Hi try Beadnell point its 5 miles south of Bamburgh thats is fishing well at the moment.For charter Boats you are far better driving 30miles south to Amble, it does not take long as the roads are good.
I would strongly recommend you use the boat The Upholder,Dave the skipper is a hoot and what he does not know about fishing isnt worth knowing.
His rates are very reasonable, his mobile is 0797 1108737, tell him Kevin from The Togi Duck recommended you, he will look after you.Amble also has a good angling shop, called the Amble angling centre, as anyone once you get into the town for directions, its well stocked with fresh bait.
The owner is Called Norma if you are going out on a boat she will open the shop up early to allow collection of bait and stock up with tackle, this would save you 2 trips.Seahouse or Alnwick have no shops selling fresh bait.
Good luck.
