Another great session/ video Billy , I do like your ethics when it comes to fish lad ,you have me thinking I may be a trip out there somewhere for my next big birthday if I make it that is 😉
Reminds me of back in 70's and 80's fishing the deep lochs in west Scotland for big cod from the shore. You would cast a good distance, the the line from the rod tip was pointing just below the rod a couple of yards out. Excellent session Billy, take care pall.
Hi, if only the fishing was s to still like that Brother. It's been a long time since I've been fishing in Scotland, would love to fish the high lands again sometime soon. See you on the beach 👍😁
Oncr again billy fishing makes me jellous and teaches me at the same time . like the other fella said "good ethics and respect for the fish . i live on the moray firth level with borway and wish to god we had such sport . Love the channel Billy and the instructions 💪🎣 Tight lines buddy see ya on the beach ✌
Hi Wesley. Well, you have got it right in so many ways. And South Africa fishing has made my fishing so much better, so thank you all! Glad you liked it brother, see you on the beach 😁👌
Thanks Billy. great vid. Can't wait to go Cod fishing in November just above the Humber. But I have a summer of Bass and Tope fishing to do first. Tight lines mate. See you on the beach
Great vid! I've watched a lot of your videos lately and I've picked up a lot from them, I'm going to Frøya in August, first time ever in Norway and first time sea fishing, can't wait!
Thanks brother. I think you will have a great time out there, the fish is really good. Great habitat for halibut, big cod and many more species. If you have any questions just ask, see you on the beach 👍😁
only recently discovered your channel billy.Some great information and tips Nice how you try and hide your best locations.we're off to norway again this coming autumn in the camper fishing ,lights and wildcamping.Alesund is a definate stopover enroute north.thanks a lot.
Hi Bud. Alesund is the town, is no good at that time of the year. Stick to the outer Islands, lot of flatfish, rays , codling and ling.Thanks, tight lines Brother 👍😁
@@Billyfishing_watch Cheers ,i'll take that advice.Had loads of mackeral last time 2 years back same time of year,a few codling also further north,take care.
@@Billyfishing_watch Yes,first time was may/june to see the midnight sun and visit Nordkaap.Caught some nice fish for eating along the coast on the way back down as we travelled up through sweden and finland.Also 2 trips in august-september chasing the lights and found some deepwater spots along the way for mostly mackeral and codling.We're off again this coming late august for a couple months heading far north.Chesil beach isn't for me anymore ha ha.take care and keep the videos coming.
Okay, Pete. Just a word of warning! If you are driving back down in, September October. It's the most dangerous time of the year. If you don't Have winter tyres, keep the driving to the daytime. 🤞
Awesome. The big cod still haven't showed up here a bit further north so im a bit jealous at that fishing you got down there, but they will do! You are getting closer to the 40lb now, soooon :D
Hi Tor, there is a small pier in Steinkjer, there are some big cod there around now I think. On the left of the river. You don't need to cast more than 30m or so . Maybe you can get lucky, thanks Brother 👍😁
hi billy you ok pal. brilliant vid as normal bill cheers. what cracking stamp of cod you landed. look forward to your next sess. dont laugh billy me n pal fished easter sat n managed 8 flounders and me pal landed a spring codling all of 34cm haha but we both enjoyed it thats whats it all about chief int it. All the best billy from grimsby uk.
Hi Carl, and thank you. I'm not laughing it's great when you haven't had a good fish in a while. It's a great feeling when you catch something that you don't catch very often like, a coddling. I have a video it's called a dog's life if. And I think it was the first dog fish I caught in over 3 years. It's just like seeing an old friend. you can check it out if you want. all the best brother see you on the beach 👍😁
Hei Billy. I have a question about the hair rig. What is the size of the ring you use at the end of the rig? And where do you get them? Sincerely TJ from Norway 🇳🇴
What a place that is! Shame about the fish not making it but these things happen in fishing, they won't go to waste though =) I really enjoyed the video Billy, thank you! 🎣🎣🎣👍
Cracking session there Billy boy well done.... Every shore anglers dream to catch cod like that from the shore..... Keep up the hard work that monster cod will come.... And it will be well deserved 👏👏
@@Billyfishing_watch I think the attitudes are changing for the better, catching and cooking is great but I don't eat fish. That poses its own problem, I'd have to find someone to give the fish to if I caught one that couldn't recover. I think as long as we always keep the respect for the fish, whatever we do with them, that's the best we can do to enjoy our sport and keep it possible for the future fish heads!
