yeah that’s it bud. They are always amongst the weed but it’s very difficult to find them when it’s making things almost unfishable. Thanks for checking out the video bud
Great to see your perseverance paid off in the end. So frustrating when you keep hooking weed! Sunset and the view were stunning, as usual! Keep the videos coming, always much appreciated.
@@FISHISLANDTV We’re still up in the Midlands, in Rugby, not far from Coventry, so sea fishing is but a pipe dream..... Until the 1st November when we move down to Cornwall, and I'll have the beautiful blue on my doorstep! Absolutely buzzing to get down, and everything has fallen into place beautifully, so all we gotta do is move!!
From the dike to the lighthouse cafe was choked with weed the other night i gave up in the end. You ever fish the worm beds on the right at secrets its about 100 yards in from the reef out there ? On the flooding tide it is a nice spot but like a lot of places it lights up for about an hour or so and then you may as well head for la braye. 🎣🎣
yeah Iv done well there with worm whilst wading and a light setup. I find it easier then with the tripod etc if the weed is to extreme. Thanks for watching buddy
it seems it’s in a league of its own.. I do wonder if I would have flicked a fiiish minnow down that gullie would I have had that fish ? Thanks for watching bud
@@FISHISLANDTV I think its the movement of the head and the rattle... I've fished the same gully's side by side with FB minnow and pays .. pays catches
New subscriber to your channel really enjoyed watching it and nice catch at the end. I love sea fishing and can't wait for the weather to get better to get back out thanks for sharing big like from me bud tight line's keep safe my friend 🎣👌
Thanks and welcome matey! I'm glad your enjoying the content so far and its likewise here for me too RE the weather. fortunately iv been so busy with other things whilst the weather has been bad... back out soon! tight lines for your next session!
Hi there matey. Thanks for checking out the video it’s very much appreciated! It’s something totally new to me, fishing lures into the surf. The majority of my lure bass sessions would be out wading some flat calm water with a surface lure or pinging out a softie from the rock marks. Ahh the lure box is a nice one isn’t it. I haven’t been using it for long to be honest as I usually use the snowbee double sided drainable lure boxes …but it stores the slightly longer lures nicely. I believe this is the correct link. Any issues get in touch with MrFish and he will see that you get sorted out. www.mrfishjersey.com/collections/lure-trays-boxes-bags/products/meiho-reversible-180v I hope that helps buddy! Let us know how you get on & tight lines for the 2023 season.
it’s here already matey Iv had it for a week or so just been busy with other things… it’s all setup ready to go for some of the bigger lures I got. I got a box of lures to take out with it purely for the longcast and some big messy seas…. going to try a trip mid week before I head to Cyprus
Really like the angle where you talk to camera in the first part of the vid, can you tell me what you use for that, please? Great video as always too. Thanks for uploading...
Hi buddy Thanks for checking out the video it’s much appreciated. I can’t remember what the camera mount is called buddy but it offers up a nice angle opposed to the usual chest or head mount. It’s literally a belt with a GoPro mount. Tight lines for your next trip out!
Thanks buddy I’m glad you enjoyed it. The metal lure with the hole in it is a Sidewinder switchblade. Thanks again for checking out the video. It’s much appreciated!
Thanks for getting back to me. I’ve bought some of those lures in Dublin. I’m heading west to Co Kerry at the weekend for a weeks bass fishing. Looking forward to giving these lures a run in the surf.
Hi matey Yeah it’s great at night although when I have fished during darkness for the bass I tend to use weedless slugs or paddle tails. Il hopefully get a video of that done soon whilst fishing the surf. There is a video on my channel using the “micks Stix” lures at night.. if your interested check it out buddy. Thanks for watching.
it really depends on the area your fishing matey. I like fishing on the beach here with lures and the fly usually 1 hour before low and 2hrs on the flooding tide. Bass are quite predictable and creatures of habit so if you manage a good session catching a few it’s always worth while making a note of the state of tide and timings. There’s a handful of spots I bait fish for them when you can quite literally set your watch by them. tight lines matey
Hi matey unfortunately this one isn’t water proof I only used it as most of the zips had seized already.. it’s now in the bin and I have a new rucksack which il show you guys in the next shore fishing video.
I am surprised at the size of the lures your using, I understand needing the weight due to the weather necessary to get distance but it looks like a fairly shallow beach and I thought lures that size would spook any fish, I always start small when lure fishing if possible and on a beach like that I'd be using the size of lures you could use fishing for trout in the river.
The majority of the time matey il use as small as I can get away with. Sometimes especially later in the year the fish will be on slightly larger lures such as 120-150mm in size… however at the start of the season the bass etc etc seem to be feeding on very small bait so I tend to use much smaller lures then in this video. I have a few small press baits for early next season which I’m keen to try for the first time. I think they will be great!
I didn't know they would take bigger lures, their is a couple of spots here on the isle of man where people fish for bass and its a tope hot spot we held the record for a while with a 66.9 pound shore caught tope, anyway if we have some reasonable weather I'll give it a shot for the bass, I got some side winder lures 20 gram and 5 inches and they look so real it's amazing they swim so well I had a cormorant follow one right in it scared the crap out of me, anyway enjoyed the video and I'm impressed you slogged it out until you hooked one, looking forward to more content m8
oh great stuff your in a nice location there. the sidewinder lures are exceptionally good and work very well here in the Channel Islands in the correct conditions. They are in fact whilst fishing shallow water my go to lures. Thanks for checking out 5he video it’s much appreciated bud I’m glad you enjoyed it.
good thinking bud i had some with single on in the box but last time I used them I lost a couple of fish in the surf so fancied trying the trebles. hard work in that weed. singles next time or weedless from the off. Thanks for checking out the video it’s much appreciated.
@@FISHISLANDTV singles will get you just as many fish,but it doesn't half make life easier unhooking,especially when they are smashing the lures hard,we fish big surf down in Cornwall,great fun on seekers.
sounds great mate there isn’t very many places to fish the surf over here and when it’s good the weed can be a nightmare. il give it another shot and try the singles again. I think I just lost confidence with them after loosing the two fish the first surf session I did. it’s exciting being right in amongst the conditions. il give it another try asap
Perseverance paid off in the end
certainly did matey.
thanks for watching
Well done. Love those waves as they smash in to your body. Great little session. 👍🐟

@@FISHISLANDTV ah, thanks anyway. Not an official gopro accessory then 😁
no worries matey .. if it’s any help I believe it’s one that skydivers use
@@FISHISLANDTV time to do a Google search I think. Cheers
Well done on a lovely video and a nice bass to hand. Just wondering what was the metal lure you were fishing. The one with the hole in it
Thanks buddy I’m glad you enjoyed it.
The metal lure with the hole in it is a Sidewinder switchblade.
Thanks again for checking out the video. It’s much appreciated!

how did you get on mate in the end with the lures ?
i have the same lures in my box, 1:1 ➡ where do you live in UK ?
Channel Islands matey
Hi,Mate just wondering if this would work in the dark?

No worries buddy.
Where abouts are you fishing from?

Weed is such a pain well done for persevering
Thanks for watching!
What backpack are you using if you don’t mind me asking and is it waterproof? Thanks great video.
Hi matey unfortunately this one isn’t water proof I only used it as most of the zips had seized already.. it’s now in the bin and I have a new rucksack which il show you guys in the next shore fishing video.

Make life easier for yourself,get rid of the trebles on the metals,hard going in that weed.
