Just started lure and float fishing after watching your vids after many years with beach caster up here in South West Scotland. Even got my wife into it, bonus! Caught some nice pollack, wrasse, coalfish, doggies, mackerel, odd conga etc. off the rocks. Only started Aug last year, but think I now prefer lure and float, for one thing you don’t have to break your back digging worms! Enjoy your vids, keep it up.👍🏼
That is awesome! Yeah, it's one of that attractions to me, not being tied to needing bait and not having to carry a ton of gear around. Not a bad species count for such a short time fishing that style. Roll on Spring and Tight Lines🎣👍
This is a great video. Well done with the stuck Pollack - very inspiring 'cos I have been stuck before and 'not stuck it out'. I will now. Thanks for posting fella. I don't expect to read about you washing up after a fall any time soon. Cheers! Dave.
Good days fishing at this time of year again. Nice fish. It looked quite calm compared to the swells today. I Got as far as Dunbar today heading for Coldingham. Saw the waves, then headed back to Cockenzie in the firth of forth were it was a bit more sheltered but the fishing was shit. Hey ho thats fishing🖒🎣
Stevie Wright yeah it was a canny session and the calm seas made the fishing comfortable for this time of year. I use magicseaweed. Com to give a pretty reliable indication of what the swell is doing although it's not always accurate. Thanks for your comment again
Kc92 Trust me The man has quite a dangerous climb to get down to these marks but as he shows. Its worth it most of the time. I think most people would have second thoughts just looking down the cliffs to these spots especially on your own. Its not for those that fear heights but its a trully breathtaking, stunning area🖒
i did one of them to me mum and dad donkeys yrs ago Bet she was frantic Youll be hearing about that for yrs to come haha Film as good as ever bro Keep smiling and safe mate you and yours
Great vid as always bud. Fishing looks fantastic up there. I might have to give it a lash up there one weekend. Me and the missus are off up to the isle of skye next week so hope to bag a few while I'm there .
John Jenkinson it's worth a visit mate but the fishing can be hit or miss. Dan was back the next day after the one in this vid and had really poor fishing. Good luck on Skye, I hear the fishing is amazing up there!
I have been trying some metals and various spinners of the rocks and back of the piers but I haven't caught a single fish apart from one mackerel the other day. The last decent fish I caught was in late October then all the fish seemed to vanish.
Nice one Nathan 😎 I wish people if they are going to take a fish for the table would do the right thing and use a priest right away instead of throwing them in a bag to flap about, annoys the life out if me...
Colin Mccallum I totally agree with you, can't stand to see that either. What you can't see on the vid though is that Dan did dispatch the fish but he used a knife through the head/brain rather than a priest, then he gutted it before he put it in the bag.
Smashed it again! Glad ya safe and sound, shame about the body, the rnli and coast guard do a fantastic job. On a lighter note that's one of my favourite tunes. 😀
Always a joy to watch, but could I suggest that you might dedicate one outing to safety & awareness when fishing in your great locations that , for the less wary there is danger afoot. Your films are fantastic & your local knowledge appears to be second to none. The RNLI have excellent advice. I do I no wish to be a killjoy, your films are worthy of sponsorship from a like minded Angler of means.. You never know. Cheers. & thanks for the pleasure that watching your exploits has given me.
It's my pleasure and glad you like them. I do meet alot of people who have seen my videos and have tried to get to the marks but often turn back due to the hazardous nature of the area, so it does make sense to do a safety video to help people fish safely. I'll see what I can do. I m not sure what you mean by sponsorship, but if you'd like to reach me off air then my email is slippylimpets@outlook.com. Sorry for the delayed reply and thanks again for your comment. Tight lines!
Another great video I'm toying with the idea of trying on Sunday Might be going by myself so it will probably just be down on petticoe wick Sounds like it was a walkers body such a shame it's a scarey place for if you've never been before
bry01289 thanks for your comment and glad you liked the vid 👍. There's a bit of swell forecast for Sunday but it's dropping off so it might be OK for you. Good luck and tight lines
I bet your mrs was relieved to hear your voice , well done on the session , lovely fish .. ps You should join a group on Facebook called saltwater Lure Fishing 👍🏻
Yet another great video, those Zen lures seem to be the ones the Pollock favour. After hearing of the body found a thought had crossed my mind. Do you wear or consider wearing a life jacket or buoyancy aid whilst fishing ? With such difficult terrain I would think it’s easy to stumble and fall in the water. Good choice of music by the way, keep the videos coming.
Stephen Cook yep, most sea fish like the Zen, I've even seen them catch plenty of wrasse in North Wales. Anglers wearing life jackets seems to be a hot topic at the moment, I have considered using some sort of pfd especially fishing remote areas, but I haven't found anything suitable for my needs yet. The self inflating style are comfortable to wear on land Nd great if you're in the water for a long time, or have hit your head on the way in, but they make it nearly impossible to climb back out of the water with that huge airbag hindering arm movement. A normal foam pfd seems like a good option but they're not all that comfortable to hike in...
Ey up slippy ... brother and I are looking at coming up to fast castle this bank holiday weekend, how do condition look? Do you think it will be worth the 3 hour trip?
Alec Tindal Hi Alec, the fishing has been really poor for April, I've had more blanks up that way this year compared to other years, so probs worth waiting for the weather/sea to warm up a bit. Not sure where you're based but personally i'd head to the west coast for some more reliable action. Hope this helps 👍
as a newcomer to this type of fishing but looking to give it a go what lures should i be looking to buy as there seems to be loads on the market, any advice would be helpful
Russ Meek thanks for your comment Russ! Lure fishing is all about trial and error and depends heavily on the area you're fishing but I try to use a lure that imitates what I think the fish might be eating eg. If there are sand eels about then I'll use a sandeel lure. But if all else fails then shiny metal lure always seems to work well.l Hope this helps and tight lines!
Hi mate, just subbed, love it. Result for March like. I take it you're into very deep water there? I generally wouldn't have any luck on lures this end until June! That's a canny net, do you know the name of it? Been looking for a good rock landing net. Final question, what's that Zen metal lure you're using?
Thanks for the sub!!👍👍 I thought the same about lure fishing in winter until I gave it a go. The trick is to fish really slowly. Yeah, it's around 16m deep so that probably helps with the winter fishing. The net wasn't mine but I think it's called a Diawa Mobile Landing Net Handle and then you add your own net to it. Very handy and I keep meaning to buy myself one. The lure is a one of the most successfull i've used and it's the cheapest at about £1.50 each, it has re-branded from the Zen to RazorClaw Silver Minnow 28g, they've been out of stock for a year but I found them on ebay last week! Hope this helps and tigh lines!
Ps get an external mic (something like a rode) it will cut out the wind and background noise (if used with the furry sock type cover). Plus they ain’t expensive.
I explain at the end of the vid but maybe not so well. Unfortunately a guy committed suicide at the car park, hence the life boats, and the police thought it was me so sent a police car round to my house to tell my missus the bad news. She wasn't best pleased.

