- Sea fishing in Chichester Harbour at Copperas Point on the advice of a local angler. Andy and I were targeting school bass hoping for something a little bigger. We fished two hours down on the ebb and then all the way back in.
Wind was north easterly about 15 miles per hour with sunny intervals. Tried using a spinning rod but a little weedy. We fished this time over mud and shingle gaps in the weed and were successful. Bait used was harbour rag and common lug. Andy also fished a free lined sprat in the tide.
We caught fish all schoolies and not the larger ones that we could see swimming in the shallows hitting small fry.
Hi paul you ok mate. All this dog shite must change your luck soon. Enjoyed the vid as uze. The way the fish gods have been with me the last 4 or 5 weeks i would of been well pleased. I was out yesterday and blanked again . Went behind the football ground near docks were i always catch . Even the crabs wasn't hungry baits coming bk as sent them out. I think the summer specias moving out and the cod and whiting waiting to arrive is the excuse ive got. I cant remember having so many blanks ever. Are part of the humber fishes best mid september to march so i no my run will change. Any all the best mate from grimsby.
Hi Carl shame you didn’t catch and really understand the frustration as you look forward,plan, get bait, pack and travel and all the excitement on the first few casts with the anticipation that goes with it. I am always happy to be out in the sea air away from the walking poo factory 😂😂am at work and next weekend going to Shoreham chasing undulates 🤞🤞🤞cheers from down south and my prayers have been sent to the fish gods on your behalf cheers Paul👍👍🐠🐠
Mackrell head on a 4/0 for those big guns had many silver bars out of there. Tight lines lads good video
Will take your advice and much appreciated. Haven’t been there in a while so maybe next trip will have a crack. Cheers and big tight lines 👍🍻🎣🎣🎣
Great story’s I enjoy your videos
Andrew really appreciate you taking the time to watch and the lovely comment am away on holiday and next episode not this weekend but the following and going to Hayling island 🤞
Another great video Paul . Loved the episode about dog poo and wife’s comments. Mine would have said “ you should have looked where you are going” Nothing wrong with the rods. Pleased to see the number of subscribers now. Keep the videos coming and your tales of woe.
Hi Mike thanks for watching and what can I say about poo….. cannot tell you how peed of I was but all my work colleagues thought it was funny. Nice of you to notice my sub base is growing and means a lot. Another week ahead of me and let’s hope it’s a calm one 😂next trip to Shoreham next Saturday cheers Paul👍👍🐠🐠
Another great video my wife said she likes your videos not for the fishing but for your little story’s of your week.Just to let you know not a lot been caught shoreham way but Saturday a nice 5 1/2 lb cod on east arm also not a lot Brighton way either but we all know that it can change in a moment good luck next week buddy 🎣🎣🎣
Hi Martin good to hear from you and thanks for the fish report and heads up really appreciate it. I haven’t caught a cod for over two years and that is one fish I would keep if sizeable. And yep fishing is contrary and can change on a sixpence🤞🤞🤞glad I have a fan in your wife and make her laugh and a little bit of comedy I think we could all do with in these strange times. No doubt when I get out Saturday will have a few more tales of life’s adventures and challenges of too work shortly best regards and we will have a fish together when you are free. Am going to have another crack at the east arm this Saturday with Andy and maybe Ross if not raining as he dissolves in the wet 😂😂😂take care cheers Paul 🐠🐠👍👍
Good session Paul albeit small fry which is typical of that mark at this time of year. Time to go wash your feet 🤣 🤣
Hi Richard I think time to wash my feet 😂😂😂 and will not fish the harbour till next year. Still good to be out away from the dog 😂😂😂😂cheers Paul
Wow, they have got even smaller. We used to fish there every summer in the 70's and catch the nursery bass up to about 3lb on ragworm. In the 80's we noticed them smaller and the 90's even the more so. I last fished there about 2004 -2006 and there were none over 1.5lbs. It appears they are now only a few ounces. I wonder why this is?
