I really enjoy your down to earth laid back style and your honesty showing videos when things don’t go as you’d wish, because that’s true fishing!
Thanks JW , it was a bit frustrating as I usually always start off ‘on the top’ and if that was the case it could of been 10 fish today !
This mark looks like a place i used to go fishing on Holiday each year, not that my wife liked us going to the same place each year! Not that i will say its your grounds, caught loads of bass on the surface there, i always painted my lures to look like wrasse a top bait in that area, not been there for 3 years since i lost my wife to Cancer, will one day. Good video brings back great memories.
Kudos for painting your lures Sir, thanks for your comments too , tight lines
Always enjoy your videos. Very honest and always something to learn. Re tackle, I am not a tackle tart but I like to buy quality, especially in the reel department. Hate the idea of having to replace a reel every few years. I’ve been using Daiwa Certates since 2004. I have three 3000 models. They haven’t missed a beat but admittedly they haven’t been fished hard for the last 10 years.
Hi Jim many thanks
Thanks for the tip on snagged lures Matt, great video as usual cheers mate.👍👍👍🎣🎣🎣
Thanks glen it’s fine as long as your there for the ebb or it’s a long wait.
Love the video, I really like the Alberto knot also for my braid to fluorocarbon, strong, easy and no problem for small top eyes.
Thanks and good tip on the Alberto
Nice upload thanks Matt! Top quality footage! Stay safe & well.
Thanks again always appreciate your comments
That’s clever mate👌
Love the tip about tying the snapped line to a rock and coming back later. Genius! Wish I’d thought of that before losing £30 worth of lures ;)
He he yes ! I’m sure I’ll be doing that again this year too
Really nice the videos!
Congrats for what you doing!
👏👏👏🤝
Thank you! 😃
.... and your lure 👏👏👏
Really enjoyed the vid, thank you again
Thanks Stephen
Nice to see you got your lure back 👍
The incentive not to loose money is strong ! It’s tempting to keep pulling but low tide I’ve always recovered them !
@@SaltwaterAngler I went out for the first time in ages on Friday night - got snagged & lost a lure at high tide after a few casts. Decided to swap rods & put some bait out, same happened after an hour or so, lost the lot, line snapped just above shock leader. Decided to put rod away as no spare shock leader but stayed chatting to the guy I was fishing with. An hour later, tide had gone out & spotted lure in a foot of water with our headlights. Managed to retrieve it without getting wet feet!
Welcome back ! You and the lure.
Another excellent video. Top man 👍🐠🍺
Much appreciated
Great tips many thanks🎣👍
Thanks for commenting Jeff 👍
Great vid mate!
Thanks!
Good video cobber cant beat surface lures hope the Eastbourne angler watches your video (HA HA ). Happy catching from AUSTRALIA Nick
I hope he does
Enjoyed that again. I'm so worried about losing a lure I avoid anything that sinks! I should take more risks! Great tips again... 🙂
Thanks again, more on the way for you 👍
Brilliant video as always thank you great channel 😎
Thanks Rich , appreciate you saying that
@@SaltwaterAngler I'm fairly new to sea fishing your videos have helped me learn a lot so its definitely deserved :)
Cracking videos great to see you wetting those lines again 👍
Cheers Chris. I’m getting in about 3 sessions a week now as it’s peak time ! Thanks for your comment as usual
I was out this weekend Matt at Pittenweem Fife blanked but what a beautiful day was great just to get out
Yep there’s more to fishing than catching fish
Good job. Great video 👍👍
Thanks Nigel
Recently fished for mackerel with a lure. As i put most back i had to swap the treble for a single - they always snag all three points! One point is okay. Three is way too damaging and time consuming!
Preparing to go fishing I tie an fg, but on the water when I have to retie I just go with a blood knot, works for me.
Yea I get that . However once you get good at an fg it’s quite addictive and fast to always tie it
@@SaltwaterAngler actually a started getting good at it a month ago and now perfecting it is a game to me. But still hard to do at night.
Nice legs!! That was a nice watch - thanks. Have you tried the IMA Salt Skimmer, surface lure, and the rattle version if you can get one. Very good action and casts well too.
