Whiting prepared by filleting and skinning, sprinkled with chilli flakes and stored in the fridge overnight to allow flavours to develop. Shallow fried in 50/50 butter/oil they are amazing. Good to see you back out on the beach. 🎣👍🏻
I been fishing 3 times in my lifetime of 64 years. But i never caught anything, I was ridiculed by the wife, for çoming home empty handed after spending the whole day. I have given up now, but I love watching you guys catching and cooking . Wishing you the very best of fun and health.
Fishing is a process of learning and an experience. It's to get away from life's troubles for a few hours just like football. It allows you peace and quiet and tranquillity. The fact you used the word ridiculed makes your wife seem callous. Get back on it mate. It's a hobby. It gets you in the fresh air.
You should try going again I really wish I could help you if you need any advice I will reply and I highly suggest you give it another go its worth it when you catch
Went for the first time last weekend (beach fishing anyway) and caught a whiting within 2 minutes of casting, technically big enough to keep but not by much so I let him go. I didn't catch anything for the next 5 and a half hours but my brother had a couple. I just enjoyed being out in the open air, cooked up some bacon sandwiches and a coffee on the beach, as it turned to dark the full moon was lighting up the sea and our rods.. Just a great experience, loved every minute of it, definitely going again!
Love it. I am 42.. and have great memories from the age of 8 on that beach with my Dad and Sister catching those... Tilley Lamps, umbrellas and howling winds...
I'm an ex Fisher man due to illness,we were deep sea fishing gone away for a few weeks and I've eaten all kinds of fish, literally everything we caught I've cooked and eaten, whiting are one of my favourites fried in a pan until just over golden brown and crisp, lovely 👍,you just keep fishing, and eating, the big boats throw far to much away, but that's another subject, good on you enjoyed your video
I used to catch loads of them in the Thames as a kid. We used to take the head of and guts out give them a quick rinse in the Thames for flavour then rapped in tinfoil straight on the fire. Beautiful on a cold winter night
If you boys want to join us for a Stingray hunt next year down at Sizewell i'm sure we can arrange a couple of trips once the water warms up in late spring. My mate Alan had a 23lb one in August.
Another top video chaps and I will catch up with you both on kesy beach again one day.The best reason to go sea fishing is to be able to eat what you catch , if you want. to.
Glad to see you back on the beach. One of the first channels I watched and miss you lot on the beach. All the best there must be some intense commercial fishing of your coast.
Dog fish also make great eating but a lot of people can't be bothered to faff about skinning them. However, once you master the technique they make great fish goujons, battered and fried like the Whiting in this video. No small bones with a Doggie either.
Canned anchovy fillets. You get 10 to 12 fillets per can, can costs around 50p, add to squid or other fish baits in "cocktails", with bait elastic they hold up pretty well, excellent attractant. Last for years in your tackle box!
Great videos guys. Pigs liver is a delicious food to eat but you have to know how to prep and cook . it should be left salted for half a day and then fried for 3-4 minutes . Sorry what I didn't mention was the liver should be cut into small strips as well. It should be creamy when you try it . If fried too long it will be like rubber. Chris well done you made a good job of cooking that fish that's how I do mine and other meats ( chicken, pork and seafish. Great session guys.
Awesome video!!!!! I personally really like whiting. As you said in the video if whiting wasn't about what would we catch in the winter months. A lot of people would blank if it wasn't for the whiting a very under rated fish. I feel the same with dog fish there more then welcome on my hook thats for sure. Cracking video mate all the best tight lines 🎣🎣🎣🎣
Cracking video mate. You're right. Get out on a boat trip and some bigger Whiting. Taste absolutely awesome in some batter. Cheers Paul. Tight lines 🎣🎣🎣🎣
Missed you fella and great to see you back out and whiting fillet yum yum very underrated fish and very tasty well done felt like I was there with you 👍👍🐠🐠
Definitely for me goujons are the way to go with the small fish that are our Whitings and Dabs; both are great to eat; as good as anything. All coatings good, tempura best. Amazing how far little fish go as goujons. Don't forget salt and lemon next time. Great video.
Absolutely brilliant video mate love watching it keep them coming I live just down where you catch the smooth hounds i fish that beach all the time and I'll definitely try the Liver next time I go 😊👍
Good to see you back on the beach lads 👍 The liver Would probably work well for the cod too? Or put the whole thing on and try for a conger 😂 Tight lines for the next one Si 🎣🎣🎣
