Lure Fishing | EPIC LRF Session- Mackerel, Coal Fish, Cod and Pollack
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ก.ค. 2019
- With the pollack fishing being so slow, for me, I decided to take an LRF rod out to one of the deep water marks I fish, just to change things up. I was hoping to catch a mackerel or two, on this light tackle, but was blown away by the number and size of the not-so LRF fish, including one at the end that i had no right to catch on the tackle I was using.
I hope you enjoy the vid and please feel free to subscribe.

Some of my best or luckiest fishing gear is really cheap stuff people would turn their nose up at nowadays if you were 10 or over but those starter kits all in one for £10/15 kept me fishing for years and 1 I still use on the river and I gifted another to my friends son as my friend wanted to get him into the sport but couldn't find a rod cheap enough and small enough locally so I passed it on and I saw him catch his first Pollack with it, nothing beats seeing someone catching their first ever fish 🐟.
Excellent buddy.....I wanted to know how much fun it was going to be on holiday with my light gear and this answered my question 👍👍👍👍
Great video, good demo of what can be achieved just scaling things down a little, thoroughly enjoyed that, thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the comment 👍 🎣
hi mate just started watching your videos really enjoy them thanks for taking the time to make them.just started sea fishing after years of freshwater fishing learning lots from your vids thanks again
Thanks for commenting and glad I can help out. Tight lines!
Wow, another fantastic video. With channels like yours it's no wonder TH-cam is fast overtaking terresterial tv. What a monster Mackeral, if you'd been in your kayak I could have seen it taking a chunk out of the side. But, it makes you realise how lucky we are to live within travelling distance of such a fabulous coastline. The best 30 minutes I've spent in a long time.
Great video mate great session well done on the lrf gear 👍🏼
Brilliant session North Sea now that’s why I love it
Top session - size and variety! And Pollock!
Yeah finally!! 👍 🎣
Brilliant fishing man, some serious fish on LRF gear there! It goes without saying, but I thoroughly enjoyed that! 👍🎣
Thanks man, really appreciate that, especially from such an LRF connoisseur like your self! Keep the great videos coming! 👍 🎣 📹
Incredible Nathan . Loved it!!!!!!
Man, you've been working your way through my vids! Thank you!
Top class!!!
Great session , well done 👍🏻, one day I’ll get up north
Great session mate, well done! The bend in that rod was unbelievable at times!
I was suprised the rod held up that well! Will definitely be taking it back out. Cheers for the comment 👍
Great session, got a bit of good advice from your videos. Was up eyemouth and coldingham bay on light gear too the other week and ended up with codling pollock and coalfish aswell on the same lure! Was well chuffed as im quite new to the fishing scene. Keep up the good work. Love the videos.
Good on you for catching the NE Triple in fine style! Glad I can help out 👍Tight Lines
Welldone you what a session lrf fishing,keep the videos coming mate tight lines 🎣🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟👍.
Thanks for your comment and tight lines! 👍 🎣
Great session man, Good to see ya back...
Thanks matey 👍
what a session.... I was up at Eyemouth couple of weeks back and took a tict Rockin Finess 6ft9 0.5g -2.5g, symetre 500 with 4lb braid to the mackerel and coalies… most fun I've had in ages
That's a light set up! Do you reckon it could handle one of those pollack? I'd be interested in give some ultra light tackle a go.
@notformebeaky good going!! It's definitely easier to hook them than land them on light tackle. Thanks fo the comment and tight lines!!
Well done mate.
Cracking video and great session on the light gear 🎣
Cheers!
Great session like all of your's. Thanks!!!!!
Sorry for my english..
Thanks for watching and you comment, your English is fine too
Great session, must try that 😃
light tackle gives justice to those fish..and us old guys just cant swing it like we use to..but that might just be me ...
Love light tackle fishing even small fish put a good bend in the rod, and the exhilaration of hooking into a fish that is almost to big for the setup is fantastic.
Banging! 🙂👍
that was a good days fishing , plenty of worthwhile fish of a decent size especialy the mackerel ..
Great fun with the light gear, take my light set up fishing over my big rod these days 👌🏻
Good to hear and thanks for the comment 👍 🎣
Awesome work buddy 🎣🎣🎣
Cheers matey! 👍 🎣
Great video! Love LRFing. Got the same rod.👍
It's a cracking rod for the money! Pings lures for miles and has a good amount of sensitivity. Hope it lands you a fish or two. Tight lines👍 🎣
Love your vids mate. Great stuff.