Cheers Andrew I’m more sure about the ima salt skimmer than the legs though !
Double uni is all I’ve ever used. Picks up a little more weed than a fg.
Awesome video as always
However looking forward to sharpie lure review 👍
It’s ready to go !
We live & learn I alway start with Top water weather & mark dependent then move through water column tight lines 🎣
Great tip!
Love your intro
What's the title of the intro song? Shazam sais it's Matthew lam but couldn't find it on TH-cam or Spotify
Another great video. Interesting and informative. Got Bognor rocks but only show at low tide. Do you ever fish low tide ? Would you change tactics. TIA.
Sometimes early low tide bouncing shads and high tide on the plugs
I believe it too pick up plastik you get your fish 😉
Another good video thanks! What's the rod your using? Snapped my bass rod 2 days ago in my car door ooops. Looking at a new rod tomorrow HTO Lure Game 2.7m... Not sure what gram rod to go for though? Any advice would be much appreciated. Sam
Check out my video on the favorite rod on the channel. I really rate it still!
Great video
Thanks for watching Brett
Hi Matt, the lure that you got snagged, the Komomo 125, the colour you are using is it the "clear crown" or "creamy chart" they look very similar when buying, you seem to have great success with this lure colour.
Hi Graham, creamy chart but an old worn version of I remember. It’s worth remember bass eyesight is considered more focused on outlines, shapes profiles, light and dark . So it’s my guess (and I don’t really know !) that there’s no difference between similar colours where a fast moving bass is concerned ?
Hhigh Salt Water Angler, quick question if I may, I froze the video on my phone expanding picture as much as possible, in an attempt to see if you have swapped out the full blown barbed trebbles for either micro barb or even barbless ???
The rod and reel set up looks beautifully balanced ,might be time to change my gear that I have had for years and years, but I have over the past few years bought some stunning new lures though, probably time to try new rod/reel as well.
All the best,
Cheers,
Les.
The spitting wire that I caught those surface fish on now has two circle hooks I’m just slowly changing over. I lost two fish on them on this session though! However the unhooking was easy. Yes the lure set up is great best one I’ve had
Hi mate love the video we’re are you fishing?
This is some Sussex Bassing from a few marks
How long is your length of leader? Completely new to lure fishing and all your videos have been a great help!!
Mine tend to be about 4ft for this sort of fishing .
Saltwater Angler thank you!
Uni to uni is all I've ever used, it's a very strong knot.
Your production is getting much much better as well, you're looking very professional, great work and may the bass gods be with you.
Yep it’s easier to tie too with an fg knot it’s easier to make a mistake too
@@SaltwaterAngler with Uni to uni I do 5 turns with the fluorocarbon and 10 turns with the braid, it never lets me down.
Thank you ,appreciate that
Great video come fishing to Teignmouth Devon
see you around.Dan mex
Sounds good love that place
Hi mate,
Probably a silly question but does the sea need to be practically flat for lure fishing ? Or can you have success with a lure in any type of surf ? Cheers
You can catch in surf and coloured water definitely. It’s the wave and tide action that the bass take advantage of baitfish. Generally a bit of chop on the water is preferable however locally here flat water can be good. Bass can spot that lure for sure.
@@SaltwaterAngler Hi, seems as though every video I watch (Including other channels from around the country) They all seem to be fishing flat calm conditions on sunny days? Cheers
@ Saltwater angler
Hi my friend, I am a new subscriber to your fantastic channel, and I'm just getting into lure fishing.
I am getting back into sea fishing in general, and I have been going through my sea fishing tackle to see what is good and what needs replacing due to the last time I went was over 10 years ago!
Going through my sea fishing tackle, I came across my NEW never used Abu Garcia telescopic 12ft spinning rod, which says on the side it can cast between 50 and 100g. Would this rod be ok to use for Bass lure fishing, or do you think a 12ft rod is a bit long?
Best wishes, Neil.
Hi thanks for the message- that set up is a big large and lacks some finesse where abouts do you fish? I can give you more specific detail drop me an email at matt@saltwaterangler.uk
@@SaltwaterAngler
Hi Matt, thanks for the reply my friend.
