Well I got up this morning and planned to go down to South Shields pier but had a change of mind on the way and went to hebburn marina got there for 7.15 it was a perfect morning not a breath of wind the river was like a pond so set up two rods and started getting bites on one rod straight away, after 20 minutes I had a small whitey then another 3 within an hour and a small flounder,thought it was a dab as it was so small but it was only rough down the lateral line, sure some one will advise if I'm wrong, I only had a couple of bags of rag so called it a day at 11am fish were taken on one rod using a flattie rig with green and black beads nothing on the other rod which had a single hook clip down with no beads both hitting the same distance, fish were returned ok hope to get back out at the weekend.

Sounds like a nice session mate and well done on getting a couple out. Flatty definitely looks like a Flounder to me, Dab have a pronounced D in the lateral line:

Nice day for it well done on the fishI am a fisherman !
It is not merely something that I do
It is who I am !
Fishing is not simply my escape.
It is where I am supposed to be.
It is not a place that I go
But a lifelong journey that I am taking
It is a passage that was shown to me and that I will continue to show others.
When you understand all of this you will then know me .
And we will fish togetherComment

Nice report Darnc, funny how they all took the rig with beads. Have a read of this and bookmark it for future reference mate, defo looks like a flounder to me too but can't really see the lateral line.
Its amazing how many people catch plaice in the rivers in mid winter.
