until 21.56hrs, a codling on a 2/0!!
At the scales the messages of ‘gone home’ were received, as only 3 members weighed-in - 2 codlings, 4 rocklings and a billet for a grand total of 8 lb 08 oz. Man of the Match with both HBoFish & HFish Secretary Peter Horbury, a codling 4 lb 02 oz and 3 rocklings for a 5 lb 04½ oz bag.
Peter now has 4X HBoFish wins and 5X HFish wins.
Results:- 8 lb 08 oz (Av 1 lb 08 oz)

13.45hrs Sandsend - very cold easterly winds
Taylor’s patience pays off
Rob Taylor
Low water 20.15hrs, 1.8m, 1038mbar, 6°C, TR 3.0m
High pressure continues to dominate, drawing in an Easterly cold snap over the last few days. ENEasterly winds gusting 40mph did not help casting, and bite detection, dragging end gear into snags. Sea state, also ENEasterly, close to shore swell [close set, more surface blash than a good ground swell] with little to no colour it was going to be a hard night. Ten members fishing the 4hr evening match as the afternoons get noticeably lighter. Fishing down to low water, on a neap tide, and then 1¾hrs of flood.
Right from the start there was some surging but the wind was the main problem, cold, with the occasional down poor of rain, at one point thought to be hail. The ebb was fast and far exceeded the tabled 1.8 metre, much closer to 1.0 metres. Enabling members to get further down the open scaurs. The start of the flood was an hour late so members had the benefit of fishing the better marks for longer, but this was not reflected in the weigh-in.
At the scales members were keen to get inside, and warm up as the rain had set in. Man of the Match Rob Taylor, Whitby, 3 codlings, his best 4 lb 04½ oz for a bag of 8 lb 07½ oz. Both weights now set the bench for February’s Monthly Sweeps. Rob reported he had to be very patient when retrieving his best fish. It got its head down in amongst the rocks, and had to wait until it pulled itself free.
Rob has 3X HBoFish, & 4X HFish wins, and was the only mover on the Leader Board - up to 3rd Place.
Results:- 25 lb 10 oz (Av 1 lb 10 oz)

High water 16.00hrs Sandsend
Harland five times a winner
Brian Harland
Low water 22.36hrs, 0.99m, 1025mbar, 3°C, TR 4.4m
The cold snap continues, ENEasterly winds, and ENEasterly sea state 4-6ft with little to no colour. Fishing the last 3hrs of ebb down to low water 0.99 metres. An opportunity to get right down to the thick of the tangle beds, and gullies as fish drop out of the rocky foreshore. The wind 20mph did increase slightly towards the end of the 3hr match, with wind chill, stood out on the open scaurs it was a cold match.
Slight surging as the tide pushed back on a fast ebb. Marks soon drained off forcing a move, as other marks opened out. Despite the ideal tide, welcome swell, the results were poor blamed on time of year as fish are now spawning in deeper waters. Of the 6 members fishing only 4 had a weigh-in, all codlings.
No chance of seeing the full Snow moon, heavy cloud cover not a chink anywhere!!
Man of the Match, with both HBoFish & HFish Brian Harland, Whitby 7 lb 09 oz & 3 lb 12½ oz respectively. Brian has won 5x HBoFish & 5x HFish.
Jason Ebison took a fall/trip and snapped the tip of his rod off, but carried on fishing.
Results:- 12 lb 12 oz (Av 2 lb 02 oz)

