Much the same as last week, except Bert, Skull and myself were joined by Uncle Benny ( Jim - Topfly).

We fished more or less the same wrecks as last week with similar results, this time Bert was top man landing five cod and 2 pollack, mostly caught on pirks. I got my one and only cod early on so Skull & Jim got a bit of stick, but they redeemed themselves at the last 2 drops of the day, Jim taking the biggest of the day.

Total catch 8 cod, 2 pollack and a few pouting.

A few pics:



First of the day.



and another for Bert.

Nice one for Uncle Benny.

Sorry no pics of Skull with his catch, camera is too valuable

Cheers chaps!

Nice1 and that sea looks so flat, the only plus side of the fog is a flat sea. Great to see them cod on lures already and sounds like you picked the better type of fishing, lads i was speaking with said nets all over close in both north and south of the Tyne....see you out there when this bloody arm is better mate.

Not a bad couple of hours work there Keith B at least it was fruitfull with what fish you got as for myself i hav/nt started yet as i have to catch my first fish yetso well done to you and the boys there and good luck to you all

[KeithB]

Yeah, they are Size 3 (large) so a little tight

Bagged them on fleabay for £20, if the seller had titled the auction "Guy Cotten" instead of "Guy Cotton" they may of had more interest