Cheers bud, have a sub 👍
@@SlippyLimpets rock on! You seem to have a really good thing going up there. Love it.
Great video bro, need to get myself to the coast very soon.
🎣
Go get it done before the season winds down! Tight lines bud 👍 🎣
As usual, great video. I’ve improved my catch rates massively from watching your videos, trying some of the tackle and watching your technique, so thanks for that. Hope your bass expeditions were fruitful and I look forward to seeing them in the future. Tight lines buddy 👍🏻
It's really good to hear that these videos are of some use to people. Thank you for your comment and tight lines! 👍 🎣
Another good vid mate.
Cheers matey! 👍
Cracking session mate, love fishing when you don't know what species is coming up next!
Yep, the unexpected is what keeps me going back for more. Tight lines!
Nice one
awesome going mate...great video as always, tight lines
Thanks mate!
@@SlippyLimpets credit where credits due mate... I'm 65 now and can't reach those inaccessible marks anymore.... You fish all my favourite marks ie. St. Abbs, fast castle etc.... I fell down the crocs back last year so calling it a day... 😂 😂
Tried me lrf rod at TY Croes, Anglesey caught a small Pollock on it . But that's all. Tried me big Beachy on Aberdersach Beach but very very kelpy, Nath and drew a blank. Tight lines me mate. Scoose.
At least you broke your new rod in Scoose, that's the beauty of lrf, even small fish can put a good bend in the rod. Tight lines mate🎣👍
@@SlippyLimpets Thanks Nathan. Scoose
Amazing..
Great video just goes to show £50 gets you fishing and catching decent fish. Thanks for posting !
Yeah it was super cheap and really good fun. thanks for your comment and tight lines!
Pukka mate that 👌🏻
Nice fish caught man 🎣
Cheers dude! 👍
Would you consider doing a kayak tutorial when you go out next? I have an ocean kayak scupper pro with a garmin sounder and a small handheld gps. I use these for freedive spearfishing pollack on offshore reefs but would like to try out the rod and soft plastics for cod as I rarely see these when I'm underwater. I'm thinking they must be in the kelps so I'm wondering how you choose the ground and do you get snagged much. I don't yet have a drift anchor but I am kitted for static anchoring as that's what I do offshore while I'm underwater. Thanks for the vids.
Cracking session on the light gear there buddy. Keep up the good work with the videos. 👍.if you are craving large pollock take a trip to the isle of skye. Some cracking fishing to be had.
Cheers bud! You are right about Skye, I've been a few times and always get some fish, what gorgeous place too.
Any specific marks John? I liner not to far from Skye, always handled fishing there.
Enjoyed the video. I'm curious about your technique you don't seem to do a lot of retrieving, is it just a case of flicking the lure out and letting it drift ? I only ask as I'm going to Dorset this summer and plan to have a go at LRF.
It's a technique called fishing on the drop. It's really deep so it takes a while for the light lure to sink. I let the lure hit the seabed and if they haven't hit the lure by the time it reaches the seabed, then I do a lift and draw until it's under my feet. And repeat
Great session, I'm the same but opposite, here it's loads of bass and pollack but no cod, I'd be super excited to get a decent codling, maybe this year... 👍
I'd be super excited to catch a decent bass without having to travel! Good luck on hooking that cod👍🤞🎣
@@SlippyLimpets cheers buddy, our best chance is usually spring to early summer.
Hope you have a good year too👍
great session fella
Cheers buddy!!
Some great Mackerel & Pollock. A very picturesque area along with fish. What more could you ask for.
You're right, it was bliss! Thanks for your comment and keep the great videos coming 👍 🎣
Bass !! Try Morecambe end of the blue railings opposite the golf course ...night tide ...hour before hour and half after high ...one a chuck nice size too .digg the bait other side o the gully at low tide ..
Thanks for the info, I'll give that a go 👍
Slippy Limpets and good info on the point below craster think its colornose point on one of your vids ...saves us tracking up to are old stomping ground round cove
Just rewatching this vid,brilliant as always,but I've always wondered do you ever catch and cook
The only time I really keep a fish is if it won't swim back. If it won't go back then I'll definitely cook it up. Thanks again for your comment 👍
🐟 n chips ez, 🍻, good life anywhere. ☮️ HTGDE.
