Lure fishing through 1000s of Baitfish!

- This phenomenon happens every year. 1000s of Bait fish are chased on to the Beach by Mackerel and Bass.
In this video you see a 66cm Bass I caught on Lure and some amazing scenes as the Mackerel round up small Herring on to the Beach.

Thanks to the Website British Sea fishing, They are a great online resource and that’s where I got the Garfish Facts.
About time. Had 6 off the Beach over the last long tides all on bait. All coughing up small crabs.
Only ever seen the water in a boil like that once before, you're very lucky 🎣🐟👍
Wicked session Matt. Nothing better than in the water chasing bass and mackerel 😊😊😊
Yes thanks Dave your right about being IN the water too
Crazy amount of fish in your area .. well done
Hi I've caught many gar fish at rame head and penley point in Cornwall they make great Whiting bait in the winter.
Good to know!
I had a couple at cawsand afew days ago on a 11g silver wedge
Caught many garfish and used them for bass baits, had some lovely bass on them
Nice!
Amazing to see so many bait fish, hard to believe you could get anything to take your lure with so much bait fish around. Thanks for sharing Matt you take care mate 👍🎣🎣
Thanks yes its kind of too full in the sea.
Caught a nice size Garfish a few nights ago - it was about 50cm long and over 2" width - on a pachinko125. I was fishing a small pebbly cove and it took about 3 yards from waters edge
Yes! I was right there imagining that with you then
Been over Brixham today. Landed my first Wrasse, but absolutely dead for anything like bass or mackerel. Not sure if your in Devon or not. Lovley work tho, great video! I am dying to get a top water bass smash. Still dreaming
I’m in Sussex dusk and dawn are your friends and we are now I. The best time of the year
Great video and all action.
Glad you enjoyed it. Try to make the most of these rare occurrences
I've caught loads of garfish - but then again I was fishing on the coast in Denmark, where they're very common and arrive in big shoals. they can be hard to hook but you attach a single hook to a lure like a Dexter using a bit of monofil about 25-30mm long so it trails a bit
they're amazing fun on a light fly rod using a streamer with a bit of weight to make it rise and sink on the retrieve. they often jump and 'tail walk'
(about the drag problem: I always loosen the drag after a session to stop the felt pads being compressed and getting 'grabby')
Hi, have been watching and enjoying your channel for a while now but this will be my first comment! Caught my first Garfish today off the kayak with a float and a little bit of sand eel. It lept out of the water a great deal. Landed it in my kayak, where it promptly shook itself off the hook and back into the water! Love the channel by the way! Best, Kev...from the South West
Welcome aboard! Thanks for commenting and great news on the gar
Love it when it's like this. Hasn't really happened down my way this side of summer. Had a night in may but that's the only time I've had mackerel in numbers this year. Keep up the great work 💪
Yes Luke this was the first time this year, Usually happens when i'm at work!
@@SaltwaterAngler typical isn't it lol. I lure fished 10+ times last week for 1 gar fish , 1 lost cuttle fish , 1 lost mackerel and about 5 follows from bass, it's been so bad down this way.
That’s amazing the bait fish there eh you would of thought the big bass would of been in the bait ball, here in guernsey Channel Islands we don’t get anything like that stunning👍👍🎣
As always, STUNNING, 👍kind regards Mike, Norfolk. Tight lines.
Hi Mike thanks as always
Mackerel stayed up here thick in North Norfolk this year giving us incredible fishing for 6 weeks, holding loads of bass coming through in marauding shoals literally a rod length out. Was brilliant. Since they left I’ve enjoyed 8 blanks 😂😭
Interesting, lots of reports the South West were quieter so maybe all the mackerel headed east !
@@SaltwaterAngler yes maybe, I’ve not seen anything like it. Was incredible. Makes you feel very flat when you’re not catching though 😂😭
As always a great post 👍
Thanks again for watching
Awesome again Matt, loved catching mackerel using light gear & the old mackerel spinner, float fish 4 garfish great fun on light gear, good all round bait ,think u need Penn lube 4 reel .Happy catching from Australia Nick
Hi Nick always look forward to your comment! Nothing wrong with the reel in the end it had one washer the wrong way round !
