just dont know name dos,nt ring a bell.did you know panel pins comes in diff sizes ? -
I remember circa 1972/3 going fishing on a coble from Blyth, from "The Golden Fleece" pub (alighting on the ferry landing)
It was £3 a trip and my mate and I started going out on sunday afternoons, however afternoons was the casualty trips of ground baiting and line tangles. After a number of weeks in a row I was fortunate enough to be "invited" by the skipper to join their "elite" punters on a Sunday morning 6.00am till 12.00, this was a much more stable crew who took their fishing more seriously ... perfect .... must have put in a couple of years of trips until the boat was eventually retired
Remember on several occasions when it got a bit lumpy we all had to stand in the back to try and keep the prop in the water
.... those were the days .... my best in those days on that boat was 7lb cod .... memories

John I went over to Fleetwood in the seventies with Ted and Clive Marrison in Teds wifes VW Beatle ,Clive was going to see a trawler called the ERIN BAY and Ted went to see the Wandering Star ,both owned by the same man.Ted bought the Wandering Star and I had a few days out on it we even used it to haul our nets one day.white van manComment

Re the Wayside Flower ,around the same time we also went to Amble to see the Wayside Flower,she was a bit neglected and we could not get the Gardner engine to start .The boat was rigged for fly shooting with coils of ropes piled up on the deck.Couple of years later it arrived at Hartlepool owned by a lad called Franky Bergen and was rigged for trawling ,don`t know if it ever took anglers away.white van manComment

I could be wrong but think the wandering star went over to Ireland and is back at Hartlepool recently and running as a charter boat again, by John who had maggie may and esk star.
Could be the same boat ? ( 10mtr aqua star )Last edited by Codfather; 14-07-2011, 09:47 PM.Comment

It's a thin line that seperates an Angler from a madman standing on the beach in january at midnight in -5 degrees with a northerly wind blowing in your faceComment
