Hi Sea Drifter has gone..and now my old fishing car..what have I done?

- Yes, after selling Hi Sea Drifter, possibly the most famous small fishing boat in the world, GP has finally called time on his old fishing car. A vehicle that has seen many successful fishing trips and even been used for overnight camping in order to cram in the best dawn fishing times. Everything must come to an end, but what exactly has he moved in as a replacement? There's a dial on the dashboard that bothers him...it's saying 160!! Check out the film to see the replacement. Then there is an update on the summer planting, with some great success stories, a broken rod repair..some great footage of the summer field cutting together with Colin the Kite and finally Grant's Tackle Up talking through one of the suspended Catfish rigs that might see you on the road to that extra large specimen Moggie...Sit back and be whisked away to the World of the Totally Awesome Fishing Show.

Really can’t understand why a TV channel has not approached you sir, very amusing and interesting vlogs you put on here. Thanks for all your hard and time consuming work.
I could not agree more down to earth we love T/A FISHING K/R Mr D
Graeme you really are the modern version of Jack Hargreaves. Loads of different subjects and with great humour and knowledge. Please keep them coming.
i loved the Serries man alone i loved the Program where you slept in the Boat you will allways be one of my youtube Herroes even i dont fish
The two happiest days in a man’s life: the day he buys a boat and the day he sells it!!
So they say.
The happiest day is when you buy another boat
Everyone is different
Another brilliant video Graham. You are so funny in everything you do. Already looking forward to your next video. Keep them coming Graham, you legend. 🎣🎣👍😊
You have created hell on earth with those cars instead of sitting and enjoying an apple
Glad to see you got you a new ride Graeme, I'm sure your well deserved and way overdue for it, now, get back to making fishing trips, go across country, whatever, haha! Go get em pard!! 🤘🍻
Graeme. As a long time subscriber to you I can say it's not going to be the same without the boat. But as it was a big job to use it, it's good to know it's got a new home.
As for the car. My parents have always driven a manual, but when they got a newer car a few years ago they got a Toyota hybrid. They wish that they had done it years ago as it's so much better for my parents. You will find yourself having a calmer drive because there's less for you to do.
Have a great time in it, you deserve it. 😀👍
The best you are... I wish you all the best.. Love watching have been for years 🙌🏻👌🏻
Lovely video Graeme , i realy enjoyed that one , car looks great , best wishes .
Love the motor Graeme. Very nice indeed 👌
Beautiful flowers, wow! I love my flowers too, been told a many of times that I have a green thumb too, I guess I do, I can grow just about anything!! Even Kentucky bluegrass! Haha!
Here's a tip for the tip ring. If you pour some baking powder into the gap of the tip ring and then drip some superglue into it, it will set like iron.
It will set fast though! You have to be precise
A hot melt glue stick is the best way.
Love the New car Graeme it’s Totally Awesome, Health to enjoy it mate take care Sir 👍🎣🎣
Excellent video - Thanks!
Fishing, Car show and a bit of pantomime ,This shows got some thing for every one, Legend cheers Graeme .
You are a good car salesman lol love it😊
Really enjoyed watching nice to see you happy with the new car like a kid at Christmas lol then flowers look amazing
The new car s fabulous, Graeme, although all the techno gizmo stuff would freek me out. Your wildflowers are lovely and you seem to have had decent seeds with good germination. I bought a lot of my young veg plants from Aldi and I've had great success with them.
Collect the seeds from your wild flowers for next year and plant a wild flower meadow in your lawn 👍
I already have a sort of meadow in my lawn now,its called weeds...and of course the underground excavators in the shape of moles are back.
@@TAFishing 😂🍰😂😂👍
Graeme - all those buttons and a GPS coming into contact with wet nets and bream slime.
It’s like worlds collide.
Excellent video Graeme, had me and the missus laughing great sense of humour, nice car, fancy all singing and dancing, bet you never use the flappy paddles, don’t forget not to fill up with diesel 😂
Not filling with Diesel is going to be a major problem for me...I also hope to avoid the Formula 1 gear change paddles like the plague,something is sure to go wrong..I wound it up on a straight today and had to back off...I collected my brown trousers on the return journey...
Congratulations on the new car, looks good. I must say I've never tried a Peugeot but heard they are comfortable ride.
Hi Graham, just wanted to say how great I think the channel is, its kept me entertained while having chemotherapy in hospital and having long stays in isolation ward.
🎣 keep doing what you love, all the best liam 😎
Pleased the films help and hopefully all your treatment goes well. There's over 1000 films up on the site,check some of the old ones out,might pass the time.