Well done lads,excellent to see you plugging away.I love the catch and cook part keep it up. I will give it a bash when I return to Aldeburgh with my kids and new puppy.The kids are super keen to see how he reacts to a whiting or 3 ….daddy wants to see how he reacts to that monster COD I’ve been chasing 👌🏻😉
Hi Chris Great to see you hitting the Kessingland Beach, As & when I get to the area your fishing location is just the spot ,to the right of the boats as you walk from the Sailors Home Pub & next to that tree trunk. It's been there for some time now!! I think I've only drawn a blank there once in all the times I have visited. I have never tried the Liver as bait but definitely will next time I go out. Keep up the great work.
Great video guys and some fab tip. Im in Norwich so will definitely be giving the liver a try as its whiting city at the minute on the east coast and not much point wasting money on more expensive baits. Cheers tight lines
Thanks for your vids, I've been following your sea fishing for a few years now. Got to say I do like catching Whiting and eating them. I cook them simple, salt and pepper and steamed... Great vid and enjoyed your catch and cook, so thank you and tight lines.
Good man your fishing for whiting, im an ex trawler man and I put the freshest whiting in the frying pan with butter and a little oil, and we all enjoyed it, nothing wrong with it or anything other fish from the sea, a lot of people can't tell the difference 😉
Whiting were the first ever sea fish I caught as a kid off the docks pier head in Newport. Must have been 1975. Delicious :-) My late grandad, who grew up fishing off Hartlepool said they were the sweetest fish in the sea.
Hello just watched this video dare I asked where about in kessingland did you fished? Been there last year in a campsite but no luck for us to do fishing coz the water is so far away. Thank you and looking forward for your reply. Cheers Reg
What's a great video mate really enjoyed that I've got two giant waiting in my fridge about one pound and a half for pair of them caught them down the Humber going to batter them and have time with chips and peas homemade fishcakes with my last lot and they look really nice I did a video on my channel try making some fishcakes with sage and onion lovely whitening fish cakes keep up the great work love the channel and carry on the great work
Whiting or their cousins are a good eating fish here in the States. A nice trick is to use a piece of bright tape on your rod to mark a length for measuring
Im from newcastle and mostly fish for cod off the northeast coast. I myself dont mind catching whiting they dont grow all that big around here but they taste not bad so its worth catching them however colefish on the other hand taste horrendous they're not called s*** fish up here for nothing haha but do you get a good fight just like Pollock and mackerel
Is there a reason you guys don't use deli shrimp? When I was a kid fishing off docks, beaches, etc. we couldn't keep them off when using shrimp! Important to find ones with the shells on as they pull off the hook too easily otherwise.
I fish kessingland all the time, and for a few years now, whiting is all you’ll catch some days. So seeing the hated dog fish makes for a little bit of excitement. Lol
Sorry I'm back again, I fished onshore my friend has a canoe, we baited the line, and he rowed out and dropped the line while I was holding the rod about 300metre out, got bigger fish 😁
It amuses me how anglers try all these different baits for whiting when all you really need is whiting. Just catch one and use it for bait to catch more. Fresh whiting will catch flatfish, whiting, pout, codling, dogfish, rays and even rockling. Just take a little bit of bait to catch the first one then you're up and running. Also, many anglers overcast the fish as they are often very close inshore, especially in the dark or in a coloured sea.
I still eat Liver, like a bit of Liver every now and then, lots of vitamin A, copper, B12, iron and others. Not to everybody's liking, but it's good for you. It's just as good eating as the fighting Whiting.
You can eat both fish however filleting a dogfish is the reason why they are not a commercial target. Where I am from a whiting is a pleasant catch, Dogfish seem to dominate the shores because they are such efficient scavengers of the sea. The real question is would a dogfish sniff out your bait in the water before Whiting would if there was the same amount of doggys/whiting in the area? My bet is doggo wins every time.
Is it just me that hasn't heard of a single one getting caught until this video? They've been super scarce up here but the bass have blown up in population..
Nothing wrong with a bucket load of Whiting !! You only need 1 worm and a 3 hook flapper to get started. Chop the worm into 3 bits bait up and chuck it out, every time you get whiting on. Don't unhook them, instead whack hard on the head then yank the hook out with the guts all ready on the hook cast and repeat. simples