Hi fellow thanks for taking the time to watch my video and comment really appreciated. I have fished now over 40 years and steadily seen the beach fishing size/catch’s get steadily worse. Many reasons no doubt I have now been fishing the last seven weekends and again today both during day and night with fresh bait and today finally caught some fish. All my fish are returned as do most beach fishermen occasionally keeping a couple for the table. Today I watched very large beam trawlers close in going up and down in front of me possibly overfishing who knows. Take care cheers Paul 👍🐠🐠🐠
@@SeaFishingWithPaul Unfortunately, the British government only see our fishing as a money-maker and have never really protected it. They sold it to Europe in 1972 and just when we thought Brexit would end the regime, Boris gave it back for another 5 years, just for the the world's largest trawlers to hoover it clean. Just a shame, if your sea-fishing years fell into this chapter, like mine has. I actually witnessed the downfall first hand. Those fish I used to catch from Cornwall to Yarmouth are just not there anymore. It seems that just undersize fish and flatfish seem to escape the nets. I've been out with the commercials from Newlyn and they have witnessed the same. I don't feel fish like the original monkfish (Squatina Squatina), cod, turbot, brill, etc will come back to those areas they were once known for here in Sussex.
@@ironix1 Sounds like you and I are from the same fishing era and year on year have seen a distressing and depressing decline all about greed and one day there will be very limited fish stocks then what I wonder. Everyone in government seems to blame every one else. Iceland and Norway have plentiful fish stocks but they are managed very differently.
We need no fish zones methinks 👍
@@SeaFishingWithPaul Deffo Paul, before it's too late, which sadly for some species, it is already.
@@ironix1 The human race has a lot to answer for across all areas of nature 👍👍🐠
You crack me up mate
Great vid Paul cannot believe you trod in dog shit again 🤣 hopefully it will bring you some luck on the next session and you'll hook into a whopper mate 🎣
Hi Fellow hope you are recovering from the nasty COVID bug and let’s hope the poo brings me some luck 🍀 my wife thought it was hilarious but as I tried explaining to her was now becoming a little to regular like the ruddy dog 😂😂😂 take care Paul

Hi metal guru thanks for watching and commenting really cheers me up and glad I make people laugh in these odd times. Thank goodness for fishing. Am off to work and then back out on Saturday to Shoreham. Take care Paul 👍👍🐠🐠
paul your going to have to wear your clutchless wellys out in your garden mate bloody dog s...t, better still grab the mother in law and rub her face in it ! on reflection you best not do that . great video paul only fell of my chair 3 times lol. if andy starts taking the p...s mate cut his lines . all the best paul
Hi fellow glad I made you laugh in these strange times and good to be away from the ruddy dog and mother in law 😂😂😂My wife’s mum has lived in my house for the last 14 years and as you can imagine an old person with dementia is quite hard work and thank goodness I have fishing. Cheers for watching and commenting best regards Paul 👍👍🐠🐠
@@SeaFishingWithPaul paul i feel for you mate dementia is a terrible thing and very hard for the people involved . take care chap and keep fishing it helps
Thanks fellow for the support much appreciated and fortunate indeed that I can get out and about fishing keeps my sanity cheers Paul
🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
👍👍😃😃🐠🐠cheers fellow
I've not been sea fishing for years. Really fancy having a go spinning for some mackerel. Any suggestions?
Hi fellow if after mackerel simple is the key. I always cut any feathers or shiny lures in two i.e. fish three hooks instead of six easier to manage if landing fish. There are many variations of mackerel lures on the market. Go for a light spinning rod and reel and if fishing single lures may be a chance for a bass. Fish incoming tide and preferably towards high, keep an eye on fishing reports and now is the time for mackerel good luck 🤞
@@SeaFishingWithPaul Nice one, Thanks for the tips. Hopefully be able to get out there soon.
@@TheSussexOutdoorsman my fingers are crossed for you where is your nearest beach ?
I'm Chichester. So got from bognor right round to the harbor to chose from.
@@TheSussexOutdoorsman spoilt for choice and when we are next that way will message you take care Paul
