I've one for a place in Hull, but then you'd have to explain how you caught a saltwater fish in freshwater.
Dancing in the boat!
You were lucky not to be swimming with the fishes.
Build an electronic attraction device that you hang over the side into the water.
You got any good golf ball recipes...
Why not.

Hardly a fishmonger on high streets now.
Too many getting their cut along the line..

You can buy them but no interest in them.
I'd one many moons ago, you cast it out and the watch thing told you the depth as you reeled it back in.
Hi tech then, sold it on...

Yeah, just mash it down the fairway...

We've one left(For how long is another matter) on "Fish Market Street" where there used to be eight of them.
You'd need a decent excuse as to why any fish you brought home had already been cleaned though.

Did it tell you which way they were swimming?
Maybe the fish have found a way of evading sonar by now, so won't show.
Hitech maybe, but did it improve yer catch...

You mean straight down the middle...
Cue Bing Crosby, pipe in hand, appearing.

Still got one here. Never been in as I hate the smell of raw fish. My fish has to be prepared and battered/breaded :laugh:

You'd not have enjoyed walking past, much less through the fish market they used to have in Bradford then.

Still a load of folk who aren't convinced that the fish caught at sea, are what they're eating with their chips. Even more so their fish fingers.

Mac fisheries was big business..
sold whelks (yummy) as well...
I haven't had a good boiling of them in years....
maybe an idea, mmmm
Used to pick them on the N bank of the estuary as the main channel ran alongside the South shore so all the 'effluent' stayed at that side.
Queenie clams boiled in a big pot...to die for....straight off the fishing boats
Loved my shellfish....
Had to know where it was picked from...
some folk were prone to pick in the wrong side of the river..

Apparently Mr Bing fished the Cocker on occasion, but I think I've mentioned that.

Having done a quick read of their history, there'd be objections galore if someone were to try starting that way these days.
Buy not one but two islands to build on.
As you say, a fair size business.
Where'll you get yer whelks for yer next boiling now? Pick yer own or buy...
No fishing boats now to get them from I bet.
They make decent water filters, maybe buy a dozen or so and keep them at home.

Don't think you have mentioned that little fact before.

Could pick my own...
river is much cleaner but still look at the old spots..
money to be made at it so placed were well picked the last time..
I did some picking for cash around 72-73, good money.
Cockling earned more, the best beds were near a power station.
Sadly now reclaimed (most of it for a ship iron ore terminal which never really lasted long..
bet the nimbys would be glad of that.

So old auld Bing would be casting straight across the middle...

No trouble in picking yer own then.
Not as much being dumped in it, but then there'll not be as much industry around it either.
You reckon they'd still be in the same areas, after all these years.
Did you get much from these places you picked well last time. Compared to when you picked for cash, half a century ago.
Now you've gone and put Molly Malone in my head, you realise that!!
Bob's Barrow, pushed through streets broad and narrow...
It'll be the water used for cooling that got them there. A bit like Sellafield, where there's supposed to a well established colony? there. The authorities stopped them being picked one year after they turned up for sale locally. Not certain if they glowed in the dark or not.
Reclaimed, the damage is done, the nimby's will never be happy.

Straight across the middle the best way?

Yeah, I'd imagine so..
Folk are lazy now as you can buy them somewhere...

Nimby?
nuclear power station so obvious in the views from the so called village, massive ore terminal, they even dug a big hole out to build concrete oil rigs in the mid 70s..the ore terminal never really took off.
The sands were a fantastic place, cockle beds galore, 20 mins with a rake and half a bucket no problem...
Last protest was vibration coming from the ship engines at the terminal....
Tough life...
At the time of the proposed terminal ( mid 70s? some wifies led by a minister chained themselves to House of commons railings, think they came home..
It is a fantastic area to stay though..
I would never had said no.
Too far away for babysitting duties..
I have to watch the whirling dervish for part of this morning myself..
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh

an official wet day
