    The one thing that I find that 'flows' throughout all your fishing videos is your infallible logic to all sorts of situations. One can't fault it! This is a great example - and for me personally - gives me hope as I have VERY rarely fished from a pier and with my age increasing rapidly (!!), this gives me some serious hope!! Brilliant as always John. Thank you.

    • @TheFishLocker

      You and I could sit and talk about things for hours mate. I like to think of myself as a logical person and a "thinking" angler. There is a reason for things, for them to go right or for them to go wrong. We as an intelligent being should be finding better, smarter and more efficient/effective ways of doing everything in life. From the days living in caves discovering fire to modern day technological and medical advances. You have a problem and you find a solution. In my experience the best and most effective solution is often the simplest one. The logical one. Sadly modern people have a habit of overcomplicating things and don't see the purest simplest logic until it is explained to them. Then it's obvious. Haha.

Went beach fishing , his first time out , we all casting miles out , his first cast was a few yards right into the surf , bang , 8lb bass . We were sick , I learned a lesson that day ..

I had 15 wrasse in 1 hr upto 7lb in weight. I couldnt believe it. A local said shed lived there 14yrs and never seen such a big fish before caught from there. Just to prove what you say about not chucking out to France. Really enjoy your videos. Cheers!

  • @ThereisnogodTING
    @ThereisnogodTING 4 роки тому +2

    Another good video John.
    I make my own leads and for very rough ground I make a few with very long wires.
    They are about six inches long and made of soft mild steel wire. I just mould four wires into the lead so they stick straight out of the bottom.
    I bend them to 90° and tip the ends up a little more.
    Not for distance casting but I find that a foot square of wire helps to stop the lead dropping into a hole and snagging up.
    If it does get caught up the soft wire will often bend out and release the lead.
    Not foolproof, (if you can find a foolproof method of getting out of snags you'll be every sea anglers best mate!) but it does give a little bit of an extra chance of getting it all back, including the fish.

    • @ThereisnogodTING
      @ThereisnogodTING 4 роки тому

      @@TheFishLocker Yes, but the trick is using very soft wires rather than SS.
      I find that if you tighten into the lead a lift they come away nice and easy. If one or more of the wires does end up snagged I find they bend out more often than not.
      I'm moving to the Isle of Wight very soon and there's a venue called Warden Ledge that will be ideal for this tactic and it dries out on a long tide do I'll be able to collect any that fail.

    Well done John, chumming down the side with little bits of chopped up fish was a good tip, I'll use that trick in future if I'm ever on a stone pier like that, it resulted in a couple of half decent congers for the camera, job done!! Nice chunky little shore rockling added a bit of variety too!

    • @TheFishLocker
      @TheFishLocker  4 роки тому

      It can work well on other marks providing there is a slack water eddy or something for the chunks to accumulate. Take care mate. 😊
