I lost my dad recently and he made nets . Went fishing as a kid with him and loved it . Trying to catch with a carp net at the moment would love a home made net like I remember him using.
Love the Union Flag at the start and really enjoyed your video sir! I will be back to view more! Bought back some memories as I used to go on holiday there as a kid over half a century ago! I hope it hasn't changed as much as where I live!
Cheers for the upload, this brought back childhood memories from 50 years ago! Sat on the council flat steps with Grandad, making push nets. My job was oiling the nets with linseed oil! He used hemp rope from the tips of the beam, tied back to midway up the handle, The net was lashed along the rope with nylon string/chord. We pushed it along the beaches in Hastings, pints and pints of brown shrimp, Nan boiled em up, that was tea.....with bread and butter. No need to shell them, eat the lot, discard the heads and tails. Watch out for weever fish, can cause you grief through their sting. Risk of anaphlactive shock. Cheers again Budweiser.
Takes me back to my courting days, my father-in-law used to shrimp. I remember sitting in front of the telly with the whole family on a Saturday night picking shrimp....good old days .that was in Fleetwood, I now live in Sweden.
I never did push netting but loved fishing with a dropnet on Felixstowe pier when I was a kid. I'd take them home, mum would boil them and we all had shrimp sandwiches for tea. I wish I could still do it but out pier has been closed for years. :-(
In the 50s we used to go St Osyth in a caravan on the beach (seeward side of post 53 floods new seawall and we used to go cockling always tasted so fresh...got hooked on boats and sailing from visiting Maldon Wivenhoe brightingsea etc.. Happy Memories... Now sail on of Bradwell or Titchmarsh..
Good job of building that push net Paul. You doing that brought back memories of my childhood back in the 60's on the North Kent coast around Whitstable where our family had a seaside chalet. Me and my old Dad used to collect cockles and winkels (?), mussels prawns and shrimp. We also dug loads of lugworms to put on 100 hook trot Lines which we set out when the tide was out, baiting them as the tide was flooding so the gulls didn't get the bait. We followed the tide back out and collected the flounders, plaice, eels and occasional bass and codling. Thanks for the memories. Don't get to do much of that these days out here on the Pacific Northwest coast of Oregon, so many rules and regulations plus health scares, bans and biotoxin warnings. Good job the fish are still edible.
Tony Hobbs thank you, I'm glad I'm bringing good memories back for you, I might have to nip over the Dartford bridge into Kent & give that side a go one day!!
Absolutely brilliant,I think you appreciate the food more when you go out and catch it yourself or grow it,once again thank you for your precious time 👍🏴🙏
Learn loads from your videos, I always wanted a go at this,especially the traditional way you done em on toast. you can't beat catch cook eat. Keep it up pal
It is now July 13, 2020 and I haven’t seen a Paul (Mr. Shore Fishing Essex) video in 9 months. Does anyone know what happened to him? He puts together really interesting videos and I, for one, miss him. Thanks, Colin.
What a great video. What a brave man! Icy cold North Sea but worth it to see what you get in your net. Well edited - must try this myself. Cheers mate ☺
I almost missed this one its been a stressful week with all this stormy weather. Shrimp small but so tasty wish we had more here. Great net just the job
Hi, I love shellfish since I was a kid. I grew up in South London (Downham nr Lewisham) and my dad got us crab , shells etc with bread and butter. I have watched loads of sites about catch and cook shellfish in UK and yours is so natural. You admit when your not sure about something and are very careful about conservation. Love it. Wish I could do it but live near Cambridge now so nearest coast is Felixstowe. Nice to hear an accent I relate to! Keep up the good work my son Geoff
Geoff thanks for the kind words, I've been resting on my laurels lately regarding coastal foraging but remarks like yours will encourage me to get out & make some more videos like this. My accent is originally from Bethnal Green so only a couple of hundred yards of river separates us!! Again, thanks for the kind words, all the best, Paul.
"Balls deep in the North Sea!" 🤣 loved that mate, always fascinating to see what you find along your coastline. Hungry again now too, cheers for that! 🤣👍
Hey Paul, you’re an amazing fellow! How many people do you know who can make people, all around the globe, drool? Yessir, I am so envious. I have heard of potted shrimp but never really knew what it was. I thought it was something like fish paste but made with shrimp. Now I know, thanks to you. Your shrimp net appears to work really well, so I wish you either insulated hip waders or warm seas! Good on you Paul. Cheers mate, Colin.
