THE SEA TODAY

[TC]

I know we now have the webcams covering the \"sea state\" section for the Tyne area, but I was down along the coast thismorning at 11:00 (for work) and got this photo of Target Rock........

[ollie]

looks good TC nice bit of sun creeping in to warm you up ,tony how high is target rock just for scale as ive never been there

 

[Mike.Haley]

Great photo Tony,Makes you sick though, when your stuck at work all day and cant get near the sea.

 

[Stores]

Nice day Tony. Can see St George\'s in the distance. Any chance of a photo of Friday night\'s sea.... or even Saturdays (planning a double header but don\'t tell the wife lol)

 

[TC]

Yep, I\'ll nip out Friday morning / lunch time, David.

Aye, lovelly sunny day today (TOO bright, really) and very clear - but there was still frost on the ground at 11:00am .............bit nippy ......lol

Forgot to ask when I posted the pic........

Are you all happy with just using the webcams, or would you prefer me to do the \"sea state\" photos again with details of tide times and wind direction?

Can\'t guarantee thet there\'d be any \"regularity\" about the the photos, but I guess the webcams could serve as a back-up.

EDIT:
Sorry Ollie, but I\'m not sure of the height - I\'ll see if I can find out at work tomorrow

great pic tc

 

[Davyred]

TC, it would be great if you could start it again. I go to work in darkness and get home in darkness, so the webcam is no good for me

 

[BriH]

Davy webcam2 is ok - its still showing whitly bay in TOTAL sunshine , looks like a summers Day LOL

Just keep using that one , you might look a bit daft turning up with a daiwa whisker and a few spinners in the depths of December though

when i saw that photo i got a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye
i could sit here all night and tell you so many stories and memories

good job it wasnt low water yours truly might have a clue to the whereabouts of my pots

 

[alan]

[TC]

OK.....as from today (Thursday), I\'ve started doing the photos again.

 

[john/r]

yeah stories thatll be right.tony coley you should be called.do an anagram of your name and it will show your true colours (tony codling) = lying not cod

 

[tony.codling]

well with the sea being flat i thought ill bait a pot up ( yesterday )
went down tonight and i wasnt disapointed 1 sizeable lobster
and 6 velvets ( another old sandy trick )

please be warned ive been going down there for a lot of years
and i know this stretch of rocks very well
this area is full of deep holes gullies and crevises
and best left to the master

 

[sless]

but do you know how to fish them

 

[YoursTruly]

Does\'nt need to know how to fish them!
All Tony needs is the old cling film trick!
Probably puts it on his pot bait as well.

 

[youngsless]

well he does well with the pots
and you know what the old velvets are like
strip a carcass in seconds
