In this session I travel to the mighty Chesil beach and I was heading for the dragons teeth. After a brief chat with another angler in the car park I changed my plans and headed towards the cottages and an easier walk to the right. Armed with some Kent black lugworm and some small squid bought at Abbotsbury Tackle I headed off for a short session hoping for a cod.
The clothing i wear in this film is my favourite in comparison to anything else i have tried/worn and is available from…

Nice one marko 🎣🎣
Cheers buddy
Hi bud, loving the videos. You do make me laugh 😂. I'd like to meet ya down Felixstowe sometime. Until then keep safe and catch lots of fish. If you wonder who I am, I'm usually the bloke fallen down on the stones due to my legs 👍
Glad you enjoy the videos, it would be pointless otherwise. I’d love to fish further east and have never fished Felixstowe. What is the species to target that way?
Good video as always target achieved even got your trace back cool
Always nice to get the target when travelling so far and I was surprised to lose the rig in the first place. Happy to get it back and dispose of properly. Thanks for watching. 🎣👍🏻
Chesil beach is definitely on my bucket list of places to fish as I've seen some beautiful cod and some amazing rays and other species seems like a really popular place.
It is 18 miles long so plenty of choice and a wide variety of species. The beauty is anything can appear within reason but people do blank. Weather, tide and barometric are key.
Appreciate your swift reply 🙏 does look fast shelving there, is it best high to low of low to high ar is it just a case of if the fish are there you'll either catch or blank regardless of tide hight?
@@robbieallan6522 I personally like to fish the last of the flood and then HW through LW and initial flood if possible. Under 1013 barometric pressure and reasonable tide.
Target achieved, well done Mark. Might have to give chesil a go myself. 😊
Big tides atm so may go back tonight with some modified rigs and give it another go.
Eazy mark you ok pal, well done on your codling . I waa out yesterday n managed a 25cm sole and a 24cm dab on the humber. All the best frim GRIMSBY.
Hi Carl, I’ll be doing a bit of a focus shore fishing for the coming weeks and then a week out in Norway. Autumn is well on the way now.
Well done Mark. Nice cod. Down on Chesil at the end of the week and there for the next 2 weeks so hoping the cod are in. Tight lines
I hope the big beach is kind to you and you get your target. This was the first time fishing in front of the cottages for me and the walk was a lot easier.
Well done on the codling, if that was Friday evening, I was fishing the next one up from you and also had a codling around the same time before the doggies came out to play at night!
It was Friday and I was pushing my luck but glad I did. I had a power boat course the next day and night and should have turned in early. Glad you got one, it seemed like a short window of opportunity. 🎣👍🏻
Great video mate nice codling now you have had your unicorn you can concentrate on tings for the winter😂 that was an eagles nest mate not a birds nest glad you got it out but you did say you might go down to one rod and of course a doggy on the beach nice session mate
It’s an early start on the ‘tings’ but that is winter fishing. I was surprised to reel in my rig that I lost but nice to recover it. I hope you are keeping well buddy. 🎣👍🏻
@@seaangling yeah not to bad busy at work not had time to get out it was my birthday a week ago and our newest grandson was born Friday both healthy so that is good last time I fished your way I caught a rig just like that 😂😂😂must be quite common hope your family are all well tight lines mate
@@nickmann2916 that was over 5 months ago and had slipped my mind. Selective memory in my old age 😉
Well done Mark 👍 beautiful cod mate 👌 tight lines 🎣👊💪
Cheers buddy 🎣 thank you. 👍🏻
Nice one Mark, always a great watch buddy
Cheers, I need to get up to Wales and try some of those marks some time soon. 🎣
Nice mark target hit and even got your rig back 😂 great session !!
I’m not sure which one I was most pleased with, target fish, rig back or birds nest recovered 😂
If I’m completely honest it was a nice compact session and just what I needed after a long hard week. 🎣👍🏻
Excelent
Thank you. 🎣👍🏻
Nice as always mark 👌🎣just getting out and enjoying what you love doing 🙂
It was a very pleasant few hours out on the big beach. I’ve not seen that many out before, the area was rammed with anglers. 🎣
Well done mark
Cheers Gary, did you have any luck over the weekend?
