Some areas can be like that. Some pack there rods up from jan to march and wait for the spring species to arrive. Royboy will be best on this area winking

In my opinion you cant beat all year round flattie bashing on the humber but then again i am a flattiefanatic happy

was doing really well before christmas, plenty of whiting and few cod, just seems to have dried up now.

i dont think the two inconsiderate guys at hornsea helped though when they decided to jet ski in front of where we were fishing!!!!! angry

we decided it was a lost cause and packed up after that.

Unfortunately you get those pesky things on most beaches. Summer comes with its own challenges on some beaches with bathers and boats. They can see you fishing and will go near your lines anyway.

Joys of fishing im afraid winking
