3 mackrel whats the world coming to!:o Though they were outlawed in club matches and opens ! Corr you,ll have some cracking weigh ins this next few weeks :D
 
the club allows a maximum of three mackerel, and the lad actually caught them fair and square on lug and maccy strip at the middle toilets on blyth beach. i think eveyone was suprised.

tynemouth also has a small limit on mackerl ,steve hardy had 3 on blyth beach fishing for whiting ,if your tipping off with maccy or bluey no surprise. davy:red:
 
makes you feel sick when you go out for the cod and have it beat by macky for heaviest fish :s, the same happened the other week along time member caught macky but thought it was daft to weight them in so put them back (he knew the rules and knew he could weight them in).... i would do the same to be honest.
They shouldnt allow it but hey ho thats the way it goes i guess, just hope i dont see one on the next weight in other wise am on the pier spinning lol
 
This has exposed a loophole in our rules as the 3 mackeral limit is only for the summer league. It has never been necessary for the winter league until now so any caught are within our rules and fair game.

As SIDBLANK mentions the ones caught this week were not targeted just a bonus when fishing on the beach for flatties.
 
I had one very upset lad with me after the weigh in on wednesday:D lol which i do see his side to having his codling beat by a macky in a match....... just saying it doesnt sound right lol but i guess rules are rules even if they do suck!!

Any chance of the loophole getting adjusted next year?:cool:

i aint fussing lol its just one of them things aint it.... not your fault the you got hf with a macky its the stupid loophole. putting mine and ians thought across about the loophole has nothing against you, straight to the point i dont think they would be weighed in at all.

Chris kell did have a bigger coalie but what am saying has nothing to do with who wins as am on about the loophole.:cool:
 
mackerel

mackerel

3 mackerel whats the world coming to!:o Though they were outlawed in club matches and opens ! Corr you,ll have some cracking weigh ins this next few weeks :D[/QUOT can not understand why a sea fish can be outlawed in a competition. if mackerel are there then why can thay not be weighed in. after all its a sea fishing competition and the mackerel is a sea fish i think :confused:any way i would rather eat a mackerel than a flounder any day:)theirs more to sea fishing than COD :mad:
 
the thing with mackrel is its a bait that we all use , i emphsise Bait , heres one for you (devils advocate) a guy walks onto a beach with three or four mackrel as bait which he caught earlier on the day and catches nothing during his comp whats to stop him weighing them in? not gutted , even if there as stiff as boards all mackrel are after ten mins of killing.
