big tide on thursday so you';ll want and need gripopers for flodd

so if u fishing from noon you'll be fishing flood so start oof on small wall river side of pier ) and fish tiil tide too strong, then move to seaward side (known as south east corner) depending on gear and how good grippers are, u should be able to fish to high tide, if tide turns out too strong move along pier to between 42 and 46 mark 44and 45 usually the favourite sea ward side, numbers all along pier approx 100 feet apart

others might have different ways of the pier end but thats my way and many of lads i know

most of pier is fishable on flood tide specially with plent whitis about , the only place i would suggest NOT to fish is what is known as the wheel is numbers is between 50 and aprox 42 ON river side as it is tackle hungary hope this helps mate
