Light Rock Fishing - Brixham - Memorable May Species Session
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 гру 2024
- This one is from a really memorable session I had last week down at Brixham. I'd met Dan (@FishingAroundBudleigh) down there in the hope of catching rock cook wrasse, which are around in decent numbers in the Torbay area and seemingly very aggressive at this time of year. We got our target, but I also managed to pick up some other special little species along with a few Brixham regulars to make it a session to rememember!
We could see lots of fish but they were surprisingly picky, so we had to work hard for our fish. I had most success with a 1.5g cheb rig and brown mini isome, a dding a tanago stinger to get my rock cooks!
Dont forget we've got the Big Lerf Fundraiser event in Plymouth in July, would be great to see some of you there! Check out the link below for more info :)

Watching your videos got me and my dad into lrf fishing and my gosh what a fun way of fishing , I love that there's so many species to catch down in brixham and it's fun to fight the larger fish on such a small light rod
Great to hear my videos have provided some inspiration mate, thank you! Brixham is such a brilliant venue isn't it, especially for LRF 👍🎣
Thanks Rich, crackin' good session, love the underwater from FAB.
Cheers mate, yeah the underwater footage is great isn't it?!
So Good! Been waiting for this since that day! Amazing fishing! Masterclass!!
Haha, cheers mate, glad you enjoyed it 🙂 and thanks for the awesome underwater footage 👌🎣
Amazing video. Really nice filming of the fish and so many species!
Thanks very much, thank you for watching! 👍🎣
Aren't those rock cooks beautiful!
Been dabbling in lrf after work for a couple of hours each night.
Its great fun.
Thanks for getting me interested
In the first place
👍
They truly are beautiful aren't they mate? Great to hear you're enjoying some LRF and it's so nice to hear i have had a part to play in you getting into it! Tight lines mate 👍🎣
@@DevonLerfer respect is due sir.
Ps:
The larger text is much easier to read in your videos
Always a pleasure to watch mate. Looks like an excellent spot there!
Thanks mate! Its a cracking spot, if you ever find yourself over this way I'd be happy to point you towards some of the best mini species lairs in Devon 😁
@@DevonLerfer I may well take you up on that in the future Rich! Thanks mate,
Smashed it mate! Cracking session and some real little beauties there! I think I would be using one of my inexpensive rock fish rods under there not your not so inexpensive Japanese jobby!!! 😂🤣
Great video mate as per usual 😉🎣👌
Thanks mate! Haha it does my eyes water a bit when I catch the "roof" with that rod 😂
@@DevonLerfer heart in mouth fishing!!!! 😱😱😱😂🤣👍
Raised the bar with this video mate!
Cheers mate! 😁🎣
Fantastic! That pier has become a real mini-species magnet. Several there on my hit list. Feel a road trip coming on! Cheers 😁
Cheers mate. Yeah its a cracking little spot, so much living under there! 👍🎣
Cracking selection of fish. Great fishing and thanks for putting up the video 👍
Cheers Alan, much appreciated, my pleasure 🙂🎣
Thats some awesome fishing there, with some stunning fish, well well done and great video
Thanks mate, those rock cook are little beauties aren't they?! Any sign of any of other rarer wrasse species down that way yet? 👍
@@DevonLerfer have heard of a Baillons coming off the breakwater last week, the may bloom that hit a couple of days after you fished it has finally cleared, so hopefully some better things will start to come in.
And yep they are stunning fish and came be quite feisty too.
@@bobbananas289 thats interesting mate, good to hear! Might see you down there at some point. Tight lines 👍🎣
What an amazing stealthy fishing session, didn’t look like there was much room under that structure, very skilful fishing, those Blue wrasse are beautiful !
( who even knew about them )
they look like something out of an aquarium,
And please excuse my ignorance but is a Pout a small Pouting, they look a lovely gold colour aswell , looked like you couldn’t miss every cast a fish 🐠 🎣👍
Thanks Stephen, much appreciated! Its quite a tricky little spot, and quite limited for space as you say, but well worth the effort for the potential rewards! The rock cook wrasse are beautiful aren't they, I find it hard to believe they live around our shores.
Pout is just a shortened name for pouting, the ones we find amongst the weed and rocks do tend to take on a bit of a golden/coppery color though! Thanks again and tight lines 👍🎣
Nice fishing 🎣👍
Thanks mate! 👍🎣
Nice one again cheers
Cheer Kenneth, thanks for watching! 👍🎣
Awesome vid! Some very cool fish there. I'm on holiday in Weymouth this weekend and will have some time to fish - any tips on marks and lures? Would love to catch my first wrasse or bass or pollock (or anything really!). Cheers!
Thanks mate! Ah Weymouth is a great LRF venue. Its a bit early in the year for the best fishing but you can't go wrong heading for either the pleasure pier or stone pier, I've had lots of wrasse and pollock, particularly from the stone pier. Not sure on bass although I do know that they can be caught along the beach there. Tight lines mate 👍
@@DevonLerfer thanks a bunch!
I've been there a few times over the last 3 years and i fish just before that spot near the steps and I fish just off the wall as the tide goes out and there's always some decent 2-4lb wrasse and strap conger to be caught down there
Nice one. Yeah I've had some good wrassing from there mate, including my pb! I had a session last year where it was non stop action for a couple of hours with every fish over 2lbs, the biggest going 4lb 3oz 🙂🎣
@@DevonLerfer got my wrasse today but on a heavy carp rod , had me going everywhere . They might look small but they put up a hell of a fight . Do you happen to know what fish are running through brixham at the moment.
@@leightoncampbell8233 nice one, they really do scrap don't they?! I've not been down to Brixham for a little while but i think all the usual suspects are about. I may head down for a few hours on Thursday to see what's about 🎣
@@DevonLerfer I've seen many people using the Berkley gulp lure that immitates rag worm, do you know if it's any good?
@@leightoncampbell8233 its very good indeed!
are you nipping the barb down on the decoy hooks.?
@@brianwalton3016 yes, it makes unhooking so much easier and reduces the likelihood of them snapping 👍
Well done mate! I definitely need to dust off my LRF kit again and head out there again soon it been nearly 3 months since my last saltwater LRF trip🫣😅 looks like the fishing starting to pick up again now
Thanks mate! Yeah looks like there's a bit of the dreaded may bloom about at the moment but things should really kick on once that's gone 🤞🎣
