Well hi Barry I'm sitting here in Oregon watching your video love your attitude and how you handle life. You're a great example to others. Especially me. Thank you
Hello John. Thank you so much for your kind words, sir. We are so glad that not only you have enjoyed our vlog, but you love the direction that OMAHB is heading in. We can't thank you enough for your wonderful support. Have a great weekend ahead. All the very best.😍😁👌
Wow the accent takes me back Barry to working in Leith in my twenties and one of very few surfers that called Pease Bay their home break. Now in my seventies and calling OZ my home I I still remember catching Mackerel with my old man on feathers and a sinker with a hand line, Great footage.
Hi Doug. Thank you so much for your wonderful comment and for sharing some of your memories of mackerel bashing and surfing. I do hope that you like what you see and have a little return visit to our channel to see what the next adventure is up next for the Lynsey B.😍😁👌 All the very best.😊
Hi David. Thank you very much indeed for your kind comment. We really do appreciate the feedback 😍😁👌 We shall always do our best to whats right for the little inshore fleet.💪😉👍 We hope you enjoy the rest of your day. All the best.😊
Excellent vid Barry you must have the best camera man on the east coast when i seen the broken dahn I thought it was a boats prop must have had a rope cutter fitted nice to see the mackerel two or three days they will be in the forth
Thank you, bud. All credit for this vlog must go to the wonderful Jeff Carter. This man works so hard bringing quality vlogs like this.😍😁👌 Yeah, I was shocked and took a wee minute to figure out how we got into this situation and how to solve it.🤣🤣🤣 It's nice to see the mackerel running. It's far cheaper and fresher pot bait than the frozen stuff we have to pay over the odds for. Plus...it's blooming fun.🎣🎣🎣😍😍😁👌🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Hope you have a great weekend, bud. All the best.😊
So aggravating...now matter how many times ive hit the subscribe button it just dont seem near as satisfying as giving it your all on the sea. Love it. Amazing content. Me and the wife are tryng to retire in the next 10 years and finish out our days fishing and traveling on the sea. ive been a mechanic for 25 years and we are trying to learn all we can. Learned a lot from some family in florida that have a rigged center console for some trolling and a few other things. We are looking at a 40-50 foot combination boat. Maybe with no engines so i could install something updated and more efficient. Work are way into it over 5 years. Fingers crossed anyway.
Wow! Now that sounds like an adventure!💪😁👌 And all we can say is good luck. You certainly have the right skill set to own a boat, as theirs always something needing done.🤣🤣🤣 Thank you so much for your kind comment. All the very best.😁👌
Hi Steven. Jeff is definitely a master of his work. The different types of footage certainly does make it a more interesting vlog. We certainly got a great day for it, very rare in the North Sea 😁👌 Thank you so much for your comment All the best.😊
Chap on Anglesey showed me how to quickly despatch mackerel, I expect you do similar. Index finger into the mouth, pad upwards, to the back of the head, thumb on top of the back of the head, quick twist upwards to snap the spine. Love a bit of mackerel and great sport on really light tackle.
Hi John. Thank you so much for your comment. There's also the knife at the back of the skull and draw it forward method, very barbaric, but does the job just the same. I must admit, I prefer the way you described it. It's far quicker and less messy.😁👌 Mackerelling is such fun when they are running. We love this time of year.🎣🐟😁👌 All the best. 😊
I wish I could post a photo or video. I came across a school of Mackrell recently in South Australia. The Mack’s were all above 450mm long. Probably 4 acres in area and went from the surface down to about 20 m. There must have been millions of them. We caught about 10 of them and smoked them. Very tasty
I used to love fishing for mackerel in the 1970s it was magical, Blue shark fishing waters on the see front in Rhyl north wales I was in my teens and couldn’t wait for the holidays,we were from Coventry Hard work on a trace of six, They were much bigger then ,it’s nice to see it still off the line My last trip was with my youngest son in colwyn bay 2005, we would venture out off the coast near Llandudno the great Orme and bout 6hr trip memorable experience he loved it ,that day I spent most of the time untangling his fishing lines lol
Hi Dennis. Thank you very much for this wonderful comment. We love to hear how OMAHB kick starts the memories of such wonderful times.😁👌 That's always the worst about a 6 trace line, the tangle 🙈🙈🙈🤣🤣🤣 All the very best.😁
Hi Neil. Thank you so much for the kind comment and support buddy. I really do appreciate it. I'm so hoping for a better year, as you know we need it.🙏🤞😍😁👌🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Hope you have a great weekend bud All the best 😊
Loved the commentary and the happy smiles mate as a brit i love the Scottish welsh and Irish accent and the sense of humour and make you 100 percent about the people in government
Hi Carl. Thank you so much for your kind comment. 😁 We are so glad you enjoyed the vlog. You certainly have to have a good sense of humour to be a fisherman 🙈🤣🤣🤣🤣 All the very best. Baz.😉👍
Ahh memories, as a 13 year old mackerel fish of the rocks south of Wick A bamboo rid, corlene and a trace if 6 feathers Basket upon basket of them, before we emigrated to Australia in 1969
I loved every minute of this video mate i hope you have more and prosperous times ahead thank you for all the explanation of what the government and the EU are buggering up
You are more than welcome, sir. And that's just the tip of the iceberg with politics of it all. Fisheries is just a money-making pawn for crooks in suits, i.e., the government, but we all know that now.😁👌
All the best just joined Will be visiting Scotland fishing coast on a tour will be making FILM as I travel around the coast I am a drone pilot and hope to get good footage Scotland has always been close to my heart the people and places
Hi Martin, welcome and thank you for subscribing to OMAHB. If you are visiting Dunbar on your travels please let us know. You can contact Barry or Jeff directly through the contact page at www.omahb.com
I've just found your channel and it's brilliant. It brings back extremely fond memories of my holidays in roseharty . I had family up there and had family friends with a trawler, yes it's slightly different but our family friend also went into lobster fishing when he retired from trawling. Absolutely love it please keep it up. You have a new subscriber. Many thanks Graham
Hello Graham. Thank you very much indeed for this wonderful comment. We love to hear stories on how our channel is involved in people's lives, especially when it brings back those fond memories. 😍😁👌 We used trawl as well, but with things getting ridiculous from the government, we decided to down size to something more manageable for one man.😁👌 I'm so glad you have joined our ever growing family, and we do hope that we can keep those fond memories coming coming back, with our vlogs.😁👌 Enjoy the rest of your week. All the very best, Baz.😊
Hi Gary. Thank you so much for this wonderful comment. We are glad you enjoyed this vlog. Yeah, the lobsters aren't the biggest, I certainly put it down to bad management and years of overfishing, but no one seems to care, but the select few.😞🙈 All the best 😊
New subscriber here Barry ,came across your channel by accident brilliant video and those Mackies were massive. Time to catch up with your other videos. Stay safe Gary.
Bravo pour cette vidéo, je suis breton et pêcheur de temps en temps, J'ai beaucoup apprécié que vous remettiez à l'eau tous les crustacés qui ne font pas la taille
Thank you for answering me , your translation into French is very good . I am currently watching your videos from the Caucasus to Central Asia with pleasure ,i go back and forth between Armenia and Brittany ( my wife being Armenian and still working )
What a beautiful morn is right Baz, I miss having that scenery as an office. Great bit of mackerel fishing. Are you salting them down ?? 100% behind you on the regs man, I once saw a sticker DO NOT STEAL, the government doesn't like competition!!! Never a truer word said. Cheers
Hi Jack. Yeah, you can't beat it when the morning is like that, in all accounts. Nice weather, great fishing...just the perfect day really.😍😁👌 There are a lot of fisherman/ woman behind me mate, something needs done and soon, as these buggers are running wild with there rules and regs with zero sense behind it all.🤷♂️ Thank you for your kind comment. Enjoy the rest of your weekend All the best 😊
