Caught 21 whiting,6 flatties and two crabs! All undersize and returned, apart from one where some chinese person wanted it for thier crab net?
Enjoyable morning with bacon, eggs and coffee cooked in motorhome before returning home knackered and stinking of fish.
Watched a seal in the water who seemed to be fattening himself up with fish that were returned!
Looking at Blyth and it's relationship to Durham, P mentioned the Blyth Staithes, which are now gone. Further browsing found this pic which took my fancy.
