Great turnout tonight, thank's to everyone that turned up. I think there are just as many turn up for the crack as for the fishing lol. Conditions were not exactly perfect with a very flat sea.

36 fished and 9 weighed in although I did recieve a couple of texts from lads that had caught a couple of fish but didn't go to the weigh in, cheer's for that lads always apreciated. A couple of others with just the odd fish did not weigh in either.

Heaviest fish Rod Storey 2 lb 4 oz. Codling. Winning £100:00

Heaviest bag Wallsend Paul 5 lb 9 oz. 1 codling 5 Whiting. Winning £80:00

Third Keith Brown 4lb 1 oz 5 Whiting 1 Dab winning a rod stand very kindly donated by Brian of Frazers Angling in Gateshead and Whitley Bay.

Fourth Kingfisher 3 lb 7 oz 3 Whiting 1 Flounder no Rockling winning a fishing bag very kindly donated by Ian at Game Fishing Supplies of Morpeth.

£360:00 was taken in all with £180:00 paid out for heaviest fish and heaviest bag leaving £180:00 for the RNLI fund.

To add to that there was a wee comp and raffle a few weeks ago organised through Angling North East, by Tompa who kindly handed the money over to me to add to our money from tonight.

I would like to say a big thank you to the Angling North East lads for their kindness and hard work and for the money lol.

Thay raised a total of £165:00 which when added to our £180:00 from tonight makes a very tidy sum of £345:00.

Very well done to all involved you should all be very proud.

Jim.

but im hoping to get to the n v s comp to meet up with everyone from the site

Congrats to Rod and Paul.........and well done all (lol...that rhymes) :D

Excellent turn out on a less than perfect night (conditions wise) resulting in another fantastic amount being raised for the RNLI - and the boost of the donation from ANE is outstanding (well done Tompa and everyone on ANE).
 
Well done Rod and Paul and all the lads that fished. Gutted that missed it a hours job turned into a 4hour job so didn't get in til 19.00. Looking forward for Feb's match. Well done to nesa for raising money for a good cause.
 
Well done everyone, especially Jim & Tompa for organising the comps, that's another tidy sum for the RNLI pot :cool:

It was nice to see everyone again & meet a few new faces, sorry for nearly blinding you with my headlight on the beach Alan.

Thanks to Neil for letting me tag along and keeping an eye on me, I was quite happily standing on the sand bank not realising how deep the water behind was getting.

"Fourth Kingfisher 3 lb 7 oz 3 Whiting 1 Flounder no Rockling winning a fishing bag very kindly donated by Ian at Game Fishing Supplies of Morpeth" :D lol

"just glad Jim and Keith didn't stitch me up with a stewards jacket lol" :D:D:D Always next time mate!!!

Keith mate you wouldn't be the first to have problems on the sand bars on Blyth beach mate. I have known people to have had to get a piggy back off there lmao.

Jim.
 
Not sure of them all but Keith Brown got his from Blyth beach and Neil Peacock (Kingfisher) was on Blyth beach also. Not sure if Rod said Stoney Bottom but I am sure him and Paul will be looking in today to let you know.

Jim.
 
Was a good night even though conditions werent the best. Seems I am not alone in needing longer legs for wading back to dry land :D

Nothing ever get's forgotten on this forum does it :D except the odd roll of bait elastic :D

Rather than killing them for nothing I've just filleted, skinned & boned the 5 chickens I took home, I'm left some strips about an inch wide and quarter of an inch thick, by the time I beef them up with some salt (no pepper :D ) there might be enough to make a sarny.

Wish I'd scrounged the one Neil caught, biggest chicken I've seen, must of been nearly 2lb :cool:
 
Yes Jim a decent headlamp is on our wanted list - havent you lot realised that we only fish with folk who are kitted out like lighthouses :D
