Cheers everyone for all the advice, plenty to think about. The rocks around Souter and Whitburn sound good. I know the cliff tops really well, ive lived in shields all my life, and I've jogged and cycled along them for years but never really thought about the fishing. I might have a look down at the wherry, jimmy, wrasse and pollock sound good! will they go for spinners? A question though, what is a skeer (tried googling it but nowt)?

Dont know if the wrasse will take spinners, they do take immatative crab when float fishing but the pollock and coleys will take spinners.
A skeer is a mass of rocks or 1 really humungus rock lol, when you are on the cliff top look down to the sea and you will see it, however you wont be able to see it last hour of the flood or first hour of the ebb as it will be covered.the skeer in question is approx 80-100 feet long and approx 20 feet wide. As longvas the waves are not lashing over its a good mark.

Went down to the wherry tonight, fished for 3 hours, in the rain, from low tide up. Tried a spinner, a Toby, and feathers, got nothing, apart from from loads of tiny sand eels, every time I reeled in there was a bunch of them impaled on the hooks, must of been millions of them out there.Ron Thompson Axellerator 13’ - Penn Spinfisher 7500
