We'll be lucky to get 6 cars in there, it's more of a lay-by.
I'll phone the golf club this week & ask them. Shouldn't be a problem though, as any mag article i've read about elliot says to park at the golf club.

I'll def phone in the moring regarding the parking. Might be a bit safer there.

There is plenty of parking on the other side of the road from the railway bridge and the golf course car park is pretty big too. I am on holiday that week so will probably pop down and visit my folks at the same time.
Never fished the beach in all the years I spent in Arbroath but from what I have been told the stretch to the south of the river is better but someone may correct me on that.

Em bait wise lug, mackeral, maddies and crab is my advise crab or maddies for the bass. Your ok parking in the golf course carpark keep driving past it towards the greenkeepers sheds and theirs a crossing over the railway, please take care as this could be the end of that crossing if someone abuses it. For this meet can I make a suggestion, everyone fishes with lightish rigs and basstype rods to maximise the fun side of flounder and turbot fishing. Rigs wise three hooks flapping 10lb snoods 20lb main bodys and 1 to 2oz waits with between size 2 n 4 hooks.

Thanks Chris.
I don't think many of us have fished Elliot before.
Looks like i'm tying up a pile of lighter rigs for this one, as the lightest i have is 15lb snood & 60lb main.
