Fishing Spots For Mackeral?

They come up from the south, they should be arriving at roker soon, then they seem to dwell there for a while before moving straight up to Blyth and again they linger around there for sometime before eventually hitting eyemouth etc.

Whilst piers have been mentioned, particularly Roker and Blyth has anyone caught a Maki from any of the beaches in the region?. Anyone tried?

I've had macky off of the beach at seaburn mate, that's when I was really into it like. I've heard that blyth beach is good but it's got to be a big tide

last year me and me pals, lucky chris, chris 62, big mick, and me son ryan were walking of blyth pier, getting dark. one of the lads said hang on, we`ll try here, looking from the beginning of the pier we were casting our spinners in2 the breakers, let it settle, a quick jurk, and bang, every time they were on.
think about it, where are the sand eels. ?

Last August/September quite a few were getting caught in club matches on Blyth Beach by lads fishing for flounders around the middle toilets, on worm & crab baits fished only 20-30 yards out

I think at the back end of this summer I'll have a couple of wading sessions with my fly-rod, really want to get one (or more!) on the fly.
