Canny swell last night. Headed off to Seaburn beach but without my bait bucket. Went back home (luckily I live in Seaburn) and decided the hand of fate was telling me to go down to the ratty. Actually saw a massive rat, gorging on angler leftovers.
Fished the north pier end - 6 codling, missed about 10 other bites, fish gagging for mussel.
Fish - 2.5lb, 2lb, 2lb, 1.5lb, 1.5lb, 1.5lb. Thought the bigger codling was a monster - din't realise that I was also dragging in some gear as well off the grip lead. This then got stuck - comedy moment of a codling suspended in the air, just above the sea...
Can see out of my study window that the sea has flattenned off a bit now. Probably still worth a shot this evening though.
*CORRECTION - NICE ROLL ON NOW*
