I would like to thank the club that did the work in organizing this competition,also the companies that donated excellent prizes to the table.
Also the donations to the Blyth inshore rescue was magnificent sum to help with there upkeep.
I fished this competition today,very poor from a cod anglers view point,but I thought it was a very well attended match by a lot of anglers wanting to show there support to Barry Tweedle memorial.
A big well done to people that put in the hard work to make this happen,and I hope this can be a annual event..........WELL DONE...H

Unfortunately, quite a few didn't bother to try and bring their flatties back alive to the scales, even though flatties have been worth a fair bit over the years to those involved. It's disappointing because the sea is only about 100 yards away from where they're weighed. I suppose it's all about being bothered and thinking of your sports future. A bucket of water or one of those excellent waterproof fish bags is all it would take.

I would of gone the other way Sam, while scrounghing my fish at the end there was only about twenty flats left, I took four away with a couple of codling when i got home one flapped out the bag. When i was round the back there was a steady stream of anglers going up and down the stairs to Newbiggin Bay putting there flounders back. Of course some may of taken their dead ones away. Best way to keep flounder alive is in a little bit of water in a flat tray, you can keep them in a bucket of water but the water must be constantly changed otherwise they drowm through lack of oxygen. Keeping them in no water is better than too much, and don't pile them on top of each other.

[super-MAGuire]

damp cloth between them in a polybag left loose and kept cool is a win, dabs and flounders are tough little buggers, plaice not so i have came to realise.
