again a great video full of your wisdom and techniques. I enjoy watching these so very much and helps me keep my goal of getting well enough to once again get out there and hopefully catch my own bass on the lure, Thank you again for the great entertainment Cal.
1st class video again Cal..... The video content and editing is brilliant. Your enthusiasm for fishing shines through and I love how everyone is watching you become an accomplished angler. Tight Lines 🤙
Cheers Cal ... Unbelievable fishing mate you’re so lucky to have such great fishing about you absolutely awesome, thanks so much for sharing ... take care mate 👏👏👏
Cracking session there cal. If you do happen to have a session as busy as that again, would you mind changing lure colours maybe every other fish to see what happens. Would male a great vid and good info for futire reference thanks
Just found ur vid for the first time and Wow, just amazing. I thought bass Just disappeared somewhere else during the winter months. We have a few bass near me in Scotland. " but during the winter months they just disappear. I've got in mind somewhere else to try which has similar ground in ur vid. I will be following ur vids from now on as their top notch. Anyway keep up with the great work and tight lines. 👍
Thanks mate. Yeah over here the bass are always around during winter too. We have good water clarity and there’s always plenty of food around for them. There are lulls when it can be tough work but if you’re lucky you’ll still find them. Thanks for checking out the video 👍🏼
Great vid cal , slightly jealous up at 4 this morning blanked but hey that's fishing ...or wishing as my wife calls it . Agree on the garfish they are a pain in the arse when they turn up !
Thanks Kevin 👍🏼 I've had a few blanks recently too, we all have them! Only had a few bass scattered over a few sessions lately. Hopefully it picks up again soon 🎣
Another great vid and a great start to 2023, so envious of the amount of bass you have there, great to watch and always pick up tips to try up in the north east and Northumberland coast, keep your vids coming so enjoyable to watch. Tight lines🎣👍
No need to apologise for catching all those lovely bass - ever! It is a joy to see someone else being successful on the lures. Another awesome video, thanks for sharing. 🎣 PS - carry superglue for pesky cuts and scratches. 😉
I’m in North Wales Cal and I started lure fishing for bass last year , Imust say that I am hooked and find your videos very informative and down to earth. I had a few last summer but only one on the surface but the way it took it made my year , carry on the good work, thanks Aled
High Cal, another great video mate. Plenty of fish 🐟 on this session, noticed that you had a very ststeady retreave rate, do you think that reel speed makes any diffe🤔rence
Nice work Cal,very jealous that you’re still catching bass at this time of the year, and still have garfish about. I prefer the Breakaway mini clips,no sharp edges, but horses for courses !🐟🎣
Cracking vid cal, just got myself a new rod for this season. Regarding thenlure clip, I always used the HTO split link clips, never let me down, Pretty bomb proof
Honing in on that 'one-fish-a-cast' beacon on a hill Cal! Nice brother! Top drawer content as always. Thanks for the continued sharing of your adventure and congrats on the 6K subscriber milestone mate! - SMITHY 😉🤙🎣🐟
Cal soft plastics are a thing of beauty compared too hard lures you'll initially get a smack it's the bass stunning the prey just keep reeling as you were an bang fish on absolutely love it 🙌 🎣
@@FISHINGWITHCAL I replaced all the treble hooks on my hard lures with inline singles and crushed the barbs and haven't noticed any difference in hook up rate an they are certainly a game changer for unhooking an keeps damage to the bare minimum for releasing
Liked and shared. I agree I hate bloody garfish also. Not long to go here from March- October for me for the bass, so I'm not jealous at all m8. Top video as always.
I know few people notice but your editing is great between cameras, in one shot as you turned around I saw your camera tripod for a split second and got really creeped out for a moment as I thought it was a person in the background watching you 😂😂 One thing I always found fishing evenings and nights were the sounds you hear, water can make some strange noises, once it was like someone loudly very coughed right behind be and gave me the heebie-jeebies ha ha. Thanks for the videos mate and hope you have a great 2023!
