Nice to hear of a decent codling from up that way Iain. What sort of size was it?

Ahh a live bait rig! So I see the idea, you catch a small fish and then the big fella eats him. I think the big fella fell off?

2HP is the strength of the fish...... everyone know that.

You chaps never hear of a 2 Hook Paternoster?
Seriously the geezer reckoned it was the biggest he'd seen caught on that stretch for a few months - says something terrible about the state of the stocks along the east coast
