- I was pretty gutted when I lost my carbon fins but it's not actually that bad. If you haven't got carbon fins don't worry about it!
I show you how I catch, prepare and cook a triggerfish. To see more of spearfishing triggerfish in the UK check out Joe PK's video: • Spearfishing Triggerfi...
I'm down a couple of gopro batteries at the moment so I was filming parts on my phone. It was not ideal and apologies for the portrait filming!
With bad weather on the way I crammed as much diving into the day as I could!
The final session was freedving not spearfishing, that's why I had no speargun.
That trigger had my mouth watering!
Like a dog staring at a juicy bone!
Looks delicious!!!
It was!
Excellent video superb footage with some awesome catches and always a tasty ending 👌👌
Thank you very much! Good you see you like the vids!
I really like this video. The music you choose is really good. The catch looks really 'mouth-watering!'
Thanks mate I’m not really into music so it takes me a bit of time to sort that part of the video. The fish tasted great! Probably because I was really hungry at the time! 👍
You should have left the tail on so that you can use it to hold the fish while pulling the skin away. You can use a pair of pliers to hold the tail fin while pulling the skin with your hand or another pair of pliers. It works great on flounder also.
The mullet tastes even better if grilled directly on the coals for a very short time.
P.S. You need to add little more "spices" to your food, it adds taste and builds character :)
Yeah that's a great way of removing the skin but it came off so easily i didn't need any pliers etc.
I've got a few food allergies so I'm a bit limited. I'm no chef but a lot of fish can have quite a subtle and delicate flavour, spices can overpower that taste. I grow a lot of my own food and herbs to go with the fish. Having said that I have made a few good curries - monkfish and mullet work well. Pollock often goes into making spicy fish cakes!
@@ryane8881 Great videos and I enjoyed the entire video story. I didn't know that you have red mullet in the UK however.
Hello Ryan,just found your channel 👌 l do love to fish with a rod but lm no diver,however l do love to see other people spearfishing and l love to cook.Jusg been watching all your veg growing videos as lm really into growing fruit and veg myself on a smaller scale.lve had an allotment eleven years now and love every minute of it.Keep the vids coming fantastic. All the very best 🌱🌱🌱🍓🍏🍆
That's awesome thank you! I really enjoy being able to source lots of my own food in a sustainable way. Hopefully this year I'll be able to make some videos combining sea food and the veg patch that people will enjoy watching!
That would be a great idea,have a wonderful day Ryan 🌱🌱🌱💚
good video, look forward to next one
Cheers matey
Hi Ryan.
I've only recently found your channel.
I have to say that it's a beautiful world down there.
I live locally to Portland and fish many of the marks you dive ( responsibly I might add!)
As a rod and line angler myself, I will have to admit to some being slightly green eyed with regards to lots of your captures!
Keep up these great videos and above all stay safe.
Kind regards,
Karl
Hi Karl thanks for the comment! Do you remember how you found my channel? I'm a fairly lucky spearo but there is so much down there to see. I'm planning on doing some winter spearfishing so hopefully I'll get some vids up over winter.
@@ryane8881 I look forward to further videos from yourself.
I most probably found your channel,by searching for dorset/ portland links regarding fishing and foraging.
Nice video, mate! Night diving is amazing - different world!
I've just realised who you are! You know exactly what it's like!
Wow the night footage was spooky, don't know whether I'd have the balls for that, it's like looking at the underwater world through a keyhole in the torch beam!! I must say, you eat well, Red Mullet is one of the most highly esteemed fish on the menu & I've heard Triggerfish are decent too & after seeing that I'd be inclined to agree, those fillets looked delicious!! Incidentally I've heard the Queen Adelaide Wreck holds a few Triggers. Good work sir!
Thanks Paul! I need a wide angle torch really to light up everything in front of me. I find night diving really relaxing although if I saw a shark I’d be straight outta there!! When you lie of the surface at night and turn off the lights it can be pretty dark (obviously) but when you move your arms there is an awesome blue trail that lights up. Bioluminescence from microorganisms I love it but it’s too faint for the camera to pick up unfortunately 😔.
Yeah I eat alright 🦞🦀🐟🦑🐙haha. I picked up a couple of pollock as well but the footage wasn’t any good.
The Adelaide is a famous spot and I’ve been there before a few times but I don’t generally target triggers. If you catch one tho give it a try and let me know what you think! 👍
Love the vids Ryan ,coming down to Dorset west bay next week bit of fishing,chesil,and Portland
Cheers. I think it’s been very fishy recently!
Any tips on marks mymt
@@merseypirates if your angling then off Chesil beach can be good or on a boat off the bill is very good!
Great Video :D, its all about a catch and cook on the beach 👍👍👍
Thanks fella, fish tastes better when I've spent hours trying to catching it!
@@ryane8881 haha it sure does, crazy how much you would pay in a supermarket aswell :0
was looking before and everything is so small
@@NorthWalesspearfishing I know what you mean, I've seen the supermarket fish, I think lots of them are farmed tho. The restaurants are very pricey as well!
@@ryane8881 yes farmed but still very small, whole plaice at maybe 30cm at most was 6 quid a kg it said
Nice vid. I'm just starting to look for suitable fins as fed up using heavy diving fins. Had a speargun since 2003, but done little with it despite living in great spots- Swanage & Bridport. Were those Cressi Gara fins? Comfy? Want something I can add carbon blades to at a later date. Also looking at Mares Razor. Any thoughts welcome
Cheers mate, yeah they are good spots. Mine are cressi gara professional and have been great for me. I thought about buying the footpocket with changeable blades but decided against it and just as well or I wouldn't have had any back up fins!
In Australia they’re called leatherjackets for obvious reasons - still one of my favourite eaters. 😋🧜♂️👍🏻
I think the look similar but are a different family of fish? When you’ve spent hours trying to catch your dinner it normally tastes better!
Ryan E Scientific name: Meuschenia australis is my version - I think the UK species is the Balistes capriscus. By the looks of your eating face I think they certainly share the ‘yum’ gene. I have yet to eat and compare.
You won’t have long as they die off when the temperature drops! 😟
Ryan E I do a bit of dying myself when the temperature drops. I’m actually going to light a fire tonight, this weather is depressing me
Great Video and to hit 18m on plastic fins amazing! I did find them hurt my ankles and knee quite badly, hence the reason I invested on carbon. Would cry if I lost them. lol
Cheers mate but I’m a very average freediver! Carbon are great but most people probably buy them more out of want than need!
Nice video as always. What sort of depth were you, ahem, freediving at night?
Haha 😂 8-12 meters!
That's s really good effort. I top out at 12m in the daytime at the moment! Would love to join you some time if you are about. I dive all over the usual Dorset spots
That’s all you need to catch fish/crab/lobbies etc! I’ve no plans to spearfish in the next couple of weeks but if you see me down there in the future I’d be happy to go spearfishing!
Good one bud.
Nice trigger.
Thanks matey I was lucky. I was after bass or bream
Always next time for the bass.
Great video.👍 What do you think about the recently imposed night spearfishing ban?
Cheers Ben! I meant to say night freediving not spearfishing which is why I didn’t catch any fish. I’ve no comment on the E.U. laws.
What's your honest thoughts on the fins please. Many thanks
The cressi plastic fins I was using are great for spearfishing.
Obviously carbon fins are better but expensive. I’ll be getting carbon when I can.
One of the biggest differences is swimming long distances is much easier and faster with carbon fins.
I think some people only shore dive in the shallows and plastic fins will work just as good and will save you money.
