Small Boat Fishing - South Coast - Tope and Rays 1 - Warrior 165
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 лип 2022
- In this video I motor my small fishing boat "molly-moo" over 20 miles to head south of the Isle of Wight and to a favourite fishing mark. Within minutes of setting my anchor I am joined by 2 charter boats and lined up shoulder to shoulder we all set about some interesting fishing.
I have some issues of holding ground with such a strong tidal pull and a small cut that refuses to stop bleeding but the outcome was all worth the effort.
The Warrior 165 is a perfect fishing boat for UK inshore waters and balances size, weight, capability and performance in a compact and manageable package. A fuel burn at cruising speed (18 knots) of 0.8litre/Nm solo with fishing kit. I generally calculate 1 litre/Nm to allow for weather conditions and tide.
Easily launched solo from a sheltered slipway or with 2 from a more technical launch and very predictable characteristics out on the water. Trim is important and molly-moo has the factory additional 5 degree trim plate.
Anchoring can be carried out through the forward hatch but I prefer in most cases to anchor from the Stbd aft corner using a lazy line connected fwd. An Alderney retrieval including ring, A2 buoy and triangle make for an easy evolution. - Спорт
I was in the charter boat next to you lol
Did you all have a good day, I was a little busy tending the 4 rods and re-anchoring in that ripping tide?
I did hear a “doggy in the boat” from that direction. 😂🎣🦈
Yer we all had a good time. Lol at was my mate he told us it was you lol we had 5 top biggest was 15lb A blonde ray a brill about 1½lb about 12 Mackerel And 4 launch sand eel's 5 or 6 dog so not to bad
@@jondallimer8523 I’d love to catch a brill.
Great Tope on a rope, another great vid well done.
Who needs oban with big blonds on the door step, fantastic session tope are brilliant fun
We are blessed with the range of species we have along the South Central area.
Another great video Mark. Look forward to more.
This coming weekend looks promising, might even get the chance to target something bigger. 😉🦈🎣
Cracking video Mark with some very nice fish coming to the boat
We are very lucky to have such a varied mix.
Nice fishing trip well done Mark 🎣🐟👍
Cheers buddy
Fantastic video again Mark
Cheers buddy
Cracking days fishing mark well done mate
Cheers buddy, it certainly kept me busy.
Great, trip again, you really ought to wear a hat in that strong sunlight!
Hat, glasses and long sleeve top were the order of the day.
Yep, noticed you put them on a third of the way through Mark!
Hi mark , some cracking fish there mate well done. All the best from G.Y.
It’s always good to see a good bend in the rod and to heave in some decent size fish. Looking at weather and tides for another go. 😉
Nice as always mark ....send some of that weather north please 😉🎣
It is very settled with high pressure and the possibility of record temperatures this coming weekend. Almost too hot for middle of the day, thinking of an over night session in the cool.
Thank you for a great video, super stuff and really enjoyable! Remember the sunscreen!
I’m glad you enjoyed it, makes it worthwhile filming.
Another great viewing thanks Mark .Not caught a tope yet going out Saturday so you never know and that's the beauty of it eh. Keep it Reel . Take care
If you are targeting Tope this weekend is that in the South Coast area, big tides if you are. Next week looks better with smaller tides making deep water anchoring easier.
@@seaanglingyes south coast, your right didnt realise Mark Thanks ,dont want to make things harder than they need be eh. Just want make most of this amazing weather before go back to work.
Great to see a vid with you back on the boat. Had a couple of good days at that smoothhound mark. Great fun. I might need some more squid off you soon if you have any left 😊
I’m very low on squid atm but have a new order going in soon.
@@seaangling Blimey I’m amazed you have nearly cleared that lot already. It would last me about 5 years 😀. I do not go fishing enough :(
What a great session buddy , you know I love my rays and the ones you caught were stunning , so pleased you got the tope as well great skills and angling . 🎣👍
Cheers buddy, maybe with this very settled weather you could exercise your sea legs and come out for a trip? I have plenty of kit you can use.
@@seaangling Mark that would be absolutely amazing thank you .
