Fished at Aldbrough this morning 4 hours up and over.. Had a small bass. A 3lb codling and 2 doggies. My mate had a 4 to 5lb coddy too..Great session. Nice to be catching.
I fished the outfall between Thorpeness and Aldeburgh yesterday afternoon/early evening and those waves were brutal. That NNE wind was howling hard. Caught absolutely nothing 😂
Great to hear your Dad's doing well and nice to see him out fishing again. Last time I spoke to you my dog had not long passed away and I was thinking of getting another. Anyway I now have a Border Terrier puppy 9 week old that fits in the palm of my hand. At the moment hes chewing everything he sees and that's including me. Called him Cookie as he's a right little cheeky monster. Watching a few anglers on here which are local and it seems that everyone is getting plagued by doggies and no other fish is getting a chance. Looking forward to your next session, take care buddy.
Great watch as always and good to see your dad back out with you. Chasing my first Smoothie off the beach and travelled up to fish Bacton in Norfolk on Saturday. Stunning beach, glorious weather, water was warm and good to get out. Weed was horrendous though. Caught nothing. Fished Thorpeness/Aldeburgh yesterday afternoon/evening and the wind & waves beat me. Your rod tips were barely moving by comparison with the waves yesterday. No weed, but not even crabs were touching the bait. But you've got to be out fishing to catch fish and I'll keep chasing for a smoothie.
Cheers Alex good to see you and the old fellow out together again. Them bike lights taped to the tripod looked the bollocks might get some ... take care mate 👍🎣🎣
Not many fish Alex,🥺 but a lovely sunset, 🌅the rod lights look good.😎 But the highlight of the video was seeing your dad❤️. I hope the knee and wrist are ok now🤞. Your son/father craic is brilliant. 👍👍 I look forward to seeing more. Take care and stay safe.😷
I know Ian, but that's fishing. Hopefully get a bit more planning in to the next session and amongst some fish for ya! Yeah it was good to be back out with the ode man again. We have a pairs comp booked in July so that should be a laugh!
Cracking video as usual.. Glad to see ye back on the holderness cost 👍pal of mine is mikes rigs and local always quality rigs 👌.. Great to see ye dad back out and tight lines🎣🎣🎣
Nice to see your dad up and running,fish Mappleton myself, just be careful leaving your van up at the top too late, there's been a lot of break in to cars n vans. Great video really enjoyed it.
Yeah I've heard that on a few of the groups now, which is a shame. I'm always nervous at places like runnels where it really is a good walk from the motor
nice to see you back out with your dad mate me and my wife has had some good sessions there over the last month on ragworm close in shame the fish did not show up for you and your dad pal 🎣🎣👍
At least you didn't blank, just good to get out for a session, nice to see your dad out with you, hope the family's ok, good idea with the lights, take care and i'll see you in the next one mate 👍🎣
Thanks Mark. Had loads of comments on previous videos about lights so thought id give it a go, and so far so good, just need to make it a bit more permanent now
Nice one Alex 👍 I've mostly been wandering around with a spinning rod because dogfish hoard. Felt obliged to try for a smoothie Friday and got just one among the dogs so don't have to do that again this year, roll on winter🤣👍
I'm desperate to get back to the island! I just couldn't justify all the BH traffic for a one night trip lol maybe get through this list of jobs this week and I'll be allowed over for the weekend 🙃
Great video Alex and brilliant to see dad out with you again. Bugger, I was out the same time as you but chose Kilnsea over mappleton. Same conditions as you buddy, was hard work but faired a tad better than you. 3 nice codling and 3 big dogs. All caught on small scratching rod, big rod with big bait did nothing! Have a look at kilnsea, great mark for the old chap, carpark then 25 yard walk and on the beach.
Not sure why, but I have never fancied Kilnsea Chris. Always choose Barry's when down that way and have had some good sessions from there. I took a look at the sea from Hilston, and looked rougher south than north. But that's fishing buddy, could be 50yds difference that makes or breaks a session...love it!
@The Awful Angler when I started fishing I knew nothing about the North east or north west ( Liverpool). They both are exactly the same distance for me as well as blackpool. Some body told me about skipsea and me and my brother headed in my car to skipsea. Obviously we didn't know anything about the get downs for most of these marks at North east. When I got to skipsea sort of town centre shall we say I started asking locals. A dog walking couple told me to follow a certa track behind the houses. They also said to me that it may be a bit muddy but I should be ok. There was also pond of water on this track and when I drove in the front wheels of my car got stuck in the mud. Me and brother got out literally standing in the mud and got the shovel out of the boot in order to get the mud out from under the wheels. Long story short we left the car there and walked towards the village and found a lady doing some gardening. I told her we had come from Bradford and the car has stuck in the mud. She told me to check the next door neighbour called Andrew who had a tractor. This gentleman came out in his tractor and pulled the car out. We even washed ourselves and the car in his yard. All je wanted me get him fish and chips in the end which I did. He then gave me proper instructions as to where is the get downs. We fished at skipsea afterwards and blanked and on the way back to Bradford I drove through Mapleton and the sign for seafront or beach and just follwed them just to.see what it was. Hence I was at Mapleton car park on the hill. It looked great especially at sunset and started going there frequently. However most of the time we blanked however I did catch my first codlin there. Then I began to find out other avenues and to be honest I won't go there again. It can produce a codlin or two on a big tide in winter. Nowaday I normally fish Easington withensea poo pipe runnels hilston and Tunstall and dimlington or mersey river for codlin . My best session was in last October at dimlington where I had three codlins and 11 good whitings. Me and bro also had 4 codlins at Cowden once last year too.
Take it your Dad had Carpal Tunnel surgery? Had that myself in January, still recovering but that's cos' I broke the bugger 6 weeks ago! Just remember as they once said in OFAH "a little Dab'll do ya!"
That's the one Leon, he's 5weeks post op now, and has to have the other done at some point. But yeah, breaking your wrist will take it a little longer to heal. Take care of yourself mate
Nice to see you and your Dad out fishing together again and taking the piss out of each other 😂 also, that's a cracking idea with the bike lights so much better for night fishing for you. Take Care and both you and your Dad Stay Safe, ps How is your Son doing now? Barry (the Wirral)

