cod fishing

[jonesey]

last couple of winters have been really good for me, especially end of jan to mid April. Have fished mostly at night though.
Not really fished for the summer cod yet, hopefully this year.

my cod catches improved dramatically after i left jamcod at home and went on my own because he is a proven jinx

tony taylor

in june one year tony taylor had a cod of 18lb.

spring run up here is now limited to the river tyne and to a lessor the wear but that realy has always been the case.

myself i think if more people carried on fishing thro. using fresh crab and possibly frozen during april may and june i think you would here of more cod catches.

after a heavy sea there will always be fish about up here especialy in the heavier ground but i think crab is essential especialy shore crab . imho

Aye tony taylor,he was a regular along the cliffs in the summer when the sea come away,learnt canny bit from him,i remember once been there and he had two rods both going at the same time.Mind i remember out fishing him at frazers once,pleased as punch i was.

got more codling last summer from june till september than i have had this winter , bait used nothing , just macky feathers, cast out with the feathers let them hit the bottom and just pirk them off the bottom without reeling in, try it you might get a suprise, best sesh using this method of fishing 63 coalies up to 2lbs 7 mackerel and 5 codling up to 2lbs all caught on light gear, i even managed to get 1 coalie a mackerel a codling and a weaver all on the same string of feathers.

[Cod,cod,cod!]

I've got to say up until Dec (before the really cold snap) It was lifting with codling.

The club results show this when u needed 20lb plus just to frame when conditions were half decent.