Hi Mark. That's a great days fishing, was good to see you again at the #SAC22 👍
Three Tope and 3 rays would have changed my luck a bit if I’d caught those during the SAC22. 🤔
Yes, I did think that would be a great score in the SAC. 🤣
Ps. I always leave suntan lotion on the boat. 👍
@@mikelong8898 same here, sun tan lotion, first aid kit, water, emergency loo roll 😂, etc
Hi Mark what did you of Malcolm's floating appliance then I hear you popped down to have a look 😀👍👍 nice to see you at the SAC 22 you had a good day on the boat that day tight lines buddy might see you out on the water one day 👍👍
I did have a look and Malcolm was very kind taking the time to show me around and even offered the boat to me to try out. 😲
I have 2 routes to go next which is either the Raider 18 configured to how I’d like it or step into charter boat territory.
Good luck buddy with your choice 👍👍👍
Nice to see you back on the water Mark.
Good assortment, those spotted ray look stunning and those tope are so streamlined with cracking eyes.
Look forward to your future videos, and don't forget the suntan cream.😀
Stay safe. 😷🙊
Spotted are so perfect when you see them up close and there eyes are amazing and so intricate. Tope are super fast and very sporting. They scrap really hard and are rarely spent when they come to the boat.
Great video Mark gorgeous weather and some nice fish keep up the videos mate
Thank you David, we don’t get too many days like that here in the UK. 🎣🦈👌🏻
good to see you back mark...
Thank you. 🎣🦈👌🏻
Great to see you back mate, fantastic session. would be great to see smoothhounds from the beach if you get time. Tight lines mate.
There are other videos on the channel showing that but I will be out there very soon on a couple of hound sessions with channel supporters. 👍🏻
It was a great video again Mark 👍 was a great run home together mate 👌
It was a good day all round. Your boat is running well, looking good. 👌🏻
Nice blonde ray . The rod didn’t look like there was much bend left in it.
I will admit it felt a lot heavier coming up and after the initial take I was surprised it was a ray.
Great video Mark and well done on the success. That tide (22:40) was hammering through !! I'll be over in the UK in August visiting my (very) elderly parents, but hope to find time to get a line wet somewhere.... Cheers, Ian
Where are you based when you visit?
@@seaangling - hi Mark, I'll be based in Essex. In UK visits gone by, I used to visit Southampton as that's where my grandparents used to live :-)
Great session for you,can’t beat making the most of the weather to go round there. Good to see you back out there 🎣🐟🦈
It was awkward to film and after a couple of weeks break from it all I think I could have done better.
@@seaangling Looked alright to me,although I’m not sure what those funny noises were 🤦♂️😂😂
@@kevinbuckler1085 special noises for only the chosen ones 😉
@@seaangling 😂😂😂🎣🐟
Another great video. I always have used the lift and drop back method especially in the many species comps I've done and differently on certain marks. Mostly lifting from just a couple of inches to probably 12inches.
The movement can quite often promote a take or even set the hook of a fussy fish. The tide was racing for most of this session and so the tales were quite aggressive.
I've found that when the tide is pulling quite hard tope often give slight drop back bite, because they are going uptide. Ok they like to run across tide the charge off down tide.
@@andycollings4302 it is the sideways run that played havoc with my lines on this session but I’ve had time to think about it and I made a simple mistake easily solved. The centre rods should have had heavier weights and pinned closer. The wing rods should have been lighter and sent further back. I think this would have reduced tangles and something I didn’t think through on the day. To be fair it was hard enough holding bottom.
That's the way I do it. When I'm out on my own I only use 2 rods, and when out with my mate or son we only fish 1 rod each. Maybe put 1 in the middle just to get the scent trail going for 5 - 10 mins. I've an Antares 6 which is a fraction wider than a warrior so charging tope aren't quite as problematic.
Mark I really like to go fishing with you some time soon
Hi Marc, where are you located?
Great session Mark, can i ask why you didn't handle the doggie???
I had caught quite a few and didn’t film them all. They are easier to unhook using the T-bar.
Out of interest what sped was that tide running at?
Most likely about 1.5 knots
What boat rods are you using these days Mark?
I am using the Ugly Stik elites, 20/30 & 50lb, 2 of each.