My main areas for sea fishing are Chesel beach and north Devon, and the last time I had great success bass was from Woolacombe beach! I couldn't believe that I was catching them at such a short distance, about two breakers out!
Many thanks, Neil.
what mark were you fishing there your videos have inspired me to get a bass lure setup im 15 and I hace fished for 4 years or so. i live in lewes so most of the marks you reference i know! I have been to hope gap 3 times no fish though any tips would be much appreciated
cheers Zi
Plenty of bits on the channel. Definitely check out marks at spring low tides . (Today incidentally) when I was 15 I went loads of times with my three lures and didn’t catch but work out where and how the bass are moving up and down the gullies and you will see fish
@@SaltwaterAngler thank you for the reply. persistance is key i suppose as with carp fishing on the ouse after a couple of months over lockdow of getting up at 4am everyday and still having very few fish i decided lure fishing would at least be more entertaining even without the fish haha :)
thanks again
Did the same last week some mother fee stole my lure😩go figure!!
Been fishing through turd out of Torbay, weird went to south hams clear as crystal today
Shame on the lost and stolen lure Steve, I do find the water clarity can be unfishable then just a few miles away fishable. Those south Devon rivers can play a big part. Round here though northerlies and even easterlies provide better clarity
Was you going to say at the end when got the lure. Great though as it saved me £30? Jeeze . Also what gram lures are you using? I'm looking at getting a new rod for makeral but want to cast that further distance. Shimano do a 50g / 100g rod . Will 50g spinners be too big for saltwater fishing of the coastline? Thanks
Never used lures that heavy but want that distance in the cast but unsure if they will be too big if over 50g
18g ish for most lures shape and profile can make a difference too. 50g is fine with those 50g rods
@@SaltwaterAngler do you think 50g / 100g rod is overkill? Currently have a 12g to 54g rod and its well flexible. I think its because I'm a carp Fisherman and used to fishing 85g weights . Allwayd thought further out is better 🤔
I used a patchinko surface lure down at hayling a couple of weeks ago very impressive 1st bass on 3rd cast , I'm using braid with mono leader got 2 wind knots very frustrating...any tips most welcome.
Stiffer fluro might help , consider wind direction and adjust style of cast to suit.
Had same problem mate, found J braid was a bit better was tempted just to use mono straight through in them windy conditions using the Patch?
Charlie funny you should say that just bought some mono to fill up spare spool 😁
You’ve convinced me to do the same, think the pros will outweigh the cons!
What make and strength is the braid you are using in this video
Hi Steve cant remember as ive used lots of different ones, ill post a video with my findings and a favourite as i ready the reels for spring.
What 1b braid do you have on your 2500 Shimano Sedona then you’re 20 1b fluorocarbon shock leader goes straight to the braid ? And you then tie that to your spinner ?
18lb braid on to no less than 4ft of fluro using a uni to uni knot or an f.g (if I can be bothered) then a breakaway mini lure clip - perfect !
Saltwater Angler thank you for takeing the time to reply
You could consider upgrading that rod to the Favourite Skyline TZ. A hell of a lot of rod for the money...
John don’t do that to me ! Will check it out .....
@@SaltwaterAngler I've been looking at them as well. Order direct from the US. I am considering the 762 10-35g.
en.favorite-fishing.com/fishing-rods/skyline-tz/
What weight do you use with the weedless soft plastic or do you just use the weight of the lure to cast
Good question - for these sort of marks that are shallow and distance casting isn’t necessary then I use it weightless. It offers a much more natural pattern and can be retrieved slowly it looks great . Occasionally a 1/8 oz on the shank is enough weight
@@SaltwaterAngler thank you I'll give it a try
How late can you fish Hastings pier great video 🎣
It’s a bit of an unknown and depends but sometimes you can fish till midnight if there’s an event on. There are no set rules and you have to just wing it but that’s Hastings for you 😂
Good to see you "catch & release"... Quick question... I have a fishing spot where I can catch 4-5lb wrasse all day, there are seal's in the area & they often come close on the hope of an easy meal & I will always lose a fish or two ....i am aware of lures getting caught in the seal's mouth should he steal a fish so have always used hook & bait....am sure there could be some good bass about....should I risk using a lure.. would appreciate your thought's... A big thank you for the very informative video, thanks.. 👍 👌
Try for bass ! I often fish surrounded by seals. Some Venus they take mackerel off the feathered hooks with real finesse. They won’t be tricked by a lure I shouldn’t think
@@SaltwaterAngler thank you for your thoughts....i am more worried about hooking a fish, the seal then stealing it & getting a lure caught in its mouth....I did try using an 8inch silver eel lure once only to hook into a wrasse that had managed to swallow the whole thing...!!thanks for the advice.
