    Good stuff👍🏻, Holderness is fishing well, I was out yesterday at Cowden and it was a fish a chuck, mainly doggies, but I had 2 decent rays, the guy next to me had 5rays and hound . Also had a turbot. I would only fish it when the swell is below 2 foot tho or you won't catch nearly as much , also I believe it fishes better on a big tide, like at least 5.7m high

    • @theawfulangler
      @theawfulangler  Місяць тому

      Aup Joe. The seas just weren't right for when I could get out. You need 3/4days after the sea calms back down for the fish to return so your timing was about spot on 👍🏼

    I refuse to buy crab these days prices are silly, I just have a look on the beach as I’m fishing see what I can find. As for the secretive anglers I’ve never understood to be honest, if I can advise or help someone with locations I will.

    • @theawfulangler

      Yeah if I was closer to the sea I'd definitely be foraging for bait more. I've got a pump now and if I'm on a beach at low ill see what I can find. Usually I go pillaging low water rock marks for lost leads, but crab will be top of the list now.

    Great little session and some very nice plaice and they taste fantastic and sweet. I am the same as you as I double check everything before I leave and even take toilet roll just in case I get caught short as I suffer with IBS. As for the peelers I know someone who collects hard back green crabs and puts them in his garage in a large tray. He covers them in sea weed and puts a heat lamp above them on a low heat which forces them to peel. He says it saves him a fortune with the price of peeler's these days. Have a great time on your hols and watch out that your toe doesn't get infected in the heat and sand. I have just one question for you, are you sneaking a fishing rod with you? If not then have a bit of a relax you deserve it but I really loved your early videos where you were fishing abroad.

    • @theawfulangler
      @theawfulangler  Місяць тому +1

      Phwoar, with the price of electric I'm not sure your mates heat lamp is the cheapest solution these days either 😂
      There's no need to sneak a rod anywhere, it's a given that a rod is coming with me. In fact this trip I've got 2 with me. Whether I'll get chance to use them is another question, the winds are always an issue on the canaries

    What is it with UA-cam fishing channels.. I'm not here because I'm interested in what equipment you're using I'm here simply for your style fishing or what fish are catching and what locations you're going to I'm not interested in designer gear. I've seen people catch big fish on the worst fishing equipment possible so I'm not interested in your style of rods or how much they cost.. absolutely big fan of the channel been subscribed for a little while.. but again I'm here for the locations for the fish not for the bragging rights of what rods and reels are using

      You are entitled to your opinion but many people do want to know what rods, reels, line and the set up he's using. Like you say other UA-camrs are also doing it and in all fairness he has to cater for others who watch his channel. It doesn't interest me too much either but he does review them and if they are crap he gives his honest opinion. You could always fast forward over the bits that don't interest you buddy. In my honest opinion I've not seen him brag about any rods but maybe it just comes across like that to you and again you are entitled to your opinion. If we were all the same then the world would be a boring place. He's a genuine fella and the only bragging I've seen him do is about his son Jack and rightly so. I hope this message doesn't come across as me having a go at you as it wasn't my intention at all. Like I say he has got to cater for everyone who watches and I don't think he wants it to come across as bragging but we will see if he comments on your message.
