Lure fishing for Bass and mackerel in the Solent - UK SMALL BOAT FISHING
I finally got back out on the boat and got the camera out. After finishing work at 1pm I quickly got down to the boat with the lovely weather we had with temperatures getting up to 29 degrees I thought I would get the lures out and try for some bass for the table. After doing a couple of drifts with the feathers I managed to get myself a few mackerel early on which was a good sign. After seeing some birds working I got the lure out for a few flicks and managed a couple of decent bass followed by a few smaller ones. It just goes to show that you done need a full day out on the water to have a productive trip on the boat. I had some bait with me but I didnt feel the need to drop the anchor and bait fish with all the fun seemed to be on the lures that day. All in All a very good afternoon catching bass and mackerel and very good fun on light gear. Lets hope that the weathers lets me back straight back out there for some more. Sometimes the solent produces some nice fish specially when the weather is on point. Hope you enjoyed the video. More to follow :)

Small Boat Fishing UK - Up tiding and Down Tiding
มุมมอง 1.3Kหลายเดือนก่อน
just a short video trying out some up tiding. I usually only down tide when I go out on my boat But a friend said up tiding is the way forward. I gave it a go and it seemed to work. I have only ever tried up tiding once and I didnt get along with it. Im looking forward to doing more when out on the boat.
Two Boats - 24hrs Overnighter - What can we catch?!? UK BOAT FISHING
มุมมอง 3.9K2 หลายเดือนก่อน
We set off for 24hrs overnighter on both our boats. The plan was to get as much fresh mackerel as we could in the evening and send it a few miles off shore first thing in the morning. We ended up only finding 1 mackerel each which obviously wasn't anywhere near enough. We decided to do some drifting over some reef but nothing came of it so we dropped the anchor and soaked some baits. Dan manage...

Small Boat fishing UK - I Don't Think Ive Ever Caught So Many Dog Fish!
มุมมอง 1.1K2 หลายเดือนก่อน
Weather looked incredible for the bank holiday weekend so I planned to head off a few miles off the needles, trying to mackerel on the way. I ended up getting 3 miles off the needles but it was dogfish city, even double hooking on the same rig so it was time to move. I came back round the other side of the needles in alum bay, dropped the anchor for some lunch and you guessed it.... more dog fi...
Small Boat Fishing UK - Oil & filter change made easy... while on the water!!
มุมมอง 5012 หลายเดือนก่อน
just a quick video of how to change the oil and filter on a outboard while still on the water. No need to spend hundreds of pounds getting the boat lifted out when you have this oil extractor pump. As you can tell I have never used one of these before but it was easy enough to simply work out how to use it. We was going to do some drone shots of both boats as well but the rain got the better of...
Small boat fishing UK - Sometimes it doesn't go to plan
มุมมอง 8K3 หลายเดือนก่อน
planned on heading out to try for some bream for the table. I knew the weather wasn't perfect but sometimes I feel like I'm waiting for the perfect weather that might never come. After seeing the weather had changed again I thought I would still go out and head towards the spot I planned to fish. I got halfway there and, even though it doesn't look that bad on the camera you can hear the boat g...

    Great video mate! This is a chunky pouting definitely 10:25 but last year I caught a 4lb 40 cm pouting in Lyme Bay. This was a beast! Bear in mind that pouting is a good eating fish, its a cod family, hugely underestimated in the UK. In some European countries you can order a pouting in a restaurant 👍 Tight lines!

    Wow, what an adventure! Despite the challenges with dogfish, it sounds like you made the most out of a beautiful day on the water. The calm weather must have made for a serene atmosphere, perfect for enjoying lunch and taking in the surroundings. Even though the big catch eluded you this time, catching that small bass on feathers was definitely a highlight. It goes to show that fishing always holds surprises, regardless of the conditions. I've just subscribed to your channel and eagerly await more of your videos.
