Winter Boat Fishing 2021 - Monster Bass
Рет қаралды 167,745
3 жыл бұрынMy first session of 2021 and what an incredible sunrise we had to begin our new year. A fantastic crisp morning and perfect for being out on the boat. Catching Mackerel and Pilchards we fished with floats and lures on a local reef and caught an absolute monster!!! The absolute best of Sea Fishing in the UK.
For anyone interested, here are links to some of the tackle I used in this video:

John - a handy tip to keep the vehicle doors from freezing like at 01:00. Spray some silicone on a paper towel or rag and wipe down the rubber weatherstripping. The doors won't stick again and you won't run the risk of tearing the weatherstrip off the door.

Funny Story: When I was young or a bit older than James.. I used to fish with my dad. He would put a sinker on my line because he didn't have the patience(nor did I) to catch a fish. What did I catch you ask? Yep... crabs. I would reel them up and of course, they would drop off. That kept me quite occupied for a LONG time! :)

@callumclark3358 3 жыл бұрын
I know there’s no way to be sure, but I have my doubts that fish would survive. If it was a salmon, and it got handled that much, getting lifted up several times, hands in the gills and all, there would be an uproar in the comments section. Question is, is there any evidence that sea fish can tolerate the kind of treatment that would be expected to kill a game fish? I’m not being disrespectful, I really like this channel, and I’ve seen FAR worse elsewhere, with people dragging fish over rough stones and so forth, scales going everywhere, and them seeming to assume they’ll survive just because they swim away.

@@callumclark3358 it's been well documented in some studies that bass caught, released and tagged often were caught in the same area a couple of years later.
@callumclark3358 3 жыл бұрын
@@jamesoshea359 Ok, I’ll not demand references to those studies, but if they were proper studies there would be handling protocols. You’d need to check them to be sure. I’m not quite ready to concede on the point that, in general, sea fish fish seem to be subjected to much rougher handling than freshwater. In part it’s understandable, sea fish are usually caught in more challenging conditions, rocks, heavy seas, moving boats and so on. Tackle tends to be heavier, and hooks are mostly large and barbed. Level of mortality is still open to question. I’m not trying to point the finger, and I’m no expert, but I just wouldn’t touch a fish’s gills if I intended to release it.

Hi there, top tip from my army days, if a freeze is forecast, put a smear of vaseline on the rubber door seals, this allows you to open the doors and without tearing the rubber off the doors or car frame, a dab over the door lock helps the key go in if you have a mechanical door lock. That bass was a monster, stay safe all of you.

@TheFishLocker 3 жыл бұрын
- Cheers mate. It’s hard going at this time of year isn’t it. Do you get any decent flounder fishing your way? Ours has died a death over the past 5 or 6 years. I blame the increase of seals in the estuaries.
@shorefishingessex 3 жыл бұрын
It's a problem here too John, the flounder are around but not in the numbers they used to be, they are one of my favourite fish to catch as I cut my teeth shore fishing years ago catching flounder from the tidal Thames, catches into double figures were commonplace, not anymore though sadly. I never thought about the seals before but their numbers have increased around my parts as the flounder numbers have decreased, whatever the cause it's a shame as it's another, so called bread & butter fish taken away from the shore angler in the South East along with eels, codling, plaice, scad & dover sole, we even used to have a good run of twaite shad but I haven't heard of one being caught in years.

Nine pounder! Nice fish! It's those darn cold days that always produce something good on the line! When it's cold like that, I have to really push myself to actually go out. But, when I do, I'm glad I did!! Thanks for roughing the cold for us!!

I know it’s childish but I chuckle every time you tell us to keep an eye on your float to save you turning around. Little things please little minds as they say. A bass that big is still yet to find itself on the end of my spear. This year hopefully! Awesome watch as always. Cheers.

Seeing the size of this fish's head and shoulders I was sure it was going to be a 10lb fish. Maybe I'll run into her again when she's bigger 😉😛

Hello pal , cracking bass ! A just reward for a hard day , it’s just as important to demonstrate that these things don’t just jump into the boat and need working for. I’ll look forward to the shore sessions , in the meantime happy new year to yourself Hannah and The little man himself.xx