I like the new style channel Barry. I haven't watched for a while. As a country boy it's good to see Dunbar from the sea. Also good to see an ex Warrander Crescent man , like my self doing well
Hello Willie. It's lovely to hear from a warrender Crescent warrior 😍😁👌🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thank you so much for your kind comment, I'm so glad you enjoyed this vlog. This wonderful vlog is all down to the skills of our lovely Jeff Carter, who is certainly a master of his craft, so I certainly wouldn't dream of taking any of his credit.😁👌 We hope you will tune in on Wednesday for a very amusing " short" vlog. Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend. All the very best. 😊
Hi John Thank you so very much indeed bud. Beautiful morning it was, so glad the mackerel were running well.😍😁👌 Hope you have a wonderful weekend bud All the best 😊
Hi Farid. Welcome aboard!😁 We do hope you enjoyed the vlog and will consider becoming a subscriber, if you want to see more fishing content. All the best.😊
Mackerel bashing...love the phrase. Back up in Rhode Island we used to have massive mackerel runs. Two guys, one rod each, four hundred pounds an hour. Two hours of fishing & you could almost pay for your fuel for the day. Yea...the big guys used to shatter the price. @ five cents a pound. We got our hands on an old walk-in cooker & converted it into a smoke house. No more nickel a pound anymore mackerel for us...lol. Love the vid. Thanx for posting Bud.
Wow! That's some price per hr 🤣🤣🤣🤣...can I have a job!🤣🤣🤣😍😁👌 Yeah, I'm actually thinking down that route myself. Too much we are in the buyers pockets, because they are established...would love to sell direct from the boat, where our customers would get fresh quality everytime 😍😁👌 Thank you so much for your wonderful comment. Enjoy the rest of your weekend bud. All the best 😊
@@onemanandhisboat Heck you need to remember this was back in the day. Late 70's. Most of what we were selling was bootlegged to restaurants & hotels. COD bud. And I'm not talking about the fish. lmao. Now a days you can get away with a little bit of "shack" (cash sales). But not much. Today with the licenses & health inspections it would be almost imposable for the little guy to score three of four times a month without breaking one law or another.
I'm so glad that we are not the only ones who have to deal with all these government groups and their " laws"🙈🙄🙄🙄 It's how the world is run these days, control!🫣😔 If I ever win the lottery, I'm off to buy my own island, where I can make my own rules and regs, 😁👌🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 It will be a bit hard, though, as I don't play the lottery 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@onemanandhisboat I have been lucky enough to see a lot of Scotland, beautiful country.Its a shame more people don't visit. We were in Kirkwall not so long ago. What an amazing place. Anyway, all the best to you, and please keep posting ,
Hi Christopher. Welcome to the OMAHB family. We are so chuffed to have you aboard. We are looking forward to making many more vlogs. Thank you so much commenting😁👌
I caught a very big mackerel handlining of weymouth when I was a kid. Even the boat owner was impressed and he made sure I got my fish. I had two strings with three fish on each, where as other people had five on theirs. That's how big it was and I will never forget that day.
Hi Clive. Thank you so much for your comment and telling us your story. We always love to hear how OMAHB rekindles some lovely memories of our viewers 😍😁👌 All the best.😊
1975 , When I was 9 yrs old my dad took us fishing , out of Lyme Regis, on a 2hr mackerel charter boat trip we were fishing with hand lines . I never forgot the magic of that bump bump bump when I caught my first Mackerel. It was a Tuna in my mind . A gift from the sea. I always tell my kids, fishing is like Christmas, You never know what you will get.
Hi Shaun. Yes, there's nothing quite like that 1 St hit from the mackerel. I really love this time of year, mostly because they are tuna sized.😉👍🤣🤣🤣🤣 don't worry, you're nothing the only one, to think that😉👍🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thank you so much for taking the time to comment and sharing your fond memories of your experiences. We just love that part.😁👌 Enjoy the rest of your week. All the best 😊
Hi Alan. Thank you for your kind comment. We are so glad you love the boat and all our hard work with creating this journey. Enjoy the rest of your day All the best.😊
Barry i will say what you can not on you tube This goverment dose not no any think about sea fishing they could not give a ==== about fishermen like you ,You work so hard for the pennys you get paul liverpool
Hi Paul. Thank you so much for taking the time to write this accurate comment. The government has never cared about the working man throughout history. They got rid of the ship builders, the coal miners, and the steel workers. Fishermen are just next on their hit list, unfortunately 😞😞😞 We hope you enjoyed the vlog all the same. All the very best, mate.😁
Hi Barry. I just binge watch everything you posted. Took 3 days lol. Can i make a suggestion. When out at sea it would be nice to listen to you talking and just to hear the sounds of the sea and all the other sounds on the boat. Its way better than that music playing... Don't know if other ppl have the same views ? Just a thought. I have subscribed and keep the videos coming. Absolutely brilliant watch 👍
Hi Graham. Thank you so much for this fine effort on binge watching our vlogs!....not surprised it took you 3 days to view them all🤣🤣🤣🤣 Yes, others have commented on this as well. And we love to hear feedback from our followers like this because that's how our channel grows.😍😁👌 We are so glad that you love our channel, and we shall do our best to do the best by our followers in up a coming vlogs. All the very best.😊
@elmerfud44 - this is Jeff Carter (OMAHB Cameraman / Editor / Producer). First of all thank you for subscribing to the channel and taking the time to binge watch the videos. On your suggestion, as Barry says we do take all views into consideration. Sometimes we need the music to cover up the howling wind, the blank spaces in between chats and to put underneath the drone footage. However the latest few vlogs I have edited I have left some of the sequences without music as the ambient noise from the sea-birds etc has been good (plus Barry has been very chatty - more than usual). So please bear with us, we will have some sequences with music and others without. Thanks again for your support :)
@@MacLeanComms..Thank you for taking the time to answer . Not many vlogs even look at the comments. I suppose when you all get into the thousands it becomes more difficult. Thanks again for your explanation my friend. Its very professional 👌
As a diver ive seen many lines of potts and of course don't touch. Crabs easier for us to catch, you see a depression in the sea bed and head for it. lobsters seem to be rarer now. Scallops my favourite. My first time on your channel ,, looking forward to seeing more.
Hi Dean Thank you very much for your comment and support. We are glad you're enjoying the channel and the content. You are certainly braver man than I. I'll leave you to go under the water...I'll stock to on top.🤣🤣🤣 Thank you for the interest insight into your life. All the very best 😊
Hi Mathew. Thank you for your comment. Sometimes they do, especially when weather conditions are poor, you just have to take your time and deal with the situation before you.😁👌 All the best.😉👍
What a lovely office you have… are you sure you don’t want to work 9-5 in London pay £7 an hour to park then congestion change…. Thank you for posting this. You can’t beet local knowledge and experience! 🤓
Hi B Br, Thank you for your offer, but I'm afraid I'll have to decline 🤣🤣🤣😁👌 You're more than welcome. Thank you so much for your comment. All the best.😊
Cygnus 21 lovely build I have worked on bigger versions always decked in and a bit rolley poley always with a wheel house what speed does yours do seems to clip along well. Great video's
Hi there, Clevelander. Thank you very much indeed for your kind comment. I've worked on a GM33, 2 infact. And we used to own a GM32 before the idea of the Lynsey B came about. Great sea boats, but like you say, very rolley Poley! Can't beat the Cygnus roll🤣🤣🤣🤣 She does 5.5knots at 1700 rpm. Obviously, she can do more, but being a displacement Hull, she will always be limited on speed. But what she lacks in speed, she makes up in sea keeping. She is the BEST boat I've ever had the pleasure to sail/ work on, for her size😁👌 Hope you keep with us, bud. All the very best.😊
Self employed builder. You don't get paid, if you don't put effort in. Spent years around boats. Worked on them for 10 years. The sea is a tough place. 😊
