Another enjoyable video, and you summed it up perfectly with the phrase “there’s more to fishing than catching fish”. Keep em coming
Nice video! Once the greatest cod beach on the south coast producing astonishing catches by todays standards I dream that one day the cod will return - not in my lifetime I think!... My biggest was 17lb in 1983. Always at night. Never fished there (Dengemarsh) in daylight. Such great memories. Coldest night was -14 degrees. F. had to keep the bait in my coat to stop it freezing solid.
Wonderful memories there Kerry. Cod may well return and I have a feeling we are in for a cold winter too.....
Thanks for that Matt, cheered me up during these strange times. Lovely day & you caught, so a good day. Take care
Used to fish in front of Hythe ranges at weekends in the 70,s. My mate used to dig fresh lug while the tide was out and we would fish there all night in the winter. Icicles hanging off the nose lol. If the army was using the ranges on a Saturday morning we had get to off before the flag went up or we were trapped there until it came down again. Plenty of cod, whiting and pouting in those days. Best a couple of days after a storm when things were settling down.
Some fine memories Paul happy days despite the cold
Fished there a few times had some schoolie bass close in during the summer months, not been for ages I'll have to dust the rods off after watching you, got some good memories down there.
That’s good to hear in many ways the aim of this video was so people may rediscover this mark again
Great video, first one of yours I have watched, really interesting and a great venue...one more subscriber! Well done ...
Welcome aboard mark - plenty more videos on the channel, mostly bass bits. It’s a bit special that dungeness that’s for sure !
Thank you for posting, never been to Dungeness it looks nice. As you say there is more to fishing than catching fish with the views, birds and different things you can find on the beach, just the sound of the waves breaking on the shore does it for me.
Right there with you David and thanks as always for your comments.
Yes the power station there makes the place nice
Another fantastic video many thanks. What a lovely location to wet a line. Fishing over here on the east coast of Ireland there is a plague of pin whiting at this time of year.
Much the same here !
Loved the first few minutes which really showed why I love sea fishing. As you say it’s not all about the fish although it’s always nice to catch a few.
Thanks Martin most anglers can relate to the environment being a big part of fishing it’s a great venue for all round outsideyness!
Wow...
Best fishing Video
👍
Fished it loads about 30 years ago. Had some incredible sessions. Even used to drive my landrover over the shingle to save the walking! Moved down to Cornwall so it’s a bit of a trip up there now. Great vid👍👍
Love it ! Thanks Jon
Thank you for the upload, I always enjoy your videos and content 😀
Looks a good mark!
Yes it’s still a beast of a venue. No bass today but I’ll be back, thanks for your appreciation glad you enjoyed it today.
Lovely session...lovely day too!! 👍👍👍🐟🐟🐟
Hi Nigel thanks for that, yes freezing in the morning turned into a spring like day later on with water clearing too ! Happy days
Stunning day, catching bits and pieces, great outing
Thanks john glad that came across
Had about 12 sessions there this year. Me and my 9 year old son love this place. Mostly caught whiting and dog fish. Took my friend for first time and he ended up catching a nice size Bass and Dover sole along with whiting and dog fish.
Love your video. Thank you for sharing with us Mo
Ahh love this ! Lots of doggies this year
@@SaltwaterAngler we are new to fishing. Got inspired by your video. Never heard of Dungeness before until saw your video about Dungeness fishing Mark.
It’s well worth reading up on the history of this place , Les moncrieff and others pioneering beach fishing with his springheeled long rods in 1960s .
Thanks for your video Saltwater Angler ,great to see I've just tried the new GRIPZ hooks from Pallatrax ,was able to free safely ALL the whiting caught ,all returned safe and well as I was concerned personally at catching them and the fish dying.I have sent for larger hooks also now, and will also use a further back knot so that the knot does not have to be dragged into the worm baits hence better settup for me
Good tips there will check those out Ant
Nice relaxing style to your video, looks a lovely place to catch Plaice
It is and thanks for the comments
Very informative and well presented video. Nice to see anglers like yourself prepared to share your knowledge and experience. Lovely day, few fish. Heaven. Thank you. Look forward to future ventures. 👌
Thanks Ian , appreciate these comments.
