I have just had on the scales a 18.6oz cod caught on lug and mussel at beadnell, can not tell you the mark as he is keeping it top secret.
It was caught by a mate of mine allen matthews
cracking fish
As you know we are having the best cod fishing in 50 years according to sea angler HA HA
 
ive just been told about it and was about to put it on here, you beat me to it billy. nice fish well done that man. mr charlton will be over the moon when he hears about this one :D
 
thats a cracking fish.

there are some really good marks up around beadnell, last time i was there the seals were getting the fish off my line before i got them in!
as soon as they were around, the bites stopped coming :(

certainly am, was halfway through cooking breakfast when I got the call to go and photograph it. Lovely fish and a personal best.
 
Was talking to a couple of lads on shields pier on monday night and they were saying what a poor season they were having and that they were going up to beadnell area again soon cos it was much better, dunno if it was them but if it was, i bet theyre made up now! cracking fish, well done.

I think you'll find it's the anglers who shoal after a good catch report and not the fish ;)
 
sless see you in beadnell
this months sea angler says on the front page we are now in a cod boom, it is like reading a fishing version of the viz [full of jokes]
 
I Do have a pic of the fish tell me how to send it in and i will do it,
Allan charlton might send in a pic as we had him here doing his bit,and he took some nice pictures of allen and his fish [about time he did some work]
