Lure Fishing for Cod & Pollack | Effort Vs Reward | Shore Fishing UK

- Опубликовано: 27 авг 2024
- I've had my eye on fishing this mark for a number of years and finally made the commitment to try and fish it. Lure fishing was the chosen method with cod and pollack being the target species.
Question is, is the effort worth the reward?

Breaking news just in.... A popular RUclipsr and fisherman was rescued by helicopter from an isolated coastal rock ledge today after becoming literally helpless with laughter at the amusing antics of the local seals as they snaffled and yoinked his catch. Doctors who treated him report that they had to administer what would normally be a fatal overdose of misery pills just to bring him down from hysterical paroxysmal paralysis to a safe though still uncontrollable level of chortling. 'I literally nearly died laughing' said the man, still wiping tears of unparalleled joy from his eyes several hours later as he recalled seeing a seal come to the surface just yards away to flag him off while necking his trophy fish after an arduous climb and hours carrying heavy equipment. Doctors said a full recovery is expected but that if anything nearly as funny happens to him again 'it could be curtains'.
Alreet Dave, Best comment in ages, I just very nearly had a relapse after reading that.
@@SlippyLimpets Just a bit of fun. Its nice to have fun innit?
Fun is what it's all about!
Bloody hell Nathan, you really do push things to the limit. Remember one loose rock and your fishing days could be over. Please stay SAFE and tight lines. Mike.
It's hard to pick up but I was testing every dodgy looking rock (tapping each one to hear if it's hollow) I used just in case there was a lose rock around, should have worn a head cam rather than a chestie to show it. I've spent too long climbing to ruin my fishing. Tight lines 👍🎣
Unbelievable video!
You’re the man!
Well! I never ever thought I would see anyone mad or skillfull enough to fish there. I’ve seen a white goat out there standing atop with his chest puffed out. Gallus is the word! It’s 45 mins on boat from Dunbar and in good conditions is a beautiful stretch of coastline. Caught biggest ballan wrasse I’ve ever seen not far away. You’d love it on a boat around there, it looks so much more dangerous and challenging in real life than video can show. Hats off to you boys!
Never, in a million years. You are either very brave or very foolish. I am amazed by what you went through, getting to that mark. Hat's off, mate.
I'll go with the brave option 👍Thanks and hope you enjoyed
10 out of 10 for effort lads. I've no head for heights so I was bricking it just watching. Massive sense of achievement when you do what you've set out to do.
Think I'll stick to sand under my feet 🎣
It was a good feeling! after that effort a sole mackerel would have been a bonus!
Wow!Mental and I have to admit, I love it.Hope it gets the exposure and views it deserves! Well done and thanks for allowing me to come along from the comfort of my sofa. Legend! 🙌
Cheers mate and you're welcome 😊
One of your best videos out there slippy without a doubt..took alot of balls and effort for you and your buddy and u done well and got you reward in the end .Well done
Thanks Scott, had a mint day and glad you enjoyed it too👍🎣
Awesome video some lovely fish you caught there but very risky to say the least, i love going down rocks but not to that extreme stay safe and thanks for showing...... Tight lines
Absolute mad lads! The harder you work the luckier you get, great vid as always 👌🏻💪🏻🎣
When I was younger we fished this mark often we called it the battle ship because of its side profile. If it rained when you were out on the end some parts of it became very slippery like black ice. Getting back off became very Dangerous.
videos like this are why youtube needs a WOW button.
That's a great suggestion!
Awesome video had me hooked from the start. Great to see good sizable fish coming out so close to shore
Thanks and glad you liked it. I was amazed we got anything given then number of seals knocking aroun
Unreal effort man.
I've done some sketchy climbs around there and shat my pants on more than one occasion.
Glad you weren't doing this alone.
Super effort
It's a tough area to fish! Spent many an hour scrambling and walking around only to be greeted with shallow kelp ground. This particular mark has been on my hit list for years but never had the balls to get to it, well worth the effort. But you're right, having capable company makes all the difference. Tight lines👍🎣
My heart was in my mouth most of the video but thank you so much for sharing your epic adventure.
