Shark Fishing In A Small Boat - Blue Shark Fishing Cornwall

  • The shark fishing season seems to have been off to a patchy start in Cornwall this year. But with the bait fish arriving finally it seems to have attracted the toothy fish.... and some giant mackerel!
    Here are links to some of the tackle I used in this video. I hope it helps.

    I was itching to get a blue shark trip onboard my boat, the conditions weren't ideal but I went and got amongst it.

    Another superb video from, IMHO, the best angling channel on youtube, thanks again for posting this and your overall work. Any chance you would consider doing a video of the gear you use and for those new to sea angling, the types of knots and rigs in use. I know there are a million channels with guys showing knots and rigs etc. but half of them have never seen a living fish in their lives let alone caught a fish :) I don't want to be harsh on them but it would awesome to see the rigs and knots used by someone who can more or less successfully target any fish he wants , thanks again

    15:09 those chum slicks are similar a sort of tool for sailors to deal with bad weather. I knew a very experienced yachtsman who told me he always kept a bottle of oil on ship for if he gets the chance to test out how he'd read of people using oil to calm the seas in rough dangerous weather to survive (he didn't sail rough seas so he never used it). I thought it was a bit suspect, some superstition, until I saw it for myself using chum slicks and how all the little waves ripples are calmed, and in rougher conditions especially you won't see white water.

    • @TheFishLocker
      @TheFishLocker  4 роки тому +2

      - It is interesting you should mention that. In the olden days when the lifeboats would go out to try and rescue people from a shipwreck and the waves were whipped to a foam they would tow a huge net sack filled with oil soaked cloth to calm the waters. Hence the saying "Pour oil on troubled waters"
