had some great cod off there in the 70s, couldnt risk the heart attack now going over the top😢
I keep getting that about that mark and cod, one guy told me there never used to be any rays there. Funny how things change. Tight lines
It's ace when the rays are on the feed like that. Have sessions like that quite regular here. If you want to join up with me I fish for huss often on Anglesey. Great vid again🐟🎣
First time I've experienced it, but it was great fun, especially after blanking the session before. I'll give you a shout if I head down your way. Tight lines👍🎣
Spent many a cold winters night there 😂
Used to be a mecca for cod fishing back in the 70's and 80's but not many now.
Dogs a plenty tho 🤦🏻♂️
Hey Nathan , another great video from you. I have no intention of teaching my grandmother to suck eggs ( Whatever that means), but we catch loads of thornbacks here in the rivers and estuaries of Essex. The main thing to get your head around is that the shape of these fish means that when they settle on your bait their wings and tails very often hit the main line giving you a line bite. We tend to leave them for a few minutes and just wind into them. Anyway forgive my interference and keep up the good work, you are always worth watching.
Well done Nathan what a session to be fair , thanks for taking us with you so take care & stay safe
Always a pleasure Steve👍🎣
Well done Nathan. The sort of fishing trip every angler dreams about . . . . .
Think I Knight have been lucky this time round, but it definitely made up for last week's blank. 👍🎣
So envious 😊
Another good video. Thanks for making them. Always find them entertaining. That particular mark produces well but the climb out back to the car is a killer for us old folk! 😅
It is a bit of a heart raiser, glad I had the excuse to stop and film on the way back. Thanks for watching, Ray👍🎣
Great video mate,, I'm from Northern Ireland, but fish regularly in Co.Kerry,,, Bass, Rays are abundance also. We caught a Ray and it was tagged, so we sent the tag of to fisheries ireland, they sent us back a pack with thirty, a twenty euro checque and information on where the fish ha been.... Class!,, get yourself over to Cork and Kerry for a holiday,,, you will love it as much as the Guinness. .
Funny you should say that, I'm booked up to head over at the beginning of August. Looking forward to it
What a session 😮
Great session - great to learn and break new ground !
Too right, almost as exciting as catching the fish
Well done Nathan👍
Ty Nathan. Keep up the great work 👍.
Cheers matey👍🎣
What a session well done
Good session there and the Dogs weren't too much of a problem .
Well done Nathan .....great job on your first successful ray session 👍🏼
Thanks Rich, definitely made up for last week's blank. That's the species ticked off, but maybe need to try again and land a double. Tight lines mate👍🎣
Great video Nathan. I was there last week and the fishing was the same, just about a fish a cast.
Great vid Nathan. 👍
Thanks Matt👍🎣
Hell of a session, well done 👍🏻
Great session that Nathan, love the action of that rod. Im new to beach fishing and looking forward to catching more species like this.
A super session, well done!
Many thanks!
Cracking video Nathan,well done on catching the rays!😀xx
Thanks Angela 😊
Some absolutely cracking rays there Nathan, great session on all accounts. Tight lines buddy.
Only few miles away from last week's session, yet a totally different outcome 🤷♂️ Tight lines Darren👍🎣
Unbelievable episode! It wasn’t raining, snowing or blowing a gale. No tackle losses. A shed load of the target species and most unbelievable of all this top angler has only ever caught 3 dogfish! Obviously never fished on the south coast.
Seriously, another brilliant watch, loving the outtakes.
Keep them coming 👍enjoy every session that you’ve out on especially the rock fishing (shore) fishing sessions.
Thanks Stephen👍🎣
That has to be the best ray fishing session that I have seen on TH-cam ... Brilliant entertainment, Nathan ...
It was definitely the best Ray session I've had 🤣 maybe next time I can break the double digit🤞
Good to have a good day and I like the out takes, it should be a regular feature.
Top marks.
Yeah, it was better than expected! I like the outtakes too. I'll keep including them whenever they happen. Tight lines👍🎣
Cracking session Nathan.
