Thanks, Douglas, that was another very enjoyable video. You're a natural at this. All the best.
@@andyaveyard Thanks Andy, appreciate that mate👍
I'm a complete beginner. Went there yesterday. Lovely drive over the rollercoaster hills. Nearly fell onto the beach, the rope saved my bacon. Made 2 birds nests. Couldn't cast in a straight line. Lost 2 sets of tackle on the ledge. Cracked my rod. Top half of the rod went swimming. Had to get out beyond my wellies to collect it. Think I got nibbles but wasn't sure if it was nibbles or seaweed. Caught no mackerel. Drove back wet and cold. And I LOVED every minute. Very valuable lessons learned for my future development. Thankyou for the inspirational videos.
Thankyou for the inspirational videos. Caught my first mackerel today. The first fish I have caught in my 50 odd years. I was delighted just to catch something. When I held it in my hand I was excited yet curiously convicted. I felt a sense of remorse when it put up such a fight to survive. It was too small. So it went back. If it had been bigger I would have definitely scoffed it for dinner.
@markmcmullen8600 your welcome Mark. As long as you had fun fishing mate, sometimes that’s all that matters. Just getting out on the shore or bank enjoying the outdoors. For someone who makes videos, most of the time it’s the fish that gives the video content but deep down I’m happy being outdoors whether I’m catching or not just enjoying the journey. Tight lines buddy👍🎣
Absolutely brilliant video yet again, you’re an inspiration Douglas. That was a whopping mackerel you had and the food looked amazing, I was salivating at the end. Looking forward to your next video.
Thanks buddy for watching and for taking the time to comment. Great feedback👌
Food fit for kings!!! better than any supermarket crap you get nowadays.
@@veesto69 thanks mate, your not going to get any fresher bud
@@veesto69 thanks Mark, I appreciate feedback like this so much. Great to hear a beginner enjoying the journey, it’s not always about catching even though that’s the goal. Most of us learn far more through our failures.
So glad I found your channel pal, your a great presenter and very good at this! keep going pal as your much much better than most!!
Thanks buddy, your support is very much appreciated pal👍
Thanks RUclips algorithm for the recommendation, cracking videos and new subscriber 😎😀🐟
Hi there, many thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. Your support is very much appreciated👍
This summer I have only caught 3 Mackrell however I have caught 10 spur dogs
@@Swordsperi Thanks for commenting mate. I’m sure the mackerel fishing will get better soon. Love the spur dogs
Well done for returning the smaller specimens. Too many people take every mackerel they catch regardless of size. I see it all the time. Also, too many people don't immediately despatch their catch with a 'priest' leaving fish to suffocate in a poly bag. Shameful.
Thanks for an excellent presentation video.
@@davidmitchell8490 Many thanks for watching David and for taking the time to comment. I would rather people catch their own mackerel whether this is for food or bait. We need to stop consumer demand in the shops, to stop them being exploited commercially at sea. I only take what I need.
Great video dougie I go away fishing and camping for days on end and have found freezing bottles of water and wrapping in tin foil is the best way to keep things fresh get 2/3 days out then in the shade
@@Johnpir8978 Thanks John, appreciate your comment and sharing your tips with me and other viewers👌
Thanks for the tip on watering the wood chips, last year I used Apple wood there was a bitter taste think due to some wood around the edge turning into charcoal. I live over a hundred mile from the sea so only two days out this years no tight lines yet.
@@williammiles2241 Thanks William for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, it’s much appreciated buddy. Fingers crossed you get some tight lines soon👍
Are you fishing in mambeg? Pretty sure I used to go there when I was a boy. Would be good to get a day out with my dad and see if we can get a few mackerel
@@jameskenney7331 it was just further along the road James. Tight lines if you get out with your dad mate
Great channel you have Douglas and very informative, it was one of your videos that put me towards trying out the bombarda for the first time, I don't have the same skills as yourself but I still enjoy fishing with it.
You can't beat a catch and cook, thanks for posting
@@kintakintyea thanks Gordon appreciate that buddy. Hopefully I’ll meet up with you sometime either on your boat or on the shore👍
@@PiscatorUK-Fishing Your welcome Douglas, it would be a pleasure to meet you, Phil and I often chat about you when fishing, tight lines bud 🎣🐟🐟
Wow! that recipe is top draw, looks fantastic pal, will have to try it next time I go fishing for Mackerel!!
I would eat plain grilled or smoked mackerel any day of the week but It’s something a bit different and makes a wee change. Can’t beat it cooked fresh on the beach if you get the weather. Thanks again pal
Brilliant and a fantastic advert for Scotland ,the scenery and it’s natural larder .🏴
@@TheGhs1 thanks buddy and for taking the time to comment, very much appreciated👍
@TheGhs1 I spent as a young teenager a million years ago fishing for mackerel on the river Clyde me and my pals would caught 50 each bag them then give the mackerel to all or neighbours .if you love fishing , Scotland is a remarkable country to do so, lochs fresh water sea lochs sea trout salmon cod pollack and the scenery watching osprey eagles ,otters amazing
Liking the cooking, looked delicious👌👏. Next up mackerel sushi 😎👌
Can I ask you why you don’t bleed the fish?
