Went for a pint in Arbroath last time we were up and had a walk past the cages - cages 1 and 2 filled with middle aged "anglers" with their cans and picnics, on their phones, efing and blinding. They were the only anglers we saw all week.
My advice would be to find your way around the cliff marks, taking into account that Arbroath is a dangerous place to fish in the winter due to it's unpredictability, and do some "proper fishing". North and south of Usan are probably safer shots in bad weather.

One time I was up there the sea was banging over the pier and it moved the wall oposite 4 inches and that was a very thick wall.In order to become "old & wise", you must first be young & stupid.

you can fish the harbour wall no bother, but there's a notice right on the end which states no fishing, presumably because it is a working harbour and there are boats going in / out.
go on wsf, you'll find some cracking marks around arbroath, usan, auchmithie, inverbervie, vicky park etc
the jocks will point you in the right direction