Great way to get off the mark with the rays 🎣
Thanks Nick, I knew it was a productive mark but I wasn't expecting to get that many
Well done, Nathan. I've never fished for Ray but this month's comp is for Ray and your video is a real encouragement. Keep the videos coming.
Thanks mate, and hope you get amongst them
Fantastic session
Thanks!
What an epic dream session, nice bend action in the T900 casting and catching
Go Steady
Definitely was, like kne of the lads said, it was almost too easy. The video didn't show the model very well, but I was using the T700 rather than the T900. Tight lines
Sesh!! Awesome mate, great to watch 👌
Thanks matey👍🎣
Well done looked like a good days fishing. !
Thanks 👍
I'm famous haha sorry about the swearing 🙈😂 was nice to meet you. That's me and my lass in the background 😮
Haha, no worries mate. I could have beeped it out but we're all adults🤣 Good to meet you too👍🎣
what a crackin' day, well done, thanks for sharing👍🎣
very glad you had such great success nathan 👍🏻
Thanks Tommy,👍 It's been tough going recently so it made a nice change
Well done slippy very good days fishing there for you..Great video
Thanks Scott. Roll on next month and the return of the pollack!
Too right slippy can't wait to hit they rocks..get into the summer cod in June with the claws 👌
Nice one Nathan. That must be the best ray mark. Glad you had a great season 😊😊😊
Definitely seems that way, there must be so many fish down there!
Belting session there mate. Some nice rays coming out. Thanks again for a cracking video.
My pleasure Martin, and thanks for watching!
Great video mate and well done on the rays 💯🎣👍
Thanks Ian😊
That looked a very busy sesh mate, nicely done!
Aye, wasn't bad for a few hours fishing. No bigs but enjoyable
That was an interesting session to watch bud. Well done on some nice hook ups. You are certainly fishing it right, the massive one will come. All the best Nath and TL's
Thanks Adz and that's good to know. It gives me more confidence that this wasn't a fluke. Tl's 👍🎣
Nicely done as always dude1👊🏼🎣
Cheers Dids, been a while dude👊🎣
Always watch but on different device's it's brilliant watching the channel grow to what it is now you've put in the effort and deserve it well done dude🎣👊🏼
Great session that Nathan 👍
Thanks Gunner🎣👍
Well done Nathan 👏 great video as usual and session mate 👌🔝 take care and tight lines 🎣👊💪
Thanks mate! Tight lines👊👍🎣
Good stuff, we'll done on catching1 of your new target fish looked like a good day catching no stop fish 👌
Cheers Kev, hope the other species on the list are as easy to catch! Tight lines👍🎣
Great video, it,s Great when you get those days, got to fill your boots they don't come around to often these days. I,ll be out tomorrow pumping lug, and on the crab. All the best.👍
Could have been one of the best daytime sessions using bait I've had. Hope you got some bait💪👍
Every angler!!! Would of loved that session. Well done keep it ganin 👍
Aye, they don't come along all that often!
Great video. Trying for my first ray this year, hope my second session goes half as good as yours. Think I was smiling for nearly 50 minutes 😂 👍
A great watch. Not many anglers realise the potential with ray fishing. They shoal and can be caught in big numbers if you're in the right spot at the right time. One hundred pound of fish on a tide is a realistic target with two rods. You had a good weight on your fist try so I hope you hit this mark again.
you were due a good fishing session, nice one.
Thanks 👍
Well done 👍 good lad great fishing 🎣 👀 And Tight Lines..
Thanks matey👍🎣
Talk about chalk and cheese session’s. What an amazing trip,well worth your effort Nathan 💪🎣🐟
Definitely was, the two marks weren't that far apart either
Great session Nate' Thanks for inviting us along!
Hopefully I made up for last week's video🤞🎣👍
Smashing session Nathan, a bit tamer venue than you normally choose but got the results, the worst bit was going through the bull field, well done, take care, Norfolk Ray.
