A Very 'Plouty' Day
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 жов 2024
- Baz and the Lynsey B head out of Dunbar Harbour for a Sunday morning trip out on the North Sea in far from ideal weather conditions. Jeff was going to join them for a spot of filming but decided against it.
'Plout' is a Scottish word for a sudden splash or sudden heavy rainfall - now you know!
Another good watch Baz.
Hopefully the creels you moved reward you with a productive catch and as the season continues may you have favourable conditions and bumper catches.
Take Care Skipper until the next time.
Hi Peter.
Thank you so much for your kind words and support.
It means the world to us.
All the best.
Baz.😉👍
It is good to watch a fisherman that is not only well organized but is smooth in his process.
Thank you so much, Arthur. ❤️ your kind comment 😍😁👌
All the best.
Baz.😉👍
Great stuff!
I've just started as deckhand to a wee boat up here in the NW of Scotland.
Your boat is immaculate btw!!
Hi there, bud.
Thank you so much for your comment.
Stay safe when fishing 🦀🦞😁👌
All the best.
Baz.😉👍
Good morning Skipper you obviously love what your doing it’s great to see how clean tidy and efficient you are! All the best in the future , thanks for letting us aboard.
Hi Nigel.
Thank you so much for your kind comment, we really appreciate your support.
All the best.
Baz.😉👍
Hi skipper, a bit of "shake, rattle and roll" for you today. By the number of "throwbacks" you done tomorrow looks good. Another good video and good luck. Best wishes from Dunfermline. Colin
Hi Colin.
Thank you so much for your kind comment and support 😍😁👌
We are so glad you enjoyed the vlog.
All the best.
Baz.😉👍
As a non fisherman I find your vlogs absolutly fascinating; you show a dedication to your vocation beyond what many would do. The amount of young lobsters bodes well for the future. How long do they take to grow to acceptable size? Its a real bummer that the fisheries vessels don't protect the british fisherman avoiding engaging the dubious forein vessels. May I say a quick thankyou to to kind words recieved from yourself and other watchers regarding my shoulder op. Stiches come out this week then 4 more of immobility: I am optimistic about recovery. I thought you were in a race with LH46 for the best fishing grounds😃. All the best.
Hi Michael.
I'm so glad your operation went well.
Like I said before, take your time to heal and don't do anything silly.😁👌
It takes 8 years for a lobster to get to measurable size, which is a long time, and I really don't understand why the price is Rock bottom at this time of year, when the crustacean takes that long to grow.🤷♂️🙈
Yes, I know, it's all about the money and greed of others, but it still bamboozles me🙄🙈🤣🤣🤣
Please take care of yourself.
Remember, slow and steady wins the race😁👌
All the very best, bud.
Baz.😉👍
Glad to see you had a productive day out there Baz! You made it look easy in those winds. Great way to start my day and I hope you have a great weekend Barry!
Hi Terry.
Thank you so much for your kind words and support, buddy.
We really appreciate them.😍❤️😁👌
Glad you've had a good start to the day. It's amazing what omahb can do for your soul.😍❤️🤣🤣🤣😁👌
All the very best.
Baz.😉👍
Well done Barry, that's a couple of good trips in a row now, my fingers are crossed that they just get better from here on 🍻👍
Hi Neil.
Thankfully, we are getting to the time of year where the wee beauties are plentiful, shame that they are rock bottom price, though.😞 But you get given in 1 hand and taken from another. It's a no-win situation for fishermen, I'm afraid.🙈🤣🤣🤣🤣
But at least things are on the up for OMAHB for a change😁👌
Hope you have a great weekend.
All the best.
Baz.😉👍
Loved the video Barry. So sad to see creels full of Lobbies with only a tiny % keep able!! As said before, it's great to see your videos as they bring back so many happy memories of my many holidays at Dunbar in the 50's & 60's. Keep safe M8. All the best, John.
Hi John.
