WHITE HORSES (Pevensey Bay) ...MIXED BAG
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 тра 2020
- A late spring session at White Horses, Pevensey Bay (East Sussex, UK), recorded 15.05.20.
I fished this mark, since Langney Point and Sovereign Park (Eastbourne) were too busy. I set out trying to catch anything that swims; however, a much welcomed early sole, caused me to focus on targeting this species. A decent, mixed bag of fish was the end result. The successful rigs used to catch here are shown, with some reasoning behind the methods employed.

Practical, methodical and very interesting. I like very much the way your vids are narrated.
Thank you very much; appreciate that John.
Love the sound of the wav3s
Music to my ears as well!
Ive just found your channel . Love it . Didnt think id find a channel as good as kayak fisherman but here it is .
Many thanks for that; really appreciate your comment stevie b.
Enjoyed watching 👍🏻
Thanks for that Mr LV.
Great video! Enjoyed it 👍
Many thanks for that Gary.
Very nice sole. Haven’t fished for those for many years since I lived in Cornwall 👍🏻
Thanks for watching and commenting Shaun. They're my favourite fish and I seem to catch my fair share of them, which helps!
Excellent session, nice mixture.
Glad you enjoyed it - thanks for watching @Scotland Mushroom Foraging and Fishing.
@@rodsangleuk6283 Also I tried the knot for putting shock leader to braid, must say it is an easy and very strong knot. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Another informative and enjoyable video. Don't quote me I think your shock leader knot is a double uni knot.
Many thanks for that @Bugsy Boy - I'll settle for that!
Would love to catch up on the beach and do some fishing with you Great vids, always seem to be catching😉
Plenty of fish here if you hit it right!
Thank you
You're welcome and thanks for watching @jimmark2010
Nice vid mate
Thanks for that Stephen
I really like the way you produce the vids, particularly the way the cameras track and zoom as you move around. Are you using a tracking gimbal or some post production trickery? I know you're a fishing channel but a short video on equipment/software used would be interesting. Thanks for all the effort put in, they're some of the best fishing videos on youtube.
Many thanks for your interest and comments Andy. Still learning to film and edit properly and once I've cracked it, I may then produce a video on the process - but I don't feel competent enough yet! The tracking is done in post-production - I just have think about positioning the action cameras in the right place all the time whilst fishing!
I WOULD BE WELL HAPPY WITH THAT DAYS FISHING. 😊
Yes - variety and quantity - a good day.
Thanks very much for posting this.....I was beginning to get withdrawal symptoms! I really do look forward to watching your videos. Lovely venue and so few people about. What time did you arrive? What leader do you use - straight through of tapered and do you have a preference? I noticed you obtained your lugworm from Southend - did you dig it yourself or buy it and if you bought it can I ask where from? Sorry for the questions but I am genuinely interested. A great session and another great video. Looking forward to the next one especially since I have fished from Grays Wharfe myself. Stay safe and stay healthy. Cheers. Ken
Many thanks again for your comments and interest Ken. I arrived about noon after looking over other venues. Langney Point and Sovereign Park were crowded, but no one was fishing here and there weren't many on the beach. I tend to use 28lb or 34lb Stern mono for leader line when using 20lb braid or 16lb nanofil. I go up to 60lb (but prefer 40lb or 50lb) with 30lb braid, but find that using thick mono with fine braid causes problems. I don't get on with tapered leader lines for the same reason - also end up with wind knots.
I've recently been digging my own lug and am suffering from doing so now - not my knees, but hand swollen up after doing this too often!
Grays Wharf can be hit or miss this time of year - I prefer it in July, preferably with no weed or crabs about!
Hi. Thanks for replying so quickly. Interesting and informative answers, especially re: leader line. Know what you mean about Grays Wharf! Cheers.
Up here in Scotland only just allowed back to fishing but within 5 miles of home which stops me going to usual spot at greenock on the clyde the close spot I've never fished its further up the estuary rough weeded and crab ridden mixed with mud and sand can have quite a flow also
What rig do u think would suit for flounder( flatties)
Hi Rob - thanks for watching and glad you can now get back to fishing. For flounders in fast flow, I would probably go for a one or two hook running ledger; maybe with pop-up beads to avoid the crabs. Best of luck!
Hi nice vid again u mention a dredger my dad used to work on one in Southampton water many years ago..he brought me home some rag 12 inches and more long .I was scared of the things lol.. just a thought though ..could u try and get some from the dredger workers ? Colin
I know a few bait diggers get peeler crabs from trawlers; so its a thought. Thanks for watching, your comments and suggestion Colin.