My pleasure, sounds like it had the desired effect! Thank you for watching and tight lines👍🎣
Excellent vid mate ,that was a trek and a half fair play 👌
Thanks Ricky👍🎣😊
I love that you love fishing so much that you channel your inner mountain goat to do it!
Haha, yeah my first hobby was climbing then I found fishing and now I like to mix the 2 together👍🎣
i did smile when you said you would have a bit of fun and the sheep came into view
Haha, I did live in North Wales for a year or two 😅
What a mental video man.at times i thought , " no way will they make it out there ", but then i remembered " its nathan ".there were some nice fish caught by both of you.shame that seal got your fish and had the cheek to show it to you also.this video deserves an oscar for the effort and performance put in .well done boys.tite lines and stay safe.cheers.
Thank you Micheal. We weren't sure we'd make it either but a slow and steady approach meant we did, and yeah, that seal had a cheek. I was gutted when it took that fish, I was sure it was a good'n 👍🎣
Balls of steel mate ... I was sweating watching it cheers all the best marra 😃
That is a hair-raising mark, bit of a climb but paid off with some good fish. It is always going to be a challenge when you have to take climbing gear. Hats off to you both for the effort. At least you were rewarded, and so were the seals after they stole a couple of decent fish. Enjoyed the vlog. All the best to you both and tight lines.
Fortunately (or unfortunately since we had to carry it) not challenging enough to need to gear. I was truly amazed that we didn't lose more fish to those seals given the number of them. Best not go back too frequently else they will definitely cotton on. Tight lines👍🎣
Nice walk/climb to a mint mark!! Wish we had such places to fish here in the Netherlands...what we do have though SEALS. They Rob your fish while reeling them in (for us it is seabass). Now we have found an alternative to get your lure back! Slack your line, (i mean open up your reel completely) and the seal will surface to eat your fish in front of you. When done eating usually they trow out the head of the fish WITH your lure. Seeing that, reel in the fishes head ASAP, they tend to even get it again andrepeat the process until you reel in a fishes head with your lure in it 😉
Best of luck guys!!
You have another follower 👍🏼
Nathan that was bloody amazing! Great to watch, thank you for putting the effort in 👍
My pleasure Gary, glad you liked it, and thanks for watching👍🎣
Lichen covered rocks on a cold wet November morning,could only mean one thing,another class slippy,the mountain goat limpets video, top notch as usual nath
Haha, thanks Mick, glad you liked it👍🎣
I have been scouting this area for a while. Good work I wasn’t going to have a crack at that point. 🎉🎉 stay safe!
It's a tough area, places look really good only to be 3m deep with a load of kelp. Kayak heaven, though, just as long as you don't mind the long paddle
Blimey you two are awesome. Had trouble going downstairs after watching you.
Stay safe all the best cliff.
Thank you Cliff 😊 hope the vertigo has subsided
That video deserves a BAFTA. 👏👏👏👏
And you and Lewis/Louis deserve a penthouse suite in a 5 star asylum.🥺🥺🤯🤯
Joking apart Nathan, that was absolutely stunning. ♥️♥️The climbing, the seals, the drone footage, the dolphins, the fish, the whole package.😲👏😲👏
Well done to you both,👍👍 and a PB cod for your mate.🎣👏
Thanks, and respect, to you both.🫡🫡
Man that was nuts.🫢
Best wishes to you both, take care and stay safe, please.😷🙊
Ian, I think this comment had the most emoji's I've received. Love it ❤️ and thank you. 5* sounds great😜
Holy moly. Not the sort of swim to arrive at and realise you’ve forgotten something.
Haha, or leave something at!
Exciting to say the least . I nearly fell off a couple of those ledges 🙈. Nathan pure class and Lewis for a climbing novice fair play ye mad bar steward! Class class class. Loved it one of your best 👍👍👍🎣🎣🎣
Thanks Pat, Glad you liked it. Lewis has 15 years on me so he's definitely taking the heavy bag next time-out 🤣
Thought I had clicked on a Alex Honnold video at first....
