Phil the last week or so on SSP there have been loads of herring being caught. Few of the SAR and Nesa members have been baggin up mate. All taking little sabiki rigs. I wouldn't recommend you parking your kayak off the round end though at this time of year

They are in across Hartlepool aswell - never seen it like this in my fishing life

It's a good sign, might we see the return of tuna in our life time?