Nice one Matt! Looks like a great venue. I've been to a lot of places in the UK during my 40 odd years working as a Trucker, but Dungeness isn't one of them! Closest I think was a mad night out in Hastings! Shame about the lost Bass - at least it wasn't a blank! Stay safe & well. 👍👍😁
Thanks Trampster, most nights in Hastings are mad ! It’s a real beauty Dungeness for sure
@@SaltwaterAngler Hastings! 👍😂 I'd parked the truck up there one night years ago, and headed to the nearest pub in search of a meal. The Landlord explained that he didn't do food, but it was the last Thursday in the month, when all the pub Landlords went around and visited the other pubs. He said "if you want to come with me for a beer or two, at some point we're bound to arrive somewhere that does food". You can guess the rest! 🤣🤣
Yep that’s Hastings for you
Thanks for that , really enjoyed watching. 👍
Great, thank you
Lovley staff matte as usual fan to watch thanks for the shearing
Thanks for watching
Iv'e often said that if there was no such thing as fishing I'd find another excuse to occupy myself by the water. Dungeness is a favourite , theres always something on the feed.
Good production and editing on the vid, well done.
Thanks Lee
Like you say, its not all about the fishing, though no angler likes to blank, I always return home from a fishing trip feeling mentally energised by the scenery, and especially the sound and smell and movement of the ocean, a natural high I suppose.
Lovely thoughts my man thanks
Nice at Dungeness, fantastic fishing years ago, not so much now, always the chance of a monster, can be a walk from where you park, trudged up there many a time, doesn't help only having little legs.
Hi Danny ! when fishings involved its amazing what little legs can do ! The boils is another option but I’ve never done well there.
@@SaltwaterAngler I haven't been to the boils in years, normally stick to the boats, not been at all this year, closed for a while during lockdown, bought time I had another trip down there.
I always thought whiting a good tasting fish. Good video, Thank You.
No worries , thanks for watching I must give them a try to eat t, thanks for watching and taking the time to comment
It seems all a lot of fish are lost filming. Great video once again.
Cheers Iain ive lost three this year being a camera idiot
Top vid you've proper inspired me to take up bass fishing this year, can't get enough of them on the lures.
Go for it! I’ve made a playlist just for the lure fishing now so that might help
@@SaltwaterAngler Cheers mate!
Love to be able to fish there regularly, just the most perfect beach fishing venue.
Yea it’s a bit out there! , I always think of those winter 70s cod sessions
Would love to try there but it a long way from Swansea matt lol..that view when you hit the beach with the sunrise was quality,,so you all of a sudden get a burst of energy in your step when you start hearing and seeing the sea,,even though you yomp hundreds of yards to a mark and throw up carrying gear it always nice when you cast out..heard of big cod caught there but the best was apparently the late 50s through the 60s then commercial got bigger and you know the rest..
Ha ! Yes it’s worth reading up on big Les moncrief and early cod fishing here it was like dream with the start of modern beachcasting techniques
I shall have a read this evening,,
I like watching people fishing cos I cannot catch a cold😂😂
Wow, perfect area for sea bass.🤩🤩🤩
It’s great I’ve had one every trip ... except this time but there are very big fish that run here maybe at night
@@SaltwaterAngler good luck😉👍🎣🎣
Never had a cod at Dunge but some nice sized dab.
I’ve never had one either , but tended to head west - lovely to get a good fat dab !
Had my best cod from Worthing pier. 11.5 lbs.
Went to Dungeness this weekend just gone, was very busy with not too much going on... Still caught a lovely 32cm plaice but that was it.