@@TAFishing thanks Graham 😎
brilliant as always, most down to earth normal fishing content.
I like the comment you are the Modern Jack Hargreaves and I agree like dear old Jack your know your subject and the history on the subject and explain it clearly...
That’s a lovely car Graeme good choice 👍🏻
With the cat fish I’ve done best on just a large lump of luncheon meat free lined or on a running rig with a very light lead, a tip I got from you on one of your old videos actually so thank you for that sir it’s served me well 👍🏻 that approach does mean sitting up all night next to the rods and alarms though 🤣
Lovely new motor well deserved 👍🏻
I'm sure we are due another film!
Hope everything is ok!
Maybe we've been spoiled with 2 films a week for so long.
Can't wait for the next one!
Happy New car Graham enjoy😁
Hi graham you ok pal, R.I.P. ya old motor . Holy moly graham , your new one looks like something off startrek, i wouldn't have a scooby doo how to work all that hahaha. Love the show as always, All the best graham and smith from GRIMSBY.
Don't worry I don't know how it all works yet either as I'm not a car person. I just want to get from a to b with whatever I am carrying . Far too many gizmos and gadgets for me,but I guess a lot of modern cars are going that way now .Won't be long before they come with a Robot Chauffeur...
I feel you're pain mr p 😢 I was the same when I had to say good bye to my car and now I got a new one it doesn't feel the same 😢😢😂😂
Graeme, you might try hot glue to fix on the tip eye. Simply heat the glue stick over a lighter flame and apply to rod. Slide on eye, adjust for alignment...job done. It can also be removed by heating the same way if you want to change it in the future. Super glue especially toughened with powder is permanent and if the eye gets broken in the future the rod will need to be cut to remove it.
Nice Wheels Graeme 👌
I’ve always had estate cars too 😊
Stink bait with three prongs hook to catch channel catfish upriver 😊
Its your work shop on wheels lol. Love all your videos G
Unfortunately the latest replacement is also rapidly turning into a works vehicle. Impossible to keep clean.
Well wear with the new jallopy best of luck and safe travels hope you get more miles on her than the star ship enterprise.
Nice car with all the toys. That red line on the reversing screen is handy, when it gets to the post you've hit it!
I did a test with it in a Supermarket car park seeing how close I was to a large concrete post.I thought I was a foot away but on getting out it was inches. I hope not to trust it now, after 54 years behind the wheel I think I can manage to reverse into a bay without a miniature TV screen...
great mashup
Nice car . Shame about the boat going ,i will miss your boat videos.
Another great one Gray,,,where my momento? a signed photo would be nice
A couple of layers of Sellotape (other brands are available) on either side of that broken lid would solve your problem Graeme. I know because I have a similar broken lid on one of my boxes. :)
With regards to the tubing/hose on your Peugeot estate. If you can find a local shop or business that specialises in building/repairing or selling industrial machinery. They might have some industrial/hydraulic hoses that will fit your car. Get a mechanic to remove the perished tubing and take it to the hydraulic hose shop and see iif they have the correct size to match it.
Since the hose/tubing (whatever you want to call it...) is only used to transport coolant, an industrial grade hydraulic hose will be perfectly fine and probably overkill but it will do the job no problem.
Gosh I remember every tackle shop used to have a box of rod rings like that.
A modern Out of town for anyone old enough enough to remember Jack Hargreaves
Ring around the scrapyards for the hose you need, Surely must be one available
There were plenty of other issues on the chalkboard just waiting to bite me as well as the hose.
Feels like watching the conveyor belt on The Generation Game (for those of us oldies). Now, can I remember everything you took out?
Cuddly Bear ,Toaster,Handbag,Pillow,Sack of Skrettings Pellets,a deep fat fryer...another deep fat Friar , A kettle, bottle of Perfume, Packet of Corn plasters, calculator with no batteries, an electric car (Dinky), and a lawnmower with reverse gear so you can cut your toenails at the same time....oooh...didn't he do well !!!....
Computersied weights on board the tractors to determine how much weight they can hold Mr G 😊
Thanks for the comment,so its actually a weight thing rather than visual...
@@TAFishing yea its all done by the weight also some talk to each other by radio but its also skill to keep the trailer under the combine arm
Hi Graeme! Never tried livebaiting for catfish? I don't know if it is allowed in the waters that you usually fish, but in the case give it a go, here down in Italy some of the monsters were caught in this way. Actually about one month ago a guy caught in the river near my house what it seems to be the new IGFA all tackle record but it was...on a lure 😅! I wish you all the best and good luck with the new car!!