Thanks a lot 👍🏼 To be honest, I could probably do a lot more with different cameras but gopros are easy to carry around and do the job. Yeah at night you hear all sorts of funny noises! There are a lot of spots over here where if you're fishing at night with your head torch off, when you turn it on there are rats right next to your feet 😂
@@FISHINGWITHCAL Ha ha I live on Anglesey and have had the rat experience a few times as well. The strangest one that ever happened to be was when I was on a shingle beach and there was an unmistakable sound of a big pebble landing right behind me as if someone had thrown it at me. I have a very powerful head touch and I scanned everywhere behind me 100% I was the only person out for a mile in any direction. That put the hairs up on the back of my neck for a bit lol
Ure wright I am jel on the west coast of Scotland I won't c a bass till may lol think Ile move to Guernsey lol as for the lure clips I've had one in my finger b4 mate it throbs great vid 👍
Cheers. I don't have a link no. The reel is a Shimano Vanford 4000 which you'll find on a few sites including Veals mail order. The rod is a Shimano Aernos 7-35g which I bought locally.
Nearly turned it off mid video,as I was to jealous lol,seriously great fishing and vlogs cal,keep them coming bud,oh you mentioned how easy to get out and how little damage single hooks do,are you eventually going to change all your lures to singles 😉
Thanks mate! Yeah I am planning on changing to singles. I ordered some last week and they arrived the other day, I just haven’t got round to doing them yet. Should be sorted for the next time I go out 👍🏼
Absolutely SMASHING it, mate! Superb viewing, just shows what a great angler you are, Cal, to consistently find and land the fish, great stuff!!! Jealous? Who? Me? 🙃 What pound braid are using, please, Cal?
Great start to the new year Cal. I think most of us draw blood at some point during a session. Do you ever do any guiding sessions . Stay safe and tight lines. Mike.
@fishing with cal Hi mate, cheers for the vid. Your stuff is great to learn from. I’m new to this all and I keep losing lures in snags and rocks, am I better off going with surface lures like Patchinkos until I get a bit better? Are there any good bass lures that work at just under the surface? Cheers in advance mate. Take it easy.
Hi mate. If you’re fishing shallow rough ground then yeah, surface lures are great. Take a look on some website for shallow divers though, many of them can be fished just under the surface. IMA lures like the hound glide, komomo, sasuke etc. Also look at the savage gear gravity sticks. You can fish those weightless and weedless so avoids most of the snags. Evobass lures are also great for that too.
@@FISHINGWITHCAL thanks very much mate, that’s exactly the advice I was after. I’m awful at it so I’m sure I’ll even manage to lose these, but I’ll pick some up anyway!
Hello from France! , at what time of the tide with you to do your fishing? you now the sea level , don't really now how to say it in english!😅 but good job , good fish👍🏼
Great. Thank you for the video. ID like to buy me a new rod. So I saw your Aernos 14-56g.?Can you tell me something about this rod. Is it sensitive enough and reliable? Do you cast well with this rod? Are you satisfied with the rod? IS it worth the money. Thanks, No matter if I GET yr answer.
The Aernos I have is 7-35g. It's a brilliant rod for the money, it has a fast action tip so great for working surface lures and divers. If you're wanting to fish very light soft plastics then you may want something a little more whippy. I love the rod mate, I've been thoroughly impressed with it 👍🏼
Hi mate beauteful video you stil caching seabass over there hier in belguim en Holland the seasons stil the end how much degre the sea wather temperature there please?
Hi mate, yeah we get bass all year round. The water temp is about 10 degrees now. Water temp doesn’t make any difference for bass though. We still lure fish for bass when the water is 5 or 6 degrees.
Boom! Bassfest!
That is the best kind of fishing for me. Thank You
Do not apologise for catching bass.
Haha thanks 👍🏼🎣