Quality vid as usual bud...every bit of that location just looks perfect for us fishermen 😁 keep the vids coming👌

A would climb anything in the world to get to a mark like that😂😂😂🖒👌
Lol
I shite myself every time i go there🤣🤣🤣
Great tune when Dan turns up 👌
That first Pollock was nice,didn't think ya were going to get it n ya did fairplay
Me neither, it took nearly 20 minutes to get the f***er out!
What was happening 100m away??
A guy had jumped off the cliff, it took the emergency services a day to get him out off the rocks, and they told my missus it was me.
i did one of them to me mum and dad donkeys yrs ago Bet she was frantic Youll be hearing about that for yrs to come haha Film as good as ever bro Keep smiling and safe mate you and yours
Yeah you're right, she still won't let it lie. Tight lines🎣👍

Don’t know if anyone will remember this but this song plays in the nightclub in goldeneye for Wii stunning fish btw.
Love a bit of Golden eye, one of my favourite games!
Cracking video and nice tunes 🎣 🎧 A well fought battle with that stubborn pollock too👍🏻
Bram Booth there are so few bites during winter, got to fight for each one smile. Thanks again Bram! 👍
I have been trying some metals and various spinners of the rocks and back of the piers but I haven't caught a single fish apart from one mackerel the other day. The last decent fish I caught was in late October then all the fish seemed to vanish.
You need to find the deeper water after october , where he is fishing is from 30 to even 80 feet deep within casting distance of the shore.
grant1133 aye I've got a few spots in mind then cheers, hopefully get a few more fish.
Nice one Nathan 😎 I wish people if they are going to take a fish for the table would do the right thing and use a priest right away instead of throwing them in a bag to flap about, annoys the life out if me...