Cheers Colin, I'm not sure I done the potted shrimps as much justice as they deserve but I had a crack at it!! I nearly didn't do anything at all that day, I'm not as intrepid as I used to be!! All the best, Paul.
Cheers Colin, sorry to hear of your loss, the last decade has been a nightmare I've lost 3 people instrumental in my life but thankfully not my wife, all the best mate, Paul.
Loved this! Thanks!! I bet someone will have said this before ...... when you pot the shrimps, melt the butter as you did, add a tiny bit of salt, a few good grinds of black pepper and between half and a whole teaspoon (depending on how many shrimps) of ground mace. Then put the shrimps into the butter, give a stir and then pour into the (ramekin?) dish. Mace is the skin of the nutmeg and has a more gentle, more subtle taste. Have fun!!
Down at old Leigh, cockle sheds, years ago bought them by the pint in muslin cloth. Never peeled any size, just as stated, hold head and tail eat the rest including shell. Even though small brown shrimp have so much flavour compared to modern farmed almost tasteless prawns. Old Leigh different now, the Dutch got hold of most local boat shellfishing licenses, now all the local seafood goes straight to Holland and a couple of the old cockle sheds sell expensive market sourced fish and seafood. I think the push et is the only way to get FRESH local brown shrimp.
I buy potted shrimp from southport (live near the southcoast) it never occurred to pot my own! As a result i picked up a few nets and im taking my 10 yr old son out in the camper van tommorow at 5am to have a go down at new romney in kent. Hope we do well enough to bring some home... if not itll be cockles
Hey my guy. Are you going to be continuing your videos now that lockdown is easing up. Would be great to see ya out and about catching some edible wildlife again.
Walton on the Naze, my favourite holiday spot, as a child, remember my dad buying a coddling off a fisherman who cleaned it in sea, then went home to Nayland for cod cutlets and thick bread and butter ! Happy Days.
Pretty neat to see one eat what we call "Grass Shrimp" in Southern Maryland, USA. We catch them by the hundreds but only use for bait. Will definitely take the time to prepare as you have. Thanks for the vid!
Paul, watching you eat that potted shrimp certainly made my mouth water lol. One of my fav things to have on toast when I can get the smaller shrimp. Latvian Liverwurst is my other fav topping on toast. Good video Paul, thankyou. Michelle
Hi mate just stumbled upon you channel by accident, l must say I'm pleased l did, working my way through your videos now their good, only downside is l live around the Humber wish we were closer as l would love to have some fishing days out, l think l could learn a lot from you, take care and keep up the good work👍
John Robinson thanks for the kind words, I plan to visit other parts of the country in future so you never know, a trip up north isn't out of the question, I'm just so busy working at the moment that I can't even plan my next local adventure, all the best pal!
Another pukka vid mate! From one Essex boy to another, you’ve provided the inspiration for me to get out and do some coastal foraging myself. Potted shrimp is destination No.1! Keep up the good work mate, glad your back and posting again. 👍🏻
Lovely video and I’m😍😋😋😍if only the smell was as good as the sound on my iPad🤷♂️🧐maybe one day with🧐🧐technology. I’m making my own push net🤷♂️🤔the only thing that I have to buy is the netting🧐BUT that’s cheap enough🤷♂️got enough wood around plus a sturdy extension pole for the main pushing part already. Will video how it goes👌👍
We call the Krabben in Germany, we fish them with a simular net but we put rolls on it and a smal stick in front, so they spring up and got catched in the net and less sea weed went into the net
These are also super popular in Belgium, personally I find them way better tasting than bigger prawns. Over here, the traditional way of catching them is on horseback, with a net tied behind the horse.
In Germany we called them "Nordseekrabben". And in the Netherlands they're called "Hollandse Garnalen". I beginn last year with foraging in the dutch province of Zeeland, what is 160 Kilometer or 100 Miles east from Essex on the Continental side. I saw the Videos of Smash Fishing and then I desided to Start Coastal foraging. Now I saw this youtube channel and I see what for food you can foraging on the other side of the North Sea. In Zeeland you can Catch mostly Venuscalms, Razorcalms, and in the Oosterschelde Oysters and Miesmuschel(Mussel?) The Black Mussel, I don't know the english Name. Lobsters and Crabs aren't allowed to Catch.
Thorsten was geht ab? Thanks for your comments, If we're talking about the same mussel, here in the UK we call it the Blue Mussel aka the Common Mussel, I will try to bring more foraging videos to RUclips but finding the time lately is difficult!! Danke!
