roker pier xmas day

[pondlife]

i managed to find some free time last night and ventured down to roker pier. all on me lonesome from 10pm till 3.30 am. landed a couple of flatties and a first for myself ever, a bass. never had a bite like that before, me rod went crackers. with about 60 mins to go till top of the tide my rod never stopped knocking with small codling bites. i pulled three in, all too small to keep but at times it seemed like the sea bed was carpeted with them. as soon as the tackle was hitting the bottom i was getting knocks.

Well done on getting out. My missus has banned me until after the new year. The Bass is cracking. I usually target these in the surf from the beaches at Hartlepool. Caught a couple of good uns last month. Lovely fish.
