Blyth Pier

[adimorris]

I was wanting to have a go fishing at Blyth - Can I fish the pier with the wind turbines on, or is fishing not allowed from here ? If not, I guess the pier south of the river is the place to go ?

The fishing marks only shows the southern pier - is parking safe around here ?

Thanks.

Hallo mate - welcome to NESA (10% discount in some Tackle Shops )

I don't think you can get on the pier with the turbines (could be wrong) so the south pier is your best bet...

Macky bashers love it - and it will always be full when the weather is good. But it also a good spot for bait fishing too or even float fishing.

Parking is OK - there's a small carpark just as you drive into the Port of Blyth entrance (you're not able to go any further into the harbour unless you're a permit holder)

Thanks for that. I'll try the south pier then - hopefully the weather won't be as bad as they're getting it down South !!

I'm going across tonight at about 2000ish - it's a bit blowy out but it's better than sitting watching the missus watch Big Brother!!

The weather is glorious Sunday though supposedly

Enjoy mate

there must be a way on to the north pier as i seen people fishing off there a couple of weeks back but parking on that side is a bit iffy lol so south one is better just dont go late at night on a weekend as all the little f*cking smackheads are out and about

Funny you should say that but on the South Pier tonight there were some young(ish) Charvas on apparently drinking cans and smoking spliffs....Met Gregg while there...not one of us caught like and I don't think anyone caught while we were there (which was a good couple of hours)

Good meeting you Gregg

Good meeting you too Tony. I saw 1 caught on the float next to where you were fishing. Bloke had only been there a few mins!!!

There is a way on, but its dangerous, and you arent supposed to go on. Personally, I wouldnt take the risk, for fish or otherwise. If you do see any smackheads, be sure to treat them with the respect they deserve, run over them several times.

Spinning mate - I think next time I'm gonna take my bait rod tho...chuck a bait in the middle while I use the float on the lighter rod.

The same can be said for dusk and a high tide - expecially if it's warm calm night