Shore Fishing Essex great to see you back I’ve just read a few comments and I think I get the reason for your absence, sorry for whatever has happened,
Met you and your mate's down in st Austell Travelodge last year was good having the craic with you guys about tuna fishing still yet to book a trip with the lads myself any pointers on who you went with would be a great help anyway tight lines mate enjoy watching your videos 👍
Hi Santa😅😅👍, haha you really are going for it, the fishing thing,ish 👍👍✊✊✊ in all that seaweed,there could be amber😮I find it here in Denmark all the time,in seaweed like that, and after stormy weather, great video✊
My dad used to eat the small brown shrimp whole. Shell head and all haha. The bigger ones he would peel so only the tiny ones that he couldnt be bothere
Nice one Paul great video and 100% improvement with the new push net, one of the great things about shrimping is the other little interesting creatures you get as by catch it makes you realise what's swimming round in the shallows. A few pints of benacol a couple of laps round the block should help you digest all that butter mate! 😂🤣🦐🦐🦐🍽😉👍
Loved this vid Paul. The life of a foraging youtuber, have to get out and do it.. and look what happens 👍🏾 👍🏾 Good to see the abs of steel like mine and adding your food to the butter. And love the new camera, way better footage!!
Hi Mike You need to do a NZ version . As kids we used to catch little shrimp in the rock pools on the Manukau down they went raw shells & all ,plenty of rock oysters as well.👍
- Brilliant video mate. The 3 type of prawns/shrimps you got there. Brown, Crevette Gris? And Palomar prawn? 😛 I just know the ones with a spiny horn as common prawns? Now I’ve seen them in your video I know that I had a few the other day. Every days a school day. 😉👍🏻🦐
Cheers John we're learning all the time mate!! Palaemon prawns are what people normally call rock prawns or as you say common prawns, there's a few different kinds around the UK, the one you get down your way is probably Palaemon Serratus, we get a few of those in Essex but mostly we get palaemon elegans, they're very similar, the teeth on the rostrum (horn) tell them apart, I only know as I have a guide book which I use to tell them apart! The Crevette Gris is just translated from French as the grey shrimp which is the same species as our Brown Shrimp!! I can see now the way I edited it made it confusing!!
Great videos chap, I don't normally comment on RUclips but your videos have spurred me on to get back out there after a long period of illness, I managed a trip to Walton peir a couple of weeks ago after watching your vid, picked the only day the fish weren't there though lol, . Planning to hit Felixstowe beach next week for some much needed relaxation & maybe head up to Aldeburgh. Dunno about others but lip smacking just highlights how tasty that fresh food is. I say more lip smacking lmao! Thanks again chap, it's well worth the effort it takes to produce this sort of content. Keep it up.
Ronnie wonder thanks for the kind words & I hope your illness doesn't hinder you from getting out there & doing a bit of fishing, good luck pal, all the best.
That looks lovely gubbly.not tried that way. Been scrimping all my life still got net in garage am 72 but not tried potted shrimps looks good...done no if could resist the peeling and not eating .ha ha ha ha
Fortun favours the brave mate I did laugh at you freezing ya dangly bits off while i was tucking into my roast pork and crackling Loved this video mate really good work and the shrimp looked f###ing banging
Brilliant mate, I would love to live near the coast, would you forage for crayfish or anything else in the thames in central london or teddington or do you think the water is too dirty?
You must have got down to the beach early as I did not see any beach towels and people walking around in bikinis and budgie smugglers,they must of had hangovers from the pop up beach bars from the night before 🤪..great vid as usual 👍
Good to see plenty of juvenile fish Many years ago Fairbourne bear barmouth on holiday saw guy shrimp netting so full of shrimp you couldnt lift them and a few feet deeper it packed flounder and whiteaait needless to say lots other fish feeding on bounty including terns
hi I'm Intrested in a bit of coastal foraging but never done it just wondering where to find all the info on what's good to cook and eat and what isn't just wondering if you have any tips or where you get your information on it
Another cracking video mate. A lot of effort put into making it too. But you reaped your reward!...Looking forward to your next one. By the way, what has happened to all of your old clips? I wanted to see the green shore crab episode as I still havent tried them...All the best mate....
Jed Pugh many thanks my friend, I don't know what happened to the shore crab vids as I didn't delete the videos on purpose, when I came back on here I was looking to upload them again but couldn't find them on my pc or my external hard drive, which is where I thought they would have been, I might have to install some data retrieval software or just make the vids again somehow, although I wouldn't want to go through all that bother of making the crab bisque again!!
