Keeping my own opinions to myself, I would just like to mention that since a couple of years ago, when my son and myself had the unfortunate task of disposing of about a dozen wrasse to 3 lbs as well as a few small, just sizeable codling, Newbiggin club decided to ban them from future opens as well as in its club matches. Anglers were asked at the open's weigh in, as well as a couple of local crab potters if anyone wanted the fish, but there were no takers. We had to wait till evening to take the unwanted fish down to the church point rocks and tip them all into the ebbing tide.
