The Brighton Street slipway area across the road from us is also now closed for about a year to finally build the new lifeboat station.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Just been down the seafront and there was a man in a digger making lots of holes, and a handful of important looking chaps peering into them.

Can only presume they are test holes as they will be full of water soon.

Spent a lot of my youth around there, I used to fish off that (catching Plaice and Bullheads) as well as jump off it (with my mates) into a rubber tyre when we was kids, that would have been around 1980”ish” good old days.


Grimsby and proud!

I went there night (well, evening) fishing with my Dad on quite a few occasions (probably late 70s/early 80s). I still remember getting quite excited about going and putting my pyjama bottoms on under my trousers to help keep me warm. Caught a lot of flatties but not too many bullyheads (as my Dad calls them) and, on the odd occasion when we went in the daytime, you could see a sea trout swimming around.

Were there grey mullet in there as well? I seem to think there were.

Yes, lots of them. Really difficult to catch.

I caught a few Flatties in that middle bit of the bridge where you climbed over the railings to fish in my youth.

Some mean looking Grimsby lads told us to move on one day when they saw us catching, so they could have our spot, we took their advise.