Crackin fish and love that area I use SG seekers mostly but recently got the gravity sticks. Do you let them sink to the deck and slow and steady retrieve or just straight retrieve with a few jigs on the way in?
I always let them sink to the deck, but mix the retrieve up between lift and draw and a steady one
Cheers man
Great video mate. Ive just bought a lrf rod and reel. Gonna try and learn how to do it. looks loads of fun. Where was the location you fished? Looks really good
I was at Eyemouth mate. Lrf is great fun, I need to do more. Hope you have some luck and tight lines!
Great video mate, you have some decent size fish up north. Wish i could find these sizes down south!
Weird, I say the same about the south ☺
@@SlippyLimpets also which editing software/app
do you use?
@@TJP_Tricks currently using Adobe premiere pro
@@SlippyLimpets awesome thank you!
Brilliant video cracking fish on light gear well done.will you be doing any Kayak fishing videos this year fella ?
I've only managed two sessions out this season but the fish didn't show. Hopefully next time I'll get together enough content to make a video. Thanks for your comment! Tight lines
Can anyone answer this Question for me please, Is sea fishing or rock fishing like this video ok to fish all year round? I know river fishing depends on what time of year it is(i think). When it comes to fishing I'm really green, I wanna start up as a nice hobby hopefully. I appreciate any answers, Please take it easy on me. Thank you in advance.
What a cracking session on lrf.. just goes to show that it's not always about the most expensive gear.. are those marks real deep water?
They're deep for the area, the deepest part at this mark is about 13 m. Thanks for your comment 👍
Hi great fishing. Do you fist top of the tide or doesn't it really make much difference.
Tides do make a difference but I've found some marks fish better than others at different stages of the tide, so I tend to choose where I fish based on the what the conditions are at the time I can fish. Hope this helps 👍
Eyup Slippy One. I always learn something from you and that was a really good day out so thanks again. The cave mark sounds amazing. I would fish it just to listen to it the while. Sithi after fella. Dave
Cheers fella. As always, much appreciated. I could make you a looped recording if you like? I'm sure I've got at least 20 minutes of footage without me talking sh*ț in it.
@@SlippyLimpets I could bung me headphones on when fishing acoustically sub-standard areas. If I had any. Off to Wales in a couple of weeks so I'll get me gull fix soon. Sithi!
@@davedawson9851 I thought it was the water sound you liked rather than the gulls!... hope you have a good one in wales, I love fishing down there. Tight lines! 🎣 👍
Only mention that in the comments because of that reel costing a tenner, it's not what you got in your hand it's the terminal tackle that catches the fish.
Love your rock fishing adventures, I tried my hand recently in Scotland and slipped on the rocks, I’m 70 and it didn’t do me much good. You’re lucky to have rocks on your coast I’m from Hunstanton area where the fishing is not too good. I’d love another go on the rocks but they have to be easily accessible. Any ideas where that might be?
Ah I'm sorry to hear that, hope you made a speedy recovery! There's accessible rock fishing most places. Northumberland has some pretty accessible places to fish from and so does the south west of Scotland
i bring my chair..where ever..we just aint that young no more..even here in Florida..✌️
Give you 3.5 to 4lb for the pollack.Great sport on the light gear and fishing lighter definitely gets more action on the marks that get a bit of pressure.
Not sure the camera does this one justice but I'll take it 👍
Anymore videos in the pipeline buddy? If not, our annual boys trip to North Wales is coming up at the end of the month. Lure fishing for Bass. You’re welcome to join us, I’ll even hold the camera 👍🏻😁
Hi Slippy great video. What kind of shoes are you using? thanks
Good question, they're an old pair of Scarpa Zodiac. They've got a stiff midsole so work well on steep descents.
Nice, really enjoyed this video. Subscribing was easy decision. As a side note I've read the the Berkley NanoFil line is very fussy with knot choise. Can I ask what not you used to join your leader?
Thanks for the sub!! I use an FG for all my leaders and usually tie the first two overhands around the Mainline. Found that the NanoFil prefered the first two overhands tied around the leader and the Mainline, else it compromised it's strength
Great stuff, but what your thoughts on handling mackerel?
I'm guess you're asking if we should handle them or not... I've done a bit of research on it and there seems to be contradictory evidence going round. britishseafing.co.uk says it's fine but there are some compelling arguments on WSF saying otherwise. I would have thought IFCA would tell us if it's bad to handle them or not.
