[Finny]

Not a lot happening at the moment a few pin whitting, turbot and small bass been caught.

[gordo]

cheers pal still going on thursday , might try Hornsea
never know your luck when sea fishing (come to that any fishing)

[Finny]

Don't forget to a report when you get back ;D

[gordo]

no probs mate
should fish ok ,its a good size tide, just a shame high tide wasnt a bit later(into darkness)

[tommy1]

fished mappleton last night, fished the tide all the way up, and two down, the only fish we had was one rockling, there was a hell of a lot of weed about that made the fishing awkward, oh, and by the way theres still a few crabs about.

[james22]

anyone know of anything happening at brid as after speaking to my mate its either a trip carp fishing or a trip to brid on the 16th.

[Finny]

I know some one who fished there last weekend, all they got was 5 whiting. Only one was big enough for the pot.

[james22]

humm not good then dont want a 1 1/2 drive not to get much

(Thanks tommy1 for the pm)

[james22]

After many discussions me and my mate decided to give brid a go this sat. Well more sunday as doing the early morning sunday tide!!!!
We know it not been fishing the best but does anyone have any tips on best rigs baits etc to give us the best chance possible and which wall is fishing best?

Any help appreciated

James

I'm gonna be trying the east coast too this weekend, maybe brid, maybe mappleton.

So i'm looking on tips for rigs too!

[Finny]

There was some bass caught at Brid last weekend, I would use 2 or 3 hook flappers. ;D

[james22]

Yeah was thinking of using 2 hook flappers but might make a few 3 hook up tommorrow night should increase my chances.

Is it worth taking lug worm or just squid and makeral (not sure how to spell it having a dumb day!)

Herb if you at brid look out for us we both got dark hair and will be fishing two rods each
we both mid early twentys.

[herb]

Looking at the tides, brid might be prefereable.

get there midday saturday, buy some worms, fish over high tide and down a bit, get something to eat from a Cafe over low tide, then fish all night

[Finny]

I think the bass was caught on fresh lug and it was caught at night. ;D

[james22]

best buy some lug then just incase do you know off which wall they was caught off

[Finny]

I think it was the one with the crane on, I have been told near the café there is a sand bank that holds the bass but don't know how true it is. When I fish there I usually fish near the crane.

[tommy1]

finny's right james, good spot near the crane, may be there myself. ;D

[herb]

ah well, somethings come up for this weekend, might have to try get over next weekend instead

[james22]

Well been and updated my sea tackle box as been a while since i been, just made a couple of rigs ready. so only to get through work tommorrow morning then can set off.
Just need to sort out all my clothes and food.

[james22]

Well just got up after getting home at 7am from brid.
Sure was a cold night!! just about de-frosted.
I had 8 fish all night 3 flatties 1 rockling and 4 whiting only 3 of the whiting was worth the pot.
Not the best night but still enjoyed it.

and thats from the codfatherlol

[Finny]

Got this of another site.

Lots of cod being caught still from the Holderness beaches, matches today won with bags of 40lb+ and specimens over 6lb.

[james22]

Didnt see any been caught yeah there was a fair few there. They all went before us so didnt get to ask anyone sorry.

[humhx]

Reports in the local paper of plenty of codling coming out all down the coast and as far up river as Paull

[Finny]

Fished at Paull car park a few times, just caught eels ;D

[herb]

I've done the same Finny, don't think I have ever caught anything but eels & flatties from anywhere on the Humber (maybe I'm just !).

Good job I like catching eels though, I've had some good ones out of the humber too!

Must admit I used to enjoy fishing in Paull car park, sat in the car with the heater on watching the rod tip through the windscreen

Much more enjoyable than some of the freezing Wintery nights I've spent on various other East coast beaches.....

Is there a Macro store by the river, I think it on the road out of Hull. I've beed told of some big cod caught there. ;D
