Sory but this confirmed fish in trap and tackle is getting beyond a joke. In the last few weeks this fish has been a 4lb cod, a 6lb pollock, a 6lb cod and now a 8lb pollock. I live beside the pier, fish it regularly with a few of the other forum members and know the guys in Trap and Tackle well and have to say IMO these reports are absolute rubbish!! Besides that I can see the pier from my house and the only people to be seen down the back of it fishing a this time of year are a certain 2 forum members and myself and none of us have caught the above fish :shock: :shock: :shock:
