I’m totally in agreement with you. I’m 73 still do it and will carry on till I can’t.Sleeping in the van if necessary The best time of the day first light on a still summers morning just before sunrise . Off on a 4hr trip next Wednesday
It's good to just get out. Spend the night in the car to get some good fishing in. That is truly living life to it's fullest. Much respect to you. It's always a pleasure watching your videos.
I've done all the fancy-assed hotels being flown all over the World for fishing magazines,and while you think they are great they can actually be very souless places. Shower,shave,sleep and get straight out again. I prefer motels quite frankly,called efficiences ,where they have their own mini kitchen...Or of course the car.Just as long as I can lay flat. I wouldn't try sleeping all night sat upright in the driver's seat...
@@TAFishing I understand that with allot of these hotels. They feel empty. Going out on a old logging trail with a vehicle or a nice fishing hole near the beach is nice. Of course clear out the backseat to lay flat. I am the same way. I can't sleep upright. But going out like that. Some really true adventures can be had. It's something magical catching fish and frying it up next to the water like that.
Hi Graham. Really enjoy your videos. Starting sea fishing again after a break of 50yrs! Yes 50yrs. Use to fish with my Dad around Deal, Kent on the pier and beach ,when I was a child and then a teenager. Now I am approach your tender years. Moved away from Deal and the sea aged 18yrs and only returned to near the coast 21months ago when retired to Exeter, Devon. When I started up again, and even now, realised how little i know so really grateful for your informative channel. Only been out 4 times in total since moving here, not caught much, but feel a bit more confident on each trip as I sort something else out that isnt right or improve on something. I love your enthusiasm and absolutely relate to what you speak about and why we want to be out there. Keep making the videos for as long as you can.
Fishing is tough on the beaches for whatever reason. I can only suggest try a bit of fishing into the dark,or try some deeper water from rocks,but if you are of senior years either go with someone or take care. I reckon you might get more fish off rocks .Maybe a drive down Devon to the South Coast.
I lived and travelled in an estate car for 4 years ...I loved it! One of the best times in my life! I travelled the whole of America, Canada and northern Mexico sleeping in a hire car!
Congratulations on the PB Graeme. We have all watched in equal frustration at the poos state of shore fishing again. Seems to get worse every year on the south east coast where I am. So thank you for your perseverance as you have lifted my spirits to get my ass out again and have another go. Never give up. Cheers. Rog
Yep everything is pricey, your fishing is full of knowledge, and so real, love these mate, really enjoy your company, the compostion shots, excellent work.
Love the woodland videos with your son. You make these fishing videos interesting. As a kid fished with my dad, uncles and grandfather. Lost interest in it later. In college and after, went out with friends, but no fun. I did have a buddy and we went out with fly rods. That ended when we both married. I think I've only been out once since then. You make me want to try again. I live in Virginia, USA. There are lots of opportunities.
As you know bull-huss can have quite different markings and colouring from one-another, and that was a very good looking spotted sandy female. Nice catch sir!
hi graham you ok chief , once again another great watch cheers. what a stunning huss well done. makes all them blanks on beach alot easier to take and keeps you still going dosn't it haha. all the best from the northeast grimsby.
Got too agree with the roughing it Graham. I'm only 66 but until contracting covid a year ago i'd been sleeping in the cars for fourty odd years in pursuit of my fishing. As you say the freedom is brilliant.
Love your beach fishing videos! If I lived near a beach, I would be fishing there. Seems a much more free way of fishing than all the day tickets and rules.
You got that part right...that's why I like sea fishing,grab rods,get some bait and just go fishing..Without the constantly changing rules and regs ,bait bans,ban this,dip that,restrict this etc of the freshwater. It does give you a sense of freedom.
@@TAFishing Thank you Graeme. Yeah a vey mixed bag of work here. I hurt my hand a few months ago trapped between two very, very cages of Linen. Still having problems with the stringed tendon in the middle if that makes sense. Ha Ha. I have Consultants in the family but never consult them as their in Australia. Pity they don't Fish. Their missing out with Fishing as much as i'm missing out proper medical help with my hand. Ha Ha. Working through it and hope it improves. Thanks again Graeme, Steve.
Loving the dedication Graham. Couldnt agree more. Do it while you can. Im up at 2/3,in mornings so i can get to beach. Or do overnighters. Im stealing your little army campbed idea for my car. Save my back tight lines.
That as a bit epic!!...in an epic place....now I know the grey ghosts are not your cup of tea a little bit all at sea......but what was swimming about in that brackish water....
Hi good to see you out and about, my hobbies change from deep sky Astro photography, to fishing watching this vid I now have a strong fishing erge so been in shed cleaning old 12ft moonraker among others, old faithful reels and tilly lamp, making rigs etc getting an old bugger ime still a bit old school liking to stick a pie to heat on top of the lamp. luv your new rig ideas, never know till you try always lived and fished locally Hayling, Beachlands, Hill head, solent IOW etc, watching vid I'd like to try this part of the world, Bristol channel always looked a bit murky but must be a good food source. I've done plenty of car sleeping to over the years,so may take a trip.. Haha👍.. Atb Tom...
I'd be interested in fishing in that creek mouth. Freelining some bread on light gear would turn up some mullet which are good eating, excellent bait and good fighters on light gear. Seeing a beach made of nothing but cobble and shingle is always a weird experience for me as an Australian. All of our beaches are sand or rocky headlands, so this is all a bit odd. Nice to see though. Those bull huss are a pretty fish.
Hi Graeme ,great vid as ever ,have just started reading your freshwater baits book , enjoying it immensely but I have a question,when you're gone (many decades from now )will Mike inherit your chair and corduroys?all the best sir
70 wow Graeme, if im like that at your age will be a happy man, love the early morning, to right if you can, you will, agree with you, great content, cheers mate.
Braver man than me spending the night at the beach roughing it. . I'm just a little older than you but like a proper toilet at my age. That's important to me so would find a local b&b or hotel room. Nice rock salmon fishing though!
Brilliant video again I started watching your videos 6 years ago and I fish basic not bothered about what my rod is like it gets the same fish as a £500 rod 😀 😉
I really hope I'm upto half as much as you are when I'm your age. 27 now but feel about 50 most days. I drove down to Summerseat last year to do a days hedge laying. thought I could rough it in the back of my van with the dog (deer hound cross so not small!) but didn't think I'd need a mattress....what a mistake that was. spent the night on a campsite with a little carp lake so fished the afternoon bit of fun but loads of fish had deformed mouths so felt sorry for them clearly hammered.
Yes you need either a blow up mattress or a folding camp bed...the hard van floor would do my back no good at all. I use both a camp bed and a padded self inflating thingy and I'm sorted.
Got to be done..I enjoy it and in summer and autumn I must save a fortune on Bed and Breakfast spots. I'm not paying huge prices for a few hours sleep and a breakfast I don't really need...Car camping I can do what I want,when I want....and there is no checkout time ...
Hi,sir i have been watching your videos for the best of time,i am from south afriica,ya ya that place haha enjoy your fishing videos.looking at you on this video on 70 good sir louwrens Langebaan west coasts Cape
I've never used spider crab on the peel before. Do you know if there's a specific month and stretch of the channel that's best for getting them? or do they change all year round like others in Devon.? ta GP. hope all is well.
No, I am about to sell it..Just not getting used...I have boat vids but either on self drives in Ireland or UK,or charter boat....I miss the solitaire' fishing,but I don't miss all the trailing/launching/recovery/washdown etc.
You got up at 5.30am!?? .... you slept in then? I was up & about outside at 4am! You missed 1 and a half hours of the best bit! 😨 ...😁❤ Great fish by the way! Loads bigger that my best! .... and they're great eating too 😉😉
I am about to try surfcast fishing and want to buy cheap 14 foot rod. does it really matter that much or the cheap one can get me started just as good as more expensive ones?
A good rod blank is always worth getting but I don't know what the latest models are . However I did see some combo beach outfits that were just in at Grant's Tackle Up,in Fleet,Hampshire,I think the package included leads and rigs plus a tripod .It was a 3-piece 12 foot rod,reel,line,the lot. Maybe look him up and see what they were ..it might save you a few pounds. I remember they threw 4/6 ounce I think,which is about average. as to make,I really can't remember.
Give up on the braid Graham . On the channel you want 20lb mono and a weak link for the lead of 12/15lb. Braid is great for spinning or or piers but crap off a shingle beach or reef mark.
Nothing like a brew early in the morning outside. Will you be doing a few nights at Bury Hill Fishery before they close there doors for good later this year.
They're closing their doors for good? That's news to me, my family is moving to dorking this year so it's a shame I won't be able to fish there anymore when i'm there.
@@wookie7816 there is a notice on there web site stating "sorry to announce, basically they are closing, probably end of September, members will go on for a little longer on 3 lakes only but no new memberships will be issued.
If you fancy a real challenge on the Bristol channel try battery point at portishead . But go with a local angler it's a dangerous place for the unwary
At my age I don't need any challenges. I've done the huge swells off Hout Bay in South Africa in a ski boat fishing for Long fin Tuna..that's enough excitement for me..."A man's gotta know his limitations ".....
I keep showing my 60 year old farther these videos as he says he’s told old to fish these sort of marks now he has no excuse good on you your fit as a butchers dog.
The opening of this video is magical. The nature.

Well I inherited the brown corduroys..they came from a charity shop the wife works for...Not sure they would take much more wear though.
Amazing stuff smashed it like a boss
Great watch as usual, fair play still roughing it at your age,
Bossington always holds big huss when the hounds fade out, Had a few sessions with 5+ double figure huss .
Still roughing it at 70… nice one GP !!!
Was out all night on a Tench lake filming ..1 hrs sleep at 7am,then tried Rudd fishing on another lake...Just about to crash out.
Had some great sessions at both Porlock Weir and Bossington, nice steep beach you can set up and get comfy on without having to move every 10 minutes.