Peter Horbury receives the tankard from Mick Chadwick

Low water 12.30hrs, 1.48m, 1024mbar, 3°C, TR 3.9m
Sunday was ‘The Secretary’s Challenge Trophy’ day where Cloughton Rocks & Whitby Sea Anglers compete for the tankard [donated by Peter Horbury in 2016]. Every year the two Clubs take turns to host the match, this year it was Cloughton’s turn.
Each Club puts £50 into the prize pool, and each competitor £5. The Club with the best aggregate wins the trophy. The prize pool is split 50/50 for three prizes for both HBoFish & HFish, split 50/30/20, all in, all out.
Typical February, the weather was cold and very inclement, with rain, drizzle and hail showers [big coat and thick gloves] very unpleasant at times. The SEasterly wind, gusting 20mph+, hampered casting and bite detection. Sea state colourless, a scratching match on a growing SEasterly, once the flood took hold, up to 6ft at times. Fishing from 10.00 - 16.00hrs low water 12.30hrs, with the boundary Robinhoods Bay, Landing Scaur to Coble Landing, Filey. As it happened each Club had 11 members fishing.
The weigh-in was at The Red Lion, Cloughton where Chris France, instead of resting his new knee, gave up his Sunday afternoon to oversee proceedings - thank you.
The weigh-in was sparse, 5 codlings and a blegg from six anglers - 14 lb 13 oz, Av 2 lb 08 oz. Cloughton weighed-in 2 codlings for 4 lb 15 oz giving a 7 oz aggregate. Whitby weighed-in 3 codlings, and a blegg for 9 lb 14 oz giving a winning aggregate of 14 oz.
HBoFish winners & Ditto HFish winners:
Sunday was ‘The Secretary’s Challenge Trophy’ day where Cloughton Rocks & Whitby Sea Anglers compete for the tankard [donated by Peter Horbury in 2016]. Every year the two Clubs take turns to host the match, this year it was Cloughton’s turn.
Each Club puts £50 into the prize pool, and each competitor £5. The Club with the best aggregate wins the trophy. The prize pool is split 50/50 for three prizes for both HBoFish & HFish, split 50/30/20, all in, all out.
Typical February, the weather was cold and very inclement, with rain, drizzle and hail showers [big coat and thick gloves] very unpleasant at times. The SEasterly wind, gusting 20mph+, hampered casting and bite detection. Sea state colourless, a scratching match on a growing SEasterly, once the flood took hold, up to 6ft at times.

Brace of codlings for Harland
Brian Harland
High water 19.59hrs, 4.78m, 1013mbar, 3°C, TR 2.78m
Aurora Borealis ‘Yellow’ notifications had been pinging all afternoon, and alas an amber alert 20.00hrs but not a chance of seeing anything 100% cloud cover. SSEasterly breeze moving more Southerly during the match was very cold, and increased in strength, thankfully, at 21.45hrs - home time. Sea state SEasterly 2-3ft with little to no colour. Fishing the last hour of flood and two back for 12 seniors and 1 junior.
Half term and parking in town was not an option to be able to fish the piers, not a space to be found! Cliff marks and local beaches were popular marks of choice. Catch forecast was low, so possibly try somewhere new or travel? Bites were few and far between, which was reflected at the weigh-in.
Of the 13 fishing just 6 returned with a fish, but true to form Brian Harland, Whitby, returned with 2 codlings for HBoFish 6 lb 13 oz which included the HFish of the night 3 lb 15 oz. Two other 3 lb’ers were weighed-in, Steve Ingleston 3 lb 02 oz and Rob Taylor 3 lb 01 oz, nice fish for this time of year.
Congratulations and a big well done went to Roman Chadwick (Jnr), from those at the weigh-in. Roman is one of two juniors to enrol this season, weighed-in his first fish, a codling of 1 lb 04 oz. Fishing with his father Eric, played and landed the fish himself.
Rob ‘Tink’ Taylor is the latest to join the 100 lb Club.
Results:- 17 lb 00 oz (Av 2 lb 07 oz)

Perrett surprise bag
Dave Perrett
Low water 18.43hrs, 2.49m, 1006mbar, 10°C, TR 1.69m
Sunday evenings 4hr match was wild and inclement to say the least, SSWesterly winds gusting 50mph+, brought rain and hail. Just 5 members elected to fish the all flood match. Sea state ‘flat’, no colour - a scratching match, full cloud cover was the only saving grace.
A couple tried the local beach (trying to get out of the wind) for flatties and whitings with no joy. Being such an inclement day, and the last day of half term, the car parks were relatively empty, a chance to try a pier for a weigh-in.
Fishing a 5/0 ‘J’ & a 3/0 circle, and a two hook 2/0 flapper rig on alternate casts the matched started well - a rockling second cast which had taken both 2/0 hooks. Two 6” pin codlings foul hooked, and returned, and last cast a 3rd rockling.
At the scales Man of the Match Dave Perrett, Whitby, 3 codlings, and 2 rocklings 9 lb 09 oz, inc. HFish 4 lb 04½ oz. Dave has 4x HBoFish wins and 5x HFish wins. His ‘HBoFish win’ now leads February’s Monthly Sweep, while Davey Turnbull still has HFish 4 lb 10 oz, Sun 16th.
Results:- 10 lb 08 oz (Av 1 lb 05 oz)

