The pier is damaged and very dangerous, but as ive said before just be very careful and i never go on when theres a big swell and i know never to go on when its high tide as i go well before high tide & come off at low tide.. i cant say nothing more about this topic now but apart from im never reportin this mark again thanks lads for the imput

[Lowrider]

I have on other forums simply heard this mark reffered to as mark X.
Simply so inexprienced people would not know where it is and not attempt to fish it .
Might be an idea in the future as there are new people joining here all the time.

dodgy venue

Got to admit I'm torn about this...on the one hand the lad's out fishing and catching fish (which is more than me) but the choice of venue is a dodgy one in my opinion and by posting catch reports and then bigging it up only encourages people to endanger themselves

Soz for being a boring fart but there you go

yes cambois pier is in a state of dis-repair, and you are not allowed on there, (even more so since a few rogue fireworks set fire to part of it, boards burnt right through all over, big holes everywhere, loose planks, and most of the railings are rotten or missing) everyone knows mark's which are dangerous / illegal or both. personal choice, as long it doesn't endanger anyone elses life etc. there was a save the pier campaign best part of 25 years ago, don't know what ever happenned to the proceeds mind. if memory serves a lad fell through the pier few years back and smashed his leg badly, ambulance etc, apparantley tried to sue the port of blyth afterwards. so probably best / safer if everyone just stays away from cambois pier altogether. blyth pier is a good option and much less crowded...... and you stand a good chance of bumping into fellow nesa "MEMBERS" and having a good bit craic whilst untangling lines and moving your gear so the lads with bikes and trolleys can get past.

out of interest wallsendo, when was the last time you fished cambois pier mate?

never have - never will...for all the reasons you have stated.

I take it you are questioning why I felt qualified to comment...simply because I have heard it's an unsafe venue from a fair number of reliable sources.

so you think i was implying that you were not qualified to comment on a subject simply because you have no first hand knowledge of it, never walked along it, and have never fished it? how odd.

i'm sure your "advice" (based soley on other peoples opinions) on a dodgy venue, (which you have never fished) will be of great relevance to everyone and may even encourage someone else not to venture along the dangerous pier (as you have never done) and for that i applaude you.

thanks again for all the advice, comments etc, i especially liked the one asking how to change the battery on a tip light a few months ago, quality.
