Looking forward to hopefully many more to come. Good job….

what your doing is illegal .hope.enviromental agency are watching this
@@stevengardner81 nope it's not they've seen it and my net is the right size mate so do your research before leaving negative comments👍
@@FORAGEFEAST-m1c it's not exactly sport?? try useing a rod and reel
@@stevengardner81 not doing it for sport doing it food 👍
Either right or wrong you are certainly nailing them . Plenty of fish for the family and those bass are tasty .
Well done mate, love you videos.
@@bout20031 Thanks very much mate!👍
Have you checked with Cornwall IFCA that this is legal ?
River and Estuarine Fishing Nets Byelaw 2017
Cornwall IFCA.??
Good point,. according to IFCA website it's a bit of a grey area. www.cornwall-ifca.gov.uk/netting '' Prohibition of netting in Cornwall's Rivers and Estuaries....
Under a byelaw, which came into force in January 2018, it is an offence to use a net for taking sea fish in any of the rivers or estuaries within the Cornwall IFCA district. It is also an offence to carry a net on board a vessel while engaged in any fishing activity within the rivers and estuaries. The prohibition on carrying or using nets does not apply to:
Various low impact nets such as a landing net, brailing net, netting which forms part of a trap for fish or shellfish, or a dredge, or any manually operated net which does not exceed 4 square meters.
Sand eel seine nets used under a permit issued by Cornwall IFCA.
Ebb nets used under a permit issued by Cornwall IFCA.
@@michaelbrazendale8368 Yes I have my friend and its very legal. There's no bylaws on cast nets as they are under 4 meter square.
Yeah but you pay no attention to minimum size requirements
@@okcarter999 There are no size restrictions on gray mullet in this river. Although I did not take any under 20cm
Great video mate! Fellow Cornwall cast netter here. I first saw it done in the Amazon something like 15 years ago and bought myself a net when i got back. I was lucky enough to have a fishing friend from ascention island to teach me the technique. I caught some great mullet, a memorable netful of mackerel and a few good bass with it in the Fal and Fowey esturies. Havent done it in years as my net disintegrated but i would like to get another. Any recommendations for a decent quality net with large mesh size for fast sinking? Nothing like that tug tug tug of a good netful of big mullet on the rope😊
@@JohnNichol-ms7pv hi ya buddy, great to read your comment, to be honest any of the cheap Chinese amazon/eBay nets are perfect, it's all I've ever used, do let me know how you get on 👍
Is it legal to use it in the UK
Perhaps you could include something in your videos about only taking what you need. A am a shooting but I am a sport fisherman to. Mullet are and excellent sporing quarry and it seems a shame to see them harvested by the bucket full. They are very slow growing and fellow mullet fisherman report populations totally wiped out at certain marks. The reason given it commercial netting. Mullet are a resource we all can enjoy but not once they are gone. Your method may legal I don't have the knowledge to comment. But a message of only take what you need wouldn't go a miss.
@@Toss-io5ch I fully understand and respect your opinion, but I visit Cornwall at most a couple of times a year and take a few fish each time for consumption throughout the year when I'm landlocked in Leicester for the rest of the year.
Yes but you a board casting to a wide audience. Some may not show the same restraint. When you provide instruction as you have, you should, I believe explain that when this method is affective the is a responsibility to understand the resource sustainability when harvesting.
@@Toss-io5ch Thanks for the side note 👍
spoken to my local.MP and the environmental agency. my MP has taken my request up.to ask a question in parliament. to ban the use of cast nets.
@stevengardner81 to be perfectly honest, I think that cast nets are fine for responsible fishing and bait fishing. Unfortunately, this video is not a great example of responsible fishing. However, I do think that mullet catch sizes should fall in line with mackerel restrictions.
Again I agree with the Luther posts. Most of those look to Small and you should only keep what you need.
That’s a really fascinating and informative video-I totally get why you are so enthusiastic about it. Have you tried this method on the open shoreline where the fish, if any are present at all, are not visible and if so have you had any success? I am thinking in particular about surf beaches where flatfish are often close in as well bass.
