Crab fart ! 😂😂 brilliant ! Alreet Darren .. what a great little session , you did bloody well getting that nice codling at this time of year out the river mind , even in the winter there ain’t many sized codling in the tyne nowadays , not like 20 -30 year back when we’d pull 2 and 3 pounders out no probs during most sessions at hebburn, international paints or across the river at walker .. goodstuff mate 👍🏻
Just found your channel Darren, and glad I did. Great local knowledge , no crap music and well presented. Keep it up and I will be looking forward to more of the same.
another cracking video great information ,spot on with what you said about being nice to other anglers ,and keeping the marks clean , nice little session some nice codling loved the double hook up ,will be looking forward to your sessions on the beach or other marks stay safe all the best darren
Hi Darren, just popped on to subscribe and like, but caught this vid, lol.. back in the day, I used to deliver milk around st peters basin!! Not sure I'd of eaten anything out of there back then! You make an excellent point re meeting genuine folk, some of the folk I've met since I started this angling journey are purely awesome, genuine folk... We all in this together...
Hi Dave, thank you do much for watching. Totally agree, fishing is so much more than, well..fishing! Greatest pastime, in my opinion. Take it easy, my chum 👍
Was great there in early mid 1980s, used fish there before they built St Peters Basin as lived up the street next to Bottom Club. No huge fish but big bags of codlings, coalies flounders eels. Still a fun place for a chuck now as you say well done another good video.
Your spot on David. I used to fish pottery bank, when it was just grass and that old silver tubular fence. Great bags of fish and the coalies were cracking. It fished better when the river was really dirty! Always used to catch the odd durex too 🤣🤣
Your video got me thinking back about old times, yeah was filthy and smelly in mid 70s to mid 80s when l started, then cleaned up and fishing died a bit. Or was that just coincidence. As for marks Rubber factory, Whitehills Point and Howden Staiths, were my go when l started out fishing in river.
@davidmilne9911 ah the memorise my chum. Loved the rubber factory. I remember some good fish taken. The ferry landing too when you could sneak on. Fun fact, I came second in the whiteley all nighters with a good bag of codling from Willington Quay. I was beaten by a guy who we later found to be cheating out of bounds up the coast. I won a century slammer and a slosh 20. Good Times.
@@northeastangling im looking forward to the next video .keep up the great videos .i liked the bit of history , you talking about your younger years puts a personal touch on the video content .👍
Thanks bud. Much appreciated. It was literally a fish a chuck on the flood but I stopped filming. Plenty sport there and Always the chance of a good Codling 👍
Thank you very much for watching. I really appreciate that 🙂. The River Tyne can fish exceptionally well. I never discount any time of year. As they say, if you don't try, you will never know. Tight lines my chum 👍
I new you would get at least one good one they definitely like the crab n lug well done there are not many channels that show river monster fishing lol and yes you are right about some ppl who take the sport way too seriously but that's up to them if you enjoy it it get you outside and if you catch some fish all the better I love fishing with my son's and get quite excited when they catch good fish. if I see you out we will definitely come over and say hello tight lines
Great video! I do like your content and well said about fishing for the pleasure of it AND the anglers that take things too seriously, thankfully I don’t bump into that many these days but they do still exist. Your comment about dog walkers also made me smile. We do have to share the same space and I have seen / heard a bloke, probably in his late 60s berate a woman for letting her dog put its nose in his worm (not a euphemism 😅) Whilst I agree people should mind what their pets are doing, probably better for the blood pressure to laugh it off cos it’s nice to be nice. Anyway, looking forward to your next vids and making my way back up to the NE to try a venue I haven’t fished before. PS, Lenny’s bait is spot on… just saying 😁👍
Thank you so much for watching. I know it was a long drawn-out out one lol. Yeah, it's nice to be nice . I was brought up to be open and friendly and I am proud of it . I am a softy for dogs, it's the owners who are sometimes a pain. Lenny's bait is always top notch 👌 tight lines .
Nice one mate, is that where you ended up after I saw you in Lennys? Me and Chris ended up doing 14 hours at Whitehaven 😂 We decided to wait for the darkness on the high tide and we ended up getting the rays we were after and some doggies.
Great vid 🥰, would love to take the son there who’s just getting into fishing. Is there a street name I should be putting in sat nav to get to that mark? Cheers

Nice video mate, well done with the fish. Can anyone explain why you call an undersized codling a Tommy? Ive often heard it called this but never knew the reason behind it!
Hi, thanks for watching. Really appreciate it 🙏. It's a term used to describe a codling. A codling being anything under 6 pounds. After that it is classed as a cod, or mature fish. So I guess it must mean small or something. It's a term passed down through the generations of fisherman I guess. Good question though 😁. Tight lines my Chum.
@northeastangling I've fished for +40yrs also worked on trawlers in my youth, but it's only recently I've heard the term used for an undersized codling. I do know there is a fish called the Tom cod and wonder if there's a connection?
I could of swore I went down there about 3 years ago and there were no fishing signs? Mind it looked like they were put up by the residents. Nobody can stop anyone fishing there can they!
Probably the residents Robert. It's a public walkway, part of the coastal bike path, too. Residents probably got tired of people's mess or late night fishing.
Lovely chilled video and a canny little session. Tight lines!
Hello Aaron. It's always good to clear the mind. Thank you for watching 👍

Should be good Steven. Low tide is early afternoon. Be sure to try and fish 2 hours after low. Tight lines 👍

@CodWalloper more than possible! It's a phrase used a lot up here .
Can you show closely that 2 hook clip down you were using please.
Hi bud. Yeah I will do a small vid on it 👍
Thanks for that mate. I grew up on Calbeck ave just off Pottery bank.
Totally agree it’s nice to be nice match fishermen seem to think they can fish and barge in very annoying
The sport is for us all, Paul. Enjoy your fishing my chum 😁👍

@@northeastanglingI might try there today, find it hard at weekends to get anywhere on the coast
