  • This island is awesome! Join Graeme as he is on vacation on the island of Madeira. This is something different on T.A. Fishing, with a travelogue Graeme made and which might pass half an hour for you..It shows some impressive views on the Atlantic Island of Madeira, and the closest Graeme got to seeing any fish was in the local fish market...There were certainly some weird and wonderful species in there...Pour yourself a drink, relax, and let him take you on tour with his camera.

    Anyway, get your self down to Green park in Reading, Longwater lakes.....fantastic fishing...day ticket facility, cold water and toilets available, there is even a cafe open to the public.....the whole place is manicured as if you were in a national trust property with benches and rubbish bins everywhere and the swims are very sturdy and well built, the pike fishing on No 1 lake is to be envied but there are many other species to be had and the most elusive are the "doctor fish" the tenches, they seem to be very wise to anglers.

    From about 10.35 to 10.50 is indeed what you guessed - Cod. Known throughout Portugal (where I live) as Bacalhau. Dried salted cod, almost all of which is Norwegian.
    To me it is a waste of good fish. No doubt necessary in the past before refrigeration, but it needs soaked for a very long time to regain some moisture, and it never loses enough salt. Many Portuguese, and some foreigners, rave about it. Give me fresh anytime in preference to this.

    • @wings06

    • @alanmcdonald4423
      @alanmcdonald4423 4 года назад

      @@wings06 As I said many people, including non Portuguese do rave about it. I have tried it a few times because trying something once is not enough to form a fair opinion. Three days with several water changes makes it a non starter for me. There are a few foods I do not like - curry for starters. I eat a lot and prefer fresh meat, fish, vegetables and many fruits all without seasoning so that I can taste the items I am eating. It is invariably accompanied and complemented by Portuguese wines, both table and fortified.

    not sure if anyone said, the dried fish, is actually cod ( or that is our tradition at least). rather then sun dried is actually salted cod. I would say is not great when you boil it (is our xmas eve traditional meal), but there are some pretty nice ways to cook it and it can be yummy!

    Hi Graeme, just wondering if you still have the photos of you with your “Arizona trout” or salmo apache as I believe they’re known??? I hold love to see them and I also think a video recalling some of the fishing you’ve experienced around the world would be tremendously popular. Could be done in another W and a session as we all particularly enjoyed the first one!!!
    Cheers, a huge fan.

      Yes,we ran my story on the Apache Trout of Arizona in ,I believe,Trout Fisherman magazine. I drove all the way up to the White Mountains from Scottsdale to meet the ranger/guide...It was an exclusive experience for sure..It was just a section of an incredible press trip that saw me stay away from the UK for over 5 weeks..how my business survived I'll never know,and I took 21 flights backwards and forwards between the States covering fishing from Arizona to Cape Cod and the Florida Keys...What a trip..

Sea food is quite spectacular 👍👍 if you watch the Portuguese build a house you would be quite shocked how thick the roof is. Under the visible tiles there are many layers including a concrete one and another of insulation. It does keep the heat out in the Summer and in during the winter. Madeira can be quite cold and wet during the winter . Just looked at all your great merchandise, maybe a boat sticker could be addition one day ?
