for those who think it may be a rumour beleive me it aint.the lad was assaulted by three blody idiots who give us lads a very bad name.spoke to another two salmon lads today the ones in the little black boat for those who fish there.they said the abuse they get by most on the pier is very annoying to say the least.first and formost is they catch salmon and sea-trout and not makerel granted the odd one get fast in the net but thats it.they have had several meetings regarding the abuse regarding anglers on the pier and now the step was over reached with the assault,yes its inn the hands of the police for those who may be thinking.and this sort of thing should not happen either shouting abuse or assault.one thing for sure is the pier could be closed for those anglers doing exactly what i have posted,i also spoke to different lads coming off the pier to see if the fishing was any good and guess what the answer was no the lads with the nets are catching the lot,well i told them to speak to the lads on the boats who would advise them otherwise but i think its stuck in there thick heads,must be the conversation on the pier.
