- Once renowned for its legendary catches of Cod, among other species, the Clyde estuary, in its heydays of the 60s and 70s, was the jewel in the crown of Scottish marine fisheries. Today, unfortunately, those days are, for those able to remember, a very distant memory, and any sign of a true recovery is nowhere in sight.
However, rather than dwell in times gone by, it’s imperative that we appreciate the positives, no matter how small they may be, and the Clyde estuary still has a lot to offer the angler. One attractive trait of this world-famous stretch of water, is the sheer number of species that can be found, and within easy reach of the opportunist angler. These species may not be all big, nor as culinarily attractive as a table fish, but the Clyde is an ideal, easy access venue for an LRF approach.
In this episode, the simple aim is to have some fun on light gear and just see what’s about.
Two friends fishing together, well filmed, great rapport, doesn’t get any better than this, cheers lads. 👍
Ye good we video ye that we club is there every Sunday a family we club. Ye allot of small fish there but good fun and comfortable fishing and parking
I'm old enough to remember the halcyon days of the Firth, the Gantocks was a famous mark, and I think the Scottish record cod came from there. Helensburgh and Craigendoran piers used to regularly throw up big doubles, but the death of the Herring fishery spoiled it, no food, no Cod. Love all these wee species you've been catching, anyone seeing them for the first time would think they were some sort of rare exotic. Surprised you haven't caught the dreaded Weever fish!
Nice one again boyes ugly is beautiful well done till next one cheers
Such an excellent variety of species and great banter too ...
superb stuff lads! 👏👏👏
🎣
Thank you mate 🤝🏻
Great video guys, really enjoyed this 🤘🏻
Sometimes I like a good species trip than a specimen trip. It’s a dream of mine to fish chesil beach in Dorset cause that has some cracking variety but I think you beat it. Best species vid I seen for chesil was 9 species in a session. You guys had 10 but I’m surprised you didn’t get a gurnard or a coalie or even a little butterfish and just thought even no doggies, heck as I write and think there’s ton of variety in Scotland, scrap Dorset I always liked Scotland more anyways. Keep up the good work guys. I wonder if you guys could hunt down a shore caught ling round your neck of the woods perhaps a wee challenge is in store for a future video 🤷♂️
Cheers mate.....a ling is a fish we have yet to give a proper go.
Evening gents wow what video liked and subscribed I’m based the very opposite end of the uk in sunny Cornwall where I pretty much spend most of my time LRF fishing on lures only (lerfing) we call it I’m hoping to travel to highlands in the summer for road trip with the wife who’s looking track down family roots would you be willing to give me heads up on the location my target the short spined scorpion there not found in Cornwall and I love to add to my life tally of 37 lure caught saltwater species any help would be seriously appreciated
No worries mate, send us a pm on either Facebook or instagram. Be glad to help you out 🤝
Superb video guys fished this spot before you any recommendations for places to go for cod in the winter that’s not a million miles away thanks
Alex mibbe able to help you with that one mate. Glad you enjoyed the video
The east coast is the best place for cod over winter. Arbroath is really popular but lots of places along the coast. If you go to World Sea Fishing Forum and go to the Scotland sub section you will see lots of posts
Excellent fishing session. Lots of cool species.
Thank you
Love this video. A species trip up Scotland is my dream.
Hopefully you can get it done. 🎩👌
Thanks lads. Lovely video made in an equally lovely part of the world. Your video clearly shows, and shares, the joy of fishing. Especially when it is happening on a clear, calm day in Scotland. I look forward to the next one.
Glad you enjoyed it Chris
Really enjoyed that lads 👏
