Was out fishing last night 10.30pm till 10.00am this morning, was with a mate, bait used rag, squid & mac... sea was not choppy just had a nice little roll on, nice breeze too. well we started fishing around 11.30 fished into the channel leadin onto the river & my mate was straight onto a fish (1lb whiten) i was like great! :rolleyes: then he brings in another one (1lb whiten) i was feeling the blank at this stage! then AGAIN! he brings in another one bit smaller this time lol (half lb whiten), then 20mins later i hit into a nice whiten (1lb half) was nice not too blank at this point:D then the wind picked up so we went around the left corner of the Lighthouse fished into cambois side think lol had a few bites but nothing so i moved around the right corner of the Lighthouse fished in the shallow rocks you know what i mean lads? so anyway casted out and bam! my rod goes big bloody bite too, then again it goes again.. so i reeled in with my multiplier was pulling hard fighting a bit then i slowly reeled it up off the 50ft drop off pier! was a CODLING 1lb Half first of the season YEAR! so i was chuffed to bits:D showed me mate straight away n said got the bugger at last! anyway my mate was blankin all the way through morning after catchin 3 whiten. About 6ish i decided to pop my head round and see how my mate was doing not so well like, so i decided to have a cast near his and 2mins after casting i got another CODLING 2lb Quater was even harder to reel up the pier but i managed it. After that just crab biting nothing else left at 10.00.

Pictures below are just of my codling didn have proper camera phone so cudn take the pics on the pier which wud of been better like but anyway enjoy the 2 pics. thanks all for listen/ had fun! 2008 2codling so far lol

BTW the codling have a funny texture to them but thats because i cleaned them too much that i took of the scales think.

right thats enough, stop catching any more and leave some for the rest of us :D

congrats on what turned into a decent session mate
 
Aye its a hike but its worth it if there's fish to be caught... am just happy i got codling! i leave the rest for you lads to catch:D thanks for listen again was a great session:cool:
 
Well done on the fish mate thats good going in these condtions. I saw the 2 of you on the pier this morning. I was fishing the other pier. Did the 2 blokes not ask you to leave?
 
Iv'e walked it once... and that was enough..:D climbing over the concrete windmill supports and lugging your gear over them is a mission.
Done it in the floaty suit and when i got to the end i had sweated 2 stone lighter..:rolleyes:
 
er, dont,t want to spoil the party but in my personel opinion and i,m not looking for controversy here, but the codling are very small and really should have been retured to the sea to let them grow for the future,nice pics and well done on catching them. but they where to small for the table.

Aye you in the red on blyth platform the 2 lads said move our gear just cause they needed to be in the lighthouse cos the fireworks set fire and the electric was off so they were fixing it! said nowt to us bout leaving just asked if we caught owt.

and the fish were ok to eat. eating them now. big enough for me if under 1lb they go back in, dont start this legal **** cant be assed with it:(
 
I was fishing just along from the lad in red mate.
I don't think there is anything wrong with you taking a couple of fish home for the table. You could argue if it was a 20lber you should put it back for someone else to try and catch thier dream fish. If he had taken a dozen just over a 1lb then maybee that's not great but a couple???
What do you think gets weighed in at most club matches and opens? A lot of them are just left at weigh in for organisers to dish out as the angler's don't want them. I didn't say all of them before i get slaughtered lol.
 
well two lads i saw got arrested for being on there not so long ago:( , shortly after the lad fell and fractured his skull :o,even got the helicopter to get folk off one night and the police were waitng at the end off the pier ,we were fishing blyth at the time ,a local said it was cos they were taking the **** going on daytime and he said its the most dangerous place youl ever see.the sea bleezes thru it wen its only a bit rough and big tides much worse ,its not my idea of fishing but thats me i like to live another day :cool:
