Great video gary. I’ve only ever done crabbing in the old dry docks. Never imagined there’d be cos in them. Will let my boy have a shot there or the one with the stainless steel ships in on Saturday

[@markbrodie2495]

Hey buddy your videos are great, I'm a Geordie lad who now lives in Cape Town so your uploads are always appreciated! Good to see the Tyne looking healthy. Used to fish there as a kid in the early 80's and it was a very different river! Whenever I'm back in the UK still go and wet a line down there and around Blyth, happy days! Keep them coming fella. Cheers buddy!😄

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks Mark.

Catching codling lrfing awesome stuff. Its difficult just to catch a codling down her on the south coast and never thought it would be possible to catch them lrfing. Keep up the good work.

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

[@DevonLerfer]

Cracking video mate and great fishing! Never used the savage gear worms before, they look like another interesting option. Codling are one species we don't seem to get down south, they look like they put up a decent scrap on the light gear 👍🎣

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks mate. Aye they put up a decent fight. I’m hoping they will work for the wrasse. 👍

[@vitaliylawson652]

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

That's the one a bit further along.

[@leefletcher660]

Great videos mate. Cnt wait to do abit lrf myself

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks Lee.

[@Floydsdad101]

Another great video Gary, just about to dust off my LRF gear for the summer, do you mind saying where the marks were in the video , it’ll be a long drive from Manchester for trial and error ! Ha ! Cheers !

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks supper. You park at the customs house in mill dam all the marks are a short walk from there along the river the post code for there is NE33 1ES you can park behind the customs house in the free carpark all day.

[@Floydsdad101]

thanks Gary, may well have a look there next time i am up, does it matter about the tide times ? does it need to be high tide there to try in front of those flats ?

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

No probs. No there is water in there at all states of the tide.

[@conzilmichael2703]

I’ve put loads of fish in that little dock, honestly mate someof the biggest flounders you will ever see... please too anyone who fishes this spot please please put the fish back, it’s a cracking spot for beginners and kids to have some fun.

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

yeah its a class spot. I had a peddle past last week and it looks like some kind of blue dye has been added to the water, do you think the fish will still be alive in there with that in the water?

[@conzilmichael2703]

I’ve heard that there is still fish in there and when I’ve peddled past recently I seen a few ripples in the water of the little collies

[@SnaggedBro]

Good stuff dude, New to your channel! I really need to get on this LRF. Catch you on the next one!

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks Snagged Bro.

[@russtatt]

[@garyshears6825]

Cracking video Gary, love the LRF stuff. Proper LRF as well 😉

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks Gary.

[@hesalovelybuoy5944]

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

It's worth a try, isome worms are quite good aswell.

[@Dan-pp4nh]

And isn’t there a place in Coble Landing there is a little pool you can fish in and I’m sure I seen you with a go pro fishing there yesterday

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Yeah it would have been I was there yesterday.

[@Dan-pp4nh]

Yeh we were the 2 kids where you said you hat caught 7 flatties I believe and you told us the corner was the best spot

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Were you the one that hooked me in the shoulder loI i said codling but you can catch flattys in there as well. Did you's catch anything?

[@conzilmichael2703]

Got too watch for that pipe that runs right threw the middle

[@wolfie498]

To. Through.

[@chrisadie1432]

Nice vid Gary. I'm thinking about doing some LRF but know nothing about it. What's the set up you use?

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks Chris. I was using the Rockfish L rod with an old course fishing fixed spool reel, 15lb spider wire braid, 6lb flurocarbon leader and savage gear micro rag worm kit.

[@Dan-pp4nh]

Great video isn’t this next to the port coz I was there yesterday

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks. Yeah it's just along from milldam.

[@mickydixon4083]

Canny little session Gary

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks Micky.

[@nealebradford6417]

gary can you catch bigger cod in their inwinter .do they come in that far

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

I think they get stuck in there and can only grow to a certain size. You can catch bigger cod in the main river.

[@bibcay2622]

What size weight did you use?

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

I think they were 3 or 5 gram jig heads that came in the kit.

[@Program2live]

Gary where did you go for that kit? Can't find it anywhere

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Got it off ebay Cameron.

[@Program2live]

Aye, I have just bought some off eBay :), do you reckon they will work well off shields pier?

[@Program2live]

Hi Gary, I got the same kit as you and went to that exact location. Caught nowt twice not even 1 bite. How do the fish even get in there?

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Hi cameron there is a pipe that they can get in and out of there at high tide.

[@Program2live]

Ah right, that explains it then, I think most of the round fish that would go through a pipe have gone to deeper water, so they most likely moved from there, shame I wanted to put the kit to good use

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Try milldam or the walkway at high tide there’s usually fish around there to target.

[@Program2live]

Aye, I think I will try the walkway like, suppose if there's nowt I can just go on the pier to catch a few on bait :)

[@alanrobson5270]

Can u get there on public transport?

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

yes you can get the metro or bus to south shields town centre its only a short walk from there.

[@alanrobson5270]

Thanks Gary keep the vids coming Alan.

[@kw1125]

Gary wood hi Gary ive been an avid watcher of your videos great stuff . Am from north shields would love to gan fishing with you one day .went out tonight on the tyne got two flounders

[@kw1125]

Great vids mate all the best keith

[@mike_and_jam]

Would they be fish In here now Gary ? Just think take my cousin down he is only 5.

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

I don't think there will be anything in now Michael the council have put blue dye in the water. mill dam might be worth a shot.