@@shorefishingessex It was the way you and your boy munched through the fried crabs mate .They looked bloody delicious. I'm sure that I can remember how to do them if I think hard enough lol. BTW I hear that you have had a loss in the family. So sorry buddy.
Shore Fishing Essex tar mate I somtimes struggle to think there’s one in there for me, this will be like season 5 think . See what happens I’m thinking of dividing me time on the lake and rivers. You over there this season ? If so good luck mate
I turned it down mate, gotta concentrate on work & sea fishing!! Lee will be over there, he had the yearly ticket so you might bump into him over there unfortunately!! I do love it over there it's good for a run early season but I think if anyone can catch decent pike from rivers it's you guys, a decent twenty is hard to come by these days would love to see you snag one, all the best pal
Would you like some shrimp with that butter ;) ? Great video thought, safe some money for waders and at least this way you don't risk getting a cold, btw isn't shrimping more of a summer kind of activity?
@@shorefishingessex sounds like i should be making a trip to walton or somewhere near by as well, i been looking for places to do a bit of foraging and your videos are pretty good especially since im near thames too, you fished for flounder before ?
I lost my dad recently and he made nets . Went fishing as a kid with him and loved it . Trying to catch with a carp net at the moment would love a home made net like I remember him using.

Thank god your back ! Where the hell have you been ? Best channel on here !!
steve burrows long story, good to be back, thank you sir!!
Shore Fishing Essex great to see you back I’ve just read a few comments and I think I get the reason for your absence, sorry for whatever has happened,
Met you and your mate's down in st Austell Travelodge last year was good having the craic with you guys about tuna fishing still yet to book a trip with the lads myself any pointers on who you went with would be a great help anyway tight lines mate enjoy watching your videos 👍
Will be interesting to see how long that MDF lasts in sea water.
Bill Moss lol!! Not long I should imagine, I'll rebuild again with whatever old crap I find lying around!!
Hi Santa😅😅👍, haha you really are going for it, the fishing thing,ish 👍👍✊✊✊ in all that seaweed,there could be amber😮I find it here in Denmark all the time,in seaweed like that, and after stormy weather, great video✊
Helle Dahl Kristensen Ho Ho Ho, may I be the first to wish you a very merry Christmas!! I will look out for the amber next time I do this, Thanks!!
@@shorefishingessex haha,yess thank you sir😂😂😂👍👍
Top Quality as always... nice one matey keep the vids coming
T_P Outsider thank you, will try!!
Great video
Aj Simpson Thank you!
Try adding some powdered chilli or cayenne pepper to the butter when you make your potted shrimp. It’s a game changer.
My dad used to eat the small brown shrimp whole. Shell head and all haha. The bigger ones he would peel so only the tiny ones that he couldnt be bothere
Good stuff!
Thank you kindly sir!
Nice one Paul great video and 100% improvement with the new push net, one of the great things about shrimping is the other little interesting creatures you get as by catch it makes you realise what's swimming round in the shallows. A few pints of benacol a couple of laps round the block should help you digest all that butter mate! 😂🤣🦐🦐🦐🍽😉👍
Lol cheers Damo, I'm thinking of getting a defibrillator hung up on the wall outside my front door!!
@@shorefishingessex 🤣😂😉👍
Loved this vid Paul. The life of a foraging youtuber, have to get out and do it.. and look what happens 👍🏾 👍🏾 Good to see the abs of steel like mine and adding your food to the butter. And love the new camera, way better footage!!
Lol cheers Mike, I've definitely got to go on a diet after that mate!!
Hi Mike
You need to do a NZ version .
As kids we used to catch little shrimp in the rock pools on the Manukau down they went raw shells & all ,plenty of rock oysters as well.👍
- Brilliant video mate. The 3 type of prawns/shrimps you got there. Brown, Crevette Gris? And Palomar prawn? 😛 I just know the ones with a spiny horn as common prawns? Now I’ve seen them in your video I know that I had a few the other day. Every days a school day. 😉👍🏻🦐
Cheers John we're learning all the time mate!! Palaemon prawns are what people normally call rock prawns or as you say common prawns, there's a few different kinds around the UK, the one you get down your way is probably Palaemon Serratus, we get a few of those in Essex but mostly we get palaemon elegans, they're very similar, the teeth on the rostrum (horn) tell them apart, I only know as I have a guide book which I use to tell them apart! The Crevette Gris is just translated from French as the grey shrimp which is the same species as our Brown Shrimp!! I can see now the way I edited it made it confusing!!