I can definitely say I won't be visiting that mark... I value my life too much.
But glad it proved worth the effort in the end despite presence of the hungry seals.
Awesome stuff.
He's an inspiration to climbers and a total legend, but he's got bigger balls (and skills) than me.
Can't wait to get back in the summer and spend a whole day there. Tight lines👍🎣
@@SlippyLimpets Balls of steel to do the climbs he does freestyle. I get anxious watching him climb even though you know he doesn't fall. Amazing guy.
There used to be a guy on tv when I was younger. A steeplejack called Fred Dibnah, and he would be at the top of these tall chimneys, harness free, after a few pints for lunch. Mad. Some people just have no fear, or if they do, they have a mentality I can't comprehend.
Good luck for a cracking winter's fishing. Nothing like going out fishing at night and the only means of putting feeling back in your fingers is to dip them in your coffee lol
some great footage there lads, as you get older and you look back on this film you will say "NO WAY DID i DO THAT"!
haha, quite possibly, or maybe "I wish I could still do that!"
Hi Nathan ... You guys obviously know what you are doing definitely not a mark I will be fishing 🤔ever. Must have been awesome to work your way to the point and catch some quality fish well done guys 👏👏really enjoyed the video thanks for sharing ... take care mate and stay safe 👍🎣🎣
Hi Stephen, yeah, I really enjoy this type of thing. Finding a spot, trying to access it and finding out it fishes well, like you said, a massive sense of achievement that only adds to the fishing!. Tight lines mate
I don't know if you are brave or just a pair of lunatics, you had me papping myself, I have no head for heights. all said what a great video!
Probably a little bit of both! Glad you liked it though. Tight lines!
Great video bud , great location, n great days fishing , one of the best ,all round vids I’ve seen on here
Thank you 😊
I used to access rock marks like that using a small car top dingy, it avoided all that climbing.
Yeah, a small dingy would make it much easier but I enjoy figuring out the approach to marks like this as much as fishing them.
Jesus man You 2 are nuts!!!! My anxiety is through the roof watching You getting to the end of the point, THEN thinking Yiu have to get back!!!!!!
My legs are still aching now 🤣
what a mark ! great Video as always, thanks for taking the camera just awesome to watch .
Thanks mate, appreciate it👍🎣
I'm too old now to go fishing. I used to take a rope with me too. I really enjoy your videos, keep them coming thanks.
I keep carrying a rope and climbing hardware but haven't used it, thinking I should ditch it and scan some calories. Glad I could take you along with me👍👍
Favourite upload so far. Awesome mix of great climbing and fishing!🎣
Wow, thanks 😊 Glad you liked it👍🎣
That was frickin’ awesome mate. Maximum effort and maximum reward. Loved that video. Congrats on the adventure!
Thank you! Glad you liked it
Absolutely efin brilliant 👍 you and your buddy really pulled one out the bag ... Tip my hat to the both of you 🎣 Brilliant and Tight Lines..
Thanks Pat!!😊👍🎣
We used to fish there 20years ago . We called it the battle ship because of its shape . Bugger to climb . We used to park at the farm and walk along the beach and climb up the left hand side . The big slop is dangerous when it rains to keep that in mind . We had some great fish off there . If you look to the right there’s another mark that sticks out was good as well 🎣🎣👍
Ah, so someone else has fished it, we weren't sure. Good point about the hill, it is pretty loose, but we preferred that approach than battling through hundreds of seals on the beach! Thanks for the tip, I'll keep an eye out for it. Tight lines 🎣👍
That’s an amazing looking place. The drone shots were great. Thanks for sharing your trip.
Not a problem, thanks for watching!
Looks like a mad place to get to! Make sure you check you have everything you need before you start out.
Aye, it would be a nightmare leaving something like a reel in the car.
Cool. Now I know why you got a boat. Great vid.
