    Good luck on your first run out Graham. I’m keeping an eye on the weather forecast and if it looks OK will be out on Saturday from mid morning adding to flotilla at the can.
    When I was there a couple of weeks ago, lug worm easily outfished rag, probably because it puts out a better scent trail in the dirty water. I’ll anchor in anywhere between 35 and 60ft of water, usually well inshore of the can on the edge of one of the drop-offs or ledges. Casting a bait and small breakaway lead away from the boat works well, keeping the bait on the bottom without it being pulled into a snag as the boat swings on the tide and wind.
    I’ll be on “Wor Lass” listening on ch6, 8 and 16, come and say hello if you’re passing.

    Look out for the fireworks at South Shields if you’re still out at 20:00.

        Graham, Anywhere inshore of the can usually produces fish. Fish for a while. then when it goes quiet, move a short distance and start again. If there is no tide, then just drift fish as long as you are not drifting too fast, you will pick up fish.

          Peeped out the window this morning to find a thick blanket of fog, so nipped down to the seafront to have a look at the sea conditions. Couldn't even see the sea, but could hear the waves on the shore. Times getting on now and have other commitments this afternoon, so wont be bothering today, but should be out Saturday instead. Good luck to anyone else out Saturday.
          Gramas, will give you a shout on channel 6. My boats name is Lazy Daze.
