    Great video mate ✌🏻Good to see you enjoyed fishing in Liverpool mate,I am Scouse and fish down there sometimes. Would of been boss to bump into you . We have got some decent size fish in the mersey ,some are are good some days are an absolute blanking disaster it's hit and miss 😬😂😂👍🏻✌🏻

      I'll be down again mate for sure, I'm amazed how friendly most people are on the prom. So many different people like to stop and speak to people, it's the culture of Liverpool. There are some big fish in the mersey for sure, must be rich with food!

      @@thatsabite People have the conception of Scousers being thieves and not nice people mate. It couldn't be further from the truth. We are one of the most friendly people you could ever meet and we would have your back in a heartbeat 👍🏻. Liverpool has had this stigma since the 80's. It's only when people actually come to the city and see how friendly and caring we are that they realise it was all just stigma. One of my first times fishing the mersey ears ago I caught a 11lb thornback ray and honestly I shit myself I didn't have a clue what to do with it 😬😂 . Giz a shout next time your here buddy we'll bring a flask and that for ya's and have a little chinwag 👍🏻

      Sorry I kept you waiting a while pal, I try my best to respond quickly, but some comments slip with the order they come through. I park near festival gardens and walk down. Look on Google maps at otterspool and you'll find car parks around that area.

    I'll let you into a secret with that spray. You can make your own if you buy the dip, and water it down with salt water. That's how it's made I the first place. I product test that stuff for the company who sells it 😉

    • @HeroicFishing
      @HeroicFishing 22 дні тому +1

      Id love to know a little bit about it mate, I’ve been draining the blood and guts and filling my bottle back up with just salt water 😂, rich

    • @thatsabite
      @thatsabite  18 днів тому

      I'll have a look into that, i think i know which one your on about. I was thinking using the lug, blend it into a mush, the whole worm and add it to glycerine so it travels through the water or an essential oil. Salt it up so it keeps well too
