Went night fishing with the old man years ago to port Logan canny hike from Durham but worth the memory’s thanks for putting this on I think I need to go back
That whole coast around the Mull of Galloway and around the Solway coast is my heartland. Such a fantastic when the wind & rain have a holiday . Glad you had a good trip, hope it's not your last, there's plenty more coves just waiting you.
I love it around there, I had a cracking session there in November. It chucked it down and blew a hooley the night before but cleared up beautifully as forecast for one day. Had some lovely fish out.

this is MrBear from florida glad you had a good trip. was going to go out this week and we have 10to15mph with thunder storms, im going to have to take fishing lessons.
I could do with taking the SIB over there, the last time was on the kayak a good few years ago and it was a good trip, your never quite sure what you'll catch next 👍.
Love your videos. I’m just getting started in sea kayaking, doing my research now. Ready for next spring. Would you be able to make a review on the differences with the sturgeon & supernova? I watched both build videos. But would like to hear your opinions about them both. also your full gear/kit/setup you take with you. People love setup videos and personal opinions and it also helps massively for others like myself getting started.
Hi Paul, thanks very much I’m glad you’re enjoying the content. Yes a set up vid has been on my radar for a while it’s just a case of finding the time. I’m not sure if I’d do a specific side by side with the supernova and the sturgeon as there’s not that much between them other than the size/weight but if you have any questions just fire away. It’s an amazing way to fish and I’m sure you’re gonna love it 👍🎣
@@onthedropfishing hey thanks. Well the supernova is more then double the price of the standard sturgeon. Would you say the price difference is worth it for the pedals? What other main difference adds to this price tag. what’s the main difference between the sturgeon and the sturgeon HV. Is it just the heigher seat position? Would you say it would be more beneficial to someone who has bulging disc and sometimes suffer from sciatica. (I know you can’t offer medical advice, just personal opinion) A gear setup video would be great! I have been writing down some of your setup I’ve seen you write to other people in comments 🙂
Honestly it depends what you want. I personally prefer pedal (flipper drive sturgeon and prop drive supernova) to paddling but it’s different for everyone. The supernova is a big beast and I use it when the launch is straight forward like a slip. I take the sturgeon if I don’t know the area as it’s lighter and easier to launch/put on the van 👍
@@liam4169 first and last time I’ve lost anything of the yak, I’m a religious leasher myself however I was just adjusting the drift by a few yards and when I turned around to get my rod….. 🥲
Look how calm that water is at the beginning of the video! Blissful tranquility right there. One question. Does it not get to hot in the drysuit with the hot weather we’ve been getting?
It wasn't too bad yesterday Paul, it was a little chilly if anything, there was a bit of a frett in the morning. I've been hot but never massively uncomfortable...yet! 👍🎣
Well done on another great video, good to see such a mix bag of fish. Would you ever consider doing a video on read the fishfinder .ie showing what good ground looks like ect.. Thanks again.
Thanks mate, it was a lush day. Don’t think I would do an entire FF vid but I do often whip my phone out to show people what I’m over. In fact I’m over some very rough ground tomorrow so you’ve given me an idea. Tight lines David 👍🎣
Great video again, I enjoy the west coast videos. As I’m pretty new to kayak fishing I was wondering what’s your rules for wind? What would be your limit for forecast speeds? I have been using 10mph average and 15mph gusts which has massively limited my time out. Cheers
Cool session there Chris! How are you finding the supernova v sturgeon? Never had a flipper or prop drive and am considering these along with a feelfree lure 13.5.
Hi mate, I like them both a lot. I suppose the only thing you need to factor in is that the supernova is considerably bigger and therefore heavier. I personally prefer the prop drive on the Supernova but prefer the chuckaboutability of the sturgeon. If I’m going to an unfamiliar or a difficult launch for example I’ll take the sturgeon. If it’s a straight forward down a ramp job I’ll take the nova. Hope that helps 👍🎣
Hi Chris great video I've just bought supernova thanks for the discount👍 I just mounted transducer do I need to mount protective cover? it will not interfere with scanning?
Hi mate that’s just the way it’s anal fin runs. It’s prominent on this one as It has a particularly white underside. I can see what you mean though. If you watch on a larger screen you’ll see. Tight lines mate 👍🎣
How are you finding this heat buddy. I live 3 mins from the beach. Weirdly it doesn't seem to have any difference to the fishing. Sunny day are fishing like choppy, overcast days. Just weird. I'm Cornwall based
Hi Andy, the heat doesn’t really make that much of a difference up here to be honest as the water will always be relatively cool and there isn’t that much in the way of surface fishing anyway, Well certainly not on my stretch of coast but over west it can have an effect, but again like you I haven’t noticed it. Is it just the bass fishing it normally effects down your way? 👍🎣
Thanks mate, it was a race to get there and beat the wind. I knew I only had a short window early on the Friday. It absolutely bucketed down that night 👍🎣
Do you eat a bit of fish Chris? I have to say most mine go back, I like a bit of cod, but when you think the head is a 3rd of the body is the head, it has to be a good size before I'd take its life, kayak fishing saved my life mate, a mile off you can hear nothing, glad I don't go with you, you never shut up 🤣🤣🤣
Yes I love a bit of cod but like you I enjoy seeing them go back. I love being out there…I still talk to myself even when the cameras aren’t on! I often ask myself the question, who exactly are you talking to? 🤣🎣
LOOKS LIKE A CRACKING DAY CHRIS!!!
It was absolutely lush Ashley mate 👍🎣
Went night fishing with the old man years ago to port Logan canny hike from Durham but worth the memory’s thanks for putting this on I think I need to go back
It’s a cracking spot in it’s day Arron, I’ll be back soon 👍🎣

