using herring in the tyne

[chris elliott]

other baits

aye my local morrisons always has something for bait! always get my mackerel from there never had any problems
they always have herring aswell so hence my post haha
i think there alot cheaper than mackerel too

wandering around the supermarket is a fascinating experience mate,our lass dragged me out a year ago to do the"weekly big shop"i was giving it the big teenager strop(bearing in mind i am 43, 17 stone and have run hairy arsed pubs in london)it may sound a bit daft but i have used the tinned pilchards(without tomato juice)and tinned tuna mixed with bran in an onion sack to create a slick while ive been spinning for pollack off the shore,dont forget mussels and prawns uncooked,get to know the guy behind the fish counter at your morrisons slip him a few quid and see what turns up
