  • Collecting mussel

    I live near Ashington and was wondering where I could collect some mussel for my own use rather than forking out about £1.80 for a small bag at the local tackle shops? I've heard of a local mark but not sure exactly how to access them or where to park the car. Any info would be much appreciated. Please send me a PM if you wish. Thanks

        It's getting hammered & not that many mussel left just small ones that are a bit of a pig to lash on by time u pay for diesel & your time in collecting you could easily do a deal with a tackle shop & get a deal on a few bags

            Stakeford to blyth isn't to far you by the time you fill a bucket you'll get your money back and what you don't use straight away you can freeze, I normally collect a bucket full after crabbing late in the season and freeze them for the winter

                Used to get decent mussel across the river on the North Blyth/Cambois side as well, just behind where the power station used to be.

                  I work next to the river in Blyth on the Riverside business Park, on a decent low tide always loads of people out in the mussel bed there, you can park next to the river no bother

                  Just pm me if you need more info