15.00hrs Sandsend nee the Mediterranean Sea
Horbury ends month with wins
Low water 21.25hrs, 1.22m, 1008mbar, 5°C, TR 4.9m
High water 15.00hrs and the sea state resembled the Mediterranean Sea, mirror flat, yet another scratching match to end the month. The saving grace for the 3hr match was low water 21.25hrs, a 1.22 metre ebb. A chance for members to fish a favourable mark, and possibly catch a codling or two!
The star gazing for the planets alignment would have to wait, 100% cloud cover. A slight bit of lift on along the far, far away frontal scaur escarpments. A chance of a codling, only to catch a rockling first cast on a 5/0! - a weigh-in. At 20.00hrs a cold Northerly breeze picked up, and time for a move as another LWater mark had opened out. First cast there and a codling, thereafter just bait robbers, lobster and crab bites.
At the scales Man of the Match, Secretary Peter Horbury with both HBoFish 2 lb 09½ oz (2) and HFish 2 lb 02½ oz.
Peter now has 6X HBoFish, and 5X HFish wins,

HBoFish & HFish for Perrett
High water 17.35hrs, 6.0m, 1033mbar, 8°C, TR 5.5m
For meteorologists, spring begins March 1, and in real terms the covers came off the ‘parking meters’ which for some limited access to HWater marks [tight Yorkshire men]. Yet another scratching match, sea state 0-1ft Northerly with little to no colour on the biggest tidal range of the month 5.5 metres. Match started ½hr after HWater, and was expected to ebb very fast [0.45m at midnight]. Match started in daylight, just six members fishing.
Such a big tide, not everyones cup of tea!
Full cloud cover and a light SWesterly breeze but not cold as temperature just into single digits. The swells were just strong enough to push through the ebb and give some welcome close to shore lift. Match started promising, a codling second cast, but there after just bait robbers. 2nd to last cast, a rockling completed a welcome weigh-in on such a hard night.
At the scales just 3 of the 6 weighed-in 4 codlings, 2 rocklings, 1 billet and a blegg. Man of the Match Dave Perrett with both HBoFish - 6 lb 03 oz, and HFish 2 lb 15 oz.
Results:- 8 lb 15 oz (Av 1 lb 02 oz)

Thompson secures wins
High water 19.48hrs, 5.366m, 1015mbar, 5°C, TR 3.9m
Sandwiched between two low pressure systems the outlook for the 3hr midweek evening match was very poor, another scratching match. Just as the match started the sea state started to grow, some close to shore Northerly swell sets, however they were irregular. Little to no colour, an ideal tide for some to try the beaches in search of a weigh-in. Gentle SWesterly breeze, clear skies, an ideal match for some star gazing to pass the time.
Ten seniors, and a junior fished the last 1¾hrs of flood, and 1¼hrs of ebb. Local piers and cliff marks were popular marks of choice, with a few travelling further afield. Plenty of timid small fish bites, just playing with the baits, not enough tide to force them to take the bait.
At the scales 5 seniors, and a junior returned with 5 codlings, 2 dabs, 2 rocklings, and a flounder - 11 lb 12 oz. Man of the Match Denis Thompson, Lythe, 4 lb 08½ oz (2) with HFish 3 lb 07½ oz, which now leads in the Monthly Sweep.
Results:- 11 lb 12 oz (Av 1 lb 03 oz

12.00hrs Sandsend, very misty, cold easterly breeze
Hambley HFish of the Month lead
Low water 16.02hrs, 1.99m, 1006mbar, 6°C, TR 2.4m
The sea fret had not lifted all day, driven by a cool onshore Easterly breeze, which turned into a real ‘pea souper’ mid match. Sea state, a slow growing long distance Northerly 1-2ft on the flood, with little to no colour. A neap tide, LWater an hour after match start, another scratching match for the seven fishing.
Best chance of a weigh-in, alternate between 5/0 J, a 3/0 circle pennel rigs and two hook flapper rigs, and sit out the 4hrs in anticipation. Just 6” pin codlings and rocklings, not a descent codling bite all night. The sea fret was laden with moisture, everything was dripping wet, and getting colder. East pier, started at 19.00hrs, and the only other angler [on either pier] had a rod tip bell ffs! The fog was so thick you struggled to see your lead before casting but those bells kept ringing!
At the scales, a quick weigh-in for Man of the Match Dave Hambley, Staithes [keen to watch MOD] had a single codling 3 lb 10 oz which took both HBoFish & HFish of the night.
Results:- 9 lb 04 oz (Av 1 lb 00 oz)

