I like ya videos Rob, you can see the excitement in you when you’re into something, trawlers are trawling to close to the shore these days imo !! But I would have told that skipper to back off or go round as you were there first so tough ship 🤔 have a great Chris o and looking forward to many more of ya vid’s 👍
Great video and ling Rob. The netting of wrecks has really increased the last few years and its becoming obvious now the effects its having on fish stocks paticular pollack. They have almost destroyed cod stocks by over fishing and now Pollack are going the same way. Netting a wreck over winter targeting Pollack that move to the wrecks in preparation for spawning. They are wiping out complete breeding stocks of pollack and they will now go the same way as cod. All we will have left soon are dogfish
Completely agree mate. The one I saw wasn’t even a local boat. It had come all the way from Newhaven so my guess is he’d already raped his local wrecks and therefore travelled to take anything from several wrecks here. They had been fishing well, giving sport for many anglers as well as serving a living for charter boats and commercial rod and line boats. They’ll now take ages to recover from netting 😡😡
Nice Ling and a fish on my list of fish I would love to catch. With you also on your thoughts of netters on wrecks and just wish there was something that could be done. Thanks for all your videos this year and tight lines for next year.
Great video Rob; its not easy doing the whole thing yaself, I know. A nice ling however saves the day. And with regard to those net fishermen....well, hey they do need to earn a living, then again they are often better skilled at something else... which probably doesn't pay the wine bill. Keep up the good work and hope to see you achieving more pluses in the next videos.
Another cracking video, it was good to see one of my favourite fishing spots "Hippo" on the Millbay side of the estuary, keep them coming, and merry Christmas to you and the other half 🤓
very good video and a nice ling we get the commercial.s trying to bully there way onto wrecks a very sharp knife usually sorts there buoys out at the time or later on most seem to think they own the sea need a nice gaff instead of the net for any ling your going to keep tight lines and all the best Alain
he could of come back once you had finished fishing that wreck makes my piss boil typical fk you im alright does not wash with me if there is nets on a wreck ill go else where if there going to be A R sole then i can be a bigger R sole @@fishingsalcombe
Well done despite the setback mate. I saw on the local SW Spotlight news last night that we are now on the verge of a complete Pollack ban possibly for as early as next year. So once again sustainable rod and line fishing will be paying the price for indiscriminate netting on an industrial scale. It does rather boil my p*ss! Have a great Xmas and tight lines in 2024
Thanks mate, I’d not heard that about the pollack - I’ll look into that. It annoys me that netters completely decimate the stocks but rod and line fishing, which is perfectly sustainable, pays the price. I’ll have to experiment with cooking pout!🤣. Tight lines mate 👍👍🎣🎣
Thanks mate! I prefer my white fish after a spell in the freezer but I’ll see if I can put something on when I use it. Ling is very versatile though. I’ll treat the fillet like cod, the loin like monk and the belly will go for fish pie or soup 👍👍
Just subbed, nice channel. As already said, I'd have stayed on the wreck and made them wait. All the decent inshore marks local to me have nets or pots on them. I'd be interested in a tackle rundown. Are you using ugly stiks and what test?
Thanks for subscribing! One rod is an Ugly Stick GX2, the other is a Penn, both 12-20lb. I’ve got a bit more detail on my rods & tackle on this video. Cheers 👍👍🎣 ua-cam.com/video/a4lDngMhmM4/v-deo.htmlsi=NUhWlvGNbzDC12Ew
Great video again! Can I ask why you chose the Fladen two piece suit? Your a guy who knows so be interested to hear your thoughts. Don't get me started on nets!
Thanks Mike, I chose to two piece purely for comfort. It’s great winter gear with fantastic protection but it’s also great to shed the jacket if the wind isn’t blowing. I’m not convinced about the claim as a rescue system and on many days I would find the one piece too warm. 👍👍
@@fishingsalcombe Great thanks, yea understand the doubts but all those North Sea fisherman can't be too wrong. Bought mine 3 days ago wore it in the freezing fog out on the boat and was toasty. Thanks for reply.
I really sympathise with you. Commercial fishing should be 3 miles off any shore and any rock above water, certain reefs and 500 metres off any wreck within 20 miles of any shore. I saw a commercial take over 50 bass hand lining off a well known reef so who is doing the real damage? They just fish it until its clean
The environmental vandalism caused by commercial fishing is a disgrace. It is illegal for farmers to exhibit similar practices in the countryside. Why should the sea be treated any differently?
I definitely agree that certain types of commercial fishing are archaic. Indiscriminate and damaging methods such as gill nets and beam trawling definitely need a re-think👍
Again enjoyed your video. I would telling a lie if i would say that i was not envying you on that 17lb ling. Wauw. Well done mate. Looking forward to more video's on your channel. Greetz from Stipo from Holland

