Thank you. It’s 30-40 minutes from Kingsbridge to The Bar, depending on the tide. The estuary can be very productive but I rarely fish it as I prefer to be out at sea and not dealing with weed on the line. 👍

Hi, I use Cox and Rawle uptide booms as I find them much stronger than the hockey stick shaped booms. These always straighten with a decent fish on them. I use ones that are about 5 inches long but only because that size fits well in my lure box!

@@fishingsalcombe thanks for that much appreciated currently watching the back catalogue of posts from your channel you seem to have very chilled out attitude towards fishing have watched all of mr lockers and manic fishing and I am enjoying yours equally many thanks

Appreciate the feedback, thanks Kevin👍

Cheers Gareth 👍

Yes, that was my ‘sausages’ moment! I put in the description that I’d made that gaff but you’re right, Rapala knot for the lures, Palomar on the swivels 👍🎣

Thanks Mike, glad you enjoyed it and good luck if you give it a go 🎣👍

That’s very kind thanks Martyn, I’ll bear that in mind when it’s time for winter jobs! 👍

@@fishingsalcombe no problem. You'd be very welcome.

I always use Cox and Rawle uptide booms (Ashby’s!)

just seen you mention them later rob , thanks

Cheers Paul, happy that you enjoyed it! 👍

Thanks Martin, hope it works for you!👍🎣

Hi Blair, I use Cox and Rawle uptide booms. I find these much more robust than the hockey stick type booms which always deform when you have a decent fish on 🎣👍

Definitely 👍

Thanks mate👍

Thanks for the feedback, glad you’re enjoying the videos!👍

Cheers John, yes, fantastic eating fish 👍

Cheers bud, it was a decent day for slack water! 🎣👍

Thanks Bob!👍

Thanks Dave, got some nice fillets off the JD!👍

Cheers Carl 👍

Oh no! Look forward to hearing from you Stipo!

I’ve found it! You replied to another comment!

As usual not the smartest out here😂

Cheers bud, yes, very pleased with the John Dory👍

Thanks David👍

Also, as a side note - I use about 2-3 ft of fluorocarbon. The fish seems not to care about the braided line. Some people completely skip the fluorocarbon and tie the lure directly to the braided line.

Thanks for the feedback, I’ll look into use a clip, it would certainly make life easier if it doesn’t put the fish off 🎣👍

Thanks Stuart👍

Not sure about that and I’ve thrown the box away. I use the 4 inch version and they only come in one weight from the shop I use 👍

@fishingsalcombe thanks, I'll take a look, new to that style of fishing but want to get out into deeper water next year and give it a go. I'm planning a trip to salcombe next year as I seen they have a nice slipway and parking available

Yes, it’s a good slip at Salcombe and useable at pretty much all stages of the tide.

Thanks bud 👍

Cheers Mark👍

Thank you! I pass the end of Frogmore Creek but my boat is moored at Kingsbridge. I often visit Frogmore Creek in the summer, some of my favourite picnic spots are in that direction 👍

As usual a most entertaining video, with a bunch of tips and tricks. I have stolen your idea how to seperate your lines, so thanks for that simple but splendid idea 👍 Had a laugh when you got 2 rods catching fish at the same time, indeed an exiting moment. John Dory.....what a super catch. I only had 1 JD years ago fishing in Ireland and as you said it tasted wunderfull. Only thing that surprises me every time i watch video's from the UK (so not just yours) is how heavy your rods are. I have fished many times in Denmark and 3 times in Norway in the Tromso area, that is several hundreds of miles above the arctic circle and we all fish with heavy bassrods. I prefer the seabass special 75 - 125 grams. That rod is strong enough for the fjords we have fished. If you are "unlucky" to catch a halibut over 50 kg than this rod is outgunned. But still my heaviest cod was 19 kg and my hevigst halibut was just over 22 kg. It is just a matter of taking time to land the fish or saving goooodbey. Ofcourse i have pictures and video's of all my catches overthere. When going fishing on the wrecks from Dutch harbours, noby uses anything else than a bassrod. So thats how some idiote like and my friends fish. And again i hope you come around with another video soon. Like your video's very mutch. Thanks and greetz from Stipo from Holland

Thanks Stipo! The trend here is definitely going towards lighter rods but when I think back to rods we used to use when I first started fishing, a 12-20lb class rod would have been ultra light then! The slimness of the rods we use today (thanks to carbon construction) would only have been used by fresh water fishermen! Tight lines my friend 🎣👍

I have no experience of the 165 sorry. My preference for engine brands would be Yamaha or Suzuki. I have a friend with an Explorer Elite, which is very similar to the 165 I would say. He has a 70 Suzuki four stroke on that which goes very nicely 👍

I’ve heard many explanations (excuses!). Possibly the best one is that east winds are generally cold and generally come with a high pressure system, this ‘shocks’ the phyto and zoo plankton and this rattles right through the ecosystem to put the whole food chain off feeding. Not sure if that stands up to scientific scrutiny but something puts the fish off!!

Mine is the 25 QT BMX. I have a piece of plastic that sits in the fuel hatch gutter to prevent it sliding back. The size works well for me for cool storage and a seat 👍

@@fishingsalcombe I agree it does work better. Thank you

Fair enough mate, I do like my fishing boat, as long as it doesn’t smell like one! 👍

Cheers mate 👍

Thanks, I’ll have a look at that 👍

I use that stuff for the garden equipment, saves an awful lot of time and can leave it without causing issues. Bit pricey but never thought of using it for the Aux till now

Cheers mate 👍

Thanks Jimmy👍

Thank you and good luck finding a boat!👍

@@fishingsalcombejust a quick question what size is your penn?

@supermotoxcw7695 I have a 15 and a 30. The 15 is my favourite size and it’s the two speed lever drag.

I've just got mine a few months ago, first time owner. Once you're prepared to do a small bit of work then you'll be happy out

@@fishingsalcombe thanks

Thanks Dave, yes, that would help but the cable route isn’t easy and that locker isn’t ventilated. Easier at the design stage, which would have helped but not an easy retrofit 👍

👍

Thank you 👍

Cheers Lee👍

Thanks Dave, appreciate the comments 👍

Thank you Stipo, boat prices seem to be finally coming down after the Covid boom. Maybe time to get one? 👍🎣🛥️

Thanks Mark, glad you enjoyed the watch 👍

Thank you, it’s just an explanation of my thoughts and it’s definitely a bigger subject than just wear or don’t wear. Cheers for subscribing 👍

Glad you enjoyed watching, good look explaining coriolis over dinner 🤣👍

That’s a fair point, however, the poor thing was riddled with parasites. It also wasn’t too heavy and not in pup. I’ve had them on the deck before and they’re difficult to handle with one hand without getting spiked by one of those spurs so on balance, for my safety and the welfare of the spurdog, I handled it that way to clear it of most of its parasites. Thanks for watching 👍

Yes, it was very pronounced in the sky! 👍

Thanks Ian👍🎣

Love gurnard, loads about, just not quite big enough to take 👍

Thanks Paul, hopefully not such a big gap before the next one!👍
