Mr. Graeme Pullen,
I might not met nor know you in person, me and the wife has started fishing (specially Surf fishing) since we move to Florida. We thank you for this youtube advise about fishing. We watch almost all your episode. You the Man!
Totally Awesome!!!!
Thanks! Glad you like the show!
better to just insert a knife behind the head, if you interrupt the spine and cut downward, both blood flow and all vital functions through the spine get completely interrupted.. much more humane than almost any method, instant, and bleeds the fish as well.. best way of preserving meat.. get that fish on ice and you will be happy...
They have Spanish King 👑 mackerel of the florida Coast that are 7 times bigger than our UK 🇬🇧 mackerel, guy called Yak " fishes on TH-cam for them over you're way. Great show aswell as this one 1⃣
Yak Motley 👍
I've been fishing for mackerel for 3 years and this is what I use (brilliant advise)
where can I buy these hook feathers ?
Get them online mate ✌
@@raripaintt7298 online or a fishing shop
@@raripaintt7298 any fishing shop😊
Yo that tip on unhooking fish was awesome thank you
A true master angler. Incredible knowledge and understanding of all things fishing.
How can u fish .comfortably with all those rods in your way lol...there's a rod in every rod holder lol geez
This video couldn't have come at a better time, I'm heading out on a charter boat in a couple of weeks to jig for mackerel for the first time, your advice and tips will really help me to not look like a complete beginner lol, thanks again Thumbs up great vids.
Awesome advise, respect from Southern California.
Them first few Joey's you reeled in would have made a great live bait for the bass! It works well for us here in wales and always has. Great videos with a no nonsense approach Graeme and Mike always keep them coming. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Brilliant video thank you! Saved me a lot of time trying to figure out what to do!
Growing up back in Rhode Island it was possible for two guys on a small boat to land 400 pounds an hour late March early April. I've seen the schools 20 feet thick under the boat. But here in Virginia... they're so few and far in between it's not even worth looking for them. One of the best baits out there and fine table fare fresh, smoked or canned. Thanks for the vid. You took me back for a little while.
One year I used your tips and caught 234 mackrel and sold them and made a bit of money thanks I'm going to keep using your tips
I love mackerel fishing. Got hooked fishing for them off Sandown Pier in the Isle of Wight several years ago when I first started fishing catching 5 at a time on multi hook feathers. Super fast and furious fun.
Macks are a great gamefish in their own right.They hang around the West End of the Cape Cod Canal most summers until late fall and are prime bait for large striped bass. When the bass are sated,and fishing for them gets tough,macks will take a streamer on a fly rod or a slender spoon like lure on fixed spool.They fight harder than most inland trout. The late great Frank Woolner wrote about this angling,freshwater tackle in saltwater is a delight!
“All their birthdays have come at once” lol
Here in Japan we call it Saba
I was on a trip last year, and we were in a huge school of mackerel. They're fun to catch, but not the best eating. We primarily use mackerel as bait for bluefish and stripers.
They do make a good livebait for many predators.
Pirks make a good weight for extra attraction and its an extra hook.
I use a 30 gr Dexter wedge and caught a bonus 3 1/2 pound Pollock on the Dexter last year
what you were saying about handling the fish with a cloth you should handle witing with a wet cloth or you can scold them thats how many witing are found laying on the shore after releasing them.Atb.
Does it really matter if you're taking them back?
I have to agree, mackerel is one of my favorite fish!!!! Pickled, stewed, salted and pan fried, water cooked, steamed, any way way you dish it, I'll eat it!!!
Great tips, very entertaining you loon, was you related to Bruce Forsyth? I’ve just got back into fishing after an 8yr break. You and mike have been a breath of fresh air, hrs of entertainment, name says it all ‘Totally Awesome’. 👍🏻
Great information 👍😊 can't wait to try a go at it.
Thanks for safety advice , 4/0 through index finger no joke .
We actually do the exact same thing here on the west coast of the United States. Here in southern California we have such an abundance of Pacific chub mackerel that we can catch them off of the pier day and night from spring to fall. In the winter I think they head south to warmer waters. Though don't quote that. I have heard conflicting information on that subject without any confirmation either way.
I should have said that we also use much lighter gear here.
Brilliant tips. Thanks.
Why is Bruce Forsyth doing this video? 😄
Nice to see you....
