Marsden rocks

[flyinfisher]

allright lads this is me first post on here so a big hello to everyone out there

anyway i fish southshields pier all the time but never anywhere else as i cant drive and dont know anywhere else to fish

my family live in durham so its easy to get to and the quickest place to get fishing

have heard some good things about marsden rocks on my many trips on the pier and was wonderin if any of you lads know where the best spots to fish are and if u fancy showin me the ropes sometime

cheers

Welcome to nesa mate Im sure theres a few on here will be able to help you out only fished the area once before but believe there was a 16lber caught there early last year so it certainly can produce good fish..
Hope your fit enough to manage the steps on the way back up

[flyinfisher]

cheers mate the steps shoudlnt be a problem specially if i have to pass the army PFT at this age lol

Loads of marks along the coast road from Shields to s/land, plenty just a 5 min walk across the Leas. Frenchies is the bay at the bottom of the cliffs directly owt to sea from the Bamburgh pub on the coast rd, souter is the red and white lighthouse past the Grotto pub. Both fish from the top (or the bottom of the cliffs if Chris Bonnington)

welcome flyfisher

Welcome

Welcome to NESA flyinfisher. Jamie has hit the nail on the head. Any mark along that stretch of coast can produce big fish! Out of frenchman's and souter, the first is the easiest to fish out of the two.