Thank you so much for your kind words. 😍😁👌
Yeah, the percentage thing is definitely due to overfishing, but what else can the guys do?🤷♂️
They are cornered by paper pushers with no clue🙈🤣🤣🤣
They must have been great years as you and others talk so fondly of Dunbar in that era 😍😁👌
All the very best, sir.😉👍
Great one Barry, the sea never looks as bad on a video or photo. Nice to see some lobsters 🦞🦞🦞👍
Hi Richard.
Thank you so much, and you're so right.
You should have seen the sea in between the 2nd &5th fleet... White squall! It was that bad. I had to turn off the cameras in case they got damaged 😱🙈🤣🤣🤣
All the very best.
Baz.😉👍
Good job Baz! Last night I fished about 8 hours out on the upper Great Lakes in weather just like that, and today my 73 year old body feels beat horrible, but I'll probably be out there tonight for some strange reason. Can't seem to beat the wind this year.
Hi Steve.
I absolutely feel your pain.
The longer you're out in that weather, the more beating you get, but you don't realise until you stop, then you think why I'm I so sore🤷♂️🙈🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hope you caught something for your efforts 🐟🎣😉👍
All the best
Baz.😉👍
Good video Barry, sorry to hear Jeff is unwell. What appears good is that one. Your Creels are working great & two, the amount of junior undersized Lobsters your finding is a great sign of a healthy and breeding area around Dunbar. As long as you can survive mate then the future looks very promising for you. That's if a change of government gives you better service than the last lot. Best regards buddy. Keith & Val x😃😊🤗
Hi my bonnie two.
I hope you're both keeping well. 😁👌
Of what I'm hearing, Stammer is going to give our fishing grounds back to the EU so that's fishing knackered for good, then...bunch of numpties with no spin or gumption 🙄🙈
I loved to say I'll last, but I don't really know to be sure, with the way thi is are, and the way things are going, it's only a matter of time before is all done.😞
On the plus side... we've had a ball.🤣🤣🤣😁👌
Take care, you two.
All the very best.
Baz.😉👍
Great video just started watching, what is the double cone shaped net you have tied at the back of the boat up high ? Thanks
Hi Shipmate.
Thank you for your comment.
And welcome aboard, we hope you enjoy the channel 😍😁👌
That double-ended cone shape is a day signal to let other boats know that I'm fishing.😁👌
I hope that answers your question.
All the very best.
Baz.😉👍
About 24 mins in, is that the Cement works you can see on shore. The smoke was horizontal so that gives a good indication of the wind. Love these vids by the way.👍❤️
Hi Peter.
Yes, that's the cement works in the background.
It's a great indication right enough, but it's really terrible when you're in the firing line of what comes out that chimney 🤢😞 terrible to breathe sometimes 😱😞
Thank you so much for your kind comment and support.
All the best.
Baz.😉👍
Hey Baz, well done today. 33,30: beg to differ, Barry, they won't be in a Restaurant near ME anytime soon. The only "Lobsters" found around here are locally caught Crayfish [also maddeningly sold as "Lobsters"] Greetings from Perth, the one in West Australia, NOT Scotland, although that is also on the SWAN RIVER! [Been there, seen that] Cheers, Frank.
🤣🤣🤣 Hi Frank.
I'm sorry, it's still hard for me to take this channel is world wide, I still think about it as a UK channel.🙈🤣🤣🤣 sorry😁👌🤣🤣🤣
Hope the crayfish are just as nice, though🦞🤣🤣🤣😁👌
All the very best.
Baz.😉👍
@@onemanandhisboat Hi Baz, yep, crayfish are nice but I prefer Marron. These are freshwater "Lobsters" [including the pincers]. They taste much sweeter and can be found in most freshwater lakes & rivers. You DO however need a LICENSE!!!!!" to get them. They are generally smaller than your lobsters, with a biggish one being about the size of the juveniles [nearly legal] that you had crammed your creels. And then there are the MONSTERS, very rare but probably on a par with your lobsters, the bigger ones... Cheers, Frank.
'Plouty' I would say it was positively choppy out there! Another excellent video Barry.
