hi anyone that knows the law in the north east from the tyne to berwick any form of edible crab . Cart is illegal to use if you are caught regardless of what the rules say, it can’t be used as bait if you are caught using it you can be prosecuted

Cheers Steve wasn't sure on that one mate but that was my first thought aswell

A few people didn't realise the quality or amount of prizes last year, some thought it was just a sweepstake with cash prizes for the top 3.
So here's a photo of all the prizes from last years open. Expect more of the same this year.
And yes, just to clarify, "No person shall use edible crab (cancer pagurus) for fishing bait."

Hi Davy,
Liam's already "whacked" me a few times! He's had a 10lb pollack and 7 1/2lb cod from our boat a couple of years ago and he's had better bags than me and his brother Steven in quite a few club comps.
Sam.
