Couple of hours at the ratty today

[Dogrunner]

Fished the ratty for a couple of hours today using a bit of razor, squid and mackie left over from last nights trip to lynemouth.

There must have been 20 rods out when I arrived but managed to find a spot beneath the railings and fired out a clipped 2 hook flapper baited with a little cocktail of the above.

The fishing was nothing special, I caught a few crabs and 2 whiteys of about size but they were very very skinny, certainly not worth taking for the table so they were safely returned.

Chatted to a few others fishing when I arrived and there had been a few pin codling, small flatties and some reasonable whiteys caught but nothing worth getting excited about. Hopefully fishing the flood may bring the lads down there better luck.

Ps.....Roker pier was shut today?!?!!......why oh why I'll never know, the sea was flat calm.

Cheers

called off at the ratty this morning after seeing Roker pier was shut,rang the resorts office t see if the pier would be opening and was told it was closed all day and to ring back tomorrow to see if it will be open.
Dont know why it was closed as the sea was as flat as a fart!!!