Cracking tune that at the beginning 👌
Great vid. I bet your bones were aching that night, now that's what you call hardcore fishing, loved it. All the best and keep them coming.👍
They were and for the next 3 nights! Glad you liked it and tight lines👍🎣
Awesome video, 5 minutes away from my house 👍🏻
Great place to live!
For a moment I thought you were off out for a " canny bag of tudor ". Cracking session and well worth the effort. Stay safe out there.
haha, there's a blast from the past!
Plumb tuckered out just watchin' ya. Might have to go have a nap. ;)
Fantastic day for it. Seals, Dolphins, fish.... perfect weather.
Sorry, hope I haven't woke you up 🤣 Thanks for the comment!
man you take it to the extreme with your climbing fair play to you
Thanks Richard 👍🎣
Fair play, lad. Thanks for a great video!
My pleasure and thanks for watching!
Absolutely epic video, one of your best so far.
More drone shots would have been awesome but I'll let you off for the massive effort on navigating to and from the mark.
Next time just kayak from nearby and climb onto the ledge?!
Really love the brutal scenery, sharp rocks and sheer drops. Nice!! More pleeeeease!! d;-)
Thanks LV, it's an awesome area but the nearest spot to launch a kayak is about 6 miles away, so not a small paddle. Sorry about the lack of drone footage, I ran out of time editing it and forgot to include it😪 glad you liked it though👍🎣
Outstanding video,from someone who thinks climbing over a five bar gate an achievement when going fishing..
Thanks Neil, glad you liked it. Those gates can be tricky especially when they've got a dodgy hinges. Tight lines👍🎣
like the Cullin Ridge at sea level. Good effort!
That's a good description for it, thankfully it's nowhere near as long!
Thats some serious scrambling/climbing, and some good fishing, shame the amount of seals although they didn't put the fish off feeding, and your drag washers had a bit of use keep the damp off them, cracking video
You guys certainly put the effort in there. Well done for making it down then back. They say three points off contact think i would have been four and then screaming for my mummy to come get me.
If only mine had come to collect me, my legs are still aching now🤣
Just watched it again, you're crazy.hats off to lads
I like to say it's stubbornness rather than craziness.😊
Having seen it all now, One of the best vlogs I've ever seen.... Takr care guys, Bravo. 😊😊😊🏴🏴🇫🇷
Thank you Albert, and a good hint with the pulley. Should make getting back up easier👍🎣
@@SlippyLimpets once without rope and pulleys, l as stuck there in the rain 4 two days, rain with pulleys 2 hours and a rabbits foot. 😊😊😊❤️🏴🏴
Great video! Some nice lumps there and the seals learned fast. And to see the dolphins just added to the overall awesomeness.
Woooow! Scary mark but worth the effort! Not sure I have the head for those heights. Stay safe Nathan & Tight Lines lad.
Thanks Sean. Tight lines👍🎣
Brilliant.👌 My heart was in my mouth a few times just watching it on video 😅😅 Top tune as well. Straight on the playlist 👍
Mine too🤣 Glad you liked it👍🎣
Blimey that's a heck of a fishing spot don't get much tougher awesome video 👍
Probably the hardest one I've accessed, so far. Thanks and tight lines👍🎣
After watching that , I’m more than happy to fish the south east beaches ,some cracking fish though
Love the beaches but, every now and again, it's nice to have a bit of an adventure.👍🎣
I am a climber and got half way along that fin to fish 2 years ago but was alone with no climbing gear so sacked it off. Good effort lads!
I've climbed for 20 years and this was the hardest (not the most dangerous) mark I've accessed and it was easier having company, but if it helps, if you got halfway along then you've done the hardest parts. Worth a trip back?
@@SlippyLimpets aye, probably bottled it because I was alone. Top vid Nathan. 👍
I had my best bass fishing session in a seal cove. When they surrounded my boat, i thought it was going to be a waste of time , but I was casting within yards of them and catching time after time😀
It's great when they're not hungry and don't they put the fish off that much.