Lovely video Matt, I expect you know someone but if not Felindre are a good reel repair service.
Good to know thanks. Will make a note- I feeling pretty stupid all it was was a back to front washer I took it in to Martyn in Hastings Angling centre and he sorted it in a few minutes!
Excellent upload as usual mate and thank goodness your not one of the tinsel chuckers who fills a binbag,some people would have taken to many and probably wasted loads as they don't keep well ,your a proper fisherman mate
Yea it’s not for me standing shoulder to shoulder with strings of 12! The mackerel is a wonderful fish a mini tuna deserving of our respect
Thanks for sharing 👍
No problem 👍 Glad you watched it!
Crackin video, those bait fish washed up do you ever collect some for the freezer for future bait.
You’re so lucky having those mackerel in so close the seas are looking so healthy.👍
Yes on occasion and your right about them being a good bait. To be fair it doesn't happen that often though.
Im still out of action....turning green with envy. You should have taught the one by your feet to sit up and give his fin! ;) Lovely spot you have up there Matt. I caught large Gar off Brixham breakwater last year...orrible things! :D
Lol yes but garfish are awesome surely !
I caught my first garfish on Fenit causeway, Co Kerry this year.
Used to catch Gars off Hastings pier on Floatfished Mackerel strip. Great fun on light gear. Don't seem to see as many around now.
No we had a good year or two 2010 ish
Hi Matt. Great video. I have only had one small Gar down our little mark on a seeker. Not had a decent one for years. Used to float fish for them on the old pier many years ago.
I got a Shimano Nasci last week. What a great reel. Really impressed with it.
I'm going to go down tomorrow morning after my last night shift before that wind picks up if you're about?
Hoping the water will be clear.
Thanks for the info! Yes the nasci rules! The right amount of value without going OTT
Thanks Matthew for fantastic video's I had a thought about whitebait, have you tried using it for fishing may be freeze it for fishing some other time of year just before the Mackerel come in
I do but I’m so focused on fishing for the bass my brain literally forgets to take any home to freeze!
Well done Matt, a good session & a lovely location. I couldn't believe my eyes the first time I saw thousands of bait fish jumping onto the beach at Chesil, years ago. I was just as astonished the first time I caught a Garfish at Beer, again many years ago, I had never seen anything like it! Bigger ones put up quite a fight. Great video, keep them coming. Ps: why not treat yourself to a pair of waders?!
Thanks 👍 Some lovely memories for you there. Im a fan of feeling that water temperature and travelling light- Still waiting for Wader sponsorship!
Fair play!@@SaltwaterAngler
Hello Matt, another brilliant video, I purchased a 9ft Abu Garcia Ruby Spinning Rod a while back, what reel would you recommend?,? Thanks Matt keep up the good work.🐟🐟
Shimano range FX to a Sedona depends on budget but always Shimano
Thank You Matt, Top Man.👍
Nice
Thanks
Bought a Drift rod a few weeks back it’s fantastic casts out of site. Loads of Mackerel but no Bass yet. I am a lure pike angler so know a bit about lures and make them.
Nice must be rewarding making your own lures
Another great video Matt
Pity about the reel giving you so trouble how would you rate it compared to the Sedona?
I have caught garfish at home in Ireland will be along time before I get back interesting fish.
Its worth every penny and actually i stupidly had the spacer the wrong way round. User error
I love the nature of the uk coast, is this south Wales? Oh and I've caught quite a few gar fish in Brixham dock, using float and mackerel slits, great fun 👍
Happy days ! Yep the uk can be awesome
Crazy sight with the water boiling with baitfish. Terrible thought that you're born to be eaten.
It’s a harsh life out there for our fish friends
i remember years ago fishing off a charter boat in cardigan bay an it was the maceral who were jumping out the water they were being chased by a pod of dolphins about 30 or so
What an Awesome site
didn't have fancy phones in
them days @@SaltwaterAngler
Where are you fishing please love the videos
Its a secret !
