CHUMMING for GREAT WHITE SHARKS in BRITAIN?? 🦈🇬🇧
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 авг 2024
- Following our British shark documentary series, the plan has always been to chum British waters to see what wildlife comes.
First time chumming for me, still have alot to learn, the reality of the chumming series is i'd be grateful to see any sharks, I have no doubt Great whites occasionally visit British waters as dicussed throughout the series, but they are a rare fish in general. The goal is to find Porbeagle, Mako, thresher sharks. Equipped with technology such as several gopros, aerial and under water drones, fish finder scanners.... I set out to sea on my tiny 16ft boat in search! This will be an ongoing series.

The reality of finding GWS in BRITAIN, they’re a rare shark globally. So this series is more likely to find Mako, porbeagle, blue and other sharks, which is more realistic! Enjoy and thanks for your support 🇬🇧👍 for record I’ll only ever chum 2+ miles out to sea well away from recreational sea users near the coast
@@MordechaiKestecher
Prove it 😂
@@MordechaiKestecher
Open your mind. Accept that you know nothing of this world, its history, its future and accept that maybe, just maybe you might be wrong on this one.
@@MordechaiKestecher small tooth sand tiger sharks are not to be in our waters but washed up ashore. Sea turtles are not known to be in our waters but wash up ashore and there tropical. So to say great whites don’t visit our waters is a bit silly, especially when they’ve been spotted on the cost of France not far from England.
Should chum water in the channel near Channel Islands, thats where you'll most likely find a Great White!
@@MordechaiKestecher in 1977 a fisherman caught a juvenile great white off the coast of the bay of biscay
As a child we always went to Cornwall on holiday, mostly Hollywell Bay or Penzance. We always saw a lot of sharks, sadly most caught by fishermen. Went out mackerel fishing and that always enticed the sharks to show up. They were Porbeagles and Blue sharks and the odd Basking shark. I always found it fascinating ❤
Thanks Charlotte, yes I hope to Freedive with a porbeagle or blue shark someday! They’re beautiful creatures x
I firmly believe that great white sharks are likely navigating the waters off the west coast of Ireland, attracted by the abundant tuna and other large prey species found there. The seal population in these waters is thriving, making it an even more enticing hunting ground for these apex predators.
It seems plausible that these great whites could be migrating from Mediterranean waters and the seas surrounding the Canary Islands, moving north towards the British Isles. This behaviour would mirror that of the Great Whites observed on the Eastern Sea Board in the US, known for their seasonal northward journey during the summer and autumn months.
Given these observations, it becomes increasingly clear that the potential presence of Great Whites in these waters warrants thorough scientific investigation. The implications of such a discovery could have significant impacts on our understanding of Great White shark migratory patterns and ecosystems of the region.
You are the first person who has mentioned the canary islands. I have been saying for a while that the canary islands would have the occasional GWS visiting.
If they were, we'd have proof. They just don't go to the UK & Ireland. For whatever reason GWS avoid UK & Ireland waters like the plague. I'd be interested to know why because the " its too cold" rhetoric was proven BS years ago.
A few years a go I had several strange encounters rock fishing into deep water in West cork.
Firstly distressed porpoises almost jumping on the rocks, around the same time that day the seals were acting strange they didn't seem to want to leave the rocks.
About 1 week later I went back to the same mark and washed up was the carcass of a large dolphin in layman's terms it looked like it had been bit in half, it had a huge and I mean huge chunk taken out of its mid section , other parts of the body appeared to been taken.
I would probably of.dismissed it but along with the previous porpoises and seals behaviour it did make me think was there an apex predatory working the area.
It's a deep water mark
@@aaronmeyler8838 Orcas?
Later in the summer,maybe.They are not apex predators,killer whales have killed most GWS in South African waters and the rest have fled( ask the people of Simon's Town who lived from GWS sea safari's
Excellent editing and camera work 👌 it’s amazing how quickly the sea can change, keep them coming and hopefully some day you’re going to find something.
There are great whites in the British waters sometimes... I work in the offshore wind business and we had a skipper who also went out with anglers in the Southern part of the channel. App 4 years ago they hit a large "object" in the water with their double props. They turned around to discover they just hit a great white. The skipper was absolutly sure it was a GW! He knows a lot about fish and sharks.
