Sorry to hear about the injury fella, that path can be a tricky one in the wet. As for the fishing, I've found that it fishes better on tides 11.5m+ (Cardiff scale). There's a channel that runs along the beach where the fish hold up. Best session I've had included, dogs, pouting, blondes, small eyed and a surprise hound caught on Bluey. Hope you get back to the beach soon! Tight lines.
Lots of the species are close inshore right now for one reason, Spawning. Come June then sport takes off with Carmarthen Bay, Burry port, Ferryside with clean estuary water All species can be found here like tope, stingrays and the chance of hooking a summer visitor, big sturgeon. Quite busy busy session when the weather is good so camp out with the van or pitch a tent.. Just at the end of the M4 motorway to Carmarthen. Be lucky bud. 😅😮
Hope you get better soon Alan. Lovely venue Monknash but as you know the walks not for the faint hearted. Can be a brilliant Ray beach when it switches on. Thanks for sharing
Great video. Thank you. Rest up. I feel your pain...my son has taken mi tfy.....I have the same rib issue...I've been fishing the Bristol channel for 45 years now...the cod have vanished and my last few trips have been disappointing.. Roll on September.. .hopefully the Codling may reappear. Sometimes we have to keep trying . The results will follow.
@@fishingat it happened to me once on that green stuff on the rocks, n I landed on my bk in a flash. So no the score al . It can happen so fast you can't do shit.
This channel should be monetised through a holding company linked to the the reverend lemon. A chiselled jaw like yours needs a bigger audience. We may try speeding the video up to explore our amour. With some input from a story telling consultant you could achieve big things. It's all about leadership. Xxx
Thanks for watching Nick. Great to know that You, Timmy and the Rev can take time from your world tour schedule to help out an old chap like me. I've heard that Kempo might offer his services to both story telling and production and daisy on the management front - It comes down to cash injection and whether you can persuade your fanbase to subscribe. Let's meet up on your yacht to discuss terms and Bonsai over a Jamesons xxx
Hey there Alan, sorry to hear about your stumble, hope you’re taking it easy & are healing well. Another great vid all the same, shame there weren’t a few more fish about for you, but it is such a stunning place to be. Maybe a nice gentle bit of float fishing for wrasse or a pier venue to keep your hand in? Catch you out there matey 😎👍👍
Thanks Lincoln. Going to.Greece later in May , taking the LRF gear, so hopefully can manage a bit of spinning. Watch this space. Are the mackerel in !! ??
@@fishingat have a nice holiday, fishing in the sun…hell yeah! Heard of a few mackerel being caught, this settled weather should help. Hope to get out tomorrow maybe🤞😎👍👍
Done the same thing Friday night after talking to a group of anglers with lamps. Gashed knee and the ribs ache like hell Paracitomoll or whatever will help with healing. Get back soon, bud.
Hope you heal fully soon mate - I really enjoy your videos. A question if you mind me asking. I've been using the dongle recently, but I'm not convinced ny the perfection loop. I've been toying with the idea of using split rings and I'm pretty sure I caught a glimpse of one of your circle hooks on a ring of some sort, do you mind me asking what you were using? Thanks in advance.
Thanks for watching. I've yet to use a split ring on my dongle rigs. You can get them from Veals mail order , sizes 4-6 mm (as an example). If you look at the You tube channel for Mario Asprou , he uses them and explains how he does it - I think about 3 or 4 videos back from his current one . Good luck
If only it was more accessible. I have heart issues and diabetes 2 scouted the area years ago but would love to fish Margam beach, behind the steelworks but they've stopped selling access permits. Shame as it was free of surfers and jet skis. The ships breakwater is hot for massive conger along with the tope, bass, turbot and other species..... There's a railway line access with locked gates but parking nearby is dodgy, thieves, vandals etc 😢😢Stay safe bud 😊

Hope you get better soon Alan.
Lovely venue Monknash but as you know the walks not for the faint hearted.
Can be a brilliant Ray beach when it switches on.
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching. I'll probably leave it for another 3 years before going back. I need to learn how to pack light !
well I hope you recover well Alan, ive been there twice and hate the place, brave boy deserved better.
It's a very scenic venue, I'm not rushing back - prefer Nash point (Macross) down the coast

Thanks for watching , glad you enjoyed it. In deed, keep plugging away and one day (maybe) something decent will come along. Tight lines
Hi Alan, that does look a cracking mark for a session. Hope ya ribs on the mend. All the best from G.Y
Thanks Carl , trying not to laugh, cough or sneeze - otherwise ok !

@@carldawson832 I can remember my old man coming down to see me fishing when I was a kid, he did the same thing. He never came fishing again !!

Almost 6 minutes in and not a line wet yet. God this guy loves the sound of his own voice. I can't be bothered with anymore of this.
Thanks for watching , appreciate the feedback
Alan hope you make a full and speedy recovery, looking forward to more of your vids... Take care.
Thanks for watching. Hopefully a few weeks and I'll be back out
Nice video again Alan, I know how painful breaking ribs are, so take it steady and I hope you improve quickly all the best Bob
Thanks Bob , 4 days in and still hurting like hell !! No sympathy from the better half either. Take care

Porthcawl. Bloody unmarked steps with no lighting or handrails. Slept in the van at Taffs wells, peace and quiet.
@@frederickpritchard994 Thanks , about 6-8 week recovery according the the docs . Still hurting after 3 weeks
Nice one Al!
Thanks guys , hope you're all keeping well and staying safe.
Just think how much worse the fall would've been had you been laden with bass and turbot. looks like a great place to be.thanks !
Thanks for watching - funnily enough , had a decent turbot off the rocks at Ogmore a couple of yrs ago, not one since

Thanks for watching. Brave to surf there with all the underwater boulders etc , I'd rewearing a crash helmet !
