Fishing for Winter Flatfish

  • With it being somewhat between seasons, the best target for me on the Sussex coast at this time of year is flatties. Dabs had been showing, but not in huge numbers, along with some flounders. The plaice were likely still a few weeks away, but they had to arrive at some point. Check out the video to see how I got on fishing on this misty morning.

    Loving the jet boil, my partner and I have one each so we can cook as well as drink :)

      That's a great idea! They are fab bits of kit especially for longer sessions.

      Glad to help and thanks for watching. I used to teach at a university so I think it’s in my blood to explain some of what I’m doing.

      Well you can beat a lovely hot cuppa on the beach! Just don’t do what I did - put a pan on it without using the jetboil pan stand! Melted the plastic a bit, could’ve been an expensive mistake. Anyway I hope you enjoy your cuppa on the beach when it arrives :)

    Awesome jem. I have a pair of st and both of mine are too quick outta the box. Even on full mag. Think they need thicker oil. Shocking really for a near 600 pound reel. I prefer my turbos and magged rockets. I will get around to them eventually.

    • @ClickBaitGem
      @ClickBaitGem  Місяць тому +1

      I changed back to the original bearings but still might put a drop of thicker oil in them. Running on rocket fuel tournament at the moment.

    My plan for 25 is also to do a Chesil session not just for cod but massive whiting spose to go last year but a storm hit and i ended up with a freezer full of worms. We all blank my last session even though I caught i counted as a blank as the fish were so small

    • @ClickBaitGem
      @ClickBaitGem  Місяць тому +1

      Chesil is always somewhere I love to fish. And a bit of frozen worm is always good for the short tides. Hoping to film down chesil soon.

      @ClickBaitGem  23 дні тому

      I think I was using a loop rig in this video. But it might also have been a three hook flapper.

    If one of your ST reels is fast I reckon the magnet components have been put in incorrectly.

    • @buckrogers2828
      @buckrogers2828 Місяць тому

      They do get magnetised also but they don't like lob casts as the mechanism won't work if slow

    • @ClickBaitGem
      @ClickBaitGem  Місяць тому

      I made them super fast for using over the field. Tamed a bit now with original magnets back in. Could still use slightly thicker oil - running on rocket fuel tournament!

    Wayne and Tom have inspired me back into sea fishing after 8yrs, this is how I found you, nice pb bass the other night by the way 👍 I see a giant grey wheel in the corner of the screen 😀 guessing that's a tronix Pro or vevo beach dolly with the 12 inch balloon wheels? Looking to purchase similar to tackle the mighty chesil beach so any advice would be appreciated 👍

    • @ClickBaitGem
      @ClickBaitGem  23 дні тому +1

      That's awesome! Glad to hear you’re back into sea fishing. And yes, the Tronixpro trolley. Use it nearly every trip.

      Thanks gem, I went for the budget vevor version as splashed out on 2 tronix pro rods guerillla sabotage as nearly made the mistake of going for some sonik vaders but heard they like to snap at the tip.and going to try my 3 wheel electric carp Barrow 😂 it has 6" wide tyres that I will let half the air out of, may beach it like a plonker but prob be ok on the path behind west bexington.....yes i also have the same prob now 50yo i need 2 pairs of glasses now, quite annoying isn't it.

    • @ClickBaitGem

      Awesome. My sister had a sonic Vader rod. Personally I hated casting it and the tip eye didn’t last well. But I know some people like them. Good luck with chesil

    why do you throw bits of old bait all over the beach?

    • @ClickBaitGem
      @ClickBaitGem  23 дні тому

      So the birds can eat it. The turnstones love pecking at it.
