well our xmas fair was called of lastnight with weather but me & keith had bait sorted so headed up north 6pm. got 2 our mark & we were plagued by coalie bites :roll: i managed 2 hook in2 one of them but it was undersize so we walked 300yrds 2 another great mark it is also a good named mark 4 the night we had ahead of us (the fingers) my first chuck i had a canny rattle so set rod but did'nt come back. pulled in & re baited a razor-crab & mussel bait & moved back on2 the next finger as tide was pushing in hard. we were just standing holding on 2 rods hopeing 4 a rod wrencher when mine went again, good bang this time so set myself again & nothing :roll: so stood up again & just put rod butt 2 the rocks again & bang it hit me again i started 2 think as i've thought alot of l8'ly that angle or rod does help sometimes. anyway set myself again & did'nt come back :?
3rd time it hit me & i set myself again but as i set myself it hit me again that keith seen this time, 5 goes i had at this fish but still nothing 2 show :x we have heard from alot of lads saying that the fish that have been caught l8'ly have had sprat & sandeels hanging out there mouths & the bigger baits u use the harder it is 2 set the hooks because the fish cant get ya bait in its mouth :roll:
it was a cold, cold night lastnight baits were frozen up again with in minutes, ice all over rods, hands sticking 2 rod rests, & ice balls on thumbs when reeling in :shock:
we left as the tide pushed us off the marks & headed back south 2 give lynemouth a chuck but nowt doing so headed back home, got back in at 1.45am so thats 7 1/2 hours in a freezer not good lol