Still good ! Thanks for sharing
As soon as i saw that moon high in the sky at 7am, i thought you might struggle bro. Avoid it during the day. At the moment the moon is in the sky during the day around new moon here in the southern hemisphere, but not around full moon. The opposite is true for you. Try 2 days after new moon in a week and a bit, you will do much better if you find the fish. Good luck
Oh yes we rely so much on those tidal movements cheers that’s a good way of thinking
Almost too nice a day,for fishing ! I went there from the IOW years ago,somehow ! the tip came out of my Zipplex ZF250,it was dark and I never found it,I nearly cried !!!
It’s still there Kevin with my pliers buried under a tonne of shingle!!
It was that long ago it's probably closer to Australia 😂😂🎣
Just wondering if you had any further thoughts on your 'stop-gap' rod? I'm fairly new to sea fishing but I'm a seasoned game angler and I bought one of these to cover what sea fishing I do during Autumn through to spring. Just fascinated to hear what you think of it and,also what your next rod will be. Loving your channel - very practical, informative and addictive - keep up the good work!
Hi David thanks , the rod I got as a stop gap is easy to cast , wobbly in the mid section (just like me) two rod rings have bust and the eye fell out of the tip. It actually casts o.k but has a real limit of power meaning you put everything in to a cast on say a half pendulum and it won’t get any more spring from the blank. However the bight detection is actually reasonable with whiting really rattling it. It suits a 4oz much better than a 5. It would be suitable for a stop gap or a new angler but more enjoyment comes from spending just a little bit more I think with Italian conti rods of around £100 being a sweet spot for choice and updated carbon
@@SaltwaterAngler That's perfect. Thanks for your very helpful and prompt reply. That wobliness was kind of what I gathered from watching your casts with the rod. Mine arrived in the post with 2 ring liners broken so I had to replace those rings from the outset. Ive only fished a short session with it on my local small beach. It seemed ok, but I was glad to get the opinion of a seasoned angler on it. I might consider upgrading if I catch the sea bug! Thanks again. Dave.
Join the Daa £10 a year you can drive up that concrete road ..just sign out a key at a number of outlets locally or you can buy a key to the gate for an extra 10 quid ..keep the key for a year
Thanks for that , I’m glad the association got that sorted. Sounds worthwhile
It's a shame there's so many whiting ...cause there's some cracking fishing if you can get through the whiting
It is , yes
Whiting eat everything even bluey on 8/0 hooks
We have been using bigger hooks for them recently and last year size 4/0 just about filtered out some bigger fish
Seems to be more and more dog fish this year,every other cast is a flippin dog fish 😞 😄😁all the very best 🌱🌱🌱💕
Woof indeed , also we never used to get them on lug either !
@@SaltwaterAngler Great channel,like your calmness when fishing 👌🌱🌱🌱💕
One of these days I'm definitely going to come fishing with you, Compare catches
Hi James , ha I’ll be. Up against it when I’m away from home that’s for sure. Some top marks along here looking forward to going again
Got your sea legs? you can rent a boat From the seagull tackle shop, Huge congers been caught on them trips
havent fished there yet, but back in the ninties went to a lot of raves there.
Ahhh the 90s !
Hey, are you related to Mo?
@@Ukmongoose3 yes my brother
Small world eh? I remember going fishing with you at Barcombe reservoir... you had a convertible Golf at the time, I think.
@@Ukmongoose3 hi, blimey that was a while ago, looked at your profile, was that a holiday in Scotland or are you living up there now, i am on f.book same name if you want to talk more,
I fished here before so I clicked on the video amazing content, would you ever fish sheerness on sea by bartons point, if you ever do would love to join you and another subscriber great work.
Appreciate again thanks , those are a bit far of my patch I’m afraid but I might head down a bit closer when the Ray move along in March.
@@SaltwaterAngler i apricate the response most youtuber`s don't respond, well hope to see more great content. keep well =)
Used to go here as a child in the 90's, would pull literally hundreds of mackerel out
Great memories MrMaro! I even thought about trying for the macs it was so summer like towards the end !
Thanks for the video. I haven't fished Dungeness before, but plan to give the area east of Dengemarsh a go soon.
No worries let us know how you get on
Great video - I would like if you, when editing, kept your sound levels the same throughout of music and talking/ambient sounds as I watch this when the girls are asleep.
