you could try cullernose point from the rocks using spinning or float tackle it is as good as anywhere at this time of the year.a good cod mark during winter too.if you want to venture a little further. eyemouth from the rocks behind the caravan park is a good spinning venue i generally use a spinner baited with ragworm just a little strip will give you more positive takes.good luck

Try Newbiggin beacon - this weekend should be good with the big high tides - sea needs to be flat'ish - Lynemouth (Lyneburn) can be good for mackeral on a big tide with a flat sea.

i fish at dunston point and usually catch mackerel, had a few wrasse there aswell, cullernose point ive also herd is good especially in the winter for cod, another good place is on walkworth beach on a large breakwater called north side, i used to fish there alot for mackerel.
