Sea Spray On Top – Whitby Fishing Festival

Whitby Fishing Festival Day 6 Results

Day six saw most of the Whitby charter boats at sea. Many fished at distance but once again it was John Whitton who showed you never need to go far to find a decent fish. John fished the Hawsker highlight ground at about 2.5 mile from port and this tactic paid dividends with all anglers getting a good supply of cod. But it was not just quantity for Johns anglers as Local lad Tony Bullivent caught an excellent fish of over 10 pounds which gave him first place on the day.

Tony Bullivent – Whitby- Cod 10-11.5 – Never Can Tell A