I try not to think of it, makes me sick. When you look at the combined daily tonnage of fish taken by the industry, its a wonder how on earth there are any fish left. Still, I'm sure there is a 40lb Cod out there waiting for one of your big baits! 😉
Another great video Billy - good luck with the 40 pounder 😊 Spent my weekend fishing in Kaikoura catching Red Cod, Conger, Spiny 'dopey' Dogs (like your Spurdog) and School Sharks (like your Tope). Your South African rig and up and over O rig are going to be used on my next West Coast snapper mission 😊
@@Billyfishing_watch no worries Billy, all good 😊 Really enjoying your channel - I've caught Cod and Pollack in the UK, but Halibut is on my bucket list.....
@@iangraham1505 they are fantastic fish, if you fish for the with bait, you will never get to know them. They will follow a lure all the way up to the surface, with no fear,l. A true apex predator.
Can tell you had your pork pies 🤣🤣 sorry for looking the wrong way, but you just showing off now Billy The god Brother 🤣🤣🤣 love ya buddy see you on the beach, Josh will out fish you 🤣🤣🤣
You got me Matt, I love my pork pies. Can you do do AMSR pork pie video, on your channel. 😂🤣 And Josh will never out fish me, I will distract him with the jumbo size pork pies from marks and Spencer's 🤣😂. Fish on Brothers 👍😁👌
Great fishing mate and I love your ethics, I'm the same if I'm killing fish unnecessarily I stop fishing or move or try something else! I can't wait to get back to Norway in June ❤🇧🇻🎣😉👍

@@tonbrouwers8002 I thought you were coming over the cod in Ålesund, to fish from the shore. Most, not all of those fish will have spawned and swam back to by the start of may. But still flaties and rays, ling and sea trout. Best of luck Brother 👍
@@Billyfishing_watch Thanks Billy! I am going with my Dad to have a good time and every fish we catch is just a bonus. It is our third time going to Hildre and just being there is already great.
Great videos Billy, been bingeing your videos for the last week, another sub earned! Love you humour and also respect for the fish and environment. Also interesting to learn new rig and techniques. Been using Braid straight through on my penn multipliers for a while but can't seem to make it cast as long as the FS, watching you videos on this but any main pointers?
@@Billyfishing_watch 4 strand 60lb(0.37mm), can't get over 100yard or so, same set up on FS goes for miles! I note you have the reel down low and control with left, mine is much higher up but I control with the right
@@Billyfishing_watch straight through no leader unless fishing really clear water. Yes seen the vids with 8 strand backing, braid main line and braid leader, lol like i said been bingeing on a a bit of BF! Probs not loading up right may practice a bit of SA casting! Ive got 2 identical agility 2 rods but 1 is FS the other MX designated. Reels are Penn Mag 3s and a Sonik 8000 Srs
The video for loading your multiplier is 4 strand with an eight strand bottom shot the bottom shot is unnecessary foremost fishing. If you are power casting you need a shock leader, I've explained in how to setup your multiplier mono is no good. You need a braid leader for fishing with bread, otherwise you'll get wind nuts. If your casting technique is good the multiplier will cast much further. Does your multiplier have magnetic brakes. If it does, you should adjust them and it will help with the distance.
Been binging your vids lately the fishing looks great over there and you've got a knack for talking to the camera. If you don't mind me asking , how did you end up living in Norway?
Hi Pim, the cod come to this area to spawn, once a year it is the only time you can catch them. I was fishing into 50 / 60 m. Thanks brother fish on 👍😁👌
Thanks Nigel, somebody needs to tip the scales sometimes. I had as much fish as I needed. And you know the old expression there's plenty more fish in the sea, but maybe not for long. Fishing on 👍😊
@@Billyfishing_watch True, I got some strange looks half way through a Mackerel trip last year when I packed up. Had enough for the Winter Cod and didn't see the point in keeping going and killing more.