Yeah, you're right, Ray, spectacular views and good fishing but missing that little approach adrenaline rush Tight lines 👍🎣
great vid bud i usually sit on my hands when i get first bite lets them get bait in mouth
Yeah, that's exactly what I learned on this session, especially with the dongle rig. Didn't need to wait as long with the pennel hooks though
Cracking sesh, I fish that area on boat a couple of times a year get some Cracking ray fishing
I bet the boat throws up some bigger specimens
That was some epic fishing must be thick with fish there, think everyone watching drew a Sharpe breath when that fish came off, the rod shows the bites very well for what looks like a big rod, tight lines for the next video 👍👍
Hard to imagine how many fish could be swimming around there. Just need a double now. The rod is great, it's like a continental rod (15ft), in terms of bite detection but with plenty of grunt like a 13-14ft rod. Tight lines👍🎣
That was a great session 👏, I love catching rays and I don't mind the dogfish either although they can become a real nuisance when there's hundreds of them around, on the holderness we catch mainly thornback but you do get the occasional spotted and blonde ray aswel
They're a great species to look at, similar to wrasse with the different patterns and colours. Not much of a fighting fish, but that could have been because I was in deep water
Dude well done! You were catching rays like frigging mackerel
Haha, it felt like that too. Tight lines👍🎣
That was an epic session Nathan, especially nowadays. Most anglers and You-Tubers fishing the noted ray marks down here in the south of England are scratching to pick up even a dogfish 😂. Great vid and look forward to the next one.
It was much better than I expected it to be, especially after last week's session. Glad you enjoyed it and tight lines👍🎣
Great video mate. Those missed fish are the exact reason I won't go to the dongle, I can't get my head around taking a hook away from the bottom of the bait. Though I can see the benefits of using when fishing for Smooth Hounds that 90% of the time fall to the pennel hook.
Really enjoy your videos as always.
Think I missed them because I lifted in too early, after waiting a bit longer I didn't miss any. I've used it again and didn't miss a fish and none of them were deep hooked. The big test will be the cod this coming winter. Glad you liked the vid and tight lines👍🎣
Walked the cliff top on good Friday and it was chocker down there
I'm not surprised. FB is filled with posts about fishing there
just goes to show no 2 day are the same when it comes to fishing awesome session
Exactly that mate!
That's the kind of fishing I like...water at my feet... proper bait on a good pole ...years back I'd be home tomorrow
...and somewhere to put your chair 🤣👍🎣
@@SlippyLimpets yup.. check out the sky way pier...you park and fish...if you get a rental..mini van it
Another great vid Nathan, pity you lost the big un but you made up for it 👍
I was a bit gutted, would have been great to get a double... maybe next time🤞
If your planning on heading over this way more you will have to get the yak out at ardwell in the summer for the tope 👍👍
It's definitely on the list of species. Guessing that's Ardwell near Drummore, rather than Ardwell bay, or island. (Too many Ardwell😄)
@@SlippyLimpets lol, aye, ardwell near stranraer.
Around ardwell Island can be good to mind 😉😁
Rays are like busses...Don't see one for ages and loads come all at once.. 🚌🚌🚌🚌🚌🚌 🤣
The humble ol dogfish has saved many a blank - they are a blessing at times.
Great session Nathan - I have yet to get a ray myself.
It definitely seemed like that, LV. Worth ticking off the list, and great colours/patterns, just not the most engaging fish to catch. Tight lines mate👍🎣
You'll get one on Chesil very soon, Klaus 🤞🐟
Nice one Nate, excellent vid well done son.😛😛👍
Cheers matey🎣🎣👍
I'll tell you all what's really cool...is being at skyway pier in Florida at seeing a 15 foot manta ray flying out of the water while your watching your pole...it's a great place to fish...
That does sound cool. The USA is on my list of places to visit, just need to get my channel doing a little better before I can commit to it
@@SlippyLimpets Tampa ,Florida is a great place to start your research....