@@rodsangleuk6283 those big buggers have ya though lol
couldn't tell me where you got that tackle box from could you please, Nice video, I've just subscribed
Thanks for your interest David. It's a RidgeMonkey XL System Cozee Bucket Seat - just Google it - you'll find plenty of stores selling it.
@@rodsangleuk6283 Thanks, I've just ordered one from Taskers Angling
Enjoyable Thanks.One question ,Why are snoods sometimes long,sometimes short.
I use short snoods for whiting, pout, bream and eels. For flatties longer snoods seem to work better.
Thanks for that John. That's a very good question and one I hope to cover in a future video, once I've got a greater range footage to cover that! In general I'll use shorter snoods for flatfish, being bottom feeders and particularly if bites are very shy and usually if there is a strong tidal pull; however there are times when larger flatties prefer more of a moving bait and snood length needs to be increased, or you just catch the small ones.
It's not an exact science and varies with venue, conditions and how the different fish (or lack of them!) are responding at the time. That's what makes this sport interesting and frustrating at the same time! I catch a few, but often leave thinking I could have done better using different rigs with different length snoods - I try to point that out if I remember to!
Thanks for contributing nemesissir. I tend to do better with shorter snoods for flatties - very short for dabs and soles. Probably depends on the venue and conditions!
@@rodsangleuk6283 I fish beaches with a lot of tide run. I think the way the bait flutters attracts the Dabs, Plaice and Flounder. I do agree that shorter snoods with a SSG split shot to nail the bait to the bottom.
There is a ww2 wreck just off the beach there 300m , the first ship of the war to be sunk in the channel
That's a really interesting fact - wish I could cast that distance! Thanks for watching and sharing Tim.
Well that do 60lb shock lead to 20lb main line mono ??
Yes OK for mono; but too thick for 20lb braid - you get more wind knots if there is too much of a difference in line thickness.
Where did u get the tackle box from
The RidgeMonkey Cozee Seatbucket was via eBay.
Good video’s mate where can I buy one of them rods your using have you a link please
Many thanks for watching Mick. Unfortunately I think Grauvell, who make these rods, went in to administration last September; but there are a few different models from the same 'stable' still available online I bought mine from Veals many years ago.
RodsAngleUK thank you they look nice them rods I have only fished with six and bait
Hi there, what's the name of the rods plesse? Cheers
Hi there Leroy and thanks for watching. They are no longer available I'm afraid, since I believe Grauvell have stopped trading. The model is Teknos Surf XT Due 4500.
What is it with people !?. Could they not see you were trying to fish; Casting lead weights about, - filming ?. Couldn't they have gone to the next groin along !.Muppets !. Nice Sole Rod. 😀👍 (great looking seat box with back rest - where can I get one ?)
Thanks for watching David. Soles are my favourite fish, so glad one made an appearance!
Yes, sometimes other beach users can be an issue, but we share the space, so have to be careful with casting (no OTG or pendulum casting when others are near - not that I try these that often!) and mindful with gear left lying around etc.. Some are not aware of tide state and will settle down behind you, cutting off your retreat when the tide comes in - unless you gently inform them that you are intending to move up with the tide. Swimmers, paddle boarders and the like also present challenges - just have to deal with it!
Quite a few have asked about the bucket seat. Its a RidgeMonkey CoZee Bucket System XL - several online stores sell them - shouldn't have a problem finding one.
Kiteboarders are the biggest challenge for me.
I did once pendulum over a nudie swimmer in NZ, irresponsible for a bloke in his 60s. He sent me a message (F off) and I responded in kind. Nobody got hurt, I got snagged and lost the hook link, karma? I would not do this again. As an aside, it was quite a hike to the mark, didn't go back.
Why do you fish so far from edge of sea ??
Normally I'm close to the water's edge! It depends on how many times I want to move up and down the beach with all my gear @indiana 146.
Dose make me lol with people. All ways get the ones that have to sit right were some ones fish. And the rest of the beach is empty.
Yes - happens quite a lot and with swimmers!
That'll be a double uni knot then.
Nice one - that would make sense!
Hi Rods, iv been a subscriber for some time, love your vids, as i am an angler from the same area, check out my you tube channel some time so e can compare notes. Kind regards and tight lines, see you on the shingle some time, or in one of our great local tackle shops.
Thanks for watching CJ and I do enjoy watching your videos and the collaboration work with Eastbourne Fisherman. Best wishes with the tackle shop campaign.
why are the rods sideways to the sea?
Better for bite detection.
@@rodsangleuk6283 thanks for that, i,m new to this, ive seen guys at Dungeness with their tripods straight onto the sea.
