I had laboured under the false assumption that the tide run would bring a natural close to the maccy crew's session - silly me!  Only real gripe was the sheer volume of crap left on the pier - it resembled a rubbish tip at times and the tiny fish that were being kept - talk about cradle snatching! Cheers All |
this has been happening for years,as i have posted previously most anglers steer clear of the addy till the makkies have gone, then they can have their pier back,
only problem is that with the prestigeous cruise terminal now backing on to the fishing area i believe it is only a matter of time before the dover harbour board put their foot down and say "" right !! enoughs enough ! ! no more fishing on this pier " and i'm afraid it will be the anglers ( or so called anglers ) who will be to blame