Horbury & Vasey share wins
Low water 21.39 hrs, 1.12m, 1005mbar, 3°C, TR 4.1m
Back 1997 on this day Bernard Vasey landed the fish of his life 20 lb 06 oz from Whitby’s East pier. The conditions were near flat bar a slight roll.
Conditions for the 3hr mid-week match were far from ‘calm’. Long distance Northerly ground swell 8-10 ft, thick with colour pushed on by artic Northerly winds gusting 30mph. Full cloud cover and 0.4mm of rain forecast. Amber & Red alerts for an aurora, along with the Worm moon [due on the 14th] no chance of even a glimpse.
Low water 21.39hrs, 1.1 metres, wishful thinking a chance to fish those favourite gully’s and tangle beds, however the elements had other ideas, with wind against tide, the surging was heavy. The wind grew in strength, the skies darkened and the heavens opened, it was brutal!! With a rockling in the bag 2nd cast, it was getting harder to stand let alone fish, a decision to move to a more [hopefully] sheltered mark paid off [for a short while].
By 21.00hrs the wind shifted, bringing hale, and rain. And as one member asked “just confirm we go fishing for enjoyment?” It was not pleasant, coats and gloves failed as the rain found a way in. A codling at 21.45hrs, no time to refresh the bait, just cast it back out into the now flooding tide, and within 5mins a second codling.
At the scales [confirmation of all who had already gone home to dry out] just 4 of the 11 fishing had a very meagre weigh-in 3 codlings & 3 rocklings for 4 lb 13 oz. Man of the Match for the 7th time Secretary Peter Horbury 2 codlings, 1 rockling for 2 lb 11 oz. His best 1 lb 04 oz was beaten to HFish of the night 1 lb 09 oz from Bernard Vasey, his 4th.
Memorable moment contender:-
Rich Deadman very nearly didn’t fish the match having packed the butt from one rod, and the top from another. A quick phone call home & Rich collected a complete rod from Peter Horbury’s home, and was fishing by 19.25hrs.
Results:- 4 lb 13 oz (Av 13 oz

Both wins for Ebison
High water 17.47hrs, 5.47m, 1030mbar, 5°C, TR 4.4m
Sunday evenings 4hr match started in daylight, full cloud cover, and a brisk NEasterly wind 14-22mph. Sea state, close to shore, Northerly swell 3ft at best with colour. 0.1mm of rain was forecast, and thankfully it held off. Match started 40mins after HWater, and as LWater 23.38hrs, 1.1 metres, the tide was expected to rip out, but the wind against tide slowed the ebb down. Catch forecast for the 9 members fishing was low, with just 4 matches left until close of season, members are looking forward to it.
There was no shelter from the NEasterly wind which hampered casting and bite detection. Bites were few and far between, for two members it was a competition as to who could land the largest dogger or brown crab!!
Denis Thompson - V - Bernard Vasey, Bernard eventually won with a brown crab!
At the scales only 3 of the 9 had another meagre weigh-in to show for the 4hrs fishing - 2 rocklings, 1 codling, 1 billet and a blegg. Man of the Match Jason Ebison, Whitby, 1 codling [HFish of the night - 1 lb 12 oz] 1 blegg and a rockling. Jason has 3x HBoFish wins, and 6x HFish wins.

Harland, in the last 5mins
High water 18.51hrs, 5.00m, 1021mbar, 4°C, TR 3.4m
Wednesday morning, high pressure, glorious sunshine, blue skies, dare we dream of summer? The mornings sea state, residual Northerly which died off on the ebb by midday, by HWater 19.00hrs, match start, there was a close to shore 1½ft SEasterly with colour Catch forecast was extremely low for the 7 fishing.
Cliff marks and piers were popular for the 3hrs to secure just a simple weigh-in. Gentle SSWesterly breeze, a thin mist masked an otherwise cloudless sky, at 20.00hrs an amber alert for an aurora. Shafts of white light could be seen by the naked eye but no colours for the ½hr it was visible.
Bites galore all match, just bait robbers tearing baits to pieces. Landed, four undersized rocklings and a 23cm pin codling [all returned] but nothing else, and a common theme reported from all after the weigh-in.
Man of the Match, with both HBoF & HF Brian Harland, Whitby with a single codling 1 lb 11 oz, landed at 21.55hrs, just as he was about to call it a night, & pack-up! Dave Perrett & Col Stainthorpe had a billet and 2 rocklings respectively.

