Nice pictures coddy,if the forecast's reet it should bring some fish in. :)
 
Just been down for a couple of hours, plenty of people down, only had macky as bait so wasn't much chance but there is a nice sea running, got a bit of a soaking from a rogue wave.
 
maps for fishing marks

maps for fishing marks

hi hope u can help does anyone no how to get the maps of the marks seen it on nesa the other day on some ones name cant remeber it was 150 marks please help thanks
 
parking will be at the small car park only very soon(north end access from road between gas works and factory unit) , they are putting a barrier up to stop car access to the prom itself before the winter season
i normally fish the 2nd,3rd or 9th bay between the groins but its been very unproductive over the last year
btw those nice new handrails are plastic so dont expect them to last very long come the winter storms also they are a pain to cast or wind back over as they are too high ( hight and gaps contravene accepted handrail sizes [my old job was doing them and i know i would get shot for making gaps that big between rails or a rail that high])
there is a small car park on top of cliff in the plans by the middle access road (now defunct) so first 4 bays will be fished the most this year i think where you can at least see your car
the council is breaking its own planning laws on the work being done as it has revived the plans but not got planning permission to do this , they have left out the full car park that should be at the bandstand (middle access road) so maybe more to come on this
also they opened walking access gaps in groins so not much sand on the beach this year and i think a whole lot less by storm season
i was down on monday and the bay by the rain outfall pipe which used to have just sand is now exposed rock
this is from last winter but its almost like this now

these used to be clean sandy bays with little or no rocks showing in the sand

btw i cant believe some one took a pic and my van is not in it , it almost lives on this prom , i think if i am there any more i will be getting a council tax bill for the place