Hi bud Thank you for your comment And you're so right. It's hard graft, week after week, but definitely worth it.😍😁👍 Especially when our mistress can be so cruel 🌬🌬🌬🌊🌊🌊 All the very best. 😊
Great Both informative & realaxing to view is it essential to go boat fishing for Mackeral to increase your chances ? As I’ve never caught any off Chesil beach in Dorset or Ilfracombe pier North Devon ? and exactly how far out and deep is 14 Fathoms ? Would be great to know that keep making the videos looking forward to the next buddy 👍🏻
Hi Ian. Thank you very much for your interesting questions. No, you don't need a boat to increase your chances, especially if you have a long pier. It really all depends on your area and how the shoals are moving through that area. Ask a local fishermen, they can give you a better idea of where and when best to fish. Fathoms is basically half in meters. So 14 fathom is 28 meters. It's the way fishermen have always measured. For us, 14 Fathoms is about 1.5 to 2 miles out, depending if we are east or west of the harbour. I hope these are the answers you're looking for. All the best.😁
Early mornings worth getting up for that sunrise beautiful and great filming by Jeff, seeing Lynsey B from the drone was great and the pots float away underwater film jelly fish lobsters brilliant. LWas brilliant you caught all those mackarelsand I loved seeing the poos, not sure I want to eat one now 😂I was worried you'd lost that fleet, realy hard work no wonder your arms sore hope it gets better soon, I love how you keep us informed and show us your catch even the wee codling posed for a photo 😁🐠
Hi Anne. I'm so sorry for the late reply. As you can imagine, I'm always super busy. Thank you as always for your terrific support. We always love to read your comments. I'm so glad you loved this vlog. It certainly took a good bit of creating by our wonderful Jeff 😊 Don't worry about eating those " edible crabs" they will still taste delicious 😋 😁👌🤣🤣🤣🤣 We hope you have a wonderful week ahead. All the very best.😊
Hi Adrian. What a wonderful comment. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts.😍👌 Trust me, it's better just to watch on a Saturday, nice and warm and dry in your home 🤣🤣🤣😁👍 All the very best.😊
Hi Jim Thank you for your comment. Much appreciated, mate. Motorhomes are everywhere at the harbour just now. We can't even get parked to get to work in the mornings.🤣🤣🤣 I wish ELC ( East Lothian Council) would be more accommodating for motor homes. After all, they do bring tourism to the area.🤷♂️😁👌 And maybe the lads and I could get to work in the mornings🤣🤣🤣🤣 Enjoy the rest of your evening bud. All the best.😊
Jusy joined yer vlogs, how the hell do you make ends meet. It looks very frustrating having to put the smaller ones back, but I can see why, food for the future. All the same wouldn't mind having a go myself, those Mackerel looked tasty.
Hi Garry. It's a struggle at times to make ends meet. But every fisherman and their families go through this year in, year out. Oh you're right shout the mackerel. 😍😁👌 We hope you enjoy the channel. All the best.😊
Hi Adrian. Thank you for your comment and question. They are just PVC plastic, the stuff that they use in industrial freezers for curtains. 😁👌 I hope all goes well. All the best.😊
Hi Danny Boy Thank you so much for the kind comment and the subscription 😊 😁👌 Give it time bud, you'll soon pick up the Scottish or jockinees as we call it.🤣🤣🤣 All the best, bud.😉👍
Hi bud. Not a truer word spoken! It's an absolute disgrace the way Fisher folk are being treated like common criminals, all to keep those government jockeys in a job....makes me sick😡😡😡😡 Thank you for you're comment bud. All the best.😊
Thank you for your comment. You are so correct, right of the boat and onto your plate is the only way to eat mackerel.. because it's an oilly fish like herring, and length of time, or any type of heat of day, and it starts breaking down rather rapidly. I hope your next mackerel tasting will be a better experience 😁👌 All the best. Baz.😉👍
Hi Sea wench. Thank you for your comment. No, I didn't lose my pots, as we have 2 ends on our fleets/ strings. It was just a matter of going to the other end and hauling from there. If it was in a prop, the rope itself would be all twisted before and after the cut.😁👌 I hope that answers your question. All the best.😊
Hi Peter. No, I didn't lose my pots, we have 2 ends on our fleets/ strings. It's just a matter of going to the other end and hauling from there, then sort it out in the right direction when you get to the end of that fleet.😁👌 Thank you so much for your comment 😊 Enjoy your weekend All the best 😊
Hi Barry, do you do charters taking guys out fishing I’d like to go out and get a load of mackerel for my smoker, please let me know how to get in touch, regards Jimf Edinburgh 👍🏻
Hi Jim. Thank you so much for your comment. Unfortunately, I can't bud. It's an insurance/MCA nightmare More bother and expense than it's worth, I'm afraid.😞🙈 Hope you enjoy the rest of your evening. All the best 😊
That is a real shame about your health, bud. Our hearts go out to you. At least you can get to see the Lynsey B go through her paces every week. I know it's no consolation to experiencing something magnificent like going to sea yourself, but hopefully, it will give you some joy.😉👍 All the very best.😉👍
Hi I seen your video about making scupper covers from stainless but I see you have changed your mind with them. Was there a reason for it? Ave just bought a boat with scuppers and was looking for ideas for covers.
Hi Craig. Thank you very much for your comment and question. It was more to do with the dreaded MCA route. The basics answer to your question are the scupper covers I have now, will let more bulk water out ( not that a 21ft boat will be out in conditions to get bulk water🙄🙄🙄🙄) Where as the stainless cover would only let out inches of water out per scupper, if that makes sense? So, as nice looking, and probably better for keeping water out a small vessel, in the MCA's eyes, they are no good.....but! That was just my vessel, I'm sure you know how the MCA work by now, with the inshore sector ( they DON'T!😡😡😡) I hope your boat will be different. 🤞🙏😁👌 I hope that answers your question, bud. Any more, just fire away. All the best.😉👍
@@onemanandhisboat Thanks very much for replying. Yeah that’s makes sense you need to keep yourself right. Ave bought a 27ft boat purely for pleasure so I don’t have to worry about MCA. I think I’ll go with the stainless option because I think it looks better. Thanks again for replying and your help. All the best buddy👍
Atlantic and Atka mackerel from Alaska are high in inflammation-fighting omega-3s and low in mercury, but not all mackerel get a thumbs-up. King mackerel, from the Western Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico, has a high mercury content. Zumpano suggests limiting Spanish mackerel as well due to mercury concerns.
Thank you, Jackie. Yes, I hurt it a few weeks back lifting these stupid steel pots, and it's been giving me jip ever since....mind you, its my own fault, I'm not as young as my mind thinks I am.🤣🤣🤣🤣😁👌 I'm sure it will heal over time.🤞🙏😁👌 We hope you're keeping well? Much love and hugs.xxx
Oh for sure Andy. I've said it before, I would trust the government to manage a sweetie shop in the middle of a playground. About time they started they done some good to this country, instead of take,take ,take attitude....but that will never happen, it doesn't matter whose in the hot seat....they all end up the same eventually 😔
Hi Orlos. Yeah, the Scottish accent can be a bit hard to understand, and that's me being polite and not speaking full jockoniess! ( broad scottish) Keep watching, just like learning English. You'll soon get it.😁👌 Other than my accent, we do hope you enjoyed the vlog. Enjoy the rest of your day All the best. 😊
I overheard my English colleague telling to my Scottish colleague how on earth they both speak English but can’t understand each other. This was back in Dubai 1990’s
can unlimited ammounts of men n women go to sea and farm until gone? i dont understand it myself either.but i sure subscribed mate. thank ya very much for sharing the adverntures.
Hi Rob Thank you very much indeed for the comment and support by subscribing 😍😁👌 For the UK, at least we hardly have a fishing industry now, all thanks from poor management responsibilities from our government. They would rather sail sustainable small business under the bridge and increase industrial fishing (ships) and you can tell their plan due to the ridiculous regulations of small business are having to suffer, because of there greed....but as far as my comments go, this is world wide🫣🙈 All the best 😊
Well hi Barry I'm sitting here in Oregon watching your video love your attitude and how you handle life. You're a great example to others. Especially me. Thank you

