fished 4 hours down at druridge today using the yuki continentals .had lots of turbots ect in the past close in but wanted to try the rods at long range,.24 mainline -30lb shockleader and 3oz leads,whacking them out as far as I could,got lots of flatties.no turbot though,used fresh macky,there was one other guy fishing when I got there about 500 yards south of me but he packed up not long after I got there,appart from the odd dog walker I never seen anyone else

Canny session, and nice set up, bet they can really fling the lead out.

thanks for replys lads,nice to get out fishing even if its only for flatties,not much of a report but it is a catch report section--lol.might try cambios tomorrow,think sea is picking up though so might just do the midens,incase of interest I got a fresh macky and a fresh herring from Tesco for bait,never got a fish on the herring.used to use it loads out the bins on fish quay over 40 years ago when I was a kid.didnt work today for me though

not many people on that beach either mate.do you get many plaice from there,i know the 44 mark on the pier throws them out,i get them on the midens and know of a couple of other spots my side of river that's ment to be good for them,when sea has had a few flat days im going to give them a shot

I've never had plaice off the beach, mostly flounders and the occasional dab, (also, on a good day - codling, coley, whitey, rockling, weevers).
 
Good report and pics mate. May get the Yuki Q7 out and have a dabble soon - bought it and never really used it yet.

Do you ever try bluey when scratching for flats - does it work as well as mackerel?
 
Looks a canny day out Peter, certainly better than my day in the office anyways :p

I've had stacks of Flounder on Bluey, also had a nice Turbot (33cm) off Seaham North Pier last March...

I think its probs better but costs more.mind flounders seem to take anything,appart from herring yesterday--lol