Got the 3008 in auto . Love it never going back to manual . 👍
That's good to hear. I just hope this one lasts as long as the last one. Trouble free travelling is what I want.
I use heat shrink after gluing on new eyes instead of whipping. Various sizes available in mixed box Halfords.
In a trailer Silage, in PVC bales haylage, skirt to leave neat rows no flying out.
Farewell old Peugeot, hello new Peugeot! I dread to think what a bit of carchaeology would unearth in my old banger!
You should have formed a syndicate for the boat but keeped a share for yourself and had the others pay to keep in on a mooring !
Wow Cant believe there wasn’t a bit of fishing tackle in there
That spear blade plant is called Hard rush (Juncus inflexus). I lost a huge chub once when fishing the Warwickshire Avon. The fish buried itself in the stuff on the far bank and pinged off.
It is indeed nightmare stuff,I find it rare to get a fish out once it has buried,and somehow they seem to depart leaving just the hook in the stem,and then its pulling for a break. Needs cutting out of all rivesr I feel, a bit of the old fashioned river management.
Hi Graeme Ive had all sorts of cars in my time fords renaults volvos bmws but my wife insisted I bought a new Dacia I tried every one in the range all of them they drive so well and ended up with a Dacia jogger top of the range 7 seater 3 years 60 thousand warranty loads of room in the back new £18 500 1000 cc what a car Im glad I took my wifes advise still it took me 64 years to see through the bullshit k/r Mr D
I reckon there is plenty of B.S. about what cars can and can't do. I rarely change mine only when the repair bills start adding up too regularly.
A lot of people don’t want to spend the time repairing old things now as they are not experienced with them. I’m sure you could find a hose at a breakers yard
Yes graeme i, in alaska, have two totes full of gear and emergency gear. lol turns to 3 in the winter
I love this car,theres loads on road
The skirt is to reduce the likelihood of it throwing sticks or stones about.
I've got the same car as your old one........... great fuel consumption, think you will see the drop though with a 1.6 petrol. Sensible radio station on the new car too, Planet Rock, Yeah!!
I noticed the drop already and looked up to see the older diesel had a bigger tank . It used to go forever. It would get me from UK to south west Ireland and halfway back.Not sure about the new one though it doesn't seem to hold as much.
Great vid again! Love your new car!! What shop you get those seeds from, going to have to buy some of them for the wife! It's a great time for pike fishing I reckon, especially on lures now it's cooled off!
Wildflower seeds £5 from Tesco,and the Gladioli bulbs I recall were £5 a packet as well. I am deffo in for some next year. No more nurseries !!
@TAFishing lovely, thanks G!
Your flying machines are 6 of a nine ship formation of DH-82 Tiger Moths. They went over my place too.
There is always someone to sell you stuff. I'd like to see a challenge programme where you've got to catch a carp but only have £10 to spend. Use boot sales and your pantry...and your brains (not literally lol).
Triple mower set up on the on the John deere 6R most likely a 230hp or 250hp the rubber skirts are there to stop stones and other debris going flying and it really does go like a golf ball.
thanks for the comment,I wondered why they were there,now makes sense.
I think the plastic skirt or shroud is to keep rocks from flying out from underneath the blades.
First the yacht now the Jaguar!!! Jesus Graeme!!
A jaaag 😂😂 fkn ace
Hi Graeme,
Plenty there i can relate to. Always breaking Rod Tips and Rings.
I have a Peugeot 2008, seats permanently down flat as huge load area. The only negative is that it uses about half a litre of Oil a month. The AA said that's normal for the one i have. Not sure on that one.
Also just a note, a Company called World Of Books has 14 different titles of your Books for sale. Might help your other Subscribers.
Thanks As Always,
Steve in Fife.
Thanks for the book tip ,someone might want some...
@@TAFishing For sure Graeme, and i'm one of them.
Thank You.
Steve.
the fuji glow in the dark and seymo rings
There’ll be rod builders turning in their graves you using super glue 😮😅
I grow wildflowers every year Graeme and they always turn out fantastic 👍🏻
Alittle baking soda and then the drop of super glue will make it hard as a rock and fill the small gap but careful once it's mixed it's instantly hard
Not sure what you are talking about here, I hope its to do with rod rings ?? Baking soda and superglue to make it hard as a rock ???? I haven't filled a small gap for some years and the hard as rock is surely a thing of the past...but for rod rings it might work ....I feel the" instantly hard "is deffo a thing of the past....once past a certain age of course...