Alex Hamilton ha ha, never though of that. Now that’s all I’m going to see lol
@@folksurvival to see you
@@whitetroutchannel Nice
Dead at worst of it is not a big part of the first time in 5 years ago
I've just got given ur book from 1970 and it's epic p.s the book is freshwater fishing baits
I ordered that book and when It came I thought it felt a bit heavy and it was a bag of groundbait some how
for anybody in Britain you may want to try south shields pier for mackerel in summer it can be really good as the pier is a mile long
+Tyler Robb Roker pier was good this year, less snaggy too :-)
Great video... but this Canadian girl was wondering just what is a feather that they use in fishing for mackerel? Yeah now I know!! Thanks!!
Quite interesting and very well explained. Thumbs up.
all my skipper knew was how to drive a boat he did not know a thing on fishing he even wanted use to jig our feathers up and down as much as we can. he was so bad at fishing LOL. at least your a good fisherman and knows what he is doing keep up the vids
Amazing video Graham 👍 I am trying to learn so much from you & Mick, Thank you so much for all the video's ☺ (I am wanting to start fishing & hope to get my son interested) you are an insperation to me, please keep up all the great work, any advice on pond fishing?
You are the legend! Thank you for teaching me 🍻
My greatest catch was 336 mackerel and herring (about 300 macks) aboard The Explorer from Sheepshead Bay
Hi Graham,
If possible can you do a video to show us how to tie mackerel feathers to your main line. It's something i just can't find anywhere !!!
mackerel is one of my favorite fish to catch, great eating and great bait. also nice to get a full house on the feathers
where can I buy these hook feathers ?
@@raripaintt7298 tackle shop just ask for feathers or type them in on ebay
@@wetkneehouston6293 thank you I'll look into it, I'm located in Los Angeles I hope they are out here
Very useful info cheer's mate and repect from ireland 💚
Another great video. Thanks. nice bucket of fish there in short time by the look of it. Can mackerel be caught off a pier?
yeah
For me, mackerel are EXTREMELY easy to catch. All I need to do is chum the water with mackerel carcasses (the guts, heads, and spines), put a little piece of a mackerel fillet on a size 1 J-hook, drop it in the water, and my dad and I will be catching them like nobody's business! However, it might work differently for other people.
I know right!! I fish in long beach harbor and I cast lures most of the time, or a bait holder hook with a slice of mackerel, or even some sabiki. I throw rapala husky jerk, rapala x-rap and yo-zuri. or a small 1oz freestyle jig that i yo-yo.
Like that...."use what you want for bait or eat lets not be greedy"....had 6 lines out on the go and bucket of mackerel. They are commercial fished to extinction anyway. I could fish all day and get blanks or handful. I tend stop after 5 max anyway in one day.. harder each year
Ireland haven't had a decent season in two or three years it's supposed to be decent this season though
Awsome vid, as usual! Big fan! 👍 Since i don't have a boat, do you, do you guys have any good tips for me who's fishing from land for makril?
Total Awesome Fishing, Hell makes sense to me.
I’ve had one of the biggest trouble hooks they make hooked in the inside of my thumb
In Australia we use them as live baits..
Never thought of polishing /scraping the lead as an extra attraction! Thank you.
Excellent video.
Very helpful video thx!!!!🐟
Nice one enjoyed it
i use green black and sparckle there great catch me tons
Hey grahame go down to chisel beach I and my dad had 100 Mackrell go down fish from 2 hours before sunset then fish all the way to dark silver feathers of beach 3/4 fish every cast
Great video 📹 thanks 👍 🎣 🌊 ⚓
Brilliant informative video. Thank you
Here I KSA we usually catch trevally and a different species of mackerel and they only go for small sized sabiki feathers. I was wondering if u could make a video on how to make some
Awesome video, thanks for the tips!
Quality video
Thanks for the tips gonna go out and catch me a macrel
Really good! Thank you for the amazing tipa
I love fishing
What about catching makeral from a pier? Like here in Portsmouth
Jack Beames you can use spinners or mackerel lures
Holy carp, I've been watching your son's crazy primitive shelter vids forever--now I see you're actually a famous fisherman?! (by the way, true to guy watching TH-cam form, I've never fished nor built a cabin, lol)
Welcome aboard.More films to come on both channels.
