- Just how many ways can I catch mackerel? A great fish to catch, cook and eat. It’s summer here in the UK and everyone likes to try and catch a Mackerel or two, whether for some fishing action or just for eating. You can bake them, fry them, or smoke them as there are so many different ways to enjoy them, and in this episode Graeme looks back on how he would normally approach them if he was fishing from the shore. In holiday time there is nothing better than sitting on the rocks or a pier watching a colourful float bob around in the sea, as you wait for it to sink beneath the surface with a bite. And the methods Graeme describes can be used in many countries abroad as he has had success using them for catching a variety of smaller inshore fish. Plus you don't need lots of expensive gear,its a method that anyone with a rod and reel can try. Enjoy!

Love these old-school fishing videos, right back to the TA roots that drew me to your channel way back when. These videos explaining the basics are such a godsend to both new and experienced anglers alike. Thank you, a great little upload designed to educate and inspire!
As fishermen we get too caught up sometimes in what we like / what's worked for us before and often miss the obvious opportunities right beneath our noses. A timely and excellent reminder that the fish haven't got the same idea as us sometimes and a switching up of location, techniques and tackle can make all the difference. Great stuff! 👍 😁🏴
I just ordered a TA Fishing mug but what we really need is a The Legend Graeme Pullen clothing line.
Excellent video - thanks! The slow motion action segments add just that extra bit of drama - well done!
When I was a kid, 60plus years ago, my grandmother used to take me mackerel fishing from the shore in Kent.
She equipped me with a rod + mackerel "feathers" and ordered me to catch the mackerel. .. whilst she scooped up the whitebait with a "bandy net" , that were being washed up in a panic on the beach!
Lovely fond memories ❤ ... except I later learned that the delicious whitebait I ate hadn't been gutted or bugger all! ... my grandmother deep fried them, golden crispy, guts n all, but didn't tell me!! 😨😨
Considered a delicacy.
I love stories like that especially when a woman is getting her son/grandson to catch dinner...it's like how things used to be and sadly we've almost lost that mentality.
I do think that the lack of the abundance of Mackeral we have seen in years gone by is mainly due to the Super deep sea trawlers which can catch 500 tons in a single pelagic trawl, they can target a shole of fish at any depth and so catch pretty much the whole shole in one go. Yes, they have limits to what they can catch but the numbers are ridiculous in my view and although apparently Scientific studies are undertaken to monitor the fish numbers, to ensure they are not overfished, how strictly are the quotas, given to all the countries that fish in our waters adhered to?
This is purely my opinion based on some very basic research, these super trawlers are hoovering the oceans dry of fish and leaving nothing for anyone else.
Thank you, Graeme, for a great video showing that there are still a few Mackeral around if you have the skill to find them. 👍👍🦈
Nice to see you still around and producing Cheers
I couldn't recall how often I've had more fun chasing live bait on light gear than using them for bigger units. It can be addictive.
The see never rests..to keep us on our toes ...some handy advice there in high drifter........mullet!...don't forget the great ghosts with that light gear..I caught some good uns in Falmouth....Did you say rain??wow!!
Just wanted to let you know you probably wont see this but 6 years ago you inspired 9 year old me to fish and I havent stopped ever since I remember watching you catch mackerel off piers and doing interviews with people who owned tackleshops kinda thing and once you went out on a charter boat that was it I nagged every holiday to go on a charter boat until my dad finally let me when I was 12 little did he know we were gonna come back home with more mackerel after I watched your videos then he could have ever imagined ended p trading 100s of mackerel to fishermen for pot bait for crabs this channel genuinely is the reason I developed my fihing passion especially for mackerel thank you
Thanks for taking the time to comment and pleased you finally got out to sea on a charter boat.I remember my own first6 sea trip on a boat out of Looe in Cornwall.
As always a great video GP, thanks so much for the time and effort you put in.
Hello Graham. I just got done watching you and Mike in the Woodlands making that shed and putting up a nice watering sponsored animals which I thought was really awesome now I’m going to get into watching some fishing with you thank you for your wonderful video.God bless
Wow, brings back good old memories when I learned fishing from my uncle over 60 years ago. My job then was to gather up live bait sand crabs, muscles etc. from rocks and beach as you showed in the video. He always said, "Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime."
I heard that bluefin tuna are on a catch and release program in Cornwall and other areas.
Do you have plans to give it a go? That would make a epic video.