It's a good mark that bfr good bass just b4 the carpark aswell
I might have to give them a go the next time I'm in the area. Tight lines mate👍🎣
Nice to meet you mate sorry for the tangle 😬
Not a problem, Tyler, these things happen on popular marks. Good to meet you too, maybe bump into you down there again👍🎣
Hi nathan you ok mate, well done on your rays. The mark was on fire . All the best from GRIMSBY.
Hi Carl, it was and defo served it's purpose. Onwards to the next session. Tight lines!
Anybody seen any rays !!🤣🤣 nice job mate , complete success, appreciate your efforts 👍🏼👍🏼
Need to change your name to Raymond the slippy lol well done on the new species 🎣👍
Could save that one for an only fans channel name 🤣
Well Ray, oops I mean Nathan lol, very hectic session. Lost count of all them Ray's, not to mention your possible p.b. dogfish. Good day out mate.
Haha, I know, bloody autocorrect! I did too, Arthur, it was almost too easy! Tight lines mate👍🎣
Sometimes days like this really test your back 😂, fishing in the Bristol channel with the current and even a small swell you will get doggies that will pull a 7oz lead right out the feel like a dead weight cod of 5 or 6lb until it breaks the water its a killer sometimes.
You might want to think about getting out on a Boat up at Oban, fishing for Common Skate, the best man to contact is Ronnie Campbell and charter his boat the Laura Dawn, you fish in a depth of about 400ft and use whole Mackrell and Squid for bait, I got one at 147 lbs but I believe the record is 238 lbs, it's an eight hour trip and a great day out but you,ll need about six folk. Should be about a five hour drive up for you but it,s an experiance not to be forgotten,
Forgot to say look him up on you tube.
One of my targets this year is to catch a skate from the shore, but could be worth a shot on a boat, just to get an idea of how to handle them. I'll look him up!
Class mate thats the way to do it a want to try this year for rays like a havnt caught one before either
Head over there mate, it's almost too easy. 👍 🎣
@@SlippyLimpets aye a hoping to get over
Nice one Nathan👍
That's thornies definitely covered. Unlike your fingertips 🤣 it's even worse in winter when your hands are cold wet and squishy.
The cuts are still healing mate. Handling them is like wrestling with a bramble bush
@@SlippyLimpets haha yes, they fight like a bramble bush too, something to be done once in a while when nothing better to do I find. 🤣👍
Eyup Nathan. It's good to see you on a day when you can hardly fend 'em off wi' a shitty stick even if the big one got away. My missus takes the piss when I tell her things like that. 😂😂I'll sithi after. Dave.
Alreet Dave, haha, I bet she does. Makes a change from my usual sessions, but worth getting a few tangles for. Tight lines👍🎣
Cracking session 👌 nice to know where you are tho , understand if u don't let on 😅
It's a well-known mark in South West Scotland
That was a great session. I think the mark is a well known 1 near where i live and i dont actually sea fish yet.. apart from maybe 1s a year spinning for pollock and macies i just enjoyl your videos but il be giving it ago in the near future i think
You live in a great area for any type of sea fishing, lures or bait. Thanks and tight lines (for when you start) 👍🎣
Well done on such a productive session.
The fishing has gone a bit quiet here in Norway, since new year it's been great but in last two sessions I've only had 1. 😢
So even Norway suffers from the dreaded spring lull. No doubt you'll be smashing them again soon enough 👍🎣
@@SlippyLimpets Hopefully, had a few Coalie Minogues but very little else.
Very frustrating as had whole Easter period off and weather was outstanding.
Any idea when things start improving?
Never caught a Ray or dogfish as of yet but that's probably because I've never fished for them 😂 hopefully for 1st doggy this year now they becoming more common. Cheers for the vid entertaining as usual 👍
Think I ken where ye are there slippy ;)
Cracking session and way better than I've done there!
Must have just been the day. I was confused, you said east but knew you meant west. It's plastered all over Facebook too.
@@SlippyLimpets oh I did, sorry! 😅
Aye can be a damn popular spot. Ye can get the same sport a wee bit further east (I do mean east this time hahah), beyond the wee firth, if ye're up fer a 30 min walk. About the same fish stock but very few folk head there.