Jan. 1974 …...with gurdies, 3lb leads & 24 x plastic tube @ 15" intervals we (4 hands) had 802 stone of max off Lizard & next day Looe pals had 1380 stone (160 stone = one ton!) all 'shaken' not stripped. Beat that! (We WERE hungry pro. fishers though not dizzy danglers..... fishing for the fresh market & getting 40 pence per stone on a good day!!!)
I catch them off peggyscove nova scotia with just a Devil spinner lure.
Yes john amd fish and boats 🇺🇸
Do you use fish finder? And also did you hold the boat in one place or you let the boat to drift? Great video !!! Need some tips in few weeks thinking to go with my rib boat to the sea fishing any tips would be great!?
Thank you so much for formation😍😍😍😍🤗
how can we get a hold of those mak feathers you have?....and what size hooks on there?...or could you make a video showing us the materials to make our own just like the feathers on yours...would seem if you got that from a commercial mak fisher it would be what i would want...thank you love your vids ,you your family and friends do a great job making the vids always entertaining.
That vid is on Paul Adams channel is called coffee mackerel feathers or something
In California, you catch them like crazy off piers
can u catch mackarel with spinners
Mikey Spikey yes you can
Mikey Spikey feathers are cheaper and youve got chance of getting more to be fair mate
One time I caught a 4lb mackerel on a rapala x-rap at killybegs harbour
This a good video to just pass time
Seen it like a million times
Beautiful nature, excellent fishing !!! Like !!!
Thank you so much ,,that video really really helped me ,,do you do one fron the rocks ?
Right on the money to go to sleep on the mon
Many thanks
Best hook for mackerel is black hooks, no feathers on.. try it.. ;)
Totally Awesome Video!!!!!!
Do you think a 12.6 ft bass rod that casts between 1 and 4 ounce would be ok for feathering for mackerel and lure fishing for bass graeme ?
Sounds OK.You definitely don't want anything too heavy.
Good video!! Nice Tips!!
Do you have a video on how to tie the feathers?
Thanks
Thanks for your informative video. Would you care to share your chum for mackerel? Thanks in advance
The cheapest and best tackel to fish mackrel. Just use BLACK hooks. All You need. Make youre own. Take a trash bag over your fish Box. And make a smal Hole in the bag. When You Get a fish. Put them down the Hole. Then You dont Get any blod in the boat if they are kicking Around With the tail.
oh and we usually fish from the shore here in KSA
Your day isn’t over if you get a tangle of fish when using feathers to catch mackerel as any fisherman knows that you always go prepared and take more gear just in case you hit a snag or need to clip off and clip on.
Please make a crayfish trapping video
awesome videos
Best livebaits here in oz
that's so awesome
I love fishing to you
Question can I fish for mackerel from the shore?
Yes but it would work better from a pier
Great video, can this be used for casting of the shore? Same lead and set up? Thanks in advance. Also what kind of line? Thanks and you are making this look really easy!
Feathering for mackerel is about the same from shore as from a boat,except you are more likely to get snagged up and lose all your gear if you use a heavy lead from the rocks.Should be easier from a beach,but keep your fishing weight lighter than normal as most of the Mackerel will be running near the surface.
Thanks so much! Picked up so much from your videos over the years, thanks for making them.
take the barb off the hooks and you can just shake them off the line
Nice to see year to see year
nice
awesome
Nice video
Singing drag amazing
Interesting and informative video. But the weight tip whereby scraping bits of lead and dirt to make the weight shine can be devastating to any animal that absorbs those lead bits. Lead is a grave neurodevelopment inhibitor.
Thank you for the fishing tips
pro makrel fishing tip, see them and throw basicly anything shiny in there and you get makrel :P must be the easiest fish to fish :D
Where do u catch them and what months. I have never fished them and that’s my favorite fish.
Do you kill mackerel when you catch it or let it die by itself
Hi Graham love your videos, I have at the ripe old age of 81 have been persuaded to buy a boat with my Grandson and Son in law. I grew up in Portsea and used to go out with the lobster fishermen, on the way out they used to drag a heavy weight and a string of feathers off the stern, ( no fast boats then, just chuggers) and invariably we would catch mackerel. Now how do you know where to stop on the way to your fishing spot and fish for mackerel for bait.
Should you bait mackerel feathers
