Blyth Pier 3rd July

[The Great Wallsendo]

Well as mentioned in another thread I headed down to Blyth Pier for a spin and a float...met up with Gregg

Anywho t'was as I expected really not overly condusive to puling in macky by the dozen - although there were some getting pulled in at the end (it's the best spot y'knar!!!)

First fish was actually a foul hooked launce

now in my freezer for the Frasers Comp on sunday - it's gonna catch me a lunker

as had been mentioned elsewhere there was lots and lots of small coalies...managed over half a dozen in fact

Even managed a 1/2 pound Pollock - all fish fell to float fished ragworm

All in all a canny night - even tho the macky stayed away

Nice one Tony - haven't seen a pollack (or is it Colin) from the pier for a while. See you've been using the right spinner anyway - apparently that was the one that was doing the business last night. Good luck for sunday mate

for info if you walk 15ft up from the bend and cast straight out 30yards there's something geet snaggy...be it weed or what I dunno, but it's got 4 spinners of mine now

Yeah, there's a snag there at longer range too - it's one spot I rarely fish because of it - a few more yards either way & all's ok. Seems confined to a tight area though - maybe a small patch of rough as I've had the odd lobster out of there. On the other hand could be 5,000 mangled daylights...................

That snag mate is probably the old railings and fence that used to be at the end. I think when the council removed the fence they just chucked it over the side of the pier...so I've heard anyway.
