fatfield is it any good

[graham2000]

hi guys i used to do alot of seafishing with my dad and brothers for 5 years, the fish started to die with trawlers etc, any way i ve took up coarse fishing which is ten times better. i ve been to some lakes like the 1 at hebburn behind the cock crow inn which i find is good, i been to marden quarry which i did not like, i went to killingworth and another 1 near to which was ok, has any 1 here been to fatfield up washington as i live in birtley?

thanks graham

i used to fish the Wear down from the highway bridge at fatfield with the feeder,plenty of dace,chub,trout,eels with the odd flounder,and very occassional small barbel and grayling.....was never stopped from fishing there,as its tidal can be a challenge on a big tide...

am after free lakes or rivers with plenty of fish or action if you no what i mean am not bothered what i catch as long as it s a nice size fish

hi m8 there are some descent carp in there over 20 lb,last years season ticket was only about 16 quid for the year, not sure on day tickets,but i would say silksworth at sunderland fishes better,last year 3.50 day ticket or 20quid for the year,just go and fish and some one will come round for your money and if not you get a free day...