Great videos chap, I don't normally comment on RUclips but your videos have spurred me on to get back out there after a long period of illness, I managed a trip to Walton peir a couple of weeks ago after watching your vid, picked the only day the fish weren't there though lol, . Planning to hit Felixstowe beach next week for some much needed relaxation & maybe head up to Aldeburgh. Dunno about others but lip smacking just highlights how tasty that fresh food is. I say more lip smacking lmao! Thanks again chap, it's well worth the effort it takes to produce this sort of content. Keep it up.
Ronnie wonder thanks for the kind words & I hope your illness doesn't hinder you from getting out there & doing a bit of fishing, good luck pal, all the best.
hey man just got this video today ... wasnt sure if you were posting anymore ... hope all is well
Hi Mate where do u gone ? No more videos 🧐
That looks lovely gubbly.not tried that way. Been scrimping all my life still got net in garage am 72 but not tried potted shrimps looks good...done no if could resist the peeling and not eating .ha ha ha ha
Keith it was lovely thanks, traditional Northern way to eat them I think!
Fortun favours the brave mate
I did laugh at you freezing ya dangly bits off while i was tucking into my roast pork and crackling
Loved this video mate really good work and the shrimp looked f###ing banging
gavin McNamara cheers mate, glad I manned up in the end!!
Brilliant mate, I would love to live near the coast, would you forage for crayfish or anything else in the thames in central london or teddington or do you think the water is too dirty?
You must have got down to the beach early as I did not see any beach towels and people walking around in bikinis and budgie smugglers,they must of had hangovers from the pop up beach bars from the night before 🤪..great vid as usual 👍
alexmahon lol, Walton's not the best place for bikinis & budgie smugglers!! I dread to think of looking at myself in the mirror wearing them!!
can you do a video on how to make rthe net?
Hi mate what carp net did you use?
Good to see plenty of juvenile fish
Many years ago Fairbourne bear barmouth on holiday saw guy shrimp netting so full of shrimp you couldnt lift them and a few feet deeper it packed flounder and whiteaait needless to say lots other fish feeding on bounty including terns
hope you shared :-)
Lord Faladar I did!!
hi I'm Intrested in a bit of coastal foraging but never done it just wondering where to find all the info on what's good to cook and eat and what isn't just wondering if you have any tips or where you get your information on it
I forgot to mention im in Kent (whitstable/hernebay) so hoping to get some of the same as you but don't know where to start
Where do you buy your shrimp netting? Can't seem to find anyone selling it.
You want shrimp with your butter brother! 🤣👍🏻
Crockett lol!!
Another cracking video mate. A lot of effort put into making it too. But you reaped your reward!...Looking forward to your next one. By the way, what has happened to all of your old clips? I wanted to see the green shore crab episode as I still havent tried them...All the best mate....
Jed Pugh many thanks my friend, I don't know what happened to the shore crab vids as I didn't delete the videos on purpose, when I came back on here I was looking to upload them again but couldn't find them on my pc or my external hard drive, which is where I thought they would have been, I might have to install some data retrieval software or just make the vids again somehow, although I wouldn't want to go through all that bother of making the crab bisque again!!
@@shorefishingessex It was the way you and your boy munched through the fried crabs mate .They looked bloody delicious. I'm sure that I can remember how to do them if I think hard enough lol. BTW I hear that you have had a loss in the family. So sorry buddy.
Decent as always matey 🏅
Cheers pal, good luck this Pike season, hope you get a twenty mate!
Shore Fishing Essex tar mate
I somtimes struggle to think there’s one in there for me, this will be like season 5 think . See what happens I’m thinking of dividing me time on the lake and rivers. You over there this season ? If so good luck mate
I turned it down mate, gotta concentrate on work & sea fishing!! Lee will be over there, he had the yearly ticket so you might bump into him over there unfortunately!! I do love it over there it's good for a run early season but I think if anyone can catch decent pike from rivers it's you guys, a decent twenty is hard to come by these days would love to see you snag one, all the best pal
MDF in the sea ? one use only ?
Yeah
Would you like some shrimp with that butter ;) ? Great video thought, safe some money for waders and at least this way you don't risk getting a cold, btw isn't shrimping more of a summer kind of activity?
Ianov Petrisor Moroca thanks, Shrimping is meant to best in the Autumn, so I've heard!
@@shorefishingessex sounds like i should be making a trip to walton or somewhere near by as well, i been looking for places to do a bit of foraging and your videos are pretty good especially since im near thames too, you fished for flounder before ?