What is that on your arm?
@@lynkpaul2171 did you not watch the video?
Open mackerel sandwich il be trying that
Thanks for the comment Sean👍
Different class Douglas mate , I don't think I have wanted a mackerel so bad after watching this 👍👍 outstanding mate thanks for sharing 👍
Cheers
Ed
@@thebigfish75 many thanks for watching Ed and for taking the time to comment. Always appreciated mate👍
@@PiscatorUK-Fishing Dying to get out mate , had some really nice sea trout on the fly at end of May but unfortunately snapped my Achilles heel at start of June so will need to go buy some some mackerel and try that recipe bud 🤣👍
@@thebigfish75 mate, I couldn’t think of anything worse than not being able to go fishing. Awesome you got some sea trout on the fly. I also had a good start to the sea trout season on the fly, no videos though as I was fishing in horrendous weather. Get better soon pal👍
@@PiscatorUK-Fishing yep it's torture mate lol worst ever hahah ,,, nice one mate , I got some cracking footage but never ever put anything up before on here
And thanks mate appreciate that , getting their slowly , hopefully get out soon 💪👍
Grand Dougie. Not seen a catch n cook video in a while. Looked lovely. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for taking the time to comment buddy👍
@@PiscatorUK-Fishing my pleasure pal..think ill be gettin one of them smoking midge. Look the business..thanks 🎣
Slabber 😂
@@andypeutherer4218 thanks for the comment bud
Can't wait until i next go mackerel fishing. That recipe is definetley coming with me. Iv'e watched a few of your vids now and they're brilliant. Keep doing what you're doing and as you say "tight lines" 👍
@@daviddocherty1390 thanks David for watching and taking the time to comment. Tight lines buddy
Were is this
West coast Scotland the Gareloch
Great video, new sub, although Mackerel are rare in Nottingham. A little bit of escapism for me. Thank you.
@@mickheathcote4570 Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment Mick. Appreciate the sub buddy👌some excellent coarse fishing down you neck of the woods though
Excellent stuff Douglas, looked tremendous 🤘🏻🎣
@@theanglingfront cheers Michael👍
Hello. thanks for the new videos and tips. I apologize for my English. A few months ago you shared the address where you fish for mackerel, for which I am grateful. It's far from me. So I go to Greenock to the pier quite often but during the whole time I caught several mackerel and pollock. I want to come to your place. I have a question. I don’t see on the map where I can park my car in this place. I see small pockets all over the road, but I don’t know if it’s possible to leave a car in such a pocket. And another question. What time of day is the best time to catch mackerel? Thanks a lot.
@@ioandco. thanks your welcome my friend. Yes there is enough room to park your car there. You can catch mackerel anytime during the day but in my experience it’s less productive when the light starts to fade
Just watched this during my night shift, excellent and I will be trying this and Subbed
Cheers
Graeme
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Your support is very much appreciated buddy. Tight lines
Different class mate,nostalgia at its finest,my grandad used to take me to loch awe and used to cook up loch awe goulash as he called it,basically whatever tins he had it home in one pot,tasted amazing when yer by the water,yours is bit more refined dougie😂 I’ll deffo give that a go mate,great clip👌
@@DavidBrodie-l9r thanks David, appreciate the comments mate. You can’t beat any cooking when you’re outdoors. My grandad did the same although he would go out his way to buy the tinned grub. The only thing he ever ate tinned in the house was beans.
Mouth is watering after watching that!! Defo need to give that recipe a try!! Thanks for sharing Doug!!
@@DarioFerrari23 Thanks Dario much appreciated mate👍
Great content,I defo like to give the whole fishing and cook on the side of the water thing,canny beat that..great stuff.as long as weather ok I guess.keep the vids comming.
Thanks for commenting James. Yeah in the right location with nice weather it doesn’t get any better.
Great vid, the sooner you eat mackerel after they are caught the tastier they are.
@@dondle2 thanks mate, I totally agree, the fresher the better
Hi looked the business, being a avid foody imo the larger fillets should be
in the centre closest to the radiated heat source, maybe I m talking cods wallop,
which is often the case!
Great stuff in any case.
Atb.
Hi Bert, if the tin wasn’t enclosed then yes thicker fillets would be closer to the heat source. There’s a good build up of steam and heat with the lid on and Ive certainly not had an issue with undercooked fish, even for the 9 minutes. Thanks for taking the time to comment buddy👍
Good informative video, mackerel are one of the best fish to eat.
@@anotherangleUK thanks for commenting Phil, tight lines pal👍
Will try the horseradish sauce mix and great video Douglas, brilliant thanks 🎣
Thanks Andy much appreciated mate. Tight lines
Superb mate!! I was waiting for the family to turn up to help you scran it all haha
Cheers Steve, I could only manage 4. I took the rest home for the misses😂
Hi there, what is the name of the place where you fished?Fantastic you are just AMAZING !!!
