    We had a short run out with the lads on Thursday evening.
    The tail end of the persistent South Easterly made it hard going but we still found a Pollock, and some cracking Mackerel and Coalies for bait and for the pan (with a nice sunset to top it off).

    It was a tale of two halves tonight; we were met with a choppy South Easterly as we exited the Tyne piers, and an absolutey flat calm stunning sunset welcomed us back home later that evening.
    Craig, Ron, Mark, Stu and the lads took the rough with the smooth and soldiered on until both the tide and conditions eased off, and found some great Ling, Codling, Haddock, Pouting and Mackerel for their efforts! Henry snatched the sweep from Craig on the second last wreck of the night, with a lovely clean 8lb Codling.

    It was a bit of a windy and choppy start today, but it settled down nicely as the morning progressed and turned into a warm and sunny run out.
    We found some lovely Codling, way too many Ling to count, a great stamp of Pollock and a good number of Haddock, Coalies, Whiting, some jumbo Pouting and of course Mackerel (although they were everywhere, they seemed to be a little more patchy than recent days).

    We had flat seas today with some intermittent sunshine, rain showers and wind thrown in.
    Some nice codling, smaller ling, haddock, coalies, whiting, pouting, gurnards and of course non stop mackerel.

    We had a fantastic father and son run out this afternoon, all thanks to Charles for organising the trip.
    Lots of mackerel, sunshine and rainbows in no particular order! Possibly the most rewarding short trip so far this season. :-)

    Thanks to Collin for organising a short run out for a few hours in the sun this morning!
    We didn't stray too far from the piers and found any amount of smaller Ling, some decent Codling, Mackerel, Wrasse, Pouting, Whiting, and small Coalies etc. We were even escorted by Dolphins first thing this morning which is always great to see.
    Everyone will definitely be eating well tonight; the lads guessed we probably had well over 100 throw backs, and our fair share of sunburn!

    It was another cracking run out today, but the offshore wind scuppered the plans for the majority of it.
    We stuck inside on the inner grounds and steadily picked away on smaller Codling, Ling, Coalies, Whiting, Pouting, Mackerel and even a Haddock.
    When the wind subsided we made the most of the last 20 minutes, and David found a solid stamp Codling on the last drop of the day.
    Massive thanks to John, Andreas and the lads for travelling up from Lancaster, Liverpool and Birmingham for a run out!

    Massive thanks to Will for organising a run out celebrating his birthday today.
    We had interchangeable weather all day, but for the most part it was sunny with flat seas.
    We stopped for some Mackerel in the morning for both bait and the pan, and then targeted Codling for the rest of the day.

    Huge thanks to the guys who arrived in a party from Northampton today. We set out to very choppy, chilly, windy and wet conditions.
    Thankfully it settled down and we stopped to let the lads fill their buckets with mackerel in the morning, whilst also picking up Coalies, Whiting, small Pollack and Pouting.
    Once they'd had their fill with mackerel, we targeted Codling and a seemingly never-ending stream of lovely clean fish came aboard until the very last drop of the day. Peter won the sweep with a fantastic 16lb12oz Ling.