I think you got right down there. I have some rods from Africa. Some Shimano elites and some assassins equinox. I just love the action they have and despite the fact therefore big game they are very sensitive. I' trying to get people to use more circle hooks in Europe and the Northern hemisphere so someway we can repair some damage. thanks brother👍
@@Billyfishing_watch i have the new equinox-.... casts an absolute mile- especially with braid, which i think will be an absolute gamechanger for you with the depths you are fishing, (bite detection and just pulling power)!
Hi Robert, in shallow water I will get between 40 to 50 minutes and in deeper water they will fish for 60 to 70 minutes. There are more crustaceans in shallow water, than deep water. There are more starfish other things like that in the deepwater, and they don't rip the bait up quite so quickly.👍😊
Nice cod man! My weekend fishing was a disaster. Strong winds and 4m-5m waves crashing onto the beach. Not funny :-( Maybe go looking for some zander in the damn today. Question Billy... Not into offset circle hooks? Why?
Thanks brother. The offset hooks, my reason for using circle hooks is purely conservation and offset circle is more indiscriminate then a inline circle and defeats the purpose of using circle hooks. Best of luck with the zander. Fish on👍😁
@@Billyfishing_watch Nice one Billy. I could not get inline circle hooks at my locak tackle shop. The ones I picked up have a very slight offset, still waiting to try them 😞 Ha, if I don´t get any zander maybe I should be able to get enough signal crayfish for dinner 🙂
Hi am really like your video am crazy fisherman as well just I moved to Ålesund!! Any advise for shore fishing?? Casting and shore jogging as well !!! Thank you in advance! Best regards Dimitrios !
Hi Mitsos, yes. The outer Islands are the best place to fish mostly. With surf rods and jigs, accept in the spring when the cod come into the centre of Ålesund. Out on the lslannds there are flatfish, cod and rays. Hope this helps out, see you on the beach 👍😁
Billy im from Brighton I’m in Dublin on my stag doo got talking to a guy at mooneys bar opposite the wynn hotel and we got onto the subject of you ! Haha small world love your videos bro keep them coming !
Am thinking of coming over again with my brother would like to go further north but my brother does not fly so cruise is best option alesund would be perfect just need to know best months to go cheers for
March to April the fisher there, and then back out to see. It's pretty hard fishing though, you will need a cast of at least 120 to 150 meters. With a big bait. Also you should know, most of the fish will die. Because of the depth of water. So they have to be taken for the table. The flash is not very good because they have just spawned, they will no feed be for spawning. If you are just there for a couple of days it is unlikely that you will catch anything, from the shore. Thanks Brother 👍😁
Hi Craig, I never fished in Oslo, and I never hear of good fishing there. But there must be some codling and Polack around off the rocks, further South. Best of luck Brother 👍😁
@@Billyfishing_watch many thanks buddy! I have a 5 day trip to the south tip of Norway end of May so looking forward to a great time.. love your videos, I'm ex army and spent many years in North Norway where many of your videos are, you are so lucky to be based out there!
@@Billyfishing_watch Just looked them up and they are the same. A guy got a 8 pound 26 incher yesterday to win the fish pool $$. I won last year with one about the same size.
Hi. Where I am fishing in the video, is a popular place for dog walkers. And if you have seen the rig I was using, you will realize that it is unsafe. Thanks 👌
I understand and respect your decision to cease fishing beyond a certain point to avoid harming fish, but it's an approach inconsistent with using a fish to provide 1 or 2 baits. If you care about not hurting sentient creatures, but you love fishing, you have to use flys or artificial lures. Here in North Devon I don't catch much in the sea using those methods, probably because I can't be bothered to go further than Come Martin harbour and I'm shit, which has led me to pretty much giving up fishing. That's a great shame because I love fishing but I can't get past the fact that I don't want to kill just for my pleasure. A real dilemma for anglers.
Hi brother. I feel the same way as you in actual fact. But sometimes the circumstances get the better of you! Originally I intended to keep the fish and eat them, but not having caught a post spawn cod before I did not realize that their flesh was not really good. And that was the last video I shot in that area! Thanks Brother 😁👌
@@Billyfishing_watch You're a man of character to react like this to my comment, which, when I read it back, comes across as a bit rude. You also make great videos. All the best to you brother.