Are they tasty looks like a loot of free food
Yes fry whole
Where did you fish ?
What time did you start
Looks so good where is this place love to come down for a fishing day
Its a secret theres people listening!
Wish it was like that were i am . My bait freezer is nearly empty
Ohh no but it’s only been like this 2 days in 365
2 days like that is all i need .
Matt what are the hooks like on them copy's, no good being cheap if the hooks are rubbish ?
Just been testing them today - in summary they are average , not a total disaster . The ones on bass lures in Cornwall are super strong.
what rod / reel are you using here matt doesnt seem to be on your updated tackle list :)
Hi yes well spotted it is the new drift rod , you can get one here through my affiliate link - They are a new range of varying sizes. I’ve found the action to be nice and tight - no saggyness if that makes sense 😀 The reel is my usual Nasci which should be on the list ( affiliate links give me a small commission and it really helps the channel , it won’t cost you anymore I will made up if it’s used)
New subscriber here 👋 Another great video 🎣🎣 what camera are you using?
Thanks for the sub. I just use my iPhone 13
@@SaltwaterAngler Thanks for the reply. I had heard that the new iPhones were actually better than GoPros 👍👍👍
What's the spinning reel are you using also share the spot you fishing at?
stradic is the reel
I have had garfish off the pier at sewanage 1/2 to 2lb
Wow what a catch, Used to have a few every year on the Lures- But not had one for 6 Years now
I was there last week and had bait fish jumping two feet clear out ! The locals where only interested in lrf with tiny hooks and bait they said it's probably a shad chaseing the small fish until a holiday dude using a spinning rod janked out a 4lb bass took some photos then returned it !
😮 is it around Eastbourne
This happens all over our coastline at the same time when conditions are optimal
My question is, if the mackerel are being chased by bass would it perhaps be worth using a sinking soft weedless Like a black minnow to get under the shoal where there may be a lazy bigger one lurking below picking off easy meals ,?
Yes that is always a good theory. Bigger slower fish are shallower and I tried this in todays session, but not filmed today
@@SaltwaterAngler excellent id love to watch that
I need help, Just got my hand on my first zonk and got it snagged and had a heart attack ( not literally ) but luckily i managed to put the thing out, so how do I work a zonk like a sub surface lure with out retreiving it at the speed of light??????
Is it a sinking or floating version S or F possibly on the packet
sinking@@SaltwaterAngler have i messed up should i have gotten the floating instead??
@@Abdullah-MakkiMohammed no, not at all Basic theory but in a shoal Bigger bass are lower down. Spearfishing and commercial reports back this up. So yes you want it to sink and then work it back at the right depth. I find it works best in really buoyant oxygenated water. Speed of retrieve dependent or currents and flow of water so you vary it dependant on that. As with all lures do as little as possible to make the lure act like a bait fish. It’s a good lure for the shingle beaches which should lessen your chances of getting snagged.
Shame about your reel i hope you can get it fixed. I dont mind catching Mackerel as a by catch its better than blanking but it is hard to get through them sometimes
It was one washer out of place! All good now
I’ve Done game fishing for 20 years and
Can be boring
Why chuck back mackerel,once handled they die within 10mins when returned to sea
No that’s just an old bullshit myth. They have been successfully tagged by fisheries scientists and re caught some time later.
There’s evidence to the contrary, we tested it big rock pools seemed their survival rate based more on time out of water. Also, I dropped it !
Where is this place??
This happens all along the Sussex coast line it’s a case of being there when it happens.
Perfect for a fly rod?
Yes I tried it the next day but the fish had gone
no mackrawl in brighton just herring
What! No way i thought it was a Hotspot!
yh was no mackrawl at all this year tuna is eating them@@SaltwaterAngler
had 50 start of the season nothing else now just herring@@SaltwaterAngler
Good thing my wife wasn't there she would be grabbing the small fish and getting the frying pan out (she eats them whole ...not my thing )
She’s on to a good thing ! Lemon ginger and chilli !

Good time to take children out fishing, otherwise they get bored