Fuckin hell this is my new favourite channel! What an absolute joy to watch, cheers
Wow! Thank you for the kind comment Cal.😁👌
Wow the accent takes me back Barry to working in Leith in my twenties and one of very few surfers that called Pease Bay their home break. Now in my seventies and calling OZ my home I I still remember catching Mackerel with my old man on feathers and a sinker with a hand line, Great footage.
Hi Doug.
Thank you so much for your wonderful comment and for sharing some of your memories of mackerel bashing and surfing.
I do hope that you like what you see and have a little return visit to our channel to see what the next adventure is up next for the Lynsey B.😍😁👌

Excellent vid Barry you must have the best camera man on the east coast when i seen the broken dahn I thought it was a boats prop must have had a rope cutter fitted nice to see the mackerel two or three days they will be in the forth
Thank you, bud.
All credit for this vlog must go to the wonderful Jeff Carter. This man works so hard bringing quality vlogs like this.😍😁👌
Yeah, I was shocked and took a wee minute to figure out how we got into this situation and how to solve it.🤣🤣🤣
It's nice to see the mackerel running.
It's far cheaper and fresher pot bait than the frozen stuff we have to pay over the odds for.
Plus...it's blooming fun.🎣🎣🎣😍😍😁👌🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hope you have a great weekend, bud.
All the best.😊
So aggravating...now matter how many times ive hit the subscribe button it just dont seem near as satisfying as giving it your all on the sea. Love it. Amazing content. Me and the wife are tryng to retire in the next 10 years and finish out our days fishing and traveling on the sea. ive been a mechanic for 25 years and we are trying to learn all we can. Learned a lot from some family in florida that have a rigged center console for some trolling and a few other things. We are looking at a 40-50 foot combination boat. Maybe with no engines so i could install something updated and more efficient. Work are way into it over 5 years. Fingers crossed anyway.
Wow! Now that sounds like an adventure!💪😁👌
And all we can say is good luck.
You certainly have the right skill set to own a boat, as theirs always something needing done.🤣🤣🤣