@@TAFishing please I did not mean anything other then the rod tip repair. You can use baking soda as super glue a activator. Is what I was trying to say but anyone testing this on something before doing it on some important is a good idea.
Sprinkle liquid superglue with Baking powder to speed up setting it will also expand slightly to fill the gap. It sets faster and gives a really hard finish.
Thanks for that,sounds a good tip .I meant to pick up the gel type superglue but got the watery one which is never easy to use so the baking powder idea might do it.
Lane departure warning is a standard safety feature on modern cars, I'd definitely recommend switching it off on B roads because it will try to put you in the hedge from time to time.
Be careful with wildflower seeds, lots of them contain a sort of giant clover looking thing which will run riot in your flower beds. It has caused no end of headaches for me when clients have sprinkled them in flower beds that I've spent years getting under control
Aah,that's worth knowing because there is one in there that looks like a giant Clover leaf...I am in pots but won't let them run to seed and blow elsewhere. Thanks for the tip. That lane departure warning is a pain in the bait box. Every time I crossed a bit of painted road it would tweak at the steering wheel which is unnerving...I try to switch it off but it must be set as default to be on when you first start up,so you have to make a point of turning it off straight away. I'm sure there are a load of other features I don't want/need but have yet to discover them..
@@TAFishing they seem to spread via rhizomes so you might be OK if they're in pots, be careful not to compost them though
Safety thing with the fan..dpf filter clogged it does it etc
The yellow skirts are to stop the dust.
skirt keeps the cut together and dust down
Chicken gizzards work well for catfish here in the southern US.
put a few turns of thread on the tip then put the tip ring on ,
You should use hot melt glue to put a tip guide on, not super glue or two part epoxy.
Couple of clutches haha.. you sound like trigger and his broom 😅
Graeme is as tight as two coats of paint 😂
Need more stuff in that car.
Come on Graeme….it’s a Fallow deer…….you can tell by the tail …..Time for you to visit Specsavers,
I just sold my Citroen C5 estate diesel (same as the 508) and wish I never did!
Are you ok, Graeme? You have sold the boat and most of your recent videos appear to be from the back catalogue. I hope you're not ill and getting too old to do what you love doing the most, we all want to believe that you will be here fore ver.
Totally incorrect...All the films are brand new some only filmed last week ?. I think you must have been missing a lot of what has been going up. You need to hit the notification bell or you are missing all the films everyone else appears to be watching. Recently I have been putting up 2 a week...can't work any harder..not enough hours in the day...
I’m loving my ‘new’ car I recently bought , 1945 Willys Jeep . Thirsty girl though ..
What happens to all the old vintage vehicles when we (allegedly) go electric only ?? Are they going to be worthless ? or will they be worth more ? Or will they be taxed more by Governments because they don't want to sell petrol/diesel ?
Love the vids could you do any fishing up wales way
Trent auto recovery dismantle vehicles . Perhaps they have second hand hoses.
👍👍👍
I wonder Graham have all manufacturers started to make it difficult to get spares for diesels , I’m no conspiracy theorist we’re is David icke when you need him probably in the bushes with smith , like the new motor 👍
I guess it would make sense,another way of forcing the sale of whatever they want. Cut off spares supplies and what choices are left.
are you going to get another boat i love the boat videos you do
Single leg rings, 50% less whipping, keeps costs down.
Hayliage G...Sialage is green unseeded grass.
That’s like my car lol😊
Great vlog as usual greame. Congratulations for the new car. I am facing a dilemma. I haven an audi a3 and obviously its not big enough for two people to sleep in. I am looking for a car in which to people can sleep in as me and my brother go fishing together. Any ideas.
I liked the big Skoda,Superb or Supreme or something. Its huge inside,but I couldn't track one down. Unless it was 400 miles away.
Bring back the old fibre glass rods, since coming back into fishing and using carbon fibre robs, I have never had so many broken tops section.
I have been happy enough with straight glass for over 50 years,or maybe a composite .
A single leg rod ring is easier to bend and snap I never buy those types of fishing rods. From Justin in West Midlands, England 🏴.
you'll be ok with petrol graeme, just remember it's petrol when you fill up and don't put diesel in it👍😂
The danger comes when I am tires from a fishing trip..Hopefully I don't make a mistake.
Try cotton buds for super glue Graeme. Always carry a couple of condoms as well they hold loads of water ……and you may get lucky. Try a skoda superb brilliant cars loads of room
I was impressed with them when I saw one in Ireland .Trouble is while I like work I really need to stop lugging all the big stuff around.
