Bloody hell the ex Queen is back again! So good to see you again Paul and sorry to hear about your recent tribulations. The family household may change but Andy still reigns supreme on the fish count 🙂 Please keep the videos coming, one of the best channels here, thumbs up matey

[@SeaFishingWithPaul]

Hi Richard likewise good to hear from you and maybe as the weather gets colder later in year we will get the trout session in on me. Yes been a bit bumpy with life and the universe chucking trouble my way. Not out this weekend working but next weekend heading Chichester way with Andy to get beaten again 😂 thanks for the great comments and all the support much appreciated cheers and big up ex navy bods take care Paul 👍🐠🐠🍺

Glad to see your back my friend nice to see you catching again but I think Andy is definitely the fish whisperer
Good to hear that home is getting back to some normality hope we can catch up and have fish and chat take care and stay safe 🎣👍😎

[@SeaFishingWithPaul]

Hi Paul thanks for the kind words and been a bumpy ride along the road of life and a few fishing trips in between but no fish and loads of weed. However last trip went to plan and one day I will beat Andy 😂 take care from down South cheers Paul 👍🐠🍺🍺

Hi Kris thanks for taking the time to watch and the nice comment really appreciated cheers Paul 👍🐠🐠🍺

[@stephenthomas1598]

Firstly Paul, so pleased your back and my first time to send a message, of all the fishing videos especially beach fishing 🎣 along the English Coast and especially Shoreham Beach & Brighton, You are the Les Dawson, comedy classic angler who spends more time on your excellent presentation, story lines, humour and technical set-up which hampers & hinders your catch percentage of fish compared to Handy Andy, who i can see is the stooge ( but fishes well while you have a million other setting up details for your fishing show ) the mates banter is an integral ingredient which again is stand alone material 👍🏾🎬🎥 this is portrayed beautifully from my many years of sea angling as a young teenager from 1970’s to present day now fishing the NSW & Queensland coastline Australia. Back to Shoreham Beach which where often you use your location fisherman’s Beach & Good Shepherd brings back so many memories whole school holidays fishing the whole area ( Fish’O - Billy Bantock’s videos ) excellent also and sadly no more from this guy but Paul, you have more to offer fishing wise as pure entertainment great laughter and fellow anglers randomly coming up like the guy from ESSEX and his day pass 😂💦 many viewers can relate the comradely, pally informal gatherings of likeminded fellows fishing and plenty of humour which you give bucket loads - I used to dig bait for guys like yourself for pocket money as a kid mainly blow-lug from Shoreham, Lancing & Worthing - Ferring beaches, ( also muddies & peeler crabs )obviously all passed on now but a terrific bunch of gentlemen driving from Kingston, suburbs of London etc who had at least a 2 hour drive fresh bait on a regularly basis was always a problem then ! But the humour & friendship from these fellas unbelievable which you have manage to capture !!!!!!! I call you the Les Dawson of fishing 🎣 obviously because of the many mother in law jokes and observations - Gee your patience 😳😳😳 I couldn’t be So patient !!!!!!! Seriously and the parasitic tick saga ( a bit of Victor Meldrew storyline ) Fabulous Paul, your show has so much to offer, well done 👍🏾 Stephen Thomas ( Fishing & Painting 🖼 )

[@SeaFishingWithPaul]

Hi Stephen great to hear from you and thank you for taking the time with the considerable comments and for making me and my wife chuckle re Les Dawson. Envious of the environment and the beaches that you have available to you over in Australia and I have several friends who emigrated there and have not looked back.
Thank you for recognising the time it takes to plan and construct the shots and also the equipment needed and am sure this does have an impact on the focus needed to fish, bait up, cast etc.
I plan each trip and have a script roughly drafted and take loads of footage and edit to produce something that I would like to watch and more of a video diary for me to look at when older.
My subscriber base is steadily increasing which supports me in the belief that I am doing something to create a positive experience for others out there in the world and just love fishing. It really helps me mentally although last couple of months a bit bumpy.
It is great to reminisce and remember anglers of old and my Uncle long departed who was in effect my dad as I had little involvement with my real parents was instrumental in getting me into fishing. He fished rivers for trout and beaches along the South coast and I have many happy memories of him chewing on his pipe and drinking whiskey and water from a flask. I miss him very very much and would be great to spend another day in his company. I was in the military and now in civvie street have fished all over the world but you cannot beat a southern beach in summer. I promised myself many years ago not to squander time as it passes so quickly and people I grew up with are slowly passing on which is very sobering.it takes massive planning, packing, effort driving etc to get to a beach and then there is the great British weather although this year really really hot and this has affected the type of fish that we are now catching. Gilt head bream are now starting to be caught in areas near to me and stingrays in numbers.
Am not out this weekend mother in law minding as my daughter back from Dubai and my wife and her are away this weekend. So dog walking and beer 🍺
Following weekend will be back out on the beach sharing company with like minded people and having a laugh which is as important as catching take care cheers Paul my email is [e-mail] and be good to have a natter from time to time 👍

[@kerryfoster1]

Good to see you again Paul! I've wanted to fish, been investigating places, visited the Marina on numerous occasions but not fished at all!. Waiting for mackerel to appear ( they haven't } so another boring summer fishing so far. Too many onshore winds and weedy beaches. Very nearly retired now but as soon as the fishing picks up I'll be back!

