Looks like there might be a bit sunshine for tomorrow (if the forcast is right). Tad cold though and I can't find my bloody gloves.

Anyone know if the river is coloured up with the bit rain we've had ?

is it just soft lures tomorrow lads?

I'll be taking everything just in case. Be chucking out the big rod with a couple of isomes on and playing with my spinning rod. That could all change when i get there though. Might even try floating some jellys

How many fish were caught and were they all flounders, not seen any reports yet

 

[phill_itofish]

About a dozen flounder caught between us before i left.

 

[big phil 123]

plenty of flounderd and a whitey in the hour i was down these lads are clued up unlike me lol

 

[phill_itofish]

Thanks to everyone who turned out, it was good to put some faces to names and exchange some ideas. If the next meet goes as well as this one we'll all be top of the table.

Cheers for the turn-out fella's, as it been said a number of times is great to put the names to the faces. Quite a successful session for most, Flounders on the board for a few people now! If you blanked (like me!!!) there's no shame in it whatsoever, remember we are all learning! Stick with it and you'll get your rewards! Some good tips and advice exchanged today too.

The whole point of today was to introduce people to fishing with Soft Plastics, and to prove that fish can actually be caught on artificial's in the Winter in the North East! Regardless of technique they actually work. Over the next few months we can explore different venues and different techniques, so I hope everyone that came today will stick with it and join us the next time.

This is probably the toughest time of year to fish with Lures, so those of you that caught well done, the Spring and Summer are only going to bring more fun and more species!

Nice to hear that the session today went well, I'd love to come to the next meet up myself. Is there a way of getting an invite to the next meet up?

When in moonfleet on Saturday I bought some of the white isomes (think i spoke to you wreckingball?) and today whilst fishing the amble open on warkworth beach I baited one of the 3 hooks on my flapper with half a isome worm. I used rag and lug on the other hooks tipped with mackie and would you believe it but I caught 2 decent flounder - both on the isomes, I got nothing on the fresh bait!!!

Obviously I didn't win the open but I didn't blank unlike some along side me!

Keep the reports coming lads, great reading!

 

[toonboymc]

Well done Damo (dog runner) I am going to get some of the white ones and try it out on a small spinning rod c wot happens mate

 

[Darnc]

It's got me interested I can't wait to get out fishing again and try some lures

 

[big phil 123]

i was very suprised that these plastics fished not only did they fish theu out fished fresh bait and not scabby rag or lug these were nice big fresh yellow tails well impressed

There are no invites required mate, keep an eye on the posts for the second meet. Its still not finalized yet but should have a date fixed soon. Every one is welcome.

I had a very pleasant afternoon fishing with very good company, will definitely make the next meet. Caught two flounder on my two hook rig at the same time at the start and then repeated it 15 minutes before the end, so 4 caught in total, all on white isomes.

Will put pics up when I've worked out how to do it, thanks to Simon for giving me a Lure Fishing Challenge card. Where would be the best place to post them, in this thread or the catch report?
