the rocks north and south are best

[@richardsales6996]

Great fishing wow them codling are dark

[@jarrowvikingsinsaneangling9785]

thanks richard yes they go dark or even bright red which helps them camouflage themselves in the thick kelp...its a tussle of wills pulling them out at times 😄

[@christopherwilson-p9f]

Hi hope your well I’ve been with my son all day today at Eyemouth looking for this spot 😂 We fished multiple locations and only managed 3 takes but never landed them. Any tips to help us out (my son 11, patients 😂). Using same set up as you spinning 👍

[@jarrowvikingsinsaneangling9785]

aww your not at fault Christopher honestly its rubbish up there at the moment...i only caught a mackerel yesterday...should be jumping but its not..best tip find a rock with deep water and snags thats where you should find the fish..the mark you were looking for is tiny and really hard to find..you will have walked past it...good luck next time ...I'll be somewhere else in Scotland until it picks up

Great video j.v brilliant yet again..anyway going to St abbs tommorow try out the razorclaws see when you use them do you just tie your line right on them or do you use a swivel clip cheers a usually use a swivel clip with every spinner but just want a bitta info thanks

yes i use a swivel and a link just helps it spin and flash in the water without twisting your line

Hi Dave brill vid, I’m thinking of going there next month for a couple of days, I am 69, are the marks easy accessible or difficult and could you point me in the right direction when I get there and are there any reasonable b&b there. Thanks.

[@jarrowvikingsinsaneangling9785]

Hi Robert the Cutty Sark inn seems very reasonable I've not stopped over but looks good definitley check it out...unfortunately there are no easy spots to access that are worthwhile trying they are all a bit of an up and down clamber over dangerous rocks or cliffs.. Im not sure of your level of fitness at 69.....I like the rocks about a mile south of the harbour before the climb up the hill about as easy as it gets along there...if you do check it out make sure the sea is calm and no rain is forecast 😉