Great Video Billy did you get the Yacht @ 5.00m 😁
Hi Martin, glad you liked it. Of course I got it🤣 Thanks Brother 👍😁
Well played on the fish management. Lots of people would have hammered that area if the fish were biting.
Thanks Nigel, somebody needs to tip the scales sometimes. I had as much fish as I needed. And you know the old expression there's plenty more fish in the sea, but maybe not for long. Fishing on 👍😊
@@Billyfishing_watch True, I got some strange looks half way through a Mackerel trip last year when I packed up. Had enough for the Winter Cod and didn't see the point in keeping going and killing more.
That to he right way to do it 👍
Protect your mono with a length of silicone tube.Nice video.
Thanks for the tip, fish on Stu👍😁👌
Like your videos am heading out to saltstruman in april for 10 days were can i get some of them rigs ?
Hi Peter, thanks Brother, find me on Instagram 👍
Have you tried fishing for conger in norway? i've heard of 150 pound conger caught on line not so far from ålesund.
Hi Anton. I have not heard of one quite that big, but yes they get some good conger! It's still on the list. Thanks Brother 👌
prper bait man- very similar to our south african Kob baits.
I think you got right down there. I have some rods from Africa. Some Shimano elites and some assassins equinox. I just love the action they have and despite the fact therefore big game they are very sensitive. I' trying to get people to use more circle hooks in Europe and the Northern hemisphere so someway we can repair some damage. thanks brother👍
@@Billyfishing_watch i have the new equinox-.... casts an absolute mile- especially with braid, which i think will be an absolute gamechanger for you with the depths you are fishing, (bite detection and just pulling power)!
Oioi Billy the codfather as your now known
Thanks brother, fish on 👍😁👌
Hey Billy,
How long do you leave those big layered baits out for, if they’re not being nibbled on?
Hi Robert, in shallow water I will get between 40 to 50 minutes and in deeper water they will fish for 60 to 70 minutes. There are more crustaceans in shallow water, than deep water. There are more starfish other things like that in the deepwater, and they don't rip the bait up quite so quickly.👍😊
@@Billyfishing_watch thanks Billy!
No probs 👍
Nice cod man! My weekend fishing was a disaster. Strong winds and 4m-5m waves crashing onto the beach. Not funny :-( Maybe go looking for some zander in the damn today. Question Billy... Not into offset circle hooks? Why?
Thanks brother. The offset hooks, my reason for using circle hooks is purely conservation and offset circle is more indiscriminate then a inline circle and defeats the purpose of using circle hooks. Best of luck with the zander. Fish on👍😁
@@Billyfishing_watch Nice one Billy. I could not get inline circle hooks at my locak tackle shop. The ones I picked up have a very slight offset, still waiting to try them 😞 Ha, if I don´t get any zander maybe I should be able to get enough signal crayfish for dinner 🙂
Sounds great 😋
I live here!!
Enjoy, buddy. Love Ålesund, glad you liked it. Thanks 😁👌
Hi am really like your video am crazy fisherman as well just I moved to Ålesund!! Any advise for shore fishing?? Casting and shore jogging as well !!! Thank you in advance!
Best regards Dimitrios !
Hi Mitsos, yes. The outer Islands are the best place to fish mostly. With surf rods and jigs, accept in the spring when the cod come into the centre of Ålesund. Out on the lslannds there are flatfish, cod and rays. Hope this helps out, see you on the beach 👍😁
@@Billyfishing_watch thank You so much!!! I will try out hope I will see you around!
@@mitsosmiaris2478 no probs 👍
Our first time in Norway stopped in Alesund and got a ling but no sign of cod, where do you get your bait?
Hi Bryn, I get my bait in eurospar. Tight lines Brother 👍
Billy im from Brighton I’m in Dublin on my stag doo got talking to a guy at mooneys bar opposite the wynn hotel and we got onto the subject of you ! Haha small world love your videos bro keep them coming !
