There's plenty of divers go in at the gare Tony,diving clubs just past the coastguard station,never hear them complaining.Mind most have a fair collection of lures and spinners in the summer.must be a fortune down there.

quiet news day tony , and they have to do something to get the news away from the muppet in india sparking up trouble with Pakistan

from the under water view i cant understand why they were not using rotten bottom rigs

very rocky with a load of kelp

the "wire " bit is just down to the bit of fluff doing the story not researching what the stuff we use is called 
if in danger or in doubt run around and scream and shout

Wire  :lol2: how thick are they lol

Can't see it doing much harm not like the muppet that leave there line not wire on
piers and beachers.

The only time i have heard divers complaining is when ya dont know they are under
the water and you start fishing and up they pop with a load of abuse lol.

They want to report proper news not s**t like that.
My blog feel free to take a look.

Divers are not keen on Anglers,for obvious reasons,we are in the firing line from all the media,mainly because of the tossers who frequent the piers etc.........would love to see a picture of the sea bed off the end of Roker pier :o
The authorities should pay divers to collect leads off the seabed,around roker alone would generate enough money to transform the seafront :up22:

sheilds pier was done by the divers when it was being repaired a while back n they recon the had over a ton and had to use the crane to lift it ashore.dont know how far true this is but when you try to do the sums over the years it must be an absalute fortune below the tide line.
back on topic it was probly a woman that was doing the reporting and thats why they said wire because they dont know any better,and what are the divers doing inthe water ,its been used for fishing longer than theres been a diving club there. roll :bang:
of all the things iv lost,
only my mind needs to be found.