Oh man that's commitment! Have you ever had any properly scary moments getting to marks like that? I got into real trouble down in Cornwall when I was a kid, it gives you a whole new respect for things! Awesome video mate loved it 👍
There was one time I made a stupid mistake and ended up in the drink, and suffered so pretty bad barnacle rash. Took me at least 10 minutes to figure out how to get back out, only managed it after a bit of breathing and calming down. I've been in more dodgy situations in the alps in winter when faced with avalanches and collapsing frozen waterfalls, so it helps put things into perspective. Glad you liked it mate👍🎣
I have done some scrabbling on the West coast of Scotland but that was too much. Glad you had a buddy. Next time rope up and make the descent safer. Lower and pull up your gear. Be safe.
Thats gone to favourites 😁 great vid Nathan, I did a similar thing when I was in Cornwall by the wheal prosper mine , left the wife and dog at the top of the cliff, just climbed down and fished 🐟😀 apparently two young lads said to my wife we want to fish there how did he get down she pointed the way both looked over the ledge said f@#$ that walked on 🤣 to be fair on the way down was thinking I'm too old for all this ! But we'll worth the challenge
Always worth the challenge, my kegs were complaining for a few days afterwards, though. Glad you liked it Kev and tight lines👍🎣
Wow I get scared for you, I like fishing but you take it to a whole new level. Keep the excellent content coming but most of all stay safe.
Thanks John, and we will👍🎣
Nathan u r a mountain goat , another great video, always good to watch your content 🎣🔥👌
Thanks, Adam, appreciate it. 🙏
UK's equivalent of Australia's 'Gido's fishing adventures' - had vertigo watching the access section to the mark. Great stuff !
That's my favourite channel, we have the scenery to match his, just wish we had fishing! 👍🎣
Ive got vertigo just watching, brilliant film as always
Thanks Mike👍🎣
Great video lads !! That's was hardcore !!!
Glad you liked it!
Here in America where I live we just simply climb in the boat to get to places hard to reach. Try it sometime.
Only able to watch you both doing this in the knowledge that if you were able to upload the video you're still alive👍
I should add I only saw 15 minutes in when I added the comment☺️ I watched the rest and I'm glad you made it back but don't do it again my nerves were shot just watching
Haha, can't guarantee that we don't but maybe some prior warning might help with the nerves?
Man ye have gonads like basketballs. I wouldnt even zoom in on that spot on google maps let alone climb out there. Mad as a brush 🤣 but fair play to both of ye. Its great to see a reward put of all that effort. Also i almost threw up when the view showed the steep climb down. Well done great video. 👍👍💪💪🎣🎣
I almost threw up on the way back up, my legs were aching for days!
I fish a mark in West Wales, like yours, take extra care and a little luck, OK.. Great vlog fantastic, thanks..... 😊❤️🏴🏴🇫🇷 I used 2 use rope and pulleys..
I have never suffered from vertigo, but I do now! Brilliant from start to finish. Hope you're a fully paid up member of the RNLI. Tight lines
Great video again Nathan, that's some mark you've found. Found a similar one south of Port Logan, not as far to get along but you could tell no one fished it cos of the gulls nesting on it. You done well to get as many fish out with the amount of seals there though.
Some great fishing over at Port Logan, lots of rocks to go at as well. We were surprised the seals weren't getting more either, it was almost like they were confused at what we were doing!👍
amazing adventure mate!
Thanks Petter😊
20 years at sea and we would dream of water like this.
Really cool vid man, my self preservation instincts are way too strong to be going that far to catch a fish but yeah another fantastic production ! 😉
Must admit, mine kicked in at times
This deserves 10m views, cant see too many people achieving this location 😮GOOD JOB
That was a crazy climb !