[@SeaFishingWithPaul]

Hi Kerry you sound similar to me as quite a few expeditions to beach weed on a grand scale and no fish which put me in a negative humour. Must be all the sun making it grow. Look forward to hearing and seeing another of your videos as always find them informative and interesting take care Paul 👍🐠🍺🍺

Great to see a new episode of Fishing with Andy and the p******k ! Very sorry to hear the sad news about Mary's dog. I know you've joked about her but, as you know, the loss of a pet leaves a big hole. Glad you are back on the beach, hope to meet up again soon.

Glad your well Mr and back at the grindstone. Whilst youve been away I found a channel sargo75 which is worth watching. Its all in Italian but the visuals are good learning. He fishes for sea bream with mussels but how he hooks them is unusual but effective.
Once again glad your back and catching. 😁😁😁

Really good to see you back posting videos Paul. Sorry to hear about a rough couple of months, glad you're out fishing and doing well again. What baits were you using for the bream and having success with? I have plenty of squid in the freezer, was thinking of small strips on small hooks.

[@SeaFishingWithPaul]

Hi fellow thanks for those kind words and yep a bit bumpy over last couple of months. Andy and I were using small long strips of squid and they were crashing into them but needed to be quick to grab rod. We also tried frozen lug and they took that as well.

3 hook flapper with No.4 hooks cast about 30 yards out never fails down Selsey, Lifeboat way or just north of the car park are the best spots for the Bream

Great to see you back mate, how has Andy got a BCF shirt on? My go pro is still sitting in the box since 2017. I was taught not to wrap a towel around a fish if you’re putting it back as removes protective slime. Good vid mate
Ps haven’t caught anything on my last 8 trips

[@SeaFishingWithPaul]

Hi Chris and thanks for the kind words really appreciated. Andy used to go to Australia every year for a month fishing with a friend of his out there who he grew up with as a kid. Then covid put paid to travelling out there. Am sure he will go again. Good advice on fish and towels although I do wet the towel but will take the advice as fish welfare paramount. Sorry to hear you have been fishless on the last few trips. Was going this weekend but beaches too hot and too crowded. Am definitely going next weekend as weather changing take care and good to hear from you 👍🐠🐠🍺

[@chrisuk1000]

Yep no worries. I guessed about Andy’s shirt as I live in OZ these days.I also guessed you’d be on to the towel don’t know why I mentioned. I also enjoy, rightly or wrongly, that you share the trials and tribulations of life. I think we all connect with that which means something, at a guess. Hope mother in law is doing ok thought I’d ask?
Keep fishing mate, I can experience catching vicariously as you improve and my skills seem to deteriorate. Tight lines

Anyone got any advice on what went wrong???

[@SeaFishingWithPaul]

Deal pier is very snaggy and sorry to hear only two fish. The last 5 sessions prior to the latest video no fish and fished different tides fresh bait etc. have fished for many years and been to many fishy looking venues telling myself definitely going to catch and then get nothing. I went to Chesil for a day and night session and nothing other than a pout whiting. Travelled to Devon for a week and fished three days nothing. It is a story that many anglers have been part o. Do not beat yourself up it’s fishing and can be ruddy frustrating but equally as rewarding on others. Feel for you and we’ll done to the nipper 👍👍👍🐠🐠

[@INSTRUCARP]

It's something which has always baffled me, that you can fish with someone fishing over the same area, using identical rigs and baits, and yet one angler nearly always catches more than the other. Fish apparently like female human pheromones, I guess I'm not so in touch with my feminine side as I think I am. It is as Rod Hutchinson would have said, you can get everything right in the right place at the right time, the rest is a large spoonful of luck. I'm pretty certain Paul, if I fished with you, it would be me that blanked, or caught less. That's fishing, and it's a bastard at times 🙂

[@SeaFishingWithPaul]

Hi and thanks for the words of support and does make me feel better that it’s not only me getting beaten by another angler on the beach. There is sense in the female pheromone theory as some of the biggest salmon caught have been by ladies.
I have fished with Andy for many years both, freshwater and sea and generally always beats me. My excuse is I do not practice as much as him as he is always fishing every weekend Saturday and Sunday rain or shine and all year. His dad was the same and always beat me when fly fishing. That aside it’s always great the be out in nature having a crack at catching and sharing good company with a beer on way home.to dissect the day. I have beaten him a couple of times but rare to do so.
It is generous of you to say that if against me would probably blank but think we would be well matched. Am not out this weekend as work etc.got in way but am out next weekend to no doubt be beaten again 😂 take care cheers Paul 👍👍🍺🍺🐠