Every boat skipper has a story to tell like this but miraculously nobody has any evidence!
@@samcushing3790 because no fisherman stands there ready with a camera
Absolute rubbish. Fishermen’s tales
@@samcushing3790No reason they wouldn’t be here. Plenty of food and right temperature. They are in Scotland
‘They are in Scotland’……where’s your proof?
Buzzing for this now! Got my popcorn ready, 🍿 i truly believe you will find one. The more chum you can get in the water, the betted
i am so excited for you to start chumming, i am fascinated to see what turns up over the next few months. Fascinating
Doesn't matter what you find I just enjoy watching your adventures pal.
Cheers Yorky! 🕺
Another great video, keep up the good work, the sharks will come soon enough 🦈
Even if you get footage of a mako that would be something special
Wow mako.. Rare as rocking horse shit in uk water... beautiful fish thou..
Joyce Yallow 1966 ( i think it was ).
Uk mako record.
500lb..
I think even if no Great Whites are caught, I still find UK sharks very interesting. People obsess over Great White for good reason, but it's a shame the Porbeagle doesn't get enough love or respect. It deserves it's own documentaries and to learn more about their behaviour abd habits.
The views are priceless, great virtual trip, surprised there wasn't any fish, Happy adventuring and stay safe.😊
Another thing while I'm here. I had a chum bag over the side about 20ft down a couple of years ago fishing for tope and we had a massive pull on it, proper boat lurching pull so definitely things down there.
Hi .,
I’ve stayed on your beautiful island for a week or so during the TT racing in 2017. So happy to find your adventures on u tube and great to see the ISLE OFMANN once again. Cheers from Australia
Welcome aboard! I’m a big fan of Australia 🇦🇺
Absolutely brilliant m8, looking forward to your future videos, I have to say, I’m excited for you👍
Thanks a ton!
Really would be amazing if you see any type of shark really. Great content as always.
Great vid.. Keep them coming.. look forward to the varied adventures.. each one's a bit different..
Are you seeing many fish on the Fish Finder? It's odd that you and a couple of the other local RUclipsrs have dived a few areas that were designated Marine Nature Reserves years ago, but seem devoid of life. There is an Eelgrass zone over near Garwick, I wonder if all the fish are hiding over there? It's a shame that Liverpool University decided the Port Erin Marine Lab wasn't worth maintaining, expanding or relocating as there big holes in our understanding of the waters and sea bed up to the 12 mile limit. Good video regardless, as always. Great to see The 3 Amigos out in the Warriors. Glad to see a few fish were happy to take bait.
Cheers mate, I'm not seeing many fish on the fish finder, in fairness i havent been actively going to marks, but will make a point to have a look. Thanks bud
Hi Mate,
Fellow Brit here who happens to be a veteran shark fisherman,caught hundreds of them the biggest being a 12ft tiger shark.
I live in London and shark fish predominantly in florida.
I’d love to come out and catch a big one in British waters.If you want to catch monster sized sharks you need to use massive baits.
I’d catch one of those topes and use that as live bait,hook it,cut its tail off and throw him overboard.If there’s any monsters in the area you’ll get one with that.
I use 30lb black tips for bait in florida.
Thanks mate really appreciate this advice’ I’m hoping to target tope sharks soon!
Wow.... what a sadist. Not nice.
Another fantastic video, underwater visibility looked pretty good, shame you're having trouble with the Sub, hoping next time you catch a break and get load's of fish when chumming, best of luck.
Great Video and looking forward to viewing some of your others. I imagine that the Portbeable shark has been conditioned to follow commercial fishermen, hence the reason it wanted to have a look at the guy's boat near Plymouth.
David Benavidez is fighting David Morrell in October.
The mako is the sugar ray Leonard ...of the shark world. Even the great white backs away from this shark...Why?..because it goes for the wrist of the tail to cripple
How exciting.. can't wait till the next one.. hope you find a GW and he narrowly misses biting you buddies leg off.. that will be so riveting.