Brilliant fishing 👍🎣
Thanks very much it was a canny day 👍🎣
That Sea, the scenery, and all those Fish as well. Mary Poppins time, Chris, "Practically Perfect In Every Way" 😁
It was a beautiful day with plenty of fish. Happy days 👍🎣

Hi mate, I’ve a little weather window this morning so I’m up bright and early! 🎣👍
Nice going, great video. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much I’m glad you enjoyed it 👍🎣
Awesome stuff mate, plenty of variety there 👍👍🤠
It was a lush day, I actually had a few coley out as well but they didn’t make the edit. It’s a cracking spot 👍🎣
Great video again Chris..
Thanks very much Wayne, glad you enjoyed it 👍🎣
Nice big pollock that!!
Cheers Ryan, it was a chunk wasn’t it 🎣
Cracking vid back in my old stomping ground. Memories. Know every rock mark around there. Plenty of species which is great.
It’s a great spot isn’t it. I had coley as well but they didn’t make the vid. I’ll be back soon 👍🎣
Another great episode Chris with a good variety of fish. That cracking Pollock and the equally beautiful Haddock. Nice job pal.
Cheers mate, I was really pleased to pull the haddock in it’s been a long time since I had one on a hook. 🎣
Great vid Chris
Thanks very much, it was such an enjoyable day 👍🎣
Really enjoyed watching ,nice to see so many healthy species well done 👏
Thanks very much, I’m glad you enjoyed 👍🎣
Cracking video chris thank you for taking us with you mate 👍 🎣🎣
My pleasure mate, glad you enjoyed it 👍🎣
I could do with taking the SIB over there, the last time was on the kayak a good few years ago and it was a good trip, your never quite sure what you'll catch next 👍.
Yeah it’s a cracking mark, gets better later in the summer as well. 👍🎣
Another great day's fishing, I think that I enjoyed it as much as you did Chris and a good mixed bag cheers for the video mate.👍👍👍🎣🎣🎣
Thanks very much Glen, it’s a lovely spot when the weathers right 👍🎣

