Well to say I'm abit shocked at how my night turned out is an understatement, read on lol
Got my bait from Lewis's this morning as usual top knotch worm!!
Got ready and set off to Lynemouth my usual haunt about 2pm found it right on the edge to hold and with the easterly forcast to increase had one cast then decided to set off and have a look at Blyth.
Popped home in Cramlington to dump the tripod and get a sheet then got to Blyth pier at 4pm ish set up camp about 100yards shore side of bend fishing behind breakers with wind break for comfort second cast resulted in a nest on my 535 so on with the slosh30, sorted the 535 pulled in and changed back out it went 5 mins later nod nod then slack picked it up nothing but couldn't get tension so hit it anyway then yes yes yes
pull back with atitude got it to the pier and looked down at it and said to the lad next to me here's a walk to the beach and he very kindly offered to help so he went off ahead to get onto beach walked it to the beach thinkin dont come off!!