Met Graham on West Beach at Selsey a few weeks ago while on holiday he was fishing collected alot off his books when i was younger and watched most off his videos on here which are great. He was a gentleman lovely guy absolute pleasure to meet him in person. If your reading this message did you catch any Smoothounds that night? I had an awfull week fishing for hounds didnt get any but did manage to bag up on lots off sizeable black Bream on east beach two hours before and upto high water that week. Keep making the Videos there brilliant was great meeting you 👍
No Hounds but got Black Bream...nothing else if I recall. I hyear there is now a load of weed trundling up and down the Solent so it might be tough for fishing of any sort.
great videos GP thanks so much for all the tips you give out .👍
that was a nice tutorial takes me back to being a kid again thanks Graham keep up the good work. ps videos like this stops me from being complacent thanks again tight lines
Sometimes its still the basic stuff that catches the fish.
Very enjoyable video. Thanks.
Very useful tips for me to try out on my return to fishing......as soon as my leg mends.
Good luck with the leg.
Cheers Graham love watching and learning never too old to pick up some tips
Many thanks Graham for all your tips, I'm going on holiday this weekend for 2 weeks staying in Millendreath beach resort, I've bought a white namoura Kanji rod for lure fishing etc, can't wait to try it out on the rocks & estuary's 👍😀
I think I was the first one to publicise the old white Kanji...I only wanted one to be different as it was a different colour !!...Turns out it is a good spinning rod,I use mine in boat or beach,or even Pike fishing. Good luck with your holiday.Hope you have some decent weather.
Hope you're having good luck. You may be OK since you're staying there, but last I heard, the owners of Millendreath had banned fishing there, especially for us locals that live nearby. 😢😢 If you can't fish at Millendreath, try Seaton, but at either venue, you'll have to wait until the holidaymakers have left the beach.
Great video, fished that point last week on holiday, bumped into it by chance. Caught some wrasse. Keep them coming
I really like and apricated the break down of the waters.
Great tips Graham i usually have a kachunking bait out for bass, Ray etc a 3 hook flapper and 1 down for smoothhouds or dogs.
Think i will, pack my heavy river feeder and have a try for some tiddler bashing maybe, with a, 3oz feeder will work. Great video as usual mate
Keep it up mate I love your videos got me self a beer and a cigar gonna be a good one!
My hometown! Where I used to fish as a kid!! Go GP!!
Brilliant Graeme a wednesday night fix was not expectig that
I will try that down at TORPOINT ON THE TAMAR once again Thank you
Its coming into the right time of year,August to October,with the Lizard peninsula being a good spot in October.
I’ve never even seen a garfish , they are quite rare up here in Scotland I think .
Great video some times the simple things dose the best I'll be giving this try. And fantastic to see you have past the 300k subs well in 🎣🎣🎣🎣
I would love to have a go at this. It seems do-able with coarse fishing gear. Thanks for the tips👍
Yes,Carp gear will do it easily,and for somewhere like the stone pier at Mylor a regular Avon rod will do the trick. But with the lighter style float obviously.
That was brilliant Graham
Some nice fishing there. Just catching is good. Doesn't matter they are not very big. Have you ever tried fly fishing for Mackerel and Garfish? They would be good sport on a fly rod!
Excellent vid as ever.
To many people think mackerel must be skull draged out on 30lb line if you give them a chance on light gear they fight really well .just think of them as mini tuna and you might have a great day !
Was you on the antiques roadshow?
?
As always a great video 👍
Always interesting
Good work
On big thank you i love the vidéos
For sure it's the very same here in Ireland the mackerel are just getting hammered so please people just take what u need I watched 3 guys in Clare catch over 200 just to b dumped in the grass at the top of the cliff in dunleeky.
I’ve seen it happen so many times at dunlicky. Some people seem to get hypnotised fishing for them when they come in and forget to stop, then don’t know what to do with them so they just dump them in the grass at the car park. It drives me insane Take a few for the plate and a few for bait
I would also add, if you're putting Mackerel back its important to avoid touching them as they have a very delicate skin and if touched they will die soon after, best just to shake them off the hook.
@@lurefishingdublin1530 in certain areas yes I fully agree, but at dunlicky the cliff is over 100ft high so they would die on impact from there. If I’m boat fishing then yes or fishing from sea level I do shake them off the hook
The mackerel have been absolutely mullered by these huge trawlers that just hoover em up where I live in Yorkshire the mackerel run is getting lower and lower by the year 😔
Oughta be a crime!
