Introducing The Trot-on And Alliance Sea Fishing Charters

Angling Direct is excited and pleased to be working in partnership with two of the top Charter Boats from the famous fishing port of Whitby: Trot-On and Alliance. Throughout the year we’ll be bringing you the latest news and views on the fishing, as well as regular catch reports from both boats, but firstly we thought we’d introduce them.

Trot-on Trot-on, initially purchased to replace the legendary Whitby boat Heather of Burnham, specialises in wreck, reef, and up-tide fishing. With its 400hp engines and a top speed of 25 knots, it’s able to get to the fishing grounds fast! It’s licensed for 10 anglers and its large deck space offers a comfortable fishing experience all year round. Trot-On meets all modern health and safety recommendations, as well as carrying life saving and life preserving equipment as standard. Fast, safe and comfortable - that’s the Trot On promise!

Skipper Paul Eddon is Whitby born and bred and has been sea fishing for as long as he can possibly remember. Paul has a lifetime’s experience as a charter boat skipper and, in short, has the knowledge and insight to put you onto the best fish at any time of year. Approachable and always on hand to offer sage advice and guidance to anglers throughout the day’s fishing, Paul is often relied on as the ‘go to’ skipper during the WCSA Angling Festivals. The number of times Trot On anglers have won the top prize is testament to his ability.

In 2015 Paul again won the £5,000 summer festival and enjoyed a practically clean sweep in all sections. He also landed the £1,000 autumn festival and will be going for a hat-trick in this year’s £1000 spring festival, which runs from 2nd-17th April 2016. Paul himself has won more festivals and more prize money than any other skipper fishing out of Whitby and is renowned as Whitbys "big fish skipper" with over 25 years experience.

Alliance

Alliance Alliance, formerly known as the Sea Urchin 2, is the sister vessel to Trot-on and is one of Whitby’s more comfortable boats. A workhorse that is also exceptionally comfortable, Alliance offers deck space coupled with organised storage - giving you more time with your line in the water! Fitted with cutting edge electronics alongside a skipper with a lifetime’s working experience, Alliance offers beginners and experts alike the best chance of getting onto some cracking fish in numbers. With seating, on-board microwave, and tea and coffee readily available, the Alliance is the most ‘angler friendly’ boat in the harbour.

Trot-on-5

Skipper Shaun Elwick is well known in Whitby for his ability to put both visiting and local anglers onto some great fishing. Whether complete novice or a lifetime angler, Shaun gives100% to ensure your day afloat is some of the best Whitby boat fishing the port has to offer. He brings a lifetime of experience with him on every trip, having worked as both a charter skipper and crew hand for over 30 years on boats such as Alliance’s sister vessel, Trot On, and Colin Freeman’s Saxon Lady. He knows the ground and wrecks off Whitby like the back of his hand and, as such, knows the intricate details, such as tide size and seasons, that can make a mark fish at its very best. Shaun welcomes experts and novices alike and is generous in sharing the immense angling knowledge he has gained throughout his lifetime. Whether it’s big autumn ling, powerful pollock on jellies, or the hectic summer cod fishing – Shaun will always endeavour to put you onto the best fishing and best fish available on the day.