"Use a priest".. What do you want to do read it it's last rights .. 😛
Totally agree, do the right thing immediately- kill them quickly & gut straight away :)
If you let them suffer it also taints the flavour
Been looking forward to this! Great fishing and well edited.
Lewis Anderson cheers bud!!
Smashed it again! Glad ya safe and sound, shame about the body, the rnli and coast guard do a fantastic job. On a lighter note that's one of my favourite tunes. 😀
fishing fanatics north east cheers mate! Yeah they do, makes me feel a bit safer hitting these marks alone. Tight lines bud
Hi
This is a great video inspires me to try winter fishing
Freddie Summers give it a go! What's the worst that can happen...

Marks don't get much better than this 👍 🎣

Nice to see you again bud great vid 👍🎣
hey mate what net you guys using pls
Sorry for the delay! It's a Daiwa Telescopic rock fishing Net Handle, not sure on the actual net model
Good vid bud where abouts was that. I have come over from Canada and want to do some good fishing.
It's in south east Scotland bud but I'm not sure it's worth coming all the way from Canada!
@@SlippyLimpets haha I have been here 20years but I'm in South England so Scotland is a bit of a drive for a days fishing.
Nice vid!
Hi mate what would you say the biggest swell you could fish that mark would be?
I bet your mrs was relieved to hear your voice , well done on the session , lovely fish .. ps You should join a group on Facebook called saltwater Lure Fishing 👍🏻
Fishing UK Online She was mate! I think I've already joined that group, just don't go on FB that much
Do the fish survive you releasing them like that ? Really enjoying the videos mate keep up the good work
Yeah mate, as long as they land head first, they swim off strongly. Think I gives them a rush of oxygen and away they go
Glad your safe 👌poor guy man
going fishing this Saturday at torness area, any tips for a first timer at sea fishing?

Cracking vid mate and an outstanding music choice for the intro....
Hi, mate. Good to see you at shore. What is the title of the intro music?
Fisherman In Norway _Living In Norway its good to be back on the shore! The title track is call Intro by The X X. Cracking little tune!
Slippy Limpets Thanks!
Fisherman In Norway _Living In Norway no problem mate, tight lines 🎣
Slippy Limpets in a month! I will!
I’m heading up that way tomorrow, there’s supposed to be a good swell on . Is there any marks that’ll still fish ?
Hi Friend, could you pls tell me where exactly is the place you are fishing from. its very beautiful. Thankx
Lol he won't give that away ;)

@@SlippyLimpets Awesome advice mate. 16m - wow!!! You're lucky.
What lure are u using?
It was a while back but think it was cheap spinner called a 28g Razor Claw Silver Minnow.
Which Zen lures do you use to catch the cod ?
I still refer to them as Zen (I use the 28g one) but they've changed their name to Razor Claw Minnows for some reason. Hope this helps 👍
Ps get an external mic (something like a rode) it will cut out the wind and background noise (if used with the furry sock type cover). Plus they ain’t expensive.
Stephen Quinn yeah the wind noise is a killer. Good advice mate, I've got one on the shopping list. Just need to stop buying lures!
Good luck with trying to stop buying lures, especially with the better weather on the way.
Stephen Quinn Ha! Tell me about it mate!
Keep the vids coming mate. Stay safe.
Nice Vid Slippy is this back over fast castle way? We are up there in May 👍
Alec Tindal just south of fast Castle at St Abbs. Good luck and tight lines 🤞 🎣
Where is this place mr sleepy?
It's in the south east of Scotland
Great video.Must take quite a bit of effort. Glad the body wasn't yours!

Police? Lol
I explain at the end of the vid but maybe not so well. Unfortunately a guy committed suicide at the car park, hence the life boats, and the police thought it was me so sent a police car round to my house to tell my missus the bad news. She wasn't best pleased.

First lol
lol, first time I've had a first!