@@seaangling
Yes a bass
Nice one Mark, I keep a plastic crochet hook/needle in my tackle box to help unpick the tight birds nests. Does the job without damaging the line or the reel🙂
I have got a pick for doing exactly this type of thing but this one was very enthusiastically done. 😜
Nicely done Mark.
Cheers buddy, I love the big beach but it can be cruel sometimes where effort isn’t matched by reward but this was a nice short session that kept me busy. 🎣👍🏻
Well done Mark.👍
Cheers buddy 🎣👍🏻
Excellent Mark 👍 I always have a spare reel with me for those occasions. Check out the UFO at 15.55👽.
Did I just catch a 🛸 on film? 😂
There’s another one shortly after.
Nice codLing mate , that was a cracking bit of reel nesting 😂
I went all in and made a good job of it 😂
None of this “little birds nesting” rubbish round here. 😉
Nice one Mark, big baits are not always the way to go. 👍
Absolutely. 🎣👍🏻
Always a pleasure watching your vids mark, cracking codling mate. I will be coming to chesil very soon. tight lines for future outings fella
There have been quite a few out recently and predictably after a bit of a blow.
They are starting to show here in South Wales toooooo
New to your videos but really enjoying! We are planning a session down chesil at the end of October so great to pick up some tips! Keep up the videos - Thehooky2
It’s always nice to get positive feedback and thank you for taking the time to comment. If the videos help at all or just entertain then it is a win/win in my books. Autumn fishing on Chesil can be magical. 🎣👍🏻
next time try walking up the other end by the dragons teeth and try a few casts with a 3/0-4/0 pully and a peeler crab👍 you nearly always get dogs and tings move in after dark! btw there is an old saying on chesil never turn your back on the sea👍
Hi Ross, nice boat.
I had a few cod out from the dragons teeth last year and did 4 films targeting cod at Chesil. Those rogue waves are scary and the winter can send some right up the beach catching people out. I haven’t tried crab at Chesil.
@@seaangling Hi Mark I have moved my boat up to Southampton now,going to try for some Solent cod this winter! I have not fished chesil in winter for a couple of years but last time I had 3 codling on the crab rod and only whiting etc on the lug/squid rod, not saying lug don't work just crab might be worth a try? I have fished that area where you were in the past quite a bit and it seems better for flatfish and rays.
@@rossturner8581 I have never fished in front of the cottages before and I can’t really think why. I’ve always gone Teeth, encampment or Portland end for the deeper water. I want to fish it a little more this winter weather permitting.
Have found the same over the years too Mark, small baits for the win on the codling!! I started noticing it when I was fishing a larger ‘cod’ bait on one rod, and a sole rig on the other……every cod I caught was on the sole rig…….went to smaller baits specifically for the cod and havnt looked back 😉 hope to catch you on the beach one day! 🎣👍🏻👍🏻
It is an interesting thing to try as I think we are all conditioned that big baits catch cod. With the switch to the winter species I hope you have a good one. 🎣👍🏻
@@seaanglingi think perhaps it's the idea that a bigger bait oozes with scent?
Have to check those lines like Asso! as start with a shiny coating which on likes of Chesil with that backwash the line get abraded and once shininess goes line becomes more brittle
Chesil is hard on rigs and there was a lot of movement in the water on this one. I’ll take a closer look when I strip it down in the workshop. I think you will be right but I should be able to see on a closer look.
@@seaangling I had Asso tapered shock leader break at rig top as came in at Cogdon just as come through backwash where ledges is at low water.when checked rest of it could see it was dulled ie lost shine and was brittle. one of the things have to be mindful with using these "modern" monos!
Get similar effect when tying them leader to mainline if not careful esp if not wetted enough as can see line rip it's like a chemical reaction between them!