@@Xxx-ly4vq thanks for watching and commenting much appreciated. It’s the west coast of Scotland Gareloch close to Helensburgh
Amazing video!
I’m new here but pretty sure I’ll catch up and maybe try out the recipe pretty soon
Cheers ! 🍻
@@TheDoctorRust many thanks for commenting my friend. Tight lines and happy cooking👍🎣
Brilliant video, do you crush the barbs on your hooks ?
@@AndrewVine-oz1ox thanks Andrew. No I keep the barbs on as the come of easy enough, I might try it though as long as I can get them in, I would be more than happy to de-barb.
OMG that looks lovely Douglas its on my list .Thanks for video.
@@tonyallen1953 Thanks Tony, tight lines and happy cooking🎣🍽️
Hi, can you tell me about you rod, please? Great video .
@@olegarinicev9116 no problem mate, it’s 11ft Rovex captive casting weight 60gram. I’m not sure if they still make this model as It’s about 15yrs old. Any surf rod 10-12 ft will do the trick.
Mackerel in Anglesey have been a little sparse so far this summer. They seem to be arriving later and later, where April and May was busy years ago it seems mid August to September! That's global warming for ya!
When I lived in Shetland it was almost year round!
Gonna go try this weekend.
We shall see!
Thanks for taking the time to comment. Tight lines buddy🎣👍
Cheers Dougie awesome video .. though you have made me hungry 😊
Thanks for taking the time to comment Barry it’s always appreciated buddy. It was a tasty bit of breakfast👌
that mosquito repellent looks like a steampunk dystopian post-apocalyptic device of some sort. one of the trophies that Immortan Joe could possibly carry
It does a great job at keeping them away though
Absolutely fantastic get yourself on master chef 👍
@@Andy-71 thanks for watching and commenting Andy, appreciated mate👍
Hi Douglas iv got the same wee stove what number of heat setting do you smoke the fish at im defiantly going to gee this a try smashing mate
Thanks Stephen. I’ve not got any numbers on the stove mate but it’s probably about a quarter turn from the lowest setting.
Great Video! When would you say the mackerel season is over in the UK?
@@Ewan-qv9ww Thanks Ewan, that’s a difficult question mate. It will be different all around the country. It’s not been a very good season for the mackerel this year due to the weather. In the west of Scotland they’re usually still hear in decent numbers until the end of October hopefully
Try a sprinkle of brown sugar on the flesh side with your seasoning when smoking, or a dribble of hunny
Thanks for the tip Michael, I’ll give it a try
do you use straight braid or a flurocarbon leader
Hi there James, I use a fluorocarbon leader buddy about the length of my rod. Mono will probably be ok for this kind of fishing though. I’ve got fluoro on the reel as I use it for lure fishing also.
thats was an other brilliant video enjoyed that👍
@@scottmeikle5117 thanks Scott, appreciate your comments buddy👍
Great video, made me very hungry :)
@@kenxro thanks for watching Ken and taking the time to comment, it’s appreciated buddy👍
Thanks i was gonna go today but unforeseen circumstance scuppered my plans
@@shuggiemcg1 Shame mate it was a beautiful day today on the coast and flat calm
@@PiscatorUK-Fishing i think im going to try friday if i get the chance
Great video again well done mate
@@shgers3344 appreciate that and thanks for commenting👍
GAC asked today if I know you as you’re in the same postcode as me 😅 ever fancy a fishing buddy let me know 👍
Also should add I have the big layby in Rahane next to the deepest point in the loch. Still new to sea fishing but learning 👍 (have smoker and BBQ ready for you haha)
@@napieraerialphotography6785 I use to be in the GAC a few years ago as I live at the bottom of peaton hill. No worries mate, I’m on Facebook, Douglas Heron Angling or contact me via email Piscatoruk@gmail.com
@@PiscatorUK-Fishing messaged you. Thinking of getting some rag and mackerel out on a pulley rig to see what’s about
@@napieraerialphotography6785 you might get the odd dog fish. Better off using a float with mackerel strip for sea trout especially where you live. Only need to cast out 30-50ft👌
@@PiscatorUK-Fishing I’ll give that a go, thank you. Please pop round at some point, I’m shite at sea fishing haha
You make me feel so hungry spot on
@@GordonClark-b1f thanks for watching and commenting buddy👍
Great video. What’s the road and reel set up please ? Any links to where I could buy? Cheers
@@sunfisherbum the rod is quite old mate and I can’t find links for it. Any surf rod or lure rod will do 10-11ft casting weight up to 60gram. The reel is a 4000 Penn battle 2. For this type of fishing any sea reel 4-5000 size will do mate. I also use this setup for light- medium beach fishing for flatties
@@PiscatorUK-Fishing what one would you recommend that would do the job?
Great video as always,Ally
@@allythescot Thanks Ally, much appreciated pal
