This was in south shields about 30 mins from Newcastle.Tynemouth, south shields and roker piers are good for mackerel and pollock through the summer.

[@steventuck959]

I have literally just finished watching your last video you uploaded 😲

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Nice one 👍

[@floxwood3958]

how do you avoid snags in those areas whilst using metal lures with trebles?????

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

I use the countdown method when fishing the lure so I can fish near the bottom but not get snagged on the bottom. It works most of the time but there's always a risk of getting snagged fishing over heavy ground.

[@justme2386]

Where exactly is this mate? I’m from the area just don’t recognise the exact place?

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

It's just past frenchmans bay.

[@jedfra9172]

Great video. Shame you didn't have another light spinning rod with you already rigged up with a medium sized dexter/ish wedge. It is great to have the weight to cast long but with the bait fish and smaller mackerel being pushed in it was just begging for a lighter lure to work the water under that feeding frenzy.

[@davidphillips2259]

Looks like cod when cooking 👍🏻

[@mirlo5159]

Hello. Have you ever tried with a bombarda and a red gill? It is very effective.

Heyup mate, does this stretch of rocky coast between Trow Quarry car park and Marsden Bay fish best on lures at high tide? I went there just after low tide yesterday and it seemed a bit sketchy to get down close enough to the sea (I believe I went from Trow Quarry to just past Frenchmans Bay)

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Hi mate, yes I usually try to fish from about 2 hours before high water to an hour or so after high.

[@thomascook8541]

@@fishingintheukgarywood Nice one mate, makes sense. I saw some pretty nice looking big flat rock platforms, gonna try on those next time I'm there!

When is the best time to fish that location, tide coming in or going out what's best spinner to use . Cheers

Was on that spot on Saturday. Got a few mackerel and a coley. 7ft rod and 28g razorclaw with single hook instead of treble. Was hitting the mackerel on the drop near the bottom. Great fun. Think I would’ve had a heart attack if I'd hooked that pollack.

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

I usually take the lighter rod and 28g but for some reason decided to take the heavier rod and spinners, glad I did now think I would have struggled to get it in with the lighter rod but it would have been an excellent fight.