Do you live around the Humberside area 🤔. As I grow up in Grimsby.
@@andykjohnsonjohnson7622 no further up north between Whitby and Scarborough
Sam i think to im from county durahm and there is not manu about at all this year verry bad year last year was good this year terrible lets hope for better next year im still to catch any been 3 times
Love your content! Been a long time fan even before I subscribed.
Wish u the best GP! All the way from Vancouver bc Canada
Stay safe Vancouver,thanks for watching.
Just need the mackerel to come to Plymouth, I think they're on holiday. 😆👍
I hear its extremely patchy this year,I wonder oif its going to be a September run,which is a shame as folks like to have a chance of a Mackerel or two while on holiday.
@@TAFishing
Knowing my luck I'll just catch Garr fish and no mackerel. 😆👍
Third deepest natural estuary/harbour I think Graham
I sense de ja vu
Hi from Vancouver Island BC always enjoy your content.
Hi there BC,hope the Salmon fishing has been good for you this year.
I used to live in Comox. Caught so many salmon in the puntledge and Campbell rivers. Wonderful memories. Now in Dorset.
That place looks like Lymington maybe I'm wrong I usually camp in the new forest and I've never taken my fishing tackle with me because I had young children now they've grown up I'll be taking my gear with me, thanks for the video.
No,its Pendennis Point down in the Falmouth arera.
26:45 We call them "horned pike" and "beak pike" in Sweden.
🤘😅👌 love this show
Great video Graeme 👍🐳🐳😎
Ace stuff cheers you legend
Brilliant
Are you curr in cornwall graham
My grandfather told me that 70 years ago you could catch them on a bare hook by the kilos and kilos.
That was off West bexington beach in Dorset.
Nowadays it's almost impossible to find them.
You don't need to tell me how tough it is now. Last few years have been poor for many. Just hope the autumn might bring some in.
Bit of saltwater fly fishing Graham? Mackerel on the fly
Mackerel on the fly ?...Blimey I would like to see a Mackerel on anything at the moment !!
@@TAFishing looks like you had to work for them!
never seen anyone so happy to catch a scat
😂😂 Scad not scat 💩
@@fishingnorfolk brownie point for you sir
Good idea but won't the stopknot catch on the rod guides when casting???
Goes through the rings on most rods.As long as you clip it snugly and use the right size bead for it to butt up against.
In the 60's I was a kid. My dad took us out in the Fal estuary fishing, we caught 7 at a time, massive whiting on hand lines, they use to swallow the lead and it would catch in the hills. Our hands use to bleed there was that many. Not now though. The EU saw to that.
Whats the EU got to do with that? Hahahaha
These days, you get arrested and thrown in jail if you say you're English, dont you.
And thats why they call u the Mackarel boy
Hiya, just a quick question, how long do you leave your baits in the water? Does it varys depending on target species?
Yes,but I would say I probably leave mine in too long.Sometimes an hour.Best to check after your first cast in case the crabs have robbed you. I would think 15 mins might be a better "soak" time ?
Is it me or have you posted this video before? Im sure ive watched this lol
👍👍👍
do we get marlin in UK
There has been a White Marlin caught by a commercial bass rod and line angler out on the banks off the Isle of Wight. Plus there was a Broadbill Swordfish filmed just off the coast out from Bracklesham Bay. I believe that one might be up on TH-cam.
was expecting something about blue sharks and only a fool would chum the water then jump in
Why does NZ have so many more edible fish in close proximity to such a beautifulll coastline ..Feel for you Graham until i have to talk to my wife
Thanks for the PM Graham , thought i was using the wrong bait until my best mates keep net applied for an overdraft😂
👍🎣🐟👍🍺
The hardest part is finding them.
You should buy a camper van then you can tow the boat and camp ,????what you think???
No,I won't be doing that.I have finished with all the worry of towing boats.
Falmouth I gess
Pendennis Head ,Falmouth and the old stone quay up the estuary at Mylor.
WE WANT THE HIGH SEAS DRIFTER!!!!!! whats happened to the yellow peril? we miss the adventures, please put us out of our misery.😪😪😪😪😪
He’s selling it, it’s too difficult for him to launch and retrieve on his own now he’s in his 70’s.
How many mackerel are there? thats how many ways you can catch them.