@@davidburgess2354 Thank you mate!👍 Yes that's where I started doing this originally, on the beach ankle deep in the water. I found you need quite calm water so you can see ripples or when they surface slightly. Otherwise you'll be throwing your net blind. I suppose if your going to a spot you know always has those fish there, it could work. Hope that helps mate 👍
Advice from the local marine group:
Finally, ALL anglers are encouraged to fish sustainably, and show respect for other marine users and the environment. This means not taking more fish than you will eat; catch and release of small (and large) fish; not leaving any litter or waste, and taking care how you handle live fish so as to minimise stress and prevent their injury. D
@@jonrundle3914 totally agree Jon, the thing people don't understand is I was on holiday, and I take a few mullet once a year, every angler you ever find fishing with a rod, takes a whole lot more fish than me, I fillet and freeze these and probably eat one a month, so very sustainable, not over fishing, no rubbish, discarded hooks and line, and definitely no ruptured swim bladders, just a completely ethical way of putting a few dinners on the table throughout the year.
the more of this video i watch .the more my blood.boils
Unsubscribe buddy
how.many fish do you need ????
Great instructional video, picking up on a couple of points. It would be nice to see a legal size measure in use , also perhaps showing the safe return of all the undersized fish. As a freezer filler i understand your methods albeit angling on light gear would have probably been more sporting. Btw.. Bass
42 centimetres .. Grey Mullet ..20 centimetres
@@paulroscorla3887 Thank you for the advice mate, I have been fishing my whole life and I know the restrictions on all fish and always sure to check on what I don't know. I'd never be unethical whilst fishing. I checked with ifca and they made me aware that actually for grey mullet in an estuary being caught with a net under 4m square that there is no size restrictions at all. Which I was surprised myself but never keep the fish under 20cm anyway as there's not a lot of meat on them 20cm let alone smaller. But yes that's definitely somthing I'd bare in mind next time, so the people can see for themselves. 👍

Wot size net you got and where from, brilliant channel 👏
@@markjenkins1410 Cheers mate, my net is 6ft from amazon. Its as cheap as chips👍
It wont be long before bus loads turn up with nets.😢
@@russellbridgman3777 Well not necessarily in Cornwall mate as people can do this where ever live. Beaches and tidal rivers everywhere in the UK. 👍
@@FORAGEFEAST-m1c it's happening where I live mullet are virtually non existent hear now. You could virtually walk on them ,there were that many. Now your lucky to see one. Incidently I am related to an old looe fishing family . The Tamblyns.
@@russellbridgman3777 Ah where abouts is that, that's unfortunate, this because cast net fishing?
@@FORAGEFEAST-m1c organised gangs using any method available. Some areas have now had fences and gates erected to try and stop it. Southwest Devon.
@@russellbridgman3777 I'm sorry to hear that mate sounds awful!😯
Lovely place looe is.
I’ve always gone on holiday nearly every year mate in the summer.
This year tho I was there in may
@@piemanoutdooradventures I bet it was nicer in May than it is now to be fair mate! The weather's shocking 😂
Brilliant karl buddy 👌
@@JCATAPULTHUNTING thank you mate! Much appreciated 👍
Your eye scales need to be recalibrated
@@anthonygreen4981 👍😂
👍
I hope sombody reports you to uk bass its illegal to fish for bass with a cast net .Youre only allowed 2 bass with rod and line .The eastury is a designated nusery area and there is bye laws . All the people that are praising you should look up the the law .
Great video enjoy watching mate look forward to next one 👍🏻
Thank you mate
you can only.take 2 bass .its the law
@@stevengardner81 I only took 1 bass
Don’t think what you are doing is legal don’t think you are allowed to net estuarys
@@olivervenus3797 I am mate, most estuaries have their own bylaws so you ideally need to check with the local environment agency or IFCA but with this river I did and its fine. I hope this clears things up 👍 I have had a lot of negative comments on the cast net video's from people who don't do their research before commenting negatively.
@FORAGEFEAST-m1c were the Bass you took over 42 cm ?
@@olivervenus3797 I'm sorry, I don't have to answer to you!😂 I know what I'm doing and what I can and can not do. I have been fishing my whole life. Thanks.
Its illeagal in UK to fish with cast nets in rivers and estuarys, im reporting you and i hope you get a massive fine..Ive downloaded this as evidence.
@@Anthonyinkz it'll be a laugh mate when you report me & find out your wrong 😂👍
Totally unnecessary to kill all those fish.
@@snoopiain well that's how fishing for food usually works 👍
