Mixed bag at Druridge

[jarrowviking]

Hi peeps. Not been out fishing for a while due to the strong west winds but just had to get out last night as cabin fever was setting in.

Small tides, west winds, not a good choice though!

Headed up to Druridge Bay in Northumberland for flatties and just maybe the chance of a bass or two. Hooked up with pal Sixo and Dave P on the beach and with a nice surf rolling in things looked spot on.

A six hour sesh on the beach gave us quite a few small bits and pieces including a couple of bass, whiting, coalies, flounder, turbot and rockling. Very enjoyable fishing with great company.

A couple of pics for you.

Bass for Sixo.



One for me! Get in.



Lots of small flounders about, some palm size, Dave P with the best.



All in all was a canny night topped off with a rarity for me, a small Turbot. Excuse the pic, Ha!, was blowing a gale and that turbot was about to turn into a mini kite.



Turned out better than I expected, tightlines, Dave.

Dave; next time you go fishing I want to know when and where because you have a knack of finding fish. Lol

Brilliant!

I always look forward to your posts! I am out tomorrow South of the Tyne. Cabin fever is getting to me too. I admit to staying put also due to the flat seas and the Westerlies. I just need to get out now! My last session produced a 7.12lb Cod but I don't think I'll be holding my breath for another one of those in these conditions! Congratulations on your mixed bag, paricularly the Turbot in less than desirable conditions!
All the best, Wayne.