Lovely video .I like that your using the drone as well and the underwater shots .makes for more interesting footage good work love it
Hi Steven.
Jeff is definitely a master of his work.
The different types of footage certainly does make it a more interesting vlog.
We certainly got a great day for it, very rare in the North Sea 😁👌
Thank you so much for your comment

Chap on Anglesey showed me how to quickly despatch mackerel, I expect you do similar. Index finger into the mouth, pad upwards, to the back of the head, thumb on top of the back of the head, quick twist upwards to snap the spine.
Love a bit of mackerel and great sport on really light tackle.
Hi John.
Thank you so much for your comment.
There's also the knife at the back of the skull and draw it forward method, very barbaric, but does the job just the same.
I must admit, I prefer the way you described it. It's far quicker and less messy.😁👌
Mackerelling is such fun when they are running.
We love this time of year.🎣🐟😁👌
All the best. 😊

Great drone footage 👋
Thank you.😍😁👌
I love someone who loves their work and loves fishing.. still not sure of about half of what he said but still enjoyed the video 👍
Hi Bruce.
Thank you for your comment and support. We really appreciate it 😁👌
I wish I could post a photo or video. I came across a school of Mackrell recently in South Australia. The Mack’s were all above 450mm long. Probably 4 acres in area and went from the surface down to about 20 m. There must have been millions of them. We caught about 10 of them and smoked them. Very tasty
Plus this is the first time i have seen one of your videos and hit that button straight away brilliant
Thank you so much, Carl.
That's brilliant, bud. we really do appreciate your support 😁👌
I used to love fishing for mackerel in the 1970s it was magical,
Blue shark fishing waters on the see front in Rhyl north wales
I was in my teens and couldn’t wait for the holidays,we were from Coventry
Hard work on a trace of six,
They were much bigger then ,it’s nice to see it still off the line
My last trip was with my youngest son in colwyn bay
2005, we would venture out off the coast near Llandudno the great Orme and bout 6hr trip memorable experience he loved it ,that day I spent most of the time untangling his fishing lines lol
Hi Dennis.
Thank you very much for this wonderful comment.
We love to hear how OMAHB kick starts the memories of such wonderful times.😁👌
That's always the worst about a 6 trace line, the tangle 🙈🙈🙈🤣🤣🤣
All the very best.😁
Take care kind sir ,stay safe
Now that was a better day out, well done Barry 👍
Let's hope it continues to get better and better, you deserve some good luck this year mate. 🍻
Hi Neil.
Thank you so much for the kind comment and support buddy.
I really do appreciate it.
I'm so hoping for a better year, as you know we need it.🙏🤞😍😁👌🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hope you have a great weekend bud
All the best 😊
Loved the commentary and the happy smiles mate as a brit i love the Scottish welsh and Irish accent and the sense of humour and make you 100 percent about the people in government
Hi Carl.
Thank you so much for your kind comment. 😁
We are so glad you enjoyed the vlog.
You certainly have to have a good sense of humour to be a fisherman 🙈🤣🤣🤣🤣
All the very best.
Baz.😉👍
Watched you guys filming last weekend, as I was in the camper at the harbour, really enjoyed it.
Cheers Scott
Hi Scott.
I'm glad you loved our wee harbour and to see history in the making too, bonus 🤣🤣🤣😁👌
Next time, tip the hat bud,always up for a bleather😉👍
Just came across your channel thanks for brining back memories yes fishing is a great thing
Thank you for your comment and support.😍😁👌
Glad we helped bring back some happy memories 😊
Ahh memories, as a 13 year old mackerel fish of the rocks south of Wick
A bamboo rid, corlene and a trace if 6 feathers
Basket upon basket of them, before we emigrated to Australia in 1969
Hi Glen.
We are glad this vlog brought back some wonderful memories for you.

Love your videos, Barry! Some years ago, I spent time up in Wick, Scotland. Lots of good Scots up there too! Same strong accent. Love it!
Thank you very much indeed for your kind comment and support.

very straightforward boat you have
Thank you.
Simple works great😁👌
All the best.😁
I loved every minute of this video mate i hope you have more and prosperous times ahead thank you for all the explanation of what the government and the EU are buggering up
You are more than welcome, sir.
And that's just the tip of the iceberg with politics of it all. Fisheries is just a money-making pawn for crooks in suits, i.e., the government, but we all know that now.😁👌
Enjoyed the video, good luck on your fishing 😊
Thank you very much indeed, Andrew.