🤣🤣🤣 that's nothing bud..you should have seen the weather on the vlog I accidentally deleted 🌊🌊🌊🤢🤢🤢🙈🙈🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nothing to our Lynsey B💪😁👌🤣🤣🤣
Thank you so much for your comment.
All the best.
Baz.😉👍
Hi Barry just after some information is Eyemouth pier any good for mackerel fishing as I'm thinking about going there on this Monday morning cheers from John and keep up the videos love watching them great work mate
Hi John
Thank you for your comment and question, but unfortunately, I don't know the answer to that one, as i've never fished from Eyemouth, sorry.
Mackerel at Dunbar are very spotty, there in abundance one minute, then gone the next, I dare say it's the same at Eyemouth.
Sorry, I'm not much help, bud, but it isn't really my area😁👌
Thank you so much for your support.
All the best
Baz😉👍
Thankyou barry it was helpful I'm from Newcastle down the coast it's been like that down here too if not worse.
I still might come up and give it ago and thanks for your information mate
@johnsimpson3179, you're more than welcome, John.
I hope you get a bit of something 🐟🐟🎣😁👌
All the best😉👍
Jeff made the right decision 🥶i and my daughter where lucky enough to be taken out of the harbour on lifeboat day 30 odd years ago beautiful sunny day, until the lifeboat left the harbour this wimp from the west was freezing 😂😂😂have a fantastic week you two.
🤣🤣🤣 wonderful story, Danny.
Aye, that would be the days before health and safety knackered any enjoyment out of lifeboat day...bunch of paper pushing nonsense if you ask me...killed lifeboat day that did...they can't even take the queen out for a spin...disgusting!😡 and they want people to give them money🤷♂️🙈 doesn't make sense to me... but I'm old, skool 🤣🤣🤣
All the best, bud.😉👍
Another cracking video Barry,seems plenty of Lobsters about, pity most on the small side though.
Quick question Barry do you ever suffer from sea sickness?
Hi Gaz.
Thank you so much for your comment and question.
It's good to see small lobsters. It means they are surviving younger and longer, so their will be healthy sticks for the future.
Yes, I can suffer from buying a sea sickness,it all depends on the type of sea, and it was more when we had our bigger boat, the Rockhopper.
As for Lynsey B, it hasn't even crossed my mind😁👌
All the best.
Baz.😉👍
Another great informative video Barry
Thank you, George.
really much appreciated, sir😍😁👌
Hi Barry another excellent video. How did you get on with the Guy that tied Lynsey B to the ladder.
Hi Colin
Thank you so much for your kind words and support 😉👍
Aye, you should have seen poor Michael's face when I told him what he had done...poor laddie lost a life, I think.👻👻🙈🤣🤣🤣🤣
But all is good, let's hope he's learned his lesson 🤞😁👌
All the best
Baz.😉👍
Baz, I find it impressive that you measure every single lobster, I suppose the authorities would come down on you like a tonne of bricks if you landed undersized ones. Keep the great vids coming mate.
Hi Tony.
We've had it from the area bosses mouth, anyone caught landing any underside lobsters will be made an example off😬😬😬🙈🙈🙈
So that's why I actually measure each lobster twice with 2 different gauges...best to be sure😁👌🤣🤣🤣🤣
All the best.
Baz.😉👍
Jeff made a good call it looked a bit lumpy but the boat handles it well. Good video again.
Hey buddy.
Do you think your sea legs would cope with that?
Thank you, buddy.
Tight lines, my friend 🎣😉👍
@@onemanandhisboat Should do 😎
@anotherangleUK good lad, let's hope we don't find out eh😁👌🌊🌊🌊🤢🤢🤢🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@onemanandhisboat😂
Can't beat a bit of stir or jump in the tide to get them moving Barry
You're absolutely right, Anthony!
Makes all the difference at times.🦞🦞🦞🦀🦀🦀😁👌
All the best.
Baz.😉👍
You're quite right Barry, why do they go after the wee guys and not the big ones.
Yes it was a bit lumpy, but great to see you catching all these lovely lobsters, was that Spitfire along side of you there?
Hi Anne.