Sunday’s evening match started in daylight, neap tide just 1.6 metres difference between high & low water. An all flood match, 8ft Easterly swell, with little to no colour, fish not expected to bite until darkness due to water clarity. Brisk, cold Northerly wind, gusting 20mph - a cross wind hampering casting, with bowed lines acting like sails. Dragging end tackle into snags.
Ten members fishing, just this match, and 2 more, a chance to increase a lead or make up a deficit. Swell sets were playing catch-up with the tide, long periods of calm, then a rush of swell sets, and repeat. Tackle loss was high, a lighter bag for the ascent!
Rob Taylor hooked a ‘good fish’, only for his hook snood to snap/cut, half way in the retrieve [if only there was a cartoonist, the caption bubble would have been full of symbols]. After the weigh-in there followed a debate on the ‘pros & cons of pennel rigs’. Pennel rigs can invert and the ‘J’ fouled on the main line, which if a fish takes the ‘circle’ could lead to the barb of the ‘J’ cutting the fine - fish lost.
At the scales, a short ceremony, just 3 weighed-in - 3 codlings, and a rockling. Man of the Match with both HBoFish & HFish Brian Harland, Whitby, a single codling 3 lb 03½ oz. Brian now has 8 wins for both HBoF & HF.
The seasons weigh-in past 1,000 lb [for 630 fish].
Results:- 6 lb 06 oz (Av 1 lb 10 oz

Tinker, Taylor fisherman
Rob Taylor
Low water 20.12hrs, 1.5m, 1021mbar, 5°C, TR 3.31m
The penultimate match of the 2024-2025 Season 11 members fishing the 3hr midweek match. Welcome long distance Northerly ground swell 3-4ft, however the late arrival meant crystal clear water, green in the sunlight. Brisk SWesterly winds 15mph, a very mild 8°C, 20% cloud cover. A red alert for an aurora had been received late afternoon, and another at the start of the match [which was short lived]. Clouds on the horizon masked what colour could be seen through the gaps.
With Low water mid match a chance to fish the gullies & tangle beds. However to reach them, no one likes surging, especially on the ebb as it gives a false sense of security to move forward to 'bag-rock’. Patience paid off by match start, bag-rock reached.
A couple of rocklings [typical in such clear waters], bites were few and far between. By 20.30hrs with an absence of codlings, a decision to move, a ¾ mile hike across the now drained scaurs to another mark. With the surging the flood pushed in very fast, producing a couple of codlings.
Despite the welcome sea state the weigh-in reflected the time of year as the season draws to a close - 6 codlings, 3 rocklings from 5 of the 11 fishing. Man of the match Rob Tink Taylor, Whitby 3 codlings, inc HFish 2 lb 08½ oz for 4 lb 15 oz. No movement on the Leader Board, just one match left to defend a position or make a gain.
The season’s weigh-in average has increased to 1 lb 12 oz.
Contender Memorable Moment - It later transpired speaking of bag-rock.
Bag rock is somewhere safe to locate your bag, bait up and then walk/wade to where you want to cast. On returning to bag-rock Jason Ebison came across a large seal blocking his only path. He had to scare the seal off by making a lot of noise!!
Results: - 10 lb 13 oz (Av 1 lb 03 oz

Harland crowned champion
Brian Harland receives the Lord Downe trophy from Secretary Peter Horbury
High water 17.30hrs, 6.00m, 1026mbar, 5°C, TR 5.66m
BST, last match of the season, high water 17.30hrs a growing Northerly ground swell [with colour], & swinging N-NWesterly winds 8-30mph with minimal cloud cover, very mild. Largest tide of the month 5.7 metres between HWater & LWater. The ebb was predicted to be fast over the 4hr evening match. Darkness fell at 20.00hrs.
Just 8 members fishing, catch forecast was low, last chance to protect a lead or make up a deficit. Plenty of small fish bites just a lack of codlings which did not improve once darkness fell as the ebb was now in full retreat. By 21.00hrs it had killed off the swell, time to start packing up, and face the long climb and walk back to the car, a disappointing finale.
At the scales Man of the Match Jason Ebison, 1 billet & a rockling 2 lb 00 oz. HFish of the night fell to Rob Taylor 1 lb 05½ oz. Jason has 6x HBoFish wins while Rob has 4 HFish wins.
Brian Harland weighed-in 3 rocklings, and accepted the Lord Downe winner’s trophy from Secretary Peter Horbury. This is the fourth time Brian has won the championship. Brian [like everyone else] was unable to maintain the 5 lb Av weigh-in, and finished the season - 3 lb 08 oz match Av weigh-in. Which lead to an Av fish of 1 lb 09 oz.
STATS:-
March’s catch - 64 fish - 65 lb 14 oz [Av 1 lb]
28 codlings, 27 rocklings, 4 billets, 2 bleggs, 2 dabs, 1 flounder.
