Rugby season not over yet, still coaching every weekend up into May
Then I can start the serious fishing

going to have a crack for bass on the fly
Have caught back down home, but never tried up here

I was out today down Blyth pier, hoping that it wouldn't have been too affected by the freshwater from the recent rain and be able to start of my lure species list. Water was still very coloured and the dredger was working the area so it was very hard going. I had one bite on a lure that didn't connect and one small coley on a bit of black lug. Others were doing equally as bad

Well lads, because you all seem so shy, here's one to get the ball rolling. Rainbow trout caught on a cats whisker lure.

i was too busy chasing big pollock last season to concentrate on other fish, this season is all about species including that illusive wrasse. And maybe some more big pollock.

I had a quick look out after work yesterday but didn't manage to catch anything on a lure just small pollack on squid.

unlucky mate, won't be long now

I think my tiny pollack may turn out to be a coalie lol.
A little flounder came up to the surface but I couldn't get a rig in front of it quick enough before it went back down again, first time I've seen a flattie do that.

You not claiming the coley mate? Thought it was a tiny sabiki lure it its mouth lol...
