  • Travelling far offshore, solo small boat fishing can be exciting and challenging. Autumn and Winter can offer some wonderful wreck fishing and this was a prime example. Trying a new location I had an incredible day fishing with lures and some monster fish with bait. Pollack, Coalfish, Ling and HUGE Conger.
    Here are links to the heavier gear I was using. I hope it helps:

But by careful placement of the camera and me and my rod, in relation to the frame where it was hung for the photo, my mates and i were able to make it look 8-9ft in length. Just another fisherman tale. Not sure if there's a photo of the thing as it really looked. Might be one somewhere. Atb.

So until next year when I can get out again I shall carry on watching your excellent videos...... while waiting for the opp I have stocked up with a new rod and reel after watching the fishlocker work shop reviews and some new soft lures - please keep doing your videos as it is the nearest I can get to actually fishing until I'm back on my feet thank you and your family take care Mike

      Hi Mike - good luck with the Hip, if it's anything like mine, it should give you a new lease of life. I was told I had Aseptic necrosis of both hips back in the early 90's - luckily only the right side ever gave me serious trouble. I was too young to have anything done back then so had to wait until Autumn 2007 when they decided I couldn't go on as I was, so did a 'Birmingham' (name of the joint type) replacement. Since then, once it had healed and I "got back on my feet" it has been brilliant! 13 years ago now and I get an occasional slight twinge, but I'm walking better now than I was before being diagnosed. I hope yours turns out with the same amount of success! 👍👍

Hopefully next year I will be able to get out and get some great fish, For jigging I mostly use jigs in the 12 to 16 ounce size. Some times I have to move up to 21 ounce jig , I tend to use heavy jigs due to how many people are on the boat so it is better if I m straight possible to cut down on tangles

      As a city dweller in central England and with vivid memories of river fishing as a kid I visited Weymouth some years ago and dabbled in a bit of mackerel fishing.....don’t remember much of the fishing as I had my head over the side🤮 the whole time.

    I haven't watched all your vids yet, but one of the things I have noticed as a retired mariner, is that you always have ' a weather eye' out when boat fishing. You are constantly looking out for approaching vessels etc. As for the fishing and foraging , lovely stuff.

    What a brilliant days fishing you've had John that's certainly stocked a few freezers for winter. Amazed at the size of that Coal fish, not seen one that but before. The best fish of the day for me was that finger closely followed by the ling, not because it but your thumb but it was a really good size, wouldn't mind seeing how your wife or Jim will cook it. Next time you catch a decent size long can you do a gutting and prep video please.
