Whiting are in

WE have received word from our old friend Keith Lamming, proprietor of East Coast Tackle, that the whiting are in all along the Holderness coast.

Good catches of quality fish are being taken from the Dimlington area and with a north easterly at the time of writing, the cod can not be far behind.

We have already received a number of enquiries about our annual beach fishing match, but unfortunately we have decided against it, due mainly to the large number of open matches taking place over the coming months.

The first of these is a Hornsea SAC open night match on 3rd November, fishing between 6pm and 10pm.

The following week sees the prestigious Warrior Open, fished between 10am and 4pm.

December sees the Marine Teams of Four and Pairs match at Hornsea on the 9th, and if you fancy a break from the festivities there is the Hornsea CF Open on 27th December.

This match has always been one of our personal favourites.

All of these matches are £10 to enter and for registration or further details you can contact Keith on 01964 535964.
