The Basin is O K. but a much better spot is just upriver on the opposite side.
It's from the car-park beside the Schooner pub just behind Gateshead Stadium.
You can clearly see St Peter's from the mark and 'Spillers' and the 'Anglo Swedish' jetty.
It's a good bottom and you can virtually fish from your car and, as there's no 'Residents', there's nee hassle!
Tight lines,
Drof
think i fished that bit before drof,if its just past the pub down a little hill then into a car park
aye lads, nice little car park that, if the fishings a bit slow you can give your lass one without any hassle, or eat a nice mc donalds. lovely jubbly!!.