Try fishing in skateraw just fishing in front of the power station from the kayak catching some brilliant fish there lately
Thanks for the info, I'll give it a go. 👍
Maybe we see each other
Hi enjoyed your videos. Where is this in relation to Eyemouth harbour?
Travel south from the harbour. Alot of the marks down that way are worth a visit. 👍
mint as always, cheers.
Is this rod discounted ? can't see it on Savage Gear website. Do you know that the replacement equivalent would be ?
I think they replaced mynrod with the LRF CSS class rods, only they've changed the casting weights slightly
I’m from south east Northumberland and Can’t wait to get up to st Abbs , I’m normally a heavy shore fisherman and this lrf/hrs looks addictive 👌
I'm sure you'll love it, It really is addictive, and St Abbs is a mint place. Tight lines!👍 🎣
Alright mate how's it going? Just thought I would pop in and say hi and to let you know Gone Fishing is no more. Unfortunately I was hacked so I created a new channel and named it Earls fishing adventures. So I have subscribed again ha ha and can't wait to see the next one
Alright matey, I wondered where all of that japenese stuff you apparently posted came from! Thanks for letting me know and I like the new name and logo, subbed too 👍 Good luck with your new channel and tight lines!
@@SlippyLimpets Thank you mate
What mark do you fish
I'm not going to give you the exact mark but it's at a place called Eyemouth.
If your casting weight is 2-10g, won’t bigger fish bend the rod? Newbie to lrf and fancy getting a rod to save hassle and change things up. Thanks.
As anglers, we want to have a bend in the rod, that's part of the fun of using light tackle- The bigger the bend in the rod the better the sensation of the fight is. LRF is a great way of fishing, even small fish can put a bend in the rod.
Thanks for replying dude. I meant wouldn’t bigger fish cause the rod to bend and snap/buckle considering the light casting weight but it all makes sense now. Thanks bud
Ah, I get you... a bigger fish could snap your rod but that's where the drag on your reel comes in handy, you can loosen it off so if you do hook a big'n and it lunges,then your reel will release line and save your rod, or/and line, from snapping
Nice nice, cheers for the info much needed. Ur channel is sick 👍
Which rod are you using as I’m thinking of getting my first LRF rod and the Savage Gear CCS range appeals to me.
It's a Savage Gear Light Range Fishing rod, 8ft and casts 2 to 10g. It also had a solid tip. Sadly discontinued but think it's been replaced by the CSS range now
Thanks for the info, I’ve decided I’m going to order the Savage Gear LRF CCS 0.5 - 7.0g as a lot of my fishing will be docks, breakwaters and piers for mini species. 👍🏻
@@Slow_Horse makes sense. I chose the longer/heavier version because of the rocky areas I usually fish👍
Great video mate super session are you bouncing that fish minnow off the bottom?
Yeah mate, I was. Good old lift and draw technique
@@SlippyLimpets nice iam going to Northumberland in a weeks time I hope the fish are feeding lol tite lines mate
@@tanner2stryker2 me too, good luck and tight lines!
Nice video and som nice fish. I have a few question for you.Don't you ever take some fish for food?And Why can't you release the fish by putting them back instead of throwing them back into the sea especially the last pollack?
I've found that the fish always swim back more frequently if they've been released this way, but only head first. if not then I'll take it home with me 👍 glad you liked the video. Tight lines!
What line were you using?ta
I was using 6lb Berkley Nanofil braid. Hope this helps!
I dream of finding Cod tedious, I have caught 3 in ten years (west Wales). Great vids though.
I bet you've caught way more bass than I'll ever get on my coast though.
@@SlippyLimpets Possibly, though I don't seem to connect with more than the occasional fish. I could definitely wish that Coalies were more frequent, I prefer them for the table to Pollack. Really enjoy your videos though! :)
I'll swap you all those fish for the bass we get anyday. I guess we all crave for something different.
Ha, I always say the same to you bass catchers ☺ I guess you're right about the grass always being greener! Tight lines bud!
That last pollack and a couple of the Mackerel looked tasty. Do you keep any for the table?
Oh, just found the answer on another comment. Please don't climb down those cliff faces as you get older. There's more chance of coming a cropper and/or not being able to get back up. It was another of your vids that scared the bejeebers out of me. I'm an old fart and now accept I just can't do what I once could. Besides which, I have lost my head for heights!
