Where to fish around Blyth ?

[fozally]

I will be fishing the Blyth area on the 3rd Dec. It will be a big nightime low water tide and would welcome any suggestions where to fish as per sea conditions etc... I dont know the area well but do know the pier and the long beach where the bogs are at the South end. I will be aiming for cod but info on whiting will also do nicely.

Hi fozally welcome to NESA mate. If you are fishing during the day try the pier, especially if there is a big sea. If you are talking about the night tide and the sea is ok try around the ranch or Meggie\'s burn. The middle toilets should also fish ok with some sea on.

If you are not sure about where these marks are, go down the left hand side of the page and click on original site and then again on maps and look at Blyth.

Only problem with Meggies and that area is where to leave the car without a long walk.

I meant to say, don\'t know if you are local or not, but if you are get down at low water and have a walk around and see where the holes are.

Sometimes you only need to cast about 30 yards or so.

Thanks for that. Not local so I will check out the map.

Your welcome mate. I am not really local but if I am down that way before then which I probably will be lol I will either post on here or send you a PM as to where the holes are.

Hi fozally the whitley bay night comp is on that evening 8pm-12.30am i believe\' probably my favourite open so i will be in the area if your around. Blyth pier if there is no type of northerly sea on then its not worth the walk\' the beach can be deadly on a dying sea over high water a 50 yard lob puys you in a gutter that runs for a long stretch of the beach around the middle toilets if the sea is up the beach becomes heavy very quickly and is unfishable..

Hi welcome to NESA,post again a day or so before you are due to fish it someone will tell you what the conditions are like or if theres any holes or gulleys developing,in fact send me a message and I\'ll have a look for you,Blyth pier will fish as long as the wind is\'nt coming from the West in any shape or form,cant guarantee the fish though like most places

[fozally]

Thanks for the tips/advice. Where do you fish when you get a westerly ?

[willywetegg]

Waste of time mostly. Just usually try the rock edges. Plenty of them in that area mate. Have a drive round at low water, it would take for ever to fish them all lol.