Love fishing the flat rock killer walk on way back to car tho mate lol
It's a canny mark, given it's so popular, but aye, happy it's down hill all the way back to the car after that hill
The one you lost was prob a smooth hound, small one,, a proper one you'd have know about it. They start turning up about now.. best bait for ums crab but like rays they will have just about anything , worms ,fish baits. And remember to stay close to your rod , they'll have it in.
You might be right, I did feel a few headphones before losing it. I had a feeling there might be some screaming runs so I loosened my drag right off
My favourite place the flat rock
I can see why
Great stuff! Right where can I buy one of those century Eliminator rods…. the ray fishing has been a bit sub par a few hundred miles to your South East this year. I recon with some tips here I’ll get some. Glad you didn’t give up on them they are such a strange and interesting species. Good video
Well done Nathan
Thanks David 👍 🎣 😊
@@SlippyLimpets The next target??
I'm trying to follow the fishing season, but maybe shore caughtbull huss or tope, though I might have more luck with a plaice
@@SlippyLimpets Huss very hard from shore, tope not so bad, but go for the plaice tip Alnmouth.
I'll maybe stick the plaice before the the toothy critters. I do have a couple of marks in mind for the huss and tope🤞
glad you went to the Flat Rock as I mentioned , well done Nathan😊
Me too🤣
Was wondering when you would try the flat rock, busy mark but deffo one of the best ray marks in south west Scotland, when the fish play ball it can be manic
I was trying to put it off, but bit the bullet. It's not actually that bad. For a busy mark.
Good to see, Nathan. Success and new species - top stuff! Did you like that rock? Worth a summer visit with sps? Or too well known/ busy? Still think all that tackle will crunch my knee so I’ll only ever be catching rays vicariously with you. Bring on the return of the pollock! Gonna try MOGarea or up near Oban this weds/thurs just for a wee explore; Kip in car overnight if it’s going well. School hols = freedom! Skye again on 13/14th. I’m itching to get out. Had a few hours at StAs last week and it was coalie central but great to be out with the lurebox.
Take care sunshine; tight lines.
G
Aye, it was good to get them ticked off. The mark was great and popular for a reason, not really my type of place mainly because of the number of rods. Could be worth a shot with SP's but you might struggle with water clarity. Sounds like a good plan, loads of places to Kip around the MOG with breakfast and a shitter at the carpark. Hope you got amongst them💪👍🎣
Chuffed for you Nathan.👏👏
Looks like you found ray central there.😲🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
Well done on new species and I look forward to watching you achieve your other targets.🤞
Thanks for sharing.👍
Loving the outtakes.❤️
Take care and stay safe.😷🙊
Was that your braid whistling or your groin screaming?🤔🤣
My groin and the braid, weirdly both on the same octave 🤣
Thanks as always Ian.👍🎣
I'm guessing that was Balcary flat rock. I don't know if my new knee could do the journey lol. I like Auchenlery. Bit shorter walk lol.
That hill is a bit of killer! Not tried Auchenlarie yet, but it's on the list.
@@SlippyLimpets if you need info let me know. There is one really good mark in particular.
What a session, I see why you only used one rod !
I find I miss bites when using 2 rods and struggle to wind two fish in at once
Have you had a look on navionics at the mull of Galloway? was wondering if there was any accessible marks under the lighthouse ???
I have, and I've posted a few videos about it. check out a my recent lure videos- they're all from the MOG
I stick the tail of the dogfish between my legs whilst I unhook to avoid the dogfish rash! It's like sandpaper 🤣
I'll give that a shot next time, thanks for the tip
@@SlippyLimpets No problem, hope it helps! Looking forward to the next vide!
Fished there yesterday nathan, had 20 casts for 20 fish, and that was enough
As one lad said, it's almost too easy!
@@SlippyLimpets far to easy bud😁, be back there next week 😄, be almost time to hit dunstanburgh with the lures for a change of tactics
