I met up with my mate Dan at midnight at the Middleton pier. The walk on was a bit dodgy as the remaining bits of snow was turning to slush. The wind had dropped down to about 20mph but still northerly and bitterly cold. The sea conditions looked good not to heavy with lazy swells.we got to the end and there was three lads already on who told us it was very slow going. They left about 1am with just a few whiting. We fished on the rod tips just showing little taps now and again.i decided to try one of my squid and cart wraps and wallop the rod tip went nuts codling it has to be.
And it was weighing in at 3lb 9oz there's
Mondays tea sorted. I kept two whiting for the dogs. Dan kept six whiting for fishcakes. No more cod and the bites died off it got to 5am and we gave up. I couldn't feel my fingers every time I baited up and Dan was doing the fisherman's dance to keep warm. The walk back to the car was treacherous the slush had turned to ice. The thermometer on the dash said -4°. Sorry for lack of pics but it was to cold for me messing about with my phone. Well I'm off to bed now to put my cold feet on custards back ?.