Cheers Cal ... Unbelievable fishing mate you’re so lucky to have such great fishing about you absolutely awesome, thanks so much for sharing ... take care mate 👏👏👏
Cheers mate 👍🏼 We are lucky to have the bass stick around all year yeah!

Cracking session there cal. If you do happen to have a session as busy as that again, would you mind changing lure colours maybe every other fish to see what happens. Would male a great vid and good info for futire reference thanks
Yeah I could do that. I only had that colour in that kind of lure that day though. I'm sure they’d have taken a different colour as well that day.
Brilliant Cal, good luck for the rest of 2023 🎣
If my first outing went half as good as yours i would have been happy.what an outing.great fishing and info aswell.well done cal.cheers.
If only it was always like that! haha. Cheers 👍🏼

Nice work Cal,very jealous that you’re still catching bass at this time of the year, and still have garfish about. I prefer the Breakaway mini clips,no sharp edges, but horses for courses !🐟🎣
I’m new to all of this fishing! Just got a boat near Essex, should hop on sometime
Good luck with the boat 👍🏼 I hope to get one one day too!
banger of a session as always Cal - cant wait to get out this weekend myself!
Good luck mate! I may give it a go too.
Cracking vid cal, just got myself a new rod for this season. Regarding thenlure clip, I always used the HTO split link clips, never let me down, Pretty bomb proof
Nice one Cal, please send a few over to Cornwall!
Thanks Henry.
👍great vid cheers.Breakaway lure clips never bitten me back but I prefer Cox and Rawles link clip slightly more narrow profile that works for me 👍🤙🐟🎣
Cheers. Will check them out. 👍🏼
I love these videos a great presenter very natural
Thanks mate, I appreciate it.
Great! Nice to see bass around. Use breakaway clips. They are safe and easy.
Yeah I have loads of breakaway clips but I haven’t use them properly yet. I'll give them a go cheers.
Really enjoying your videos Cal, and this one’s another cracker, great quality with lots of really useful information, cheers, keep them coming!

Great video as always 🎉 right I’m booking a holiday to come visit with my rod and reel lol
Do it! 🎣
Now I am really jealous…….send them up my way PLEASE! Major withdrawal symptoms are kicking in. Great fish Cal. 👍🐟🐟
Cheers mate, I'm sure it'll die off a bit over here soon.
Nice session, not big but always fun.
👍🏼👍🏼
Hi Man! What suit are you using? Looks really cool🙌🙌🙌
Top notch video mate. Lovely tempo, great camera angles, beautiful bass👍
Much appreciated cheers 👍🏼
Cal soft plastics are a thing of beauty compared too hard lures you'll initially get a smack it's the bass stunning the prey just keep reeling as you were an bang fish on absolutely love it 🙌 🎣
Yeah I do like soft plastics, I just hadn’t really used them much lately. I mostly use them at night, they can be killer! Easy to unhook too.
@@FISHINGWITHCAL I replaced all the treble hooks on my hard lures with inline singles and crushed the barbs and haven't noticed any difference in hook up rate an they are certainly a game changer for unhooking an keeps damage to the bare minimum for releasing
Brilliant video mate, everyon eof those bass are excellent! Having never cuagt one im highly jealous!
Give it a go mate. It's a great feeling catching your first bass, it doesn’t matter about the size.

Jealous? Who? Me? 🙃
What pound braid are using, please, Cal?
Cheers mate, I'm certainly no pro though. I'm using 26lb Daiwa J Braid on this reel.

Yeah it happens sometimes. No I don’t do any guiding. There is someone over here who does though.

Great session, what was the water temp. Cal?
I think it's 10 or 11 degrees now 👍🏼
Garfish good eating if you can catch them 50cm + sweeter than mackerel 👍
I've not tried garfish in years and I can’t actually remember what it tastes like. I know some people love it.
Hello from France! , at what time of the tide with you to do your fishing?
you now the sea level , don't really now how to say it in english!😅 but good job , good fish👍🏼
Hi, I fish all states of tide but I really like fishing the ebb, when the tide is going down and over low water. 👍🏼🎣
Good session bud ..But always should use pliers to unhook 👍
True! 👍🏼

What's the best time for bass on lures on Guersey 🐟 ?
You mean which season? Winter for bigger bass and summer for quantity.
Garfish taste awesome.people are turned off by their green bones but they are delicious.
Yeah it's a popular fish to eat. It's also a great turbot bait.
Was getting so jealous toward the end that I nearly stopped watching
😂 Sorry!
