Pier Fishing - South Shields Pier. 

Thanks mate.

Thanks ascot.

Hopefully I'll get some time to do that soon.

Fishing in the UK 👍

Thanks Emma 👍

Try using size 1 hooks sounds like there are small fish pecking at your bait. You'll have more chance of hooking them with slightly smaller hooks.

@@fishingintheukgarywood to compensate for their small mouths, I use a custom-made snagging rig to snatch them up as they peck at a piece of bread dough on the centre just above the hooks. I foul-hooked LOADS of ornate wrasse in the Canary Islands this way. Otherwise, I am targeting fish large enough for legal consumption (flatfish, cod types, small sharks etc.). Would you recommend that I step my hook sizes down for them too? Thank you for reading my comment and giving me advice.

I'm not sure if it will be open or closed it just depends on the weather and the sea.

Excellent. Good to know they are back. I still need to get back out to catch some for the freezer.

Fishing in the UK yeah, I think I’m going again tomorrow so I’ll let you know if I get anymore

Thanks Robbie.

Its a pro am rod from reelsport.

Thanks Mike 👍

Thanks john. This was just before the mackerel came in it usually gets quiet on the pier after last light.

I'm using the pro am it's made by local tackle shop reelsport and the reel is an old saltist 30h

Its a bit slippery but not to bad.

Thanks Chris. Tight lines mate.

Hi mate, yes they are fully in now as long as the weather stays good there will be plenty about theres also alot of herring getting caught from the end if the pier.

Fishing in the UK You are the best thank you so much

Aye it was that night mate.

Just peeler crab legs mate.

Thanks anton. yeah mate. tight lines 👍

Thanks mate. Theres usually plenty of spaces for parking there.

Free parking behind the bait shop about quarter of a mile from the end of the pier. Pier itself has lots of paid for parking. Which isnt that expensive

No probs, im not sure but I could do with catching some of them.

Thanks mate. Tight lines.

I don't have a fishing drone otherwise i would try it.

Please purchase one. This is something I’d like to see in the north east and see what results are. It would be amazing content

What’s drone fishing?

Thanks Andrew.

You back out the night mate

No mate, going to wait for the wind to drop before I go out next.

Same here to i have seen on one off your video wen u use bait holder are them good

Yeah they are canny they are good for bigger baits.

Yes mate. There's a couple of videos on my channel of spinning from here they should be in the pier fishing play list

Thanks mate.

Thanks Joe. It can be a bit snaggy here close in and you have to watch out for the lobster pot ropes but it's usually not to bad for tackle loss.

@@fishingintheukgarywood thanks mate I havent really fished the pier like that before just float and spinner might give it a shot one time

No probs mate, good luck.

Not yet.

Fishing in the UK do you know when it will be?

I'm not sure. I think it will probably open when the lockdown eases off.
