you might like to know

[blackvelvet]

thought one or two of you might like to know that from the sluice end running along the whole of the beach to the Blyth end is going to be netted..15 fleets are going in.. I thinkhe is starting tomorrow will let you know how when he reaches Cambois..lol.lol

[bribones]

when you say netted do you mean trawlers ?or am i missing something ?

is your gif in your sig or just added as a image BV ?

[blackvelvet]

it mean he is dropping his fleet of nets close in.. no not trrawling..it means the beach will be all netted off.. The gif is just added as an image, not witht the signature

[SIXFOOTSTEVE]

OMG where did you get the info from ,this could be disasterous, It\'s our favourite beach as well ,can\'t believe it . Thanks for the info black!

[BriH]

if you KNOW for sure 100% get a fermenting barrel and fill it a 3rd full of water ,then half knock in 6 inch nails all round the drum as it \"rolls \" out to Sea it will pick up the net and totally wreck it- only to be used if you are 100% that nets are close in - a trick i once read that rival chinese trawlermen did -but they would have used something other than a fermenting barrel. cheers all

[bribones]

ok whos he ? netting the beaches off ,forgive me being a bit thick here but why, who,how far inshore etc
details for us slow folks ?

[mark]

Well that should finish the bass of once and for all

I suppose if they are still there at the weekend and anyone gets the boat out we could have a \'mishap\' and accidentley break through em

Are they gill netters heather?? if so a phone call to Allendale estates should get shut of them as they bought out all the licences from the wansbeck to the wear last year to improve the salmon runs

[willywetegg]

They do it almost every year. Can\'t say about the last couple as I havn\'t been out as much but before that yes. I am sure other shore anglers must have seen nets the whole length of the beach.

Anything to stop this stupid mass catching technique

[alan]

We\'ve got a personal catch report area to help each other,makes you wonder if its worth it,yes you\'re right Jim seen them in the past but it does make you wonder though !
thanks for the info Heather

[blackvelvet]

all legal and above board the nets, I shall ask him how far out or in he is dropping them, by the way he is a friend.lol.lol. at least he did tell us he was puting them out from the Sluice to Blyth, as he knows we fish there sometimes, the bugger.

[blackvelvet]

by the way the salmon season is closed.

[Davyred]

Doesn\'t seem much of a friend to me Blackvelvet, more a f........ tosser

[Davyred]

Does this mean we stop posting catch reports then?

doesn\'t mak any difference. They bought out all the licences to improve the river fishing in season granted but, the licences are year round, so unless they\'ve let some of the licences go again, there should be no netting at all, at any time of the year. As it happens I\'m seeing a couple of the guys from the Bywell Syndicate late this afternoon (Allendales mob), I\'ll mention it to them and see if they know anything about it.

Although the river salmon fishing season is over, the salmon are still protected for a couple of miles offshore.
