Well finally started my winter shore fishing with my 1st trip out this year having put the kayak aside till calmer weather and conditions looked good for a sesh at Blyth beach lastnight with airborne.
As I was walking down lads were coming off complaining about the weed and not holding bottom but I was eager to see for myself and enjoy the evening ahead, well setup and put a big peeler bait on and within minutes got a cracking knock and was into a lovely bass
On the scales it came in just over 3lb but it was deep hooked even tho I used a 5/0 so had to keep it, I'd rather have put it back.
The weed was becoming a problem as the night went on but the fish kept coming with a further 5 codling getting caught upto 2lb so not a bad night and a nice welcome back to shore fishing lets hope it continues.
