    What with setting off at 11pm driving with coppers pulling you over, deer slalom course, sleep deprivation, nearly a two hour walk to fish. Nathan, you have my respect for devotion to fish. So a great start with some descent Pollock, so very well deserved mate. Top man.

    Just what I needed - seeing you do a massive drive, be (grudgingly) polite to jobsworth coppers who try and get their 'numbers' up, dodge the local, antlered, car-radiator breakers, and get soggy feet on a hike...why you ask? All to go fishing! You inspired me to get into the same game, young man - thank you for reminding me of the many reasons why. Sea Eagle, otter, red deer, porpoise...and beautiful fishing in beautiful places - no crowds! Absolutely toppa! I wonder how the next day went? Thanks Nathan - stay safe; tight lines. Gary

      @@SlippyLimpets It sure did! I was up exploring northern tip of Skye last weekend - new spots - and i had a cracking day and a half! 20 fish from beautiful orange striped pollock under 1lb to a new pb I estimated at 7lb, as it was 66cm or so! Fat and healthy too! Had a memorable time, yet again. The biggest one was on a Mitchell avocet salt reel , sized 2000 - so it was a scrap and a half! Reel is making strange noises now...i changed to my BG Magsealed 3000 after that. Even the multitude of idiot drivers doing 29 mph in a 6 ton camper home, choking up the roads and causing issues didn't dampen my spirits. Great place - shame about the abuse from multitudes on the roads driving at dangerously slow speed. Saw some mad bikers doing crazy moves at mental speeds too, and then passed one that had crashed near Eilean D castle - looked horrific. Ambulance was there and blood all over the road. Needs addressing, the traffic issue.

    • @SlippyLimpets
      @SlippyLimpets  Рік тому

      Thanks David. It really depends on the ground you're fishing and for which species. If it's shallow then you need a bit of distance but if it's deep at your feet you probably don't have to cast that far. Best thing to do is try casting different distances and letting your lure sink to all parts of the water column until you find a fish. Once you hook one, then try and remember how far and how deep your lure was. Takes a wee bit of practice but you'll get there. Tight lines🎣👍

    @ronhayward596 Рік тому +1

    Really enjoyed that video (tbf always enjoy your videos!) I’m still new to lure fishing - can you explain ‘the count’, I’m assuming it’s the time between the lure hitting the surface and touching the bottom but how do you know when it’s reached the bottom? Presumably when the line stops coming off the reel? Keep up the good work mate!

    • @SlippyLimpets
      @SlippyLimpets  Рік тому +1

      Sorry for the delay. Yeah, the count is a way to work out roughly where the fish l, and how deep they are, rather than how deep you're fishing, especially since each lure has a different sink rate. The process goes like this; stick a lure and fan your casts from left to right and start counting from the point your lure hits the water until it hits the seabed, and repeat until you've finished casting to the right. If you hook into a fish then that will give you a general indication of the direction and how deep the fish is. Repeat this every time you change lure. Hope this helps

    Hello Nathan. Nice score on the music, you keep coming up trumps. Stunning scenery and a very well put together piece of content. Sorry the Police sucked some of the joy out of your trip. I am now torn between dropping you a contribution or shedding dollar on some polarised mineral glass. I'll have to sleep on it. As an affiliate do they look after you? Sorry for the seemingly obvious question but it would be nice to do both, only some of us oldies seek confirmation. Be well and tight lines. M

      Alreet Martin, I'm glad you liked it, even though there wasn't an especially difficult approach. I don't normally do affiliate/sponsorship type things - I like using what I like and not being tied down - but if you feel like contributing, then go for the geegs. I don't make much, but Waterhaul have a good ethos, and if nothing else, their glasses are very good, especially since they're cleaning up the beaches down your way. So, it feels like a good cause to me. Tight lines and thank you 😊

    The police must’ve thought you had some sort of gangster, drug dealer vibe going on 😂Either that or they must’ve thought this blokes mad, driving from Newcastle to Skye on a whim! Great effort yet again for us viewers and good to see you back posting.

      Not sure they have much to do up that way, and a car with an English reg is a prime target. Hope your mate wasn't too grumpy 🤣

    Hello Nathan I do alot of fishing myself and have Watched your video for years and love them we currently looking for spots up Eyemouth for lure fishing would it be possible to share abot info on a good spot to try thx

    • @SlippyLimpets
      @SlippyLimpets  Рік тому

      Hi Dean, all of the spots can be good at their time. On the north side kf the harbour- front of the caravan park can be good, and there's a popular low water mark below the big guns called the canons. All of the headlands on the south side of the harbour can throw up some fish too. Ebb seems to be best on the south. Hope this helps

    @scottishsibber8415 Рік тому +2

    Well slippy that’s another mark gone you really need to stop showing so much to everybody we are slowly running out of places to fish because some people just trash the place with rubbish and wild fires I have never heard yourself or other UA-cam people say please respect the locals and don’t trash the place but eventually people will get fed up like what happened down by Loch Lomond and they’ll get tougher on people camping and fishing sorry to rant but sometimes it has to be said all the best to your fishing and tight lines

      It's a fair point and i hate seeing old fire pits and litter, so I don't mind mentioning it. I rant about it in my wild camping videos and use the mantra of "leave no trace" I'll mention it next time I'm in a wilderness area.
