(someone could also be pullin ya leg mind)oh, nowt till propa dark then whiteys every cast, lug tipped with macky, they wouldn't touch rag. only left as i ran out of bait till next time...........

what size were the whitings

 

[dicky mint]

mainly bairns! one or two slightly bigga and one around the pound mark all returned as you see so many reports on here that they're
riddled with gut worms, i would hate to take a 'keepy' then sling it in the bin cos it was chocka with worms

They're tasty as owt...but every single one I've caught was riddled...best advice is to gut and clean ASAP...on the beach if possible, even then it's not guaranteed

It just about the right time for the whities to show.
Thinking of having a few hours on the beach myself tonight.