I hope you are feeling better.🤢😁👌
That was only a wee bit lumpy, but too lumpy for Jeff🤣🤣🤣🤣 the Lynsey B has certainly been through worse, and worse to come🌊🌊🌊😁👌
No, Anne, the Spitfire is now sold from Dunbar.😞
Her new home will be Troon.😁👌
That was the fiddlers Green.
A fine sea keeping vessel if ever I've seen one💪🌊😁👌
Take care.
All the very best.😉👍
Well done Barry 👏 bit choppy lol 🎣🎣
Thank you, bud.
Believe it or not... that's not choppy, I was in worse on the vlog I deleted by accident 🙈🤣🤣🤣
All the best bud.
Baz.😉👍
Hi Barry on one of your videos you said you had moved the bait bags to inside the parlour did this help the fishing of the pots thanks
Hi Derek.
Thank you so much for your comment and question.
Yes, it improved the steel creels catching capabilities, but the best decision we made was converte to wooden pots. It's like night and day with catches.😁👌🦞🦞🦀🦀
I hope that helps.
All the very best.
Baz.😉👍
Hi Barry thanks for your reply we make our own pots and they are all wooden and agree with you we just use steel pots at the ends of the fleets to try and stop them dragging thanks
@derekmorrison4134 Thank you for your reply, Derek.
We have some lads that do it that way as well.
They say just as well, putting an end stone on, than a steel creel.🤣🤣🤣🤪🤪🤪
Safe and profitable fishing, bud.
All the very best.😉👍
@@onemanandhisboat cheers all the best
Hopefully we will have out new boat ready for the start of next season you will probably no the boat we bought it’s the Windward that used to be berthed in north Berwick ip23
Hi Baz, another 'landlubber' question, with the price of bait why do you throw the old bait away? this was a profitable trip today
Hi Mark.
Thank you so much for your comment and question.
The bait will only do its job in the creel so long. Once it reaches a certain time of decay, it actually has a counter effect of attracting lobsters 😱 feckle creatures, lobsters are sometimes 🦞🤷♂️😱🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes, this was a profitable day, at last!😁👌
All the best.
Baz.😉👍
Your on a rant i could tell you the incident of the fishery vessel at dubh atract, exactly how you stated it boarded us and left the belgium vessel to tow away, while seine netting the belguim trawler towed across one of ropes he had been warned numerous times on channel 16 about the position of the ropes, he got a hold of the rope hauled it up and cut it, we informed the fishery vessel who was nearby they proceeded to board us and not the foreigner, it took at least 4 hours as they went through every single box of fish we had onboard, absolute scum of the earth
Jimmy.
I'm so sorry to hear this sad story.
It's the stories that should be told of these scumbags, as always, our fishermen get treated like criminals, and the criminals get of scot free...it's a damn disgrace of a corrupt industry/ country 😡😡😡 and things need to change💪
Thank you so much for your comment .
All the very best.
Baz.😉👍
This is the question I asked a couple of trips ago what is your opinion of them taking all the hen crabs to make cart seems a waste to me you need the back of the crab and purse meat out of back to give the taste there's only the claws and legs left when they're in done it's a waste of time trying to do anything with the purse
Hi Alan.
We both think a like, bud.
It is a waste.
If you can't use all the crab and what you're fishing for, then what's the point of it all?🤷♂️
It's exactly like shark finning, an absolute disgusting fishery.
I've said before, fishermen look after their stocks and future, and businessmen just want to fish the sea until it's dry.😡😞
Sad corrupt world/ country we live in.
When we take more than we need for profit, we are passed the point of being fishermen. 😉👍
See plenty wee uns about mate
Tons of them Bill.
Great sign for the future.
The lobbies will outlast the fishermen at this rate🙈🤣🤣🤣🤣😁👌
All the best.
Baz.😉👍
@@onemanandhisboat yep deffo mate good sign keep up all gud videos mate and yes your probably reet with lobbies out lasting the fishermen 😂
Barry another great show 👍 few lobsters 🦞 🦞🦞 always great to see 👀 looking forward to your next show