What drysuit are you using?
@@paulkemp8784 I’m using a typhoon ps330 extreme. It’s perfect for me. Happy shopping! 👍
One of the best marks on the west cost that is. its a mission to get there, but well worth it.
It really is worth the trip. One of my favourite places 👍🎣
Awesome days fishing 🎣 😎 👌
Thanks very much Darren 👍🎣
great session, great content as normal.
Thanks very much Simon, I’m glad you enjoyed it. It was a canny day 🎣
Great session there Chris! Thanks for taking us out there with you. Always enjoyable to watch your video's. 👌
Thanks very much Rob, I’m glad you enjoyed it 👍🎣
Another entertaining video Chris 👍
Thanks very much Stuart 👍🎣
Great session 👏
Thanks very much 👍🎣
great days fishing pal , looks like you had the weather too 👌
Yeah I was lucky, I had about an 8 hour window to get out in. It was horrific that night! 🎣
As ever, ace.
Thanks very much mate 👍🎣
Smashing vid Chris! Great session aswell! Caught my first cuckoo wrasse this weekend too! Beauty of a fish! Keep em coming mate!
Nice one, they’re beautiful aren’t they? 👍🎣
Iv just got myself the slammer 5 mate well hopefully it’s here tday anyway lol 🤞 can’t wait to use it :)
They’re awesome reels mate…unfortunately mine is now at the bottom of the North Sea 😫
Omg mate how did that happen! I always leash everything down because iv lost tackle before lol
@@liam4169 first and last time I’ve lost anything of the yak, I’m a religious leasher myself however I was just adjusting the drift by a few yards and when I turned around to get my rod….. 🥲
The sound & video quaility is amazing - you can tell you think about it
Thanks very much Jezz, I think it takes longer to edit than it does to film it! I’m glad you’re enjoying the content mate 👍🎣
Another epic day out, thanks for the content 👍
Thanks very much, it was a lush day 👍🎣
Fantastic video, as always!
Thanks very much I’m glad you enjoyed it 👍🎣
Brilliant videos!! Do you ever keep one or two for yourself 🙉
Cheers Darren, I like to see them swim away. If one doesn’t go back for whatever reason it never gets wasted though. I love a bit of cod 👍🎣
Look how calm that water is at the beginning of the video! Blissful tranquility right there.
One question. Does it not get to hot in the drysuit with the hot weather we’ve been getting?
It wasn't too bad yesterday Paul, it was a little chilly if anything, there was a bit of a frett in the morning. I've been hot but never massively uncomfortable...yet! 👍🎣
Just realised this was last weeks, I wasn't hot as I had the motor so wasn't peddling plus it was a tad windy! 😂 👍
Hi Chris, great videos, those Pollack looked great fun on your set-up, just wondering what drysuit that is, and is it any good all the best jim
Hey Jim, thanks very much I’m glad you’re enjoying the content. The drysuit is a Typhoon PS330 extreme and it’s spot on 👍🎣
I think it’s time you invested in a net !! Well done 👍🏻
That’s just something else to pack! 🤣🎣
That's certainly whet my appetite. I'm over that way at the end of the month first time fishing. What depths are you fishing 🎣
Average about 10 metres but the depth changes constantly around there 👍🎣
@@onthedropfishing thanks, gives me a starting point 😉
Hi Chris, Great session! - did you mention the new rod make and model?
Hi David mate, the rod in this one is a Penn Prevail II 40g 👍🎣
Hi Chris great video upgrading my fishfinder was wondering how you find the lowrance reveal and is it the triple shot transduceryiu have
Hi mate, I really like it. I have the HDI transducer with mine. I also got the
C - Maps card and it works a treat 🎣
Well done on another great video, good to see such a mix bag of fish. Would you ever consider doing a video on read the fishfinder .ie showing what good ground looks like ect.. Thanks again.

Hi mate, glad you’re enjoying them. Same as you 10mph is my limit. It’s frustrating but safe. Most people stick to that rule 👍🎣
Cool session there Chris! How are you finding the supernova v sturgeon? Never had a flipper or prop drive and am considering these along with a feelfree lure 13.5.

@@onthedropfishing Cheers for that mate! Take it easy 🤙🏼
Hi Chris great video I've just bought supernova thanks for the discount👍 I just mounted transducer do I need to mount protective cover? it will not interfere with scanning?
Hi mate, thanks very much I’m glad you enjoyed it. Happy new kayak! Yes stick the cover on, it won’t interfere with the sonar at all 👍🎣
Not sure if anyone noticed the big slice up the pollocks stomach at 10:00 exactly as if it’s been gutted and came back to life😂
Hi mate that’s just the way it’s anal fin runs. It’s prominent on this one as It has a particularly white underside. I can see what you mean though. If you watch on a larger screen you’ll see. Tight lines mate 👍🎣

@@onthedropfishing yes. Especially if they are on the top. But now they just seem to be everywhere. A good thing really
That’s a good problem to have! 🎣
what size and colour lures would you say works best for cod?
Pink if I had to pick one. Depends where you’re fishing size wise but I go for 20-40g as a rule 👍🎣
Hiya, seen all your vids, can you tell me the name of the stinky stuff you use on your lures. Cheers mate.
Hiya mate, it’s called strictly baits bait spray. You can get it from GoOutdoors 👍🎣
@@onthedropfishing Thanks pal
What was the date you were there bud?
8 days ago mate
Thought it can’t of been this last few days, the weather has been pants. Looking to go up on Tuesday with the SIB, fingers crossed 🤞