What a beautiful boat!!! It has got everything. You must be a lucky man!
Hi Martin
Thank you very much for your kind comment.
Much appreciated, sir.😊
I've just found your channel and it's brilliant. It brings back extremely fond memories of my holidays in roseharty . I had family up there and had family friends with a trawler, yes it's slightly different but our family friend also went into lobster fishing when he retired from trawling. Absolutely love it please keep it up. You have a new subscriber. Many thanks Graham
Hello Graham.
Thank you very much indeed for this wonderful comment.
We love to hear stories on how our channel is involved in people's lives, especially when it brings back those fond memories. 😍😁👌
We used trawl as well, but with things getting ridiculous from the government, we decided to down size to something more manageable for one man.😁👌
I'm so glad you have joined our ever growing family, and we do hope that we can keep those fond memories coming coming back, with our vlogs.😁👌
Enjoy the rest of your week.
All the very best, Baz.😊
Your boat is my kind of boat for fishing or pots it's a real smart setup.
Thank you, James
I really appreciate that.
It really is a breeze to work, plus very stable for single keel.😁👌
Cracking relaxing video pal,I could sit watch you fishing all day! Surprising the size of those lobsters.
Hi Gary.
Thank you so much for this wonderful comment.
We are glad you enjoyed this vlog.
Yeah, the lobsters aren't the biggest, I certainly put it down to bad management and years of overfishing, but no one seems to care, but the select few.😞🙈
All the best 😊
New subscriber here Barry ,came across your channel by accident brilliant video and those Mackies were massive.
Time to catch up with your other videos.
Stay safe Gary.

Bravo pour cette vidéo, je suis breton et pêcheur de temps en temps, J'ai beaucoup apprécié que vous remettiez à l'eau tous les crustacés qui ne font pas la taille
Cher Samy, merci pour vos aimables paroles. Nous pêchons pour demain, pas seulement pour aujourd’hui (j’espère que cela se traduit bien en français?)
Thank you for answering me , your translation into French is very good . I am currently watching your videos from the Caucasus to Central Asia with pleasure ,i go back and forth between Armenia and Brittany ( my wife being Armenian and still working )
I remember going out of Teignmouth years ago …eating mackerel within a hour of catching it is unreal..
Hi
It can still be like that today if the season is right.
Happy memories, got to love them.😁👌
All the best.😁
What a beautiful morn is right Baz, I miss having that scenery as an office. Great bit of mackerel fishing. Are you salting them down ?? 100% behind you on the regs man, I once saw a sticker DO NOT STEAL, the government doesn't like competition!!! Never a truer word said. Cheers
Hi Jack.
Yeah, you can't beat it when the morning is like that, in all accounts.
Nice weather, great fishing...just the perfect day really.😍😁👌
There are a lot of fisherman/ woman behind me mate, something needs done and soon, as these buggers are running wild with there rules and regs with zero sense behind it all.🤷♂️
Thank you for your kind comment.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend
All the best 😊
@@onemanandhisboat cheers Baz, you to mate. 👍
I like the new style channel Barry. I haven't watched for a while.
As a country boy it's good to see Dunbar from the sea.
Also good to see an ex Warrander Crescent man , like my self doing well
Hello Willie.
It's lovely to hear from a warrender Crescent warrior 😍😁👌🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you so much for your kind comment, I'm so glad you enjoyed this vlog.
This wonderful vlog is all down to the skills of our lovely Jeff Carter, who is certainly a master of his craft, so I certainly wouldn't dream of taking any of his credit.😁👌
We hope you will tune in on Wednesday for a very amusing
" short" vlog.
Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend.
All the very best. 😊
Great stint of M bashing Barry. Loved the photography. The early sunrise shots were beautiful.
Take care M8, cheers, John.
Hi John
Thank you so very much indeed bud.
Beautiful morning it was, so glad the mackerel were running well.😍😁👌

Welcome aboard!😁
We do hope you enjoyed the vlog and will consider becoming a subscriber, if you want to see more fishing content.
All the best.😊
I do love that size mackerellwìth a bit of olive oil s ome salt on the grill
Oooooh, stop Mark you're making me hungry 🤣🤣🤣😁👌
Mackerel bashing...love the phrase. Back up in Rhode Island we used to have massive mackerel runs. Two guys, one rod each, four hundred pounds an hour. Two hours of fishing & you could almost pay for your fuel for the day. Yea...the big guys used to shatter the price. @ five cents a pound. We got our hands on an old walk-in cooker & converted it into a smoke house. No more nickel a pound anymore mackerel for us...lol. Love the vid. Thanx for posting Bud.
Wow! That's some price per hr 🤣🤣🤣🤣...can I have a job!🤣🤣🤣😍😁👌
Yeah, I'm actually thinking down that route myself.
Too much we are in the buyers pockets, because they are established...would love to sell direct from the boat, where our customers would get fresh quality everytime 😍😁👌
Thank you so much for your wonderful comment.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend bud.
All the best 😊
@@onemanandhisboat Heck you need to remember this was back in the day. Late 70's. Most of what we were selling was bootlegged to restaurants & hotels. COD bud. And I'm not talking about the fish. lmao. Now a days you can get away with a little bit of "shack" (cash sales). But not much. Today with the licenses & health inspections it would be almost imposable for the little guy to score three of four times a month without breaking one law or another.
I'm so glad that we are not the only ones who have to deal with all these government groups and their
" laws"🙈🙄🙄🙄
It's how the world is run these days, control!🫣😔
If I ever win the lottery, I'm off to buy my own island, where I can make my own rules and regs, 😁👌🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It will be a bit hard, though, as I don't play the lottery 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Beautiful country ❤️ Spent many a holiday in Scotland,
Thank you for your kind comment.
It's really is, a beautiful place to live.
All the best.😊
@onemanandhisboat I have been lucky enough to see a lot of Scotland, beautiful country.Its a shame more people don't visit. We were in Kirkwall not so long ago. What an amazing place. Anyway, all the best to you, and please keep posting ,
First time I have watched enjoyed watching looks forward to seeing some more
Hi Christopher.
Welcome to the OMAHB family.
We are so chuffed to have you aboard.
We are looking forward to making many more vlogs.
Thank you so much commenting😁👌
I caught a very big mackerel handlining of weymouth when I was a kid. Even the boat owner was impressed and he made sure I got my fish. I had two strings with three fish on each, where as other people had five on theirs. That's how big it was and I will never forget that day.
Hi Clive.

what a beautiful morning !
Hi Paul.
It certainly was that.😍😁👌
Not many days like those.
Thank you for your comment.
Enjoy the rest of your day.😉👍
1975 , When I was 9 yrs old my dad took us fishing , out of Lyme Regis, on a 2hr mackerel charter boat trip we were fishing with hand lines .
I never forgot the magic of that bump bump bump when I caught my first Mackerel.
It was a Tuna in my mind .
A gift from the sea.
I always tell my kids, fishing is like Christmas,
You never know what you will get.
Hi Shaun.
Yes, there's nothing quite like that 1 St hit from the mackerel.
I really love this time of year, mostly because they are tuna sized.😉👍🤣🤣🤣🤣 don't worry, you're nothing the only one, to think that😉👍🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment and sharing your fond memories of your experiences.
We just love that part.😁👌
Enjoy the rest of your week.
All the best 😊
Love the boat, grand camera work👍🏻
Hi Alan.

