Had a chuck on the walkway 10.00 - 3.00pm...........very poor indeed.I had 2 knocks early on but yeah....blankety Blank :mad:
I know 4 people fished ...but I didnt see anyone catch.
 
Hard lines metalpunk. I know it can hoy canny fish up but personally I just hate the F*****n place. Why? 1. Hard fishing with fast flows and can only fish it without heavy tackle loss at certain times, 2. To many people packed into a small mark leading to inevitable cross lines etc, 3. When I go fishing I like to see a bit of sand, cliffs and so on, there all you see is North Shields fish quay, and lastly I get the feeling of anglers being unwanted in that place.
Just my opinion like.
 
Hard lines mate. Couldn't agree more with g.gordon, the walkway looks very user friendly but I've lost loads of gear there. Even with a long cast you can still get dragged and snagged.
 
Aye, there was very little there. Ended up with a handful of undersize.

Shaun were u the lad that was fishing on the right of me today (on your left). I came down about 3ish, you were practising casting before you left?

that would off been adam(adam123) me and curtis(curtis.dunn) moved along to the beach next to the lifeboat station hoping for afew flatties but nothing.
 
You need a decent cast to avoid the snags at the fish quay. TBH I thought they had dredged it and cleaned the bottom closer in. Obviously not!

walkway in my opion is 1 ov the cleanest places on the tyne never lost 1 rig at all this obviously is my opion . as for the fish quay its 1 ov the worst iv littraly lost a rig a cast its f*king the worst but id say that the bigger fish are caught on the nort side ov the tyne . blanket the last two times ive been there . and ppl musnt like us fishing the walk way with people scratcing cars. and i agree with wat sum 1 else said its much nicer to see clifs and beaches wen ishing:)
