When you said the cod were extinct I thought you lived near Stavey - darn south somewhere. The North East is full of fish.

Hi Chris,

 

Watched 1 lad pull 4 in next to me then I moved and had chance of 3 but they just wouldn't take the damn bait - do you think the bites are a bit funney this year ?.

have to agree on the funney bite thing some baits they pull the rod out of your hand then the neat cast with another bait they just nibble at it .

i had the upper hand on sunday , just as i only managed one , he only had a rockling but lost a bit better fish , couldent manage to keep it going through the kelp i think it was proberbly one of those awkward 3lbers big enough to get you fast but not quite big enough to pul it out , i broke it out 3 times ond on the 4th it bust the snood hard luck but thats fishing , gave him a good walk though down the iron springs and round into the mid way , he sure slept well last night

Sure is hard work down there. Not so bad at low water but high is a nightmare. Those rocks are the size of houses, and if that's and exaggeration its only a slight one - maybe bunglelow size . I've only ever caught 1 fish there but I once stood and watched someone catch a great big bag full from there when I was fishing the snot hole.