Yes will do thanks for that! Your not the first to mention it I think I can “normalise”sound so will try that
Always wanted to fish there and if the whiting don’t survive I put them on the hook 🤷🏻♂️
Pin whiting BUT better than a blank
Dengemarsh is worth a go for soul
Worth a go
My most favourite place on earth! Roll on next April (covid permitting!) Thank you for the fix Matt, enjoyed it!
Thanks malc it really is a very filmic place as well as having huge fishing potential
Why worry about covid go soon fishing is allowed
@@jameswilson8820 I'm 350 miles away mate! annual holiday is next April, but thank you for the heads up, did'nt realise we can still fish! Cheers!
@@SaltwaterAngler A pint of cider at the Pilot and a dressed crab from Richardsons across the road will be my first port of call lol.
@@malc380 I was fishing Saturday just gone down at ramsgate pier along with many others👍😁
Just get my PB CONNGER 20 paund from the shore 8000 rell scream on drag system
Good luck
Yes! Get in there .... I’m after a conger this month
Hey, what multiplier reel are you using ? Great video by the way!
Thanks , it’s a SLOSH ! great value strong with reasonable casting ability
@@SaltwaterAngler thank you! I remember looking at one of those and still undecided to go with that or the 7ht. What would you recommend?
Hi Matt, what camera and lens are you using please? Looks like a Canon, maybe a 700D? Good video, as normal and a place I'd like to fish too, cheers.
Good spot ! It is indeed a 700d with a prime 35mm lense ,nd filter. However the iPhone 11 does a lot of the work in videos now too
@@SaltwaterAngler cheers Matt, an STM lens I guess? I have a couple of Eos' and want a video lens, my USM's and Hypersonic Sigma's are noisy, cheers Neale
No a usm it is noisy to be fair . It’s hard to use a dslr manually when fishing so it gets most of its use for b roll
@@SaltwaterAngler Surprising as it doesn't sound noisy on the vid, you need an assistant to shoot with the EOS, that wold be awesome, as I'm impressed with the performance, so will have to try mine with the lenses I have. Cheers Matt, stay safe.
24mm wide angle rather !
How do you get in, ? I went there once and found the gate closed
Walk from the car park or get a key as a member of dungeness anglers.
Another brilliant video Matt.
Your vids are being killed by these constant ad's.
Thanks Chris , the way it works is I let TH-cam choose the best place for ads , will look at that and see if I can sort this out.
@@SaltwaterAngler cheers matt.
I really do enjoy you videos as you probably know by now a sussex man now living in fife. So great to see the old haunts. Gutted to see you loose the bass. Great fish to catch.
Tightlines bud
Cheers Chris the adverts should be sorted now.
@@SaltwaterAngler fantastic bud
Why don't the Whiting survive when only out the water for a short time
Yes you ask a good question, even quickly hooked and unhooked in shallow water ? I do t know a pouting would be fine for instance . Swim bladder size ? Answers needed and a good question Gary thanks
gone are the days you would pull 20lb cod in all day
Can you catch whiting on spinners ?
You ask a good question, there is a theory that every single sea fish would take a lure at some point with flounder,cod from the beach, gurnard and plaice being some I’ve had. However I’d be amazed to see a whiting take one ! Maybe a lugworm shaped lure ? Great question
dead whiting on shore front in front of you at 14mins
Good spot , unfortunate these don’t survive when returned 😧
purchase a drone and send the whiting out several hundred meters ?
Thanks Derek any excuse to get a drone and I’m in ! It will be my next present when I’ve saved up all joking aside 😂😂
@@SaltwaterAngler look forward to seeing this:)
The nature of your rig is surely not good for fish welfare with anything caught on the bottom hook getting hammered in the head by the lead weight!! It is not surprising you hurt a few! Rethinking your rig might prevent that?
Thanks MrTench I’ve never really considered the weight hitting the fish. I’ve always thought the hook as causing the most damage. Thanks for taking the time to comment