Do you have to have braid or can you use mono all the way through
Hi billy, you can have mono all the way through. I prefer the sensitivity of braid although it’s not without problems - wind knots and runs on rocks.
Thanks for replying 👍
Hier fishing in a runner river with lures what the best way ?
Ask ourselves where do predatory fish expect to find bait fish. Are the points where bass could sit and dart out in to the running water. Where does the lure sit in the water - for example you don’t see many (bait) fish working in to the current
Best 5lures for u?? Great vids
Thanks John. th-cam.com/video/Tj6mPX9hjn4/w-d-xo.html
Zonk in dark colours, j13,spitting wire,patch and the discontinued yo zuri
How do I know if a mark is for low water or high water bass luring ? Cheers
Time spent fishing it over different tides, time of the year and weather! And remember it could fish well at both high and low tide
@@SaltwaterAngler good shout, thanks
Goodness me the lures are very expensive,as a beginner to bass fishing this could work out VERY expensive.Thankyou so much,really good video 🌱🌱🌱💕🎣
Have a look at axia lures or shads for a cheaper but still very effective way of fishing
What sunglasses do you reccomend and colour please
Polarised with an amber lense for inshore shallow water - as for brands i tend to go cheap as I will break or loose one or two a season. For top quality check out Costa, but actually Polaroid make some good ones and bole used to but hard to find in a amber lense
@@SaltwaterAngler thanks so much I went to the river crouch and caught my first lure bass from the shore I'm hooked loving the sport, if you ever come up this way I'd love to learn some tips I have a few bass marks I'm trying
I make my own lures I found too much variation in store bought patterns my catch rate is much higher now.
Nice one keeping it simple
Good man picking up other peoples rubbish. I do the same when fishing. We shouldn't have to though - People that litter are scum!

Welcome Alex pleases to have you onboard Sir. I know many anglers that take bin bags with them just to collect litter. Agreed we shouldn’t have to though
You probably dont care but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times you can watch all of the latest movies on instaflixxer. Been watching with my gf for the last weeks xD
@Lyle Aries yup, have been watching on Instaflixxer for since december myself =)
How long a leader do you use ? 👍
4ft ish from shore can be 10ft from kayak
@@SaltwaterAngler Cheers. Keep up the great work 👍
Veals has shut down now (that's if you ment the Bristol one
Thanks Dan I meant the online one I think that’s going.
The wind makes no difference and won't hold fish anywhere
You are wrong. The wind Direction and strength makes a big difference in many ways. Here a Northerly for example leads to clearer water, as the wind comes off the land sediment and gulley water can clear. Catch rates improve in this scenario. South westerlies give us bigger breakers pushing against the rocks, this often leads to dislodged Lug, Razor and crabs. Wind direction is one of the most important factors to Lure fishing.
@@SaltwaterAngler I'm not wrong, you are. Wind transfers energy not water the water doesn't move, it oscillates. Do you believe a wave moves from far out at sea and ultimately ends up breaking at your feet on the shore?
Why do people spend hundreds on rods and reels iv never understood it my mate has a LRF rod he goes wrassing all the time and he literally spends thousands on gear his rod was £600 its insane
Some people have money to spend on things and do so. Psychologically they may feel better about buying something like that.
we adress this issue in the latest video ! I think there are real diffrences to feel and weight balance that are helped by spending a bit more but there are diminishing returns after about the £60 mark for reels and £80 for rods.