Been waiting for a long time for "the search" cant wait to see how it goes, best of luck and stay safe out on the water
Cheers Kiwi Nick
Yes ill definitely be watching for more chum videos!! Thank u
Quality content. Safe journeys. 👍
If you play the jaws theme it draws them in apparently 😂
As a shark angler 40 years ago, I would try to stay out for days, laying a long trail. We did a trip from Penazance hanging around Longships, using the tide rip to spread the trail. 60 hours. Brought a lot of interested selachians to the
Thank you that’s an idea indeed Nigel
@@AirbornePirates two threshers trailed us. Wouldn't take a bait. Never saw a gws in all my sharking years. Wish I'd fished IofS...far west, seals, reefs, great area.
I love the fact you are really trying and any video of a shark that's not "meant" to be in our waters which I am utterly convinced include the GW which I'm sure visits our waters would be a bonus. I'm no fisherman but would adding fish blood help? Maybe the just stop oil protesters could contribute to the chumming and sacrifice themselves in the name of science 😂
That angel shark was seen about 5 miles from me here in Ireland.
Enjoyed the trip out chumming 👍
Very cool, cracking spot
You are the best, such a long time i'm wainting a man like you!
Jumped out of my skin when your camera beeped! 😂cos I was just thinking ' what if a shark jumped up at your camera?' Then it beeped!! 🤣🤣...da duh, da duh...
Love your channel & so excited as believe if you persevere you will identify & film a great white in uk 🇬🇧 waters 🦈👍
Great video.. I'd love to come to the IOM. It's less than 3 hours on the ferry from Dublin, Catch a week of TT racing and then explore the Island a bit too
Islander outdoors...bringing Great whites to a Uk news bulletin near you!!!😂
P.s Am actually more worried about stepping on a weaver fish!
Another awesome video and such a good advert for Warrior, I'm sure they could send you a few to test for them! Bit lumpy that day, we got a bit of kicking rounding Clay Head. Also, thanks for the drone vids and pics, made my day :)
Anytime matey! 👋
Really enjoyed the video, please keep them coming....thanks. 👍
Awesome video as always buddy, looks great fun out on your boat fair one. Your editing skills are level. Love watching your videos always interesting 🤜🤛
Throughly enjoyed your outing, great video !
Shitehawks , not heard that term in years !👍🏻👍🏻
Oh wow that underwater submersible camera...I'd love to see what u can see with that!!
We been waiting for this fpr months.
" Yeah i can go slow, come down and chum some of this shit"...
Ring any bells..😂😂😂
Great content Matt, it's going to happen!! 🦈
Love your videos dude!
I don’t understand half of the boat lingo but still find these videos fascinating 👌🏼👍🏼
Me too 😂👍
Did you see the vid of that poor guy getting attacked in Egypt by the Tiger shark? We kinda forget sometimes that these are wild, predatory animals who do sometimes attack and consume humans - no Tiger sharks in UK waters (too cold, they prefer more tropical waters) but stay safe man. RIP Vladimir.
I did, most savage attack I’ve seen. Poor guy
Getting some underwater footage of a thresher would really be something, fascinating animal!!
I only recently learned nobody had filmed a thresher until 1995 in the wild
@@AirbornePirates I didn’t know that but it makes sense, I don’t think that they’re very common in Uk waters. Don’t know if you’ve seen the footage of one, clearly distressed, down the side of a ferry in Fishguard harbour and there’s a snippet of one breaching not far from a boat on the south coast. I wish you luck mate👍
Love the vids mate!
👏👏👏 Nice to see you out and chumming 🦈 lots of love from Manchester ❤
There is no reason why there wouldn't be great whites in UK waters, they predate on seals and now with seal colonies growing around the UK the great whites are sure to turn up. The cold water is no problem as the whites can increase their internal temperature and they roam the oceans, one particular great white named Nicole was found to have swam from South Africa to Australia and back again.
The Indian Ocean is far different to the North Atlantic and UK waters. GW do not come up here and I’m not sure when they will. Seals have been here for decades yet they stay away.