I hope he was saying good stuff about me 😅 Have a good stag! See you on the beach brother 😁👍
I dream about fish like that 👍
Darren, it doesn't have to be a dream. Thanks brother, see you on the beach 👍😁👌
They built the road with pot holes to make you feel more at home😀😀😀fine fish 👏👏👏
But I've got a Dublin accent those potholes are from Kerry 😜👌 thanks Brother 👍😁
Fresh cod & chips with salt and vinger please 🤣
Yep, that's what I had for dinner last night 😂 Thanks Dean, see you on the beach 👍😁
Can I ask what month was this video filmed
Hi Ronald. What part of the world, are you in?
Scotland video's are brilliant I was in norway in September on a cruise took spinning gear caught a few pollack in olden
Am thinking of coming over again with my brother would like to go further north but my brother does not fly so cruise is best option alesund would be perfect just need to know best months to go cheers for
March to April the fisher there, and then back out to see. It's pretty hard fishing though, you will need a cast of at least 120 to 150 meters. With a big bait. Also you should know, most of the fish will die. Because of the depth of water. So they have to be taken for the table. The flash is not very good because they have just spawned, they will no feed be for spawning. If you are just there for a couple of days it is unlikely that you will catch anything, from the shore. Thanks Brother 👍😁
Hi, im in Oslo for a few days next week can anybody recommend any shore fishing spots please? Tks Craig
Hi Craig, I never fished in Oslo, and I never hear of good fishing there. But there must be some codling and Polack around off the rocks, further South. Best of luck Brother 👍😁
@@Billyfishing_watch many thanks buddy! I have a 5 day trip to the south tip of Norway end of May so looking forward to a great time.. love your videos, I'm ex army and spent many years in North Norway where many of your videos are, you are so lucky to be based out there!
Billlllly
Thanks Jon, see you on the beach Brother 👍😁
nice video, you seemed to be walking a bit funny at times, was that because you needed the toilet or a doctor
Thanks. Neither of the two suggested maybe just a bit of slowmo.
Got 8 haddock 1 pollick and a cusk sunday had to throw back all the cod and first time in a while we did well with the cod.
Shame about the cod, but you did well with the Pollock and haddock. I hope to get some haddock soon. see you on the beach 👍😁👌
@@Billyfishing_watch Are your haddock different than the gulf of maine haddock? I thought they were.
I'm not sure, but if you look on my Instagram page. You will see a picture of a European haddock a big one. Billyfishing on insta 👍
@@Billyfishing_watch ok
@@Billyfishing_watch Just looked them up and they are the same. A guy got a 8 pound 26 incher yesterday to win the fish pool $$.
I won last year with one about the same size.
Try a pendulum cast.
Hi. Where I am fishing in the video, is a popular place for dog walkers. And if you have seen the rig I was using, you will realize that it is unsafe. Thanks 👌
I understand and respect your decision to cease fishing beyond a certain point to avoid harming fish, but it's an approach inconsistent with using a fish to provide 1 or 2 baits. If you care about not hurting sentient creatures, but you love fishing, you have to use flys or artificial lures. Here in North Devon I don't catch much in the sea using those methods, probably because I can't be bothered to go further than Come Martin harbour and I'm shit, which has led me to pretty much giving up fishing. That's a great shame because I love fishing but I can't get past the fact that I don't want to kill just for my pleasure. A real dilemma for anglers.
Hi brother. I feel the same way as you in actual fact. But sometimes the circumstances get the better of you! Originally I intended to keep the fish and eat them, but not having caught a post spawn cod before I did not realize that their flesh was not really good. And that was the last video I shot in that area! Thanks Brother 😁👌
Oh yeah the macro was bought in the supermarket frozen 👍
@@Billyfishing_watch You're a man of character to react like this to my comment, which, when I read it back, comes across as a bit rude. You also make great videos. All the best to you brother.
@KaliYug. Being honest is sometimes confused as rude 😁
Got me two of them 525 reels fantastic video
Hi David. Hope they catch you lots fish, glad you liked it. Fish on Brother 👍😁
hello brother, I see you were fishing in my town💪💪💪
Sure was! The most beautiful town in Norway 😁👌
