    Hi Alan just came across this and wanted to say although I’m not an angler I really enjoyed your video. I used to work with you it’s Mark.

    Nice codling. I hope there will be a load of cod and codling in the Bristol Channel. Cheers and tight lines.

    Nice to see you catch a few fish. Looked a lovely day for it and cracking conditions. I was down the following day and had a feeling I 'should have been there yesterday'!! 😀

      Thanks for watching - I thought the Weds would have been the better day but that's how it goes . Right place / right time which is rare for me !!

    Hi Alan, good to see you back mate, I bet that kept you fit running up and down the bank with all of those fish! Well done buddy👊🏻 nice to see you getting lots of action. I was down Ferrybridge the following morning on a very short 3 hour session before work, couldn’t fish on my days off as had to fix the car. Just 2 eels, one was probably not far off a double, one dog and a pout, no cod so I think you picked the right day😊 I was going to go to Abbotsbury but changed my mind last minute due to the road closure as wasn’t sure where it would be shut so thanks for the heads up. Great vid as always, take care 👍👍

      Hi Lincoln, thanks for watching. The diversion took me back towards Weymouth (from portesham) and then down a track , eventually ending up by the Swannery : bit of a mare in the van !! The walk back did me in - over 50 mins and I'm relatively fit. I was glad the fishing action had calmed down a bit after dark and I only fished 2 rods. One day I'll get a decent conger (I hope) that's why we go back !! Hopefully down again soon but weather looks a bit iffy for next week

    Eazy al are you ok pal, well done on your session. Especially teasing uz with the codling lol. They just starting to show there faces now up are way on the humber. I was out again yesterday n managed a whiting, flounders n a dab . But the dab was manky as he'll. Its fins were all tatty n on the topside covered in a horrible green stuff on skin. I've seen them on the norflok coast who I watch on the old tube. But that's the first one I've came access. I had dabs last week n they was top quality. It don't look good any way chief what there eating or living. I call them radioactive dabs now lol. All the best from GRIMSBY

      Thanks for watching Carl - used to catch dabs regularly in West Wales when I was growing up, but can't say when I last caught one ... certainly not in the last 4 yrs !! Hope the cod season is a good one up North

    We hit it a week before, Abbotsbury was rammed and not one fish landed, wind was gusting 35mph SSW.
    You hit it just right.
    Blanked at Ferrybridge too.
    Well done you.

    • @fishingat
      @fishingat  3 месяца назад +1

      Thanks for watching , shame you blanked, happens to us all. It's always hard to gauge what is a fishable wind at Chesil , typically for me I use the wind guru app which allows you not only to check wind direction but wave height as well . Anything over 1.5 M , I'm generally staying home (for chesil)

    Good stuff looked like a perfectly timed trip . From my experience it seems like that is over half the battle for anyone travelling fairly big distance travel to fish Chesil. Looking out the window on our flight back from the Med yesterday the sea around sizewell was a nice chocolate colour for a few hundred yards out . Currently dropping hints and seeking approval for next four day Chesil trip 🤞🏻

    • @fishingat
      @fishingat  3 месяца назад

      Thanks for watching. Yes, having to drive 2-3 hrs to get there each way , focuses the mind to plan - I'm lucky , not working anymore I can essentially go when I want but try to avoid the weekend crowds. It must be tough planning a trip and the weather not obliging. I made a fish pie with the cod / pout , so my better half was well pleased that I'd been !! Tight lines

    Really good session-good to see. I couldn't see but it looked as if your pulley rig was just the single main hook-was that what you were using?

    • @fishingat
      @fishingat  3 месяца назад

      Thanks for watching - yes , just using the one hook for the small (ish) baits on the pulley rig.

  • @paulhiggins6024
    @paulhiggins6024 3 месяца назад +2

    Very Nice video. This just goes to show if you don’t get the weather window then it’s pretty pointless. The fish just are not there and it’s wast of time and money with clogged roads, rammed car parks and horrendous charges. Sadly Shore angling in this country is in dire straights.

      Indeed , indeed , indeed - thanks for watching. Quick search showed they are mature at 50 cm .. so the one kept was perhaps a cod !!

    Sorry mate but to say that was 200yards easy is laughable it was more like 60-70 max do you actually know how far 200yard is😂

    • @fishingat
      @fishingat  3 месяца назад

      Thanks for watching , perhaps 200 ft then !