They are seen off the coast of US east coast as the jet stream heats the water there. Much warmer that north east Atlantic
@@Jcoxy2k10 the great white range was thought to reach New Zealand's south Island, yet over 650 kilometres south near the sub Antarctic a man out scuba diving at Campbell island was attacked by a GW that took one arm and badly mauled the other. They can turn up anywhere and I am sure soon there will be one recorded in UK waters.
@@Jcoxy2k10to be fair the GW goes to the arctic so no reason why it would swim in our waters
Living the dream my Son.
I had the same problem with the chasing drone had to send to Germany to fix motor's didn't work . Hopefully I will try next week again love the videos.
I don’t think your gonna find white sharks near the Isle of Man think you would have a better chance off the south coast of England hayling island Cornwall Devon ect
You might well be right there Robbie
Been waiting for this one!! What a viddie
A video of nothing.. wow you were waiting for this 😂
@@ThatCarGuy1983 bro why you got to be so negative? People in the internet smh. And we wonder why high blood pressure is such a problem nowadays
@@schmiddy1473 Why does everybody these days have to be so soft sensitive?
A video of nothing.. wow you were waiting for this 😂
THAT was so negative?
You talk about high blood pressure being such a problem these days well yes if everyone is soooo easily offended then i can see why.. 🤷🏻
Another great video! 👍 😊
Thanks again!
THIS IS AWESOME! please can i come with you next time? id love to learn something.
You need to add an underwater cam, on the side/rear of the boat, underwater selfie stick style.
Great idea Simon! Always learning cheers
Keep up the chumming. Fingers crossed that you find sharks eventually.
Nice drone footage 👍 we did a bit of chumming for the first time last weekend and My daughter caught her first Tope. It was a decent size one and the first one off our Warrior 150. Managed to get a bit on camera to and its on our channel.
I’ll have a look thanks guys
Also, the colour yellow, really attracts great white sharks , might be worth having somehting floating on the water , in that colour
Buddy! Just found your channel. Where have I been. Hooked on vid 1. Am now a subscriber. Thanks😊😊
Welcome aboard!
@@AirbornePirates aye aye Captain!!
Good stuff mate followed u about year ago now from the cookie channel . I really hope u can make a brake through with the great whites…THERE OUT THERE💯
That's the plan!
If you heavily chum the entrance to Langstone Harbour at Easy Hayling island, By the Marina entrance at East Hayling.. you may be surprised. Few sightings over the years and the habitat is perfect with a growing seal population, deep cold channels and warm shallow banks. Late Summer apparently...
Seems to be a hotspot for sightings but I reckon they are small tooth sand tigers as its perfect for them there. Some coverage of Langstone harbour on totally awesome fishing
@@wokenup5273 Little bigger, has been spotted several times.
Very interesting do you think it’s a Gw ?
@@ACshinealight Yes!
Where have you been ?? Good to see you back 👍
Most enjoyable.. thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Love the boat. What puts me off though is mooring and maintenance costs.
Love your enthusiasm mate.
I'll be sure to stick close to rocks when out on the paddle board from now on. 😂Couple of seals halfway between Laxey and Dhoon last night thankfully no sharks about. 🤙
You’ll be plenty safe out there 🙂 I was miles out to see and nothing around
I remember swimming off the coast of Paignton, Devon in the 1970s. I felt something pass under me and saw a very big dark shape. No idea what it was but.....
Lenny Henry?
Great whites have been spotted in both Irish and British waters.. not long ago a man was attacked by a shark off the west coast of Ireland and suffered pretty bad injuries. They have also been spotted in the Irish Sea, the sea between Ireland and UK
⬆️👆
Margate always have thresher sharks and ball sharks some times in British waters
I believe they are there and one day it will be confirmed this comment is before the video starts just in case lol
I love this channel hope to see something soon on here you work hard at this great ❤❤🚒👍
It’s honestly pretty calm out there. I’m surprised you think it’s rough 😂 I lived on a boat for 20 years and the conditions in this video were a blessing
Rough for chumming 👍 get a better slick in calm conditions
Well I wouldn't want to be standing on that boat
I think we gonna need a bigger boat !😂
Regarding your inflatable boat it appears you have a long shaft engine on your dinghy it only requires a short shaft and with a long shaft it will never be fast because your cavitation place is too deep in the water check it out mate👍👍
Great content and channel I have learnt more from you and your channel is far more interesting than any marine biologist. Seems any GW sightings in and around Uk are always basking sharks. I have never seen a picture of a basking shark with a white belly and under body. I can’t wait for first confirmed sighting and I hope it’s you which finds it 👍
I kayaked near a Basking Shark in Peel last summer. Someone filmed me with a drone.