Appreciate the video,as always,that is one mark i will NEVER fish 😂
Must admit I won't be heading back till the summer. Not sure if the pain in my legs was worth having just 3 hours of fishing🤣
I don’t think I could climb down that .😂 well done buddy good days fishing . Would love to see that fish the seal got. 👍👍
I knew instantly it was a canny fish and confirmed when the cheeky bugga came to the surface to devour it. Wish i had a better camera so i could of zoomed in to show you guys
I thought i put alot of effort in crawling through brambles 😂 that's next level 👏🏻
Spent hours crawling through brambles in Pembrokeshire, would much rather do this climb than do that again🙌😨
Epic. My fear of heights kept me watching, great fishing. You have a new subscriber. 👍🏻
Welcome to the channel Nick! All the best and tight lines👍🎣
I'd probably get down there and find out I'd forgotten my lures lol. Some climb that!
That's normally what happens to me. Thankfully I packed my bag the night before
That was crazy Nathan, taking fishing to the extreme I get worn out just walking to the marina and it’s flat 😂😂 well done ad stay on the beach a lot easier 👍👍
Haha not quite as exciting though😉
Great vid Nathan. Take a look at giddos fishing adventures SW western Oz, you will love it!
I know it well, one of my favourite channels on the tube! Glad you liked the vid👍🎣
Hello fishing friend! A little hello from France!
Say, you guys are pumped up, what a descent! I myself am daredevil fishing, I don't even know if I will go to this spot! Watch the weather carefully and don't go there when it's wet! Either way, respect! Challenge successful! And from a to z, congratulations for everything!
Areet Nathan,, being waiting for this after seeing the Instagram pics 👏
Alreet mate, hope you enjoy
Yes slippy limpets
Proper awesome job that one lads ! Great effort and well rewarded, always wondered what that would fish like. Never had a seal take a Pollack, had them follow them in when hooked but not take them. They will take the Cod though. Bloke that used to run a charter in that rea reckoned when they threw fish to the seals back at harbour they wouldn't look at the Pollack.
If you have a seal take a fish, just give them slack line and they will bite the head off and you will usually get your lure and a head back, works up here anyway.
Cheers Rab. The seals at MOG love pollack and had one taken from me at Whitley bay too. I'll give that slack line trick a go. Tight lines👍🎣
@@SlippyLimpets Have a good winter mate, get Lewis at the cod as well. Learn a lot about water features that can be applied to the lures at the winter cod fishing. For me this is the best UK shore fishing ever made, hands down !
He said he was keen, but not sure he can get lure fishing out of his head. I'm heading up to Arbroath on Thursday so hopefully, that should make up for a pretty rubbish cod season, so far. Really appreciate the comment Rab and hope you're getting amongst them👍🎣
@@SlippyLimpets Nice steady start to the winter for me, looks to be more fish and some better ones about than last few years so looking forward to the rest of it. Seems to be a stack of fish further south of ,mate from Yorkshire and his mates having a great season since October, some quality fish as well. I might see you Thursday as i'm guessing you will be fishing with someone local that's looking for some social media exposure, lol and the forecast and tides would suggest a certain area. I hope it's not one of the wallopers, there's a few of them up here that do some "guiding",lol.
I used to love climbing when I was younger, but Jesus H. Christ, I had trouble watching you make your way there. Absolute nutters. 😂
Stunning landscape, but ****** that!! 😂
Amazing fishing spot. Goddies location. Well done with a climbing and hiking. Shame you lost that one big fish. Things can happened. 😊 Greetings from Northern Norway 😉😊
Thanks for the comment Rafa, appreciate it👍🎣
17:02 I was expecting that seal to snaffle the fish away. Luckily I think you scared the crap out of them!
there were thousands on either side of the headland, it seemed to be a seal highway, so was amazed to only lose one fish to them.
Tricky access to that one mate, top marks for effort.
As for those Seals, they can bloody do one, can't stand them.
There are hundreds of them on the beach on either side of that headland so I'm surprised we only lost the one to them. Should be good in the summer when they do one. Tight lines mate👍🎣
Caught a seal in Loch Long Years ago , it came to the surface, took
the body,, and flipped the head and my toby... back to me.
There the full shillin!
That's a well-trained seal! Wish I'd got my lure back
Imagine ye blanked after tht tht looked a mission hats off