Barry i will say what you can not on you tube This goverment dose not no any think about sea fishing they could not give a ==== about fishermen like you ,You work so hard for the pennys you get paul liverpool
Hi Paul.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this accurate comment.
The government has never cared about the working man throughout history.
They got rid of the ship builders, the coal miners, and the steel workers. Fishermen are just next on their hit list, unfortunately 😞😞😞
We hope you enjoyed the vlog all the same.
All the very best, mate.😁
Hi Barry. I just binge watch everything you posted. Took 3 days lol. Can i make a suggestion. When out at sea it would be nice to listen to you talking and just to hear the sounds of the sea and all the other sounds on the boat. Its way better than that music playing... Don't know if other ppl have the same views ? Just a thought. I have subscribed and keep the videos coming. Absolutely brilliant watch 👍
Hi Graham.
Thank you so much for this fine effort on binge watching our vlogs!....not surprised it took you 3 days to view them all🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes, others have commented on this as well.
And we love to hear feedback from our followers like this because that's how our channel grows.😍😁👌
We are so glad that you love our channel, and we shall do our best to do the best by our followers in up a coming vlogs.
All the very best.😊
@elmerfud44 - this is Jeff Carter (OMAHB Cameraman / Editor / Producer). First of all thank you for subscribing to the channel and taking the time to binge watch the videos. On your suggestion, as Barry says we do take all views into consideration. Sometimes we need the music to cover up the howling wind, the blank spaces in between chats and to put underneath the drone footage. However the latest few vlogs I have edited I have left some of the sequences without music as the ambient noise from the sea-birds etc has been good (plus Barry has been very chatty - more than usual). So please bear with us, we will have some sequences with music and others without. Thanks again for your support :)
@@MacLeanComms..Thank you for taking the time to answer . Not many vlogs even look at the comments. I suppose when you all get into the thousands it becomes more difficult. Thanks again for your explanation my friend. Its very professional 👌
As a diver ive seen many lines of potts and of course don't touch. Crabs easier for us to catch, you see a depression in the sea bed and head for it. lobsters seem to be rarer now. Scallops my favourite. My first time on your channel ,, looking forward to seeing more.
Hi Dean

Thank you very much indeed 😊
Cygnus 21 lovely build I have worked on bigger versions always decked in and a bit rolley poley always with a wheel house what speed does yours do seems to clip along well. Great video's
Hi there, Clevelander.
Thank you very much indeed for your kind comment.
I've worked on a GM33, 2 infact.
And we used to own a GM32 before the idea of the Lynsey B came about.
Great sea boats, but like you say, very rolley Poley! Can't beat the Cygnus roll🤣🤣🤣🤣
She does 5.5knots at 1700 rpm.
Obviously, she can do more, but being a displacement Hull, she will always be limited on speed.
But what she lacks in speed, she makes up in sea keeping. She is the BEST boat I've ever had the pleasure to sail/ work on, for her size😁👌
Hope you keep with us, bud.
All the very best.😊
Self employed builder. You don't get paid, if you don't put effort in. Spent years around boats. Worked on them for 10 years. The sea is a tough place. 😊
Hi bud

And you're so right. It's hard graft, week after week, but definitely worth it.😍😁👍

Ultra fresh mackerel is quite delicious, but needs to get into a smoker asap for extended shelf life.
Hi Harry.
Thank you so much for your comment...and it all sounds too delicious 😍😁👌
All the best 😊
Bust ups 🐟🎣
Thank you Bobbie.😊😉👍
Great Both informative & realaxing to view is it essential to go boat fishing for Mackeral to increase your chances ? As I’ve never caught any off Chesil beach in Dorset or Ilfracombe pier North Devon ? and exactly how far out and deep is 14 Fathoms ? Would be great to know that keep making the videos looking forward to the next buddy 👍🏻
Hi Ian.
Thank you very much for your interesting questions.
No, you don't need a boat to increase your chances, especially if you have a long pier.
It really all depends on your area and how the shoals are moving through that area.
Ask a local fishermen, they can give you a better idea of where and when best to fish.
Fathoms is basically half in meters.
So 14 fathom is 28 meters.
It's the way fishermen have always measured.
For us, 14 Fathoms is about 1.5 to 2 miles out, depending if we are east or west of the harbour.
I hope these are the answers you're looking for.
All the best.😁
Early mornings worth getting up for that sunrise beautiful and great filming by Jeff, seeing Lynsey B from the drone was great and the pots float away underwater film jelly fish lobsters brilliant. LWas brilliant you caught all those mackarelsand I loved seeing the poos, not sure I want to eat one now 😂I was worried you'd lost that fleet, realy hard work no wonder your arms sore hope it gets better soon, I love how you keep us informed and show us your catch even the wee codling posed for a photo 😁🐠
Hi Anne.
I'm so sorry for the late reply.
As you can imagine, I'm always super busy.
Thank you as always for your terrific support.
We always love to read your comments. I'm so glad you loved this vlog. It certainly took a good bit of creating by our wonderful Jeff 😊
Don't worry about eating those
" edible crabs" they will still taste delicious 😋 😁👌🤣🤣🤣🤣

Love the area up there ! Do you still get motorhomes in the car park above the harbour ?
Hi Jim
Thank you for your comment. Much appreciated, mate.
Motorhomes are everywhere at the harbour just now.
We can't even get parked to get to work in the mornings.🤣🤣🤣
I wish ELC ( East Lothian Council) would be more accommodating for motor homes. After all, they do bring tourism to the area.🤷♂️😁👌
And maybe the lads and I could get to work in the mornings🤣🤣🤣🤣
Enjoy the rest of your evening bud.
All the best.😊
Jusy joined yer vlogs, how the hell do you make ends meet. It looks very frustrating having to put the smaller ones back, but I can see why, food for the future. All the same wouldn't mind having a go myself, those Mackerel looked tasty.
Hi Garry.
It's a struggle at times to make ends meet.
But every fisherman and their families go through this year in, year out.
Oh you're right shout the mackerel. 😍😁👌
We hope you enjoy the channel.