Sounds class that mate 👌🏽 I watched in horror as the winds that were forecast have pushed out to mid week now 🤦🏻♂️🫠

@@theawfulangler haha yeah it's been very busy this weekend, definitely a wise choice to avoid B.H.
It’s not always about the fishing,you have to make the most of moments like that. And don’t worry,we’ve all been there 😂😂🎣🐟
Exactly Kevin, dad seemed to enjoy himself and he was the blanker haha
@@theawfulangler 😂😂,he’s out of practice 🎣🐟
Them bike lights look the bol##cks nice 1 bud 🎣🎣🎣🎣👍👍👍
Cheers bud, I'm pleased with them, just need to engineer something more permanent that the leccy tape now 👍🏼

Top video as always mate 👍🏻
Them lights are a right idea.
Nice one mate 👍 tight lines 🎣👊💪
Thanks 👌🏽
Great video. It was my first venue when I started fishing
It's a great, easy spot, mumtaz, that's for sure. I've never heard of any monsters from there but just a good all-rounder.

@@theawfulangler I will but off to Georgia in two weeks to do some coastal fishing there. Doc says if I hook anything big give the rod to the boys!

Take Care and both you and your Dad Stay Safe,
ps How is your Son doing now?
Barry (the Wirral)
At least you saved the blank.
Is there a kebab that's not questionable. 😅 I know what you mean though .
Cut the bail arm off you only need the roller
Them rods are not suitable for pendulum casting tips to soft
I did wonder that to be fair mate. Need to get the heavy rods repaired
😅