Got a few years left in me yet! I know what you mean about age and head for heights, there are some marks that I used to go to that I won't do now. Thanks for your comments 👍🎣
Hey Mr what good reel would You sugesst for mackerel?
Depends on your budget but you can't go wrong with a any Penn reel, they're super tough and good value.
@@SlippyLimpets 150 pounds
@@ojciecchrzestny4659 the reel I'm using at the moment cost around that and I can recommend them- It's a Daiwa BG Magsealed 2500
@@SlippyLimpets Thank You very much Man
nice days fishing mr slippy ha where about is this spot
I'm not going to give the mark away but it's between Eyemouth and St. Abbs
Where are you mate ..it's been ages since we've seen a video..hope you are well 👌🏻
I know mate, been renovating my house so not had much time for fishing let alone editing. Also, I lost my camera so trying to get a new one. Got a couple of bass vids from the summer in the pipe line which will (hopefully) be ready before xmas. How's tricks?
@@SlippyLimpets not bad bro .. thinking about jacking TH-cam in as I don't get the views ... Just stick with my 9k group..not sure ..
Slippy I've fished down there a few times but always struggled with a decent spot to park, any tips? ✌️ Ps, nice Pollock that.
I normally just pull up on the grass on the side of the road, or if you fancy a little bit of a walk the then harbour car park is good too.
@@SlippyLimpets yeah I do the harbour carpark but sometimes it's a bit of a trek. Cheers though. Ps the rumour is you've been in Dunbar catching flatties aha.
@@jaimieboy999try parking on the grass near the footpath. How did you know that was going to be my next video?!
@@SlippyLimpets I'll go scope it out next time 👌 I met a few lads down at the spot that had just recently started out fishing and I told them to watch your vids to get a feel of what to be doing and one of them had heard of you through another guy, was pretty funny tbh haha. ✌️
@@jaimieboy999 thanks for spreading the word, appreciate it!! 👍
Hey man! Could you please explain your retrieve, or point me in the right direction? Thanks!
No worries, I tend to use the lift and draw technique, which means I wait for my lure to hit the bottom, lift the rod tip up and wind down a couple of times, then wait for my lure to hit the bottom again and then repeat. Hope this helps 👍
What rod do.u use lad
I normally use a Slash Lamya Thief 8.6, 4 to 28g but in this video I used a Savage Gear Light Range Fishing, 8ft, 2 to 10g for the first time. Hope this helps 👍
@@SlippyLimpets thanks just looking at getting a new lrf rod trying to see what rods everyone is using
@@johnmcgowan7264not sure you can go too far wrong really, but get one that suits the places you fish. If it's deep water then get a longer rod with a little more casting weight, if shallow then get a lighter short one. Hope this helps
Where abouts do u fish
All over the place but this is in SE Scotland.
Have you found that with Global warming that you catch different species fish from warmer climates. I live in the South of New Zealand and we now catch fish from the North Island.
I have noticed a difference over the past couple of seasons, we can now catch dogfish (small shark species considered a pest) and more bass than in previous years.
I just have to ask.
Are you related to Phil Hardman, who writes for an air gun magazine and does TH-cam videos on hunting
His Channel is "Hunting with Hardman"
You look and sound like him 😉👍
I'm sure you've asked this before mate but it's not me and no relation
@@SlippyLimpets I've only just found your Channel and subscribed, must've been someone else that sees a resemblance 🤔🥰👍👍
All the best .
I have that rod
It's a great rod, not too short like some other LRF rods.👍🏼🎣
Hi slippy was that st abbs
Just south of St. Abbs
@@SlippyLimpets ok cool eyemouth then..was at arbroath yesterday not a thing was baitfishing with crab ,squid,bluey hoping for a cod then switched to a sea krill 30 g spinner for a Pollock but he haw. Need to get back down to St abbs or portpatrick where the Pollock are more productive ..ok cheers just that second bit of u're video the wee cave type gully u're fishing looks awesome what a scene.tight lines bud
Ever thought about cooking your catches?
I do take the odd one home now and again. Mainly if they won't go back.
RESPECT your catch mate, you don't just throw them back like that, treat them properly......................
why don't you eat those fat ones?
There's a few reasons, like keeping the fish fresh whilst at the mark and having to carry the things back out from the mark is a pain