Hi Barry, great channel 👍. What did you use for your scupper covers, they look good in the video. I've got a Cygnus 26 that I want to put covers on .

They are just PVC plastic, the stuff that they use in industrial freezers for curtains. 😁👌
I hope all goes well.

Can't believe your using Makeral as pot bait. Best tasting fish in the sea.😂
Hi Dave,
thank you for your comment.
Unfortunately it's the only fish we can fish for in bulk in our local area🙄🙈
All the best 😊
Then it has to be Mackeral. Love your trips.
I've been getting loads full of tape worm n eggs
Hi Gary.
Ooooo, that's not a good sign that! With the tape worm.🫣😬😬😬
But the eggs are definitely the way forward.
Happy fishing 🎣🐟😁👌
I fecking sick of this tyranny too. Time to do something!
Hi bud.
Not a truer word spoken!
It's an absolute disgrace the way Fisher folk are being treated like common criminals, all to keep those government jockeys in a job....makes me sick😡😡😡😡
Thank you for you're comment bud.
All the best.😊
I used to catch mackerel years ago , bought some of a fishing boat what a disappointment, fresh must be the only way to eat them
Thank you for your comment.
You are so correct, right of the boat and onto your plate is the only way to eat mackerel.. because it's an oilly fish like herring, and length of time, or any type of heat of day, and it starts breaking down rather rapidly.
I hope your next mackerel tasting will be a better experience 😁👌
All the best.
Baz.😉👍
I know I asked before did you catch the people messing with your pots ?.
So did u lose all ur pots when the line was cut, could a boat propeller have cut it.?🌈😲 great channel.
Hi Sea wench.
Thank you for your comment.
No, I didn't lose my pots, as we have 2 ends on our fleets/ strings.
It was just a matter of going to the other end and hauling from there.
If it was in a prop, the rope itself would be all twisted before and after the cut.😁👌
I hope that answers your question.
All the best.😊
I really like the under water views
Thank you, David.
Their is something special about them😍😁👌
All the best.
Baz.😉👍
did you loose ya pots after the rope cutting
Hi Peter.
No, I didn't lose my pots, we have 2 ends on our fleets/ strings.
It's just a matter of going to the other end and hauling from there, then sort it out in the right direction when you get to the end of that fleet.😁👌
Thank you so much for your comment 😊
Enjoy your weekend

Not sure I have ever seen flat water in any production anywhere around UK/British Isles.
This was the 1 and only day that ever happened 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😁👌
Fine boat what kind is it and who makes it 👍
Hi James.
She is a Cygnus GM21.
Cygnus marine boats, made the Hull, I fitted her out myself, check out our back catalogue to see her build.😁👌
@@onemanandhisboat I bet she could handle heavy rain and not sink a boat like that would be very nice in the north Atlantic off of Cape cod
She is cracking sea boat for her size, James. Best I've ever worked.
No fear in most weather's.🌬🌊😁👌
@@onemanandhisboat wish I had one before my health got bad.
That is a real shame about your health, bud. Our hearts go out to you.
At least you can get to see the Lynsey B go through her paces every week.
I know it's no consolation to experiencing something magnificent like going to sea yourself, but hopefully, it will give you some joy.😉👍
All the very best.😉👍
Hi I seen your video about making scupper covers from stainless but I see you have changed your mind with them. Was there a reason for it? Ave just bought a boat with scuppers and was looking for ideas for covers.
Hi Craig.
Thank you very much for your comment and question.
It was more to do with the dreaded MCA route.
The basics answer to your question are the scupper covers I have now, will let more bulk water out ( not that a 21ft boat will be out in conditions to get bulk water🙄🙄🙄🙄)
Where as the stainless cover would only let out inches of water out per scupper, if that makes sense?
So, as nice looking, and probably better for keeping water out a small vessel, in the MCA's eyes, they are no good.....but! That was just my vessel, I'm sure you know how the MCA work by now, with the inshore sector ( they DON'T!😡😡😡)
I hope your boat will be different. 🤞🙏😁👌
I hope that answers your question, bud.
Any more, just fire away.
All the best.😉👍
@@onemanandhisboat Thanks very much for replying. Yeah that’s makes sense you need to keep yourself right. Ave bought a 27ft boat purely for pleasure so I don’t have to worry about MCA. I think I’ll go with the stainless option because I think it looks better. Thanks again for replying and your help. All the best buddy👍
@dunureman your more than welcome, anytime bud.
Best of luck 😁👌
Hey scotty you should put a hat on, the Sun will get you before Neptune calls...Just saying lotta work for couple of crabs...

Fishing is a lot of work for so little return....but I love it.💪😊👍

Atlantic and Atka mackerel from Alaska are high in inflammation-fighting omega-3s and low in mercury, but not all mackerel get a thumbs-up. King mackerel, from the Western Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico, has a high mercury content. Zumpano suggests limiting Spanish mackerel as well due to mercury concerns.
Thank you so much for your comment and information, Robert.

Lovely day Barry. Tell me have you a problem with your elbow? I notice a firm strapping on it. Take care J

The government need to but out of everything, but we all need to get together to make it happen!
Oh for sure Andy.
I've said it before, I would trust the government to manage a sweetie shop in the middle of a playground.
About time they started they done some good to this country, instead of take,take ,take attitude....but that will never happen, it doesn't matter whose in the hot seat....they all end up the same eventually 😔

Hi Orlos.
Yeah, the Scottish accent can be a bit hard to understand, and that's me being polite and not speaking full jockoniess! ( broad scottish)
Keep watching, just like learning English. You'll soon get it.😁👌
Other than my accent, we do hope you enjoyed the vlog.
Enjoy the rest of your day
All the best. 😊

Thank you very much indeed for the comment and support by subscribing 😍😁👌
For the UK, at least we hardly have a fishing industry now, all thanks from poor management responsibilities from our government.
They would rather sail sustainable small business under the bridge and increase industrial fishing (ships) and you can tell their plan due to the ridiculous regulations of small business are having to suffer, because of there greed....but as far as my comments go, this is world wide🫣🙈
All the best 😊
