Eyemouth shore marks?

[101_North]

Folks, I've the day off work tomorrow and was considering a wee trip out to Eyemouth - probably just fishing with spinning gear and rag on the float. Been told it's a good venue for Pollack and wrasse. Problem is that I've never been there never mind fished from the shore!

 

Don't suppose anyone has any tips for a decent mark?

 

I know I'm asking a lot here but I'm clueless with regards to that area

 

Any help would be fantastic!

 

Cheers as always

Below the caravan park there are some good marks. Hairy Ness is among the best. Heading south, there are any number of decent marks on the rocks below the golf course. You can't fail to find a decent spot, basically, regardless of the height of the tide.

Nice one mate. Cheers for that. Looking forward to getting out

Found the marks OK - some really cracking looking ones - and a bit of a climb down with the gear!

 

Unfortunately I didn't catch a thing

 

I'd picked up a few boxes of rag in Dunbar on my way through but I made a schoolboy error and didn't check them in the shop. I set up my 2 rods opened the rag and discovered that they were all dead and badly decomposed! Useless!

 

A bit disappointing really as it kind of ruined my plans!

 

I fished for a good few hours anyway - trying every lure etc. in my collection but I didn't even get a take!

 

It's somewhere I will definitely try again though.

 

Thanks for your help in finding the marks mate

No worries. There's nowhere really to get bait in Eyemouth, bar fresh mackerel at the fish merchants. Berwick is ten mins away in an emergency, but you should find that your lures do the job most days.