You really like those afaw Six and baits
They are my rods of choice for this year and I will give my honest appraisal when I’ve fished the full cycle of 12 months. I already know what next years rods will be. 😉
Thank you for another good video,Mark. Quick question, what tip tape did you finally settle for? Cheers.
You’ve caught me out Brian, I can’t remember but I do remember doing the comparison. I’ll have to check.
another good video !! do you reuse your rigs ? or do you change them after every session
That is a good question. I make fresh rigs usually specific to what I’m doing but also carry a few standard rigs. I harvest some components like pulley beads, bait clips etc but line and hooks I do not.
The only exception to this is for some of the boat rigs and the heavier ones of those do get reused.
Well done before you wieghed that cod I said toy self that's got to be 4lb.mark.
It was a nice eating size fish. Big enough to be worthwhile but not too big to feel guilty. It was a nice catch amongst a lot of small stuff throughout the session. I could have used bigger hooks but they would have still stripped the bait. 🎣👍🏻
La pesca artesanal es hermosa
Thank you. 🎣👍🏻
Unlucky on the blown up reel but surely you carry at least one spare reel ?
Usually I do but on this occasion I had removed them to keep weight to a minimum expecting a bit of a walk to the mark. Fortunately the CS’s have enough line to still be ok if you cut some away.
@@seaangling I certainly agree with saving weight especially when you have a long walk along Chesil but I just don't trust myself to go a long session without blowing a reel up .
I was just leaving as you were talking to some guy in the car park. I caught nothing all day. I think I will fish up to high tide and over the top next time. Like yourself I got a 50 mile trip back, To eastleigh in my case and don’t really fancy the trip back at night. Do you suggest high or low tide at chesil? Great film about baits. PS never seen it so busy. I haven’t caught a Cod yet or Plaice. Can I catch a Plaice at Chesil. Tight lines
Different areas and different times of year on the beach have their ways.
The movement from turn of tide seem to switch them on so from HW as it switches to the ebb and at LW as it turns through to flood. I think the reason some prefer the ebb or believe it fishes better is because their rigs present better and it is easier to spot the bites. The flood can be more difficult with swell or wave shape. I had my rod tips very high and they still got bounced on occasion. At Eastliegh I am one junction further on the M27. As a general rule I would say the deeper areas for cod like the encampment down to the cove and shallower for plaice, Abbotsbury running right. I’ve not had a Chesil plaice either.
Thanks Mark.
great video as always, quick question what do you think off the reed chillcheater stuff ?
I’ll be doing a film soon and include the Daiwa sleep skins in the same.
I really like it and I get a lot of questions from people when I’m wearing it. Very comfortable but the real test will be next month in Norway.
@@seaangling yea my massively cheap ( 30 quid ) lidi leggings have given up the ghost 👻 having lasted only 3 years lol 😂 and my even cheaper cost is a bit rubbish too,so as Winter is fast approaching and I live in sunny Wales 🏴 😂 looking to get some new dry stuff. Can’t decide between looking like a Michelin man or using layers, I’m leaning towards the layers idea. So I review would be brilliant 🤩 cheers
@@seaangling good luck in Norway and say hi if the see Billy the fish ( another great bloke who does “ tube “ videos like your good self ) but from Norway 🇳🇴
@@mwscuba have a look at the Daiwa sleep skins for your base layer.
If on a budget I’d go Decathalon layers and military surplus goretex.
cheers@@seaangling
Mark
Who is your supplier in kent for those blacks please
I buy local but the fella I get them from gets them direct from a bait collector in Kent. Feel free to message me if you want details or would like to speak to him.
@@seaangling any info mark on that supplier for those blacks please
what do you use to see your bites on the tip
Gemini tip tape and a fenix head torch. I don’t like clip on tip lights.
Thank you I’m going night fishing going camping and not sure what to use yet
Nice watchable video, nice cod
Was it easy to convert your CP to dial ? Video. O I got it ?
Go Steady
It is very simple with a few considerations. I have another 2 reels to do so I’ll make a short film soon.