Nice video bud.I like your style.Keep them coming mate!!
Cheers mate, I’ve got the next one coming out at 3pm this afternoon. It was a lovely day but room for improvement on the fish count! 👍
Nice Ling and a fish on my list of fish I would love to catch.
With you also on your thoughts of netters on wrecks and just wish there was something that could be done. Thanks for all your videos this year and tight lines for next year.
Thanks mate and good luck hunting out a ling for yourself! Tight lines! 🎣🎣👍👍
Brilliant new video! Frustrating about the commercial gear and an important issue no doubt but glad it didn't ruin your day. Fab ling too!
Thank you, you might get to try the ling ❤️
I should hope so! ❤️
Great video nice ling and huge pout 👍👍pout always taste good as fish cakes lol so i remember 👍👍👍
Thanks mate, yes, you can get a fillet off a decent sized pout 👍👍

Cheers mate, one fish is all it takes to make a day great sometimes! 👍👍
Great catch!
Thanks Bri! 😎👍

Thanks Alain, despite my frustration I wouldn’t advocate damaging fishing gear but I hear your passion on the subject 👍

Catch and cook with the ling show us how you cooked it and what went with it,as always mate great video 🎣🎣👍

Lovely ling, well done, never caught one and dont reckon much on my chances here in the east of the channel 😢
Thanks mate, can’t say for sure but I thought they were all around the UK on wrecks and reefs if there’s a hiding hole so you never know 🤞🎣👍

You need to be an MP mate, you’d get my vote! 👍👍
From Taken movie to ling fishing, some plot twist :)))
🤣
Great little video mate commercial boys can ruin our day sometime .. do you see many blue fin down where you are fishing
Every day I’m out mate, the blue fins can be very close in but they’re abundant from a couple of miles out👍👍
@@fishingsalcombe great fish been on the charters fishing for them from Plymouth
Nice one, must be great sport🎣🎣👍👍

Thank you Stipo, it was a beast! 👍👍
Since when did recreational anglers have to give way to commercial? I would have told them to do one ...
Fair point mate, we definitely don’t have to give way but I’d caught my fish and he was going to lay his net regardless.
wreck netting should be banned full stop
That would be a dream mate 👍👍
Don't apologize for your opinions. Say as it is. Our generation don't need to sugar coat any bullshit, just not to hurt someone's feelings.
This idiots should be banned at least 5 Nautical off anything.
No sympathy for draggers of any kind.
Keep it up mate and thanks for sharing.
Greetings from Spain.

Thanks for watching from Spain, Marcel’o👍. I agree, we’re allowed to be grumpy old men if there’s something to shout about! Tight lines 🎣🎣
Nice ling ! Good to eat
Yes mate, great to catch and fantastic eating👍
Netting wrecks, Gill nets! Just another fine example of commercial selfish fishing Greed…no support for them…..
The commercial pollock ban has made a huge difference this year. I’m not seeing any fishing gear on the wrecks. 👍
Any boat that loses gear on a wreck should pay to have it removed because of the harm it does
It would be great to see the inshore waters free of standing and trawled net completely!
I would have stayed at the wreck… you was there 1st tell them sod off ..
Maybe you’re right in that one mate 👍👍
ban all nets there wil be no fish to catch
Gets my vote mate 👍👍