Would love to see this
Great idea, would love to see more
Where’s all the fish gone 😮
Probably more than just one little pesky yellow submarine around... .
Another epic vid, hopefully next time you will drift passed some hungier sharks :D
Challenge accepted lads! I’ll come aboard Blue Spurr soon 🤩🏴☠️
Probably just as well for those ducklings that you didn't in fact entice any sharks. Also sharks are known for test-biting electrical items so it may be a good idea to come up with some kind of protection for your sub and Go-pro. After waiting so long for parts it would be a shame if the sub got chewed up after!
I seen a great white once when off the irish coast it Attacked are boat So my friend chucked a fire extinguisher in its huge mouth luckily we had a rifle on board so we shot the extinguisher and it blew the great white shark up.🦈🐬🦈🐟🦈
Yeah, I’d only do that from a ship the size of a cruise liner. To me you’re on a paddle board 😂 no way I’d be on that boat lol just in case lol
Interesting video.
Nice little boat, too bad you can't sail those in Florida. The boat would sink from the waves.
Imagine coming across an over 3 tonne female Great White, and you are in that little boat .....GAME OVER
I’m not worried about that, unless I’m
On a kayak at the time
@@AirbornePirates I would be she will smash a boat up of that size with ease if she wanted to
My Old man says when heading out towards clay head from the harbour you know your on the Whiting grounds when you can see Maghould lighthouse appear
Maughold even 😂😂😂
Cheers Oscar I’ll give that a spin
@@AirbornePirates Yes he says it was local knowledge with the locals way back in the day.
Be interesting to see if it still works or maybe not the levels of fish there once was.
Great videos, really enjoy .
We had the Hottest temperatures ever in the U.K. in 2022. Sea temperatures around the U.K. are also increasing in the Summer . Plus the increase in seal populations means it’s only of matter of time before Great Whites are confirmed in U.K. waters . It’s just a matter of time before we have a confirmed sighting . They’re probably here already but in very small numbers . They’ve been tracked to the Bay of Biscay . With GWs fitted with transponders .
We had the second hottest day on record this week where I live 🔥
i watched a shark week last night (from 2019) and a dead whale was pulled out to the Celtic Deep and they record around 200 sharks
Yes mate mostly blue sharks if I recall?
love the videos, any other similar boats you would recommend? Struggling to a decent warrior within my budget.
Orkney fast liner are meant to be very good
The start of a journey were hopefully you discover you need a bigger boat 🤙🏻😂
Hey I've heard if u take an empty water bottle
And put in the water and squeeze it so it makes that crinkle like noise attacks sharks!
Just watch you racing another boat the same with a 15 and I can see the backend of your boat digging in watch the footage yourself from your drone and you will see the difference Long Legs doesn’t work with short shaft transom 👍👍
I have also wondered are there Great White in Irish waters,especially off the west coast.
Most definitely, Many Sightings off the coast of Galway
@@MiloManning05⬆️👆🎉
i was out swimming off north wales the other day were i live i can confirm the water is defo getting warmer. i did not have my mask and fins tho so did not see anything.
Thanks for the vid, look forward to more! Quick question, are Ocearch coming or has it been postponed again?
I’ve not heard anything to suggest either 🤷🏻 unfortunately
The cavitation place on the bottom of your engine just above the prop should be in line with the bottom of your boat yours is 2 to 3 inches lower which will slow your boat down terribly just watched it in your video 👍👍👍👍
Thanks buddy mine is a short shaft so I’m a bit confused 😕
Even if you can find a tiger shark that would be really something or even a white tip shark good luck with your hunt
A lot of the biggest great whites are found in stewart island down the bttom of nz im pretty sure they migrate from south africa so could be plausible
