Hiya Alex, another tough session, that Flounder is one more fish than I`ve landed in my last three trips, same amount of weed though haha . I watch a lot of the east coast vids and it seems pretty lean at the moment , gonna have a go with the lures at the Brigg in a couple of weeks ( not going anywhere near those steps ) gives me the butterflies every time I see you use them in your vid
Yeah it's been a quiet summer since that initial run in June really. Those ladders aren't that bad looking back. Although they will probably still make my stomach turn next time I go 🤣
I think that spell in June lulled us in to a false sense that we were in for a bumper summer mate. Certainly been very quiet since those big blows in July unfortunately
They really didn't seem to want anything you put out there, and some nice bait to. Impressive edit/video turnaround. I was down at the shore for a couple of hours to this morning checking out some new hard plastic lures. No luck, but i managed to get a dog back it's ball with a top water lure! Nice one. 👍 (oh and crap loads of seaweed here to in Weymouth)
Baffles me, there doesn't even seem to be any doggies about at the minute. You can normally rely on a doggie or a whiting to save a blank! Good work on the retrieve. My dogs would never leave a ball behind 😅
Good vid mate! Comfy fishing on the Humber usually. Paull especially. I’m off to Cayton for a night next week, going to try the brigg with the lure gear. Top man
Tough session, Wales got battered by the Bokes, tough day for England against Ireland. Not looking good for the World Cup. Never mind down West Wales in two weeks. 4 days of fishing and camping. Going all out this year. Taking all my gear, beach casters , lure rods and fly rods. Tight lines.
I was expecting a rough tournament when the ERU decided to chop Eddie less than a year before a major tournament...but this is bad! Anyway, West Wales sounds great! We are away next weekend. I have to travel to Bristol for work, so making the most of it. Not sure on Wales or chesil yet though.
loving your vids as always. I would be interested to know how you learned to edit. I'm a bit of philistine on computer stuff. Was it try/fail/try again (and again) and bingo. or some snazzy software? Or combo of both? Maybe vid content for you? showing noddies like me. Anyway..... Thanks Alex, always appreciate your hard work bringing these vids to us. You're closer to the 10k followers when you can get the boat!! All the best Justin
Aup, Justin! It was a bit of a mix to be honest. I started off using the basic software on my phone and stitching videos together on there. Then when I started using a gopro I had to use the laptop. There's more tools on the basic laptop editing apps than the phone. Just as you get used to using certain bits, you start looking at what the other tools do too. The other thing I do is watch loads of RUclips and watch more how they construct their videos at times than the content itself...geeky but sometimes I see something and think that's cool, then just go an Google or search in the tools I have how to add things in. Bit of a politicians answer but hope it helps a bit. You can always take any old couple of videos you have right now on your phone and try editing them on your phone, there's no cost and nothing to lose really.
Hi Alex, wow, I really didn't expect your reply in such detail as I know your busy with a young family, work and putting out your great vids. Really good advice (that I'll take onboard) and very much appreciated. Keep doing what your doing pal. There are clearly a lot of people like me who love your content. looking forward to many more vids and you hitting 10k subscribers and then the boat!! Hahaha. All the best mate. Justin
You're quite welcome mate. I don't usually reply instantly, but I do try and reply to everyone as best I can. I think I need to start finding a few more fish to get to that 10k mark 😅
If you're going for cms I would fish no more than size 4 hooks on a 2/3 hook clip down about 100mtrs out, bait about 2cm sand eel tipped with squid for whiting or mackrel for flatties. Hope you kick arse
Thanks dave! It's set rigs, Mike has provided us each with the same pack of Rigs. Mark has provided us both the same pack of bait. So far it's too close to call
Wish the wind was in my face today, stupid SW wind was blowing left to right along the north wales coast. Still managed 2 Bass but was a pig to fish in. P.S don't bother with the Sakuma Circle hooks, their Octopus hooks are a better Pennel choice since it has a bent eye.
How do you get a little flounder to hook “properly” on a circle hook? Here in Northumberland it doesn’t matter how small the flounder, or how big the hook, be it circled crab or Aberdeen , they are all swallowed ending up gut hooked. Greedy beggers
Looking forward to the fish off mate best of luck not that you need it you'll smash it 👍 tight lines
Cheers Kevin, it was a close run thing
Nice video, been a shed load of weed further up in North East Scotland. Good Flounder saved the day 😊
Thanks! Weed seems to be country wide at the minute mate. Very strange!
Got to be in it to win it,cracking sunrise helps 💪🐟🎣
Yeah great day to be out. Be back there soon for the coddies
All the best in competition.
Cheers Mel 👍🏼

great video alex well done on not blanking it’s been murder on are coast at the moment mate 🎣🎣👍

Hard lines mate, at least you saved the blank💪 hopefully more to come when you take Shane on🤞
It's tough going on the East Coast atm, that's for sure! Might venture south this weekend in the hopes of a few more fish.
@@theawfulangler tight lines if you do mate 🤞
Top effort, looking forward to seeing the video with Shane , should be a good one 👍👍🤠
It was close, but we had a good laugh.
@@theawfulangler I bet he ate your sandwiches while you weren’t looking 😂😂😂

Congratulations on meeting your challenge and on avoiding the blank. Pity you didn't get that Flounder's big brother, would have made a nice supper!
Yeah I'm still waiting on a table sized flattie. Although I'd rather it come from the coast than the river Leon
Where is your merchandise available 👍👍
Only doing caps, beanies, and bucket hats atm. The hoodies frankly gave me too much headache, but they might be coming back soon.
Good vid mate! Comfy fishing on the Humber usually.
Paull especially.
I’m off to Cayton for a night next week, going to try the brigg with the lure gear.
Top man
Good luck mate, watch those swells on the Brigg
When is the king of the coast video out
Some nifty quick editing there.
Got to say shore fishing outside of October to march just seems like savage amusement. Maybe its just where I live.
It's such hit and miss at the minute. It's either packed with hounds and rays or desolate.

Nice day apart from the Wind, at least you got a flounder.
Yeah cracking day. Think I'd rather have rain over wind though 🤔
Hard one mate but not a blank 👍 tight lines bud 🎣👊💪
Thanks buddy

@@theawfulangler I love watching Shane but I want you to kick his arse lol
Hi alex you ok pal, next time your my side of the river in the winter, would love a session mate. All the best from GRIMSBY.
100% Carl mate. I wouldn't mind giving the wall a go this winter. So will give you a shout
Wich part of the Humber are you fishing 🤔? good luck mate tight lines 🎣🐟
North East corner mate

I really like the crab hooks, too. I have a load of Rigs already. But definitely think I need to make the change when the next order goes in!
The Octopus hook with the out turned eye is what you need buddy. @@theawfulangler
Cheers mate can’t wait see if an Awful Angler can whip the Cod Fathers ass, good luck mate, thanks for the video. You take care and tight lines 👍🎣🎣
Cheers Stephen! So far we are neck and neck 🫣

I'll be honest that's the first time ever haha most of them have almost 💩 the hook out the other end by the time you get them in 🤣
@@theawfulangler 😂😂😂😂
We tried Friday alex. Was a nightmare mate. Weed killing sessions at the min buddy😢
Managing to avoid the weed at Cowden mate.
@@theawfulangler aw fantastic pal. Iv text shane but dont know any results?
Fished makro this morning, blanked
Seems very quiet on the east coast at the minute...saving it for winter season 🤞🏼
@@theawfulangler rods are packed away until Hull fair arrives
