Anyone fished around here recently? Going to give it a try in morning but probably to much fresh water in it now with snow melt and so on. Let you know if my rods pulled around when i get back

Could be because people aren't catching on them too. I noticed, the couple of sessions i had in Brid that the fish were very tuned in to mackerel for some reason. Not sure why. But i struggled to get bites on other baits on some occasions, however at the moment i wouldn't bother targetting the Humber for the exact reason you've mentioned. Will probably be more coarse fish as far down as the Humber bridge than sea fish .... (They have been caught that far down joking aside) Hope you did get a few anyway mate, would at least think there'd be the odd whiting and flatty knocking about. Dan

Dan you say theres fresh water fish as far down as the humber bridge. Have you witnessed them your self because i find it hard to believe. Not saying i dont believe you just wondered if you new this for certain.

I thought the same actually and would like to know what species of freshwater fish they are

Those that can tolerate brackish water conditions i.e. Bream, Roach. They are nigh on impossible to target, due to the very strong currents and casts required. I said it in response to your mentioning of the freshwater that will be pumping through the Humber at the minute ... It jogged my memory of a conversation i had with a certain person who will remain unamed as i value my testicles (But he is respected) whose friend had been targetting them. Think about the baltic Full of Pike, Perch, Roach, Bream... most coarse fish, and it's brackish, 50/50 salt and freshwater. Just like the Humber is for some of it's length. Obviously the further down the Humber you go, the more saline it becomes, but with the right tides and influx of freshwater from the Trent and Ouse, they can get that far down. But their prescense will be effected by tides and salinity fluctuation in the water. Alas though, to prevent interrogation, i have no proof so there's no need to pick me apart on this one ;D ;D Dan

You never know ;D ..... I think most of our Freshwater fishes osmoregulatory systems can withstand certain amounts of salinity ...

I was watching a couple of lads in the Humber pulling flatties out left right and centre on what looked like fresh water rods.Bite indication was fantastic.Ive got to give that ago.They had 7 out in about half an hour whilst i was there.

i often fish off the wall at sanluca, dunston shipyard as its a 2min walk from my home with heavy legering tactics, i use my feeder rod with 8lb main line with a 2.5oz grippa lead with a size 2 hook with a bunch of worms, always catch some flatties and eels. good way to use up those excess worms when i have them.

There have been odd freshwater fish caught in the humber near the bridge, but very few and far between. They are washouts from lakes and rivers when there is heavy rain. They don't last long due to the heavy currents of 5knots + though. There are odd whiting comming out at the moment as well as the usual flatties but no cod yet.
