Angler missing blackhall rocks

[Andy 1985]

Alright lads/ lasses ive just read this on the WSF forum (thread "missing fisherman" info provided by Chloesdad73)
A MAJOR search has been launched after a fisherman went missing off the coast.

An RAF Sea King helicopter has been joined by police, coastguards and mountain rescue team after the fisherman was reported missing off the Blackhall coast..

Teesdale & Weardale Search and Mountain Rescue Team leader Dave Bartles-Smith said: "The fisherman is believed to have been fishing near Blackhall Rocks.

"Fifteen mountain rescue personnel from Teesdale and Weardale and the Cleveland mountain rescue team are working with the Coastguard, police and an RAF Sea King helicopter to locate the gentleman".

I hope he is found safe and well
