S/S Pier (concerned)

[thommaz]

After winning my match on friday (granty's) a thought i would go out yesterday after that big sea we had and fish south shields pier, a few of the local lads were down and i think one of them only had 1 fish about 1lb 1/4(i think) i blanked on my session but that is part of fishing, nobody else had anything really BUT there was a man who caught a pouting which was just undersize, when he caught the fish he took his rig off and put a new rig on (baited up) and casted out, he had two rods , whilst knowing that he still had a fish on his rig (because he would of had to re-bait his rig)he left it for about 10 mins then un hooked the fish packed his gear away and left leaving the fish dead on the deck, i think this in my opinion is a disgrace, i feel as tho one of us local lads should of said something to the lad who was from sunderland(tell by the broad accent), if you are going to keep a fish it should be atleast sizeable and shouldnt be wasted (even if size), the fish which didnt get wasted because one of the local angler asked a couple of youngins who were fishing if their wanted to take it home to eat it which i thort in my opinion was a really good idea (total respect to mr patterson) another thing which p****d a few of us off was when this bloke was casting he never said heads o give us any type of warning that he was casting out, it doesnt take much to say heads in my opinion

Overall a dont no if its just me being grumpy here or if am in the right, ano a wasnt the only one on shields pier that day who thought the same

It would of only taken two seconds to take the fish off the hook no need for it.

You were right it is a total disgrace. I've had to curb my lip a lot of times with the job I'm in but I'll say stuff when needed but hope that most of the anglers on our shores are d1ckeds like this one, although unfortunately there's still a few about

im a bit bored of these types of thread. We all know its going on. Say something to the person as it will have more impact than posting it on the forum.

Ive ran into loads of people over the years who do things i dont like, ill say something to them and they generally dont say much back...
