Brilliant result with the hounds Mick,just goes to show that we always use pulley rigs for hounds but a 3 hook paternoster can catch anything ..Top Angling
Yes - I mainly fish with small baits and hooks; but still get a fair number of decent fish. Fishing big baits and big hooks, you'll increase your chances of getting better fish, but are unlikely to catch the small ones, so are more likely to blank.
Well done Michael, just goes to show that you are always in with a shout while you have a bait in the water. I think I may have packed up long before your capture 🐟
Awesome again Mick smooth hounds called gummy shark here prized catch and good eating sold in most chippies good to give to kids 2 eat as they don't have any bones. Happy catching from Australia Nick
Many thanks for that and your sub. At some point I'll go over my gear, but only once I've sorted it out - currently in a big mess and depleted in rigs! The rods are Colmic 07s, which I believe they have stopped making now.
Hi Mick ... It just goes to show that fish can turn up, even when you are packing up to leave ... Extending your session proved worthwhile, even though you didn't catch any target plaice ... 2 stonking smoothies would make any anglers day ... Well done. 🐟🐟🎣🎣 Ps. I think Dylan,from 'Frugal Outdoors', has purloined your hoodie ... It has 'The sole man' on the back of it ...
First time seeing one of your videos, the detail you went into to highlight your mark was much appreciated
Welcome aboard and thanks for your comment!
Another great video Michael and a lovely smooth hound top man and that crab i would have had that for the pot love crabs cheers
Cheers Clive.

Always enjoy your videos thanks for sharing another informative piece of hard work to entertain us fishy folk
Thanks for that.
Well done thanks for location markers as ever you are best vlogger for doing this.I fished this venue a couple of years ago i blanked.
It can be a bit hit and miss. I'm not keen on vids that refer to venues as 'a mark on Chesil,' or 'somewhere on the south coast' etc..
A great end to a slow start two nice smoothies rod.Well done.
Thanks for that.
Me and the wife just been to west bexington caught my PB bass but that was it all bank holiday weekend
At least that made up for a quite time - well done!

Yes - you never know with Chesil; it can suddenly switch on just when you are thinking that nothing is going to happen.
Nice video. I've been looking for a decent seat/box everywhere. Where did you get yours?
Online - but can't remember where. Its a RidgeMonkey Bucket Seat XL.
Chinook was the highlight of the video for me, very low pass from it. The gurnard you caught is a grey gurnard.
Thanks for the ID - I think that might be my first of that species! Thanks for watching Robert.

I know a couple who would take them; but I can't bring myself round to doing so!
New subscriber, great videos. Do any of your videos cover the outfit you are using. I am looking for more information on your rod. Thanks

Vid with sole on its way soon! Sometimes we give up when the fish are about to start feeding - always worth that 'last cast'.
Parking charges are a crime,
Yes - but you can still park there for free in the evening - just have to time your sessions around that.
You should take your drag off when smoothounds are about
Good tip!
Another nice video, should consider keeping fish that are definitely not going survive .
That's right - these were OK though and I wouldn't take smooth hounds.