At least you got away from The Dragon for the day though ; )

Ahh, Tilley Lamps! Can't warm your hands by the light of those new-fangled LED things...

Fishing is fishing and anything that comes up on the hook is just fine.I love Whiting and had one at 2lb at Corton last year.
I used to catch loads of them in the Thames as a kid. We used to take the head of and guts out give them a quick rinse in the Thames for flavour then rapped in tinfoil straight on the fire. Beautiful on a cold winter night

Love the honesty of your filming and the fact that its a 'catch and cook', skills lost or not keen.
Good to see you back on the beach Chris. Many good memories of my time in the UK catching Whiting under the harvest moon at Minsmere 🙂
Hi mate nice video and nice to see you back on UA-cam. ....keep up the good work mate 😎🐋🐟🐟🐠
Dog fish also make great eating but a lot of people can't be bothered to faff about skinning them. However, once you master the technique they make great fish goujons, battered and fried like the Whiting in this video. No small bones with a Doggie either.
Sold in the chip shop as Rock Salmon...
Rock salmon is bull Huss 🤔

Used to love a whiting bash with a bass rod.. Great fun!!! But where are the big boys gone?

Far too long between sea fishing videos, shame because you are really good at them. Well done guys.
They looked delicious Chris,try panko breadcrumbs next time,there the way forward,excellent video,just subscribed
Reminds me of when I first started with my grandad all those years ago, great fun to catch as a kid.

Thanks mate, I'd love to come and fish down your way as it's a lovely part of the world, it's just a monster trek for us being in Norfolk. 😊
Are we going to see a cod quest again?
Fingers crossed we should be out end of the month Jason! 😉🤞🏼🎣
@@FromTheWatersEdgeTV that's what I was hoping to hear lads, looking forward to it 👌
What rods do you use I’m looking to buy some new ones and they look great 👍
great stuff dude.. as usual..
Excellent video. Please do more sea fishing videos!
Whiting were the first ever sea fish I caught as a kid off the docks pier head in Newport. Must have been 1975. Delicious :-) My late grandad, who grew up fishing off Hartlepool said they were the sweetest fish in the sea.
Thanks for posting what beach shelter are you using I need to buy one many thanks john
When people complained about fishbones , an old Trawlerman friend of mine would say " Be a quare lookin' fish with no bones" , lol .
Great Video Mate.
One of my favourite fish to eat Whiting. Pan fry or on the barby. Lovely

Looks very much like the Whiting we get in Australia and people rave about those.
Love the Norfolk vids.

Awesome….. Great video.
Good stuff 👍🏻👍🏻
just had liver an onions for me tea
Lovely whiting are
I loved them, they were proper tasty!
Lambs liver is much better than pigs liver for my taste (on my plate, not a fish hook).
The dredded woytin. Lol
Lovely done sweet and sour or curried
growing up... whiting fillet in simple flour and salt n pepper and fried in butter...
Tight lines!

If it came down to cod or whiting on my plate ....i really prefer whiting they taste so good
I saw u when I was walking to school this morning
Awesome 😎👍🏽
Thanks mate! 😊
Pigs Heart from Morrison’s works okay for Whiting and Flatties, it’s less messy than liver and stays on better.
Two good sayings for whiting "if it ain't fighting it's a whiting" and "if it's hooked it's cooked" they rarely go back alive
I still eat Liver, like a bit of Liver every now and then, lots of vitamin A, copper, B12, iron and others. Not to everybody's liking, but it's good for you. It's just as good eating as the fighting Whiting.
Sure is
Fresh Whiting taste really good...

Liver and bacon loverrllyyy
Well underrated fish ,we in the north east get some crackers up to 2 lb , also pull you out the sh-t when the cod aren’t there 👍👍
If there were no whiting out there I’d blank on just about every match I fish. 🤣
great job
great video
my mouth was watering watching the cook up. i think whiting are a good eating fish and are much maligned.
Nothing wrong with a bucket load of Whiting !! You only need 1 worm and a 3 hook flapper to get started. Chop the worm into 3 bits bait up and chuck it out, every time you get whiting on.

Can you do a sea fishing from a boat next......really want to try a boat trip
Ta fishing on UA-cam is good lots of boat fishing
Would love to catch more whiting a) in size ; b) lip hooked ; c) strong enough to go back when undersize. Not round here, sadly.
