- Hello and thanks for visiting my channel.
Something a bit different on this video, join me as I try to follow a naturally occurring tidal surge on the River Trent. The Aegir was predicted to be a 5* tidal bore, but would we get it? Would Mother Nature be kind to us? Check out the video to find out!
Thanks again for visiting the channel

didnt no this happened on the trent now i kinda wanna dive down the rabbit hole and see if theres any videos of a bigger one seen it on the seven a fair few times
@@ryanlotgd it’s a decent rabbit hole to disappear in 😂 there’s some really good videos on here 👍 thanks for watching mine!
@@Takingawalkwithmybestfriend no problem randomly appeared on my feed and didn't no it was a thing grew up near the Trent so peaked my interest deffo some good videos about now I've had a look time to add it to the list of things to do when ever I'm back in the area 😅
@@ryanlotgd hope you have more luck with it than me 😂🤞
That's brilliant mate...loved this, so interesting..i often go walking around Owston area...always great to see the mighty Trent...thanks for the video, really enjoyed it...might nip down there sometime
@@atrampinthehills.841 thanks for that mate! Just a shame we didn’t get a bigger Aegir, I won’t be defeated though, there will be other chances to see a bigger one.
Thanks for sharing that. It's amazing our mother nature, isn't it. It's also quite scary knowing there's a force controlling our tides! Fascinating! 😊
@@bumblejennybee88 thanks for watching Jenny. Yeah it’s brilliant, especially if you’re a bit of a geek for random things like this. Hopefully we get a good one soon, as they’re spectacular to watch.
Hi James, that was so interesting! I grew up in Scunny and never knew that about the Aegir. I am definitely going to go watch one! Are there any goods walks around Gainsborough?☺
@@carriehikes ah didn’t realise you were local! There’s a few places to explore, there’s lots of the Trent you can walk, the chesterfield and fossdyke canals are nice too. Laughton forest is good to get lost in for a few hours also. We’ve not got many hills to climb but we’ve still got lots of amazing countryside and places to see. Thanks for watching as always 😊
We have the same thing where I live on the banks of the Ouse there's even a property in the village called Aeger house . We've lived there 3 years and I've only seen the bore once . Perhaps that's cos I'm always at bloody work 😕
@@SandyVollans you should get it at the same time we do I think mate, as the tide goes down the Humber then splits down the Trent and Ouse.
Never knew we had a bore on the Trent although i have fished at Dunham bridge in the past. Can i ask if Gainsborough Trinity are still going ?
@@robgunnAK47 yeah it’s a good bore…sometimes 😂 yeah trinity are still going strong. Had a giant killing result in the FA cup today 💪
Great footage thanks James.
What were the river levels like?
As you say a very fickle bore that needs just the right conditions.
I’ve been wanting to surf it for years but it never feels like the right time. This month clearly not 😂
@@trevellyan2182 thanks for watching! Yeah it’s been a nightmare of late. The river was quite low, but it’s just one of those things. I’ve seen a few surfing it in the past, braver than me, so fair play 😂 hopefully October will be better 🤞🤞
@@Takingawalkwithmybestfriend yeah it's strange there have been zero decent sightings since 2019 it seems. Toying with coming over next month to find this fickle beasty! I've yet to come from a bore hunt empty handed... time to push my luck maybe! 😉 Be great to meet up if you're around.
@@trevellyan2182 I’ve not seen a good one for 6 or 7 years, was talking to someone who says there’s been dredging around the mouth of the river, which might affect it a bit, who knows 🤷♂️ it’s one of those isn’t it! Subbed to your channel 👍
