Hi Luke you have just brought back memories fishing in the lytham estery. I fished there 40 years ago shrimp 🦐 whiting flatties and cod if you were lucky, the river was well polluted in them days, full of sewage what a mess. Nice watching you take care it can get really ruff on the river. Don't forget to wear your life jacket. Nice one.
Thanks for your comment mate, glad it brought some memories back, I'd have loved to fish the estuary back then and see how different it is, will do mate thanks again for watching, tight lines :)
Nice little Whiting fest, You'll get yourself a cod this winter I'm sure, I assume you mean from the Ribble, as there's quite a few cod shore marks round Lancs and Mersey (you'll surely already know) never had a cod from Ribble personally (but never fished it over winter) so I'd be interested to see one come out. It is a food laden eastury after all, cod love one of them. Tightlines dude.
Love your videos. I wanted to take a sib out here or around southport but I got warned off and alls I hear is danger danger. I wanted to set off from Ainsdale beach at high tide and go out no more than a mile. How dangerous can this be?
Thanks mate, I suppose it can be dangerous when it gets rough but so long as you pick days with low winds, and westerlies if you're coming off ainsdale then you should be alright :)
@@frompooltopoolefishing6716 Ayy good stuff I've just subscribed, yeah I find as soon as you take a break it's really hard to get the views and subs going again but this vid seems to have done well :)
Hi luke we fish the same marks but we launch from south shore boat club , and normally head for rossall, hard work on beach launching as waves are normally a nightmare,but like the look of were you launching from looks nice and calm lol
Hi mate, sorry I answered your other comment as if you were new to boating which I now realise you aren't sorry haha, yeah I think rossall and fleetwood way seem to have the better cod fishing I'd like to fish more up that way with the boat, it's alright down here as like you say you can hide in the estuary so it's calm but it still has it's fair or rough days haha
Just incase you dont know , south shore small craft club have 2 tractors and boat yard with parking and is only £100 for year and extra £50 to store small boat in yard 👍
Thanks mate! I launch from a few places up this bit of coast, Lytham St.Annes, Fylde Boat angling club in Bispham and up at Fleetwood, there's a good few clubs round here with slips to offer as well if you don't like beach launching like I do here.
Another good video luke I'm not saying u can't catch cod with that boom rig but u better off sticking with running ledger rig for cod as they are pretty much bottom feeders mate, you want to pin that bait to seabed. No doubt u ll get them soon tight lines 🎣👍
Thanks Hakan appreciate it! Gotcha yeah good tip because even the whiting all came on the bottom hook, I'll stick with the running ledgers in the future :) same to you mate tight lines👍🎣
looking at getting a nice 4m sib for fishing out in the spring / summer . living in manchester atm mate so i have N wales and liverpool / southport / blackpool all within an hour probs be fishing the latter more so is it the case of just launching on the beach mate theres no fees etc these ways is there ?
Theres various locations mate, beach launching is free but for certain fees there are slipways, clubs with tractors and launch assists available up and down the fylde coast :)
Thanks mate, I beach launch here which I realise isn't ideal but I also launch from a few of the boat clubs up the coast which I imagine would be best for me to advise you to go with a sib as they have tractors etc and proper slipways that give a bit more scope for launching, tight lines :)
@@fishingandherping7681 Hi Thanks for the reply, i am already a member of the Blackpool light craft club, but i would have liked to have known where you launched from, as it is a fair jog from the club to the Ribble estuary, even though it is a sib, i have a trailer. any info on the launch site would be appreciated.
I beach launched here which I realise isn't ideal for everyone so the best advice I give for a slipway is to head for one of the club slipways which are really good and they usually have tractors to launch too, tight lines :)
nice vid, nothing wrong with whiting, a great tasting fish, also big cod eat whiting, many years winter beach fishing, once the whiting had left the coast if you didnt catch a cod, you caught nothing, so never not like catching the humble whiting, dont know it youve tried whole quid as a cod bait, also on a small tide and light gear, great sport, and NEVER be in a boat with those waders on, if they are the type i think they are and did i miss your life vest?
Thanks mate, yeah I don't mind fishing through the whiting, I have heard of the big cod taking whiting and whole squid I'll have to use them as bait next time, worth the wait for a nice Cod :) . Yeah I didn't realise til after this video that I'd completely forgotten the lifejacket so I think I'll get a few comments saying the same thing, in all of my other videos you'll see I'm wearing one, just completely forgot this session, oops.
@@fishingandherping7681 best to use a pennell rig, small hook with a bit of bait on and maybe a 6/0 above that to hook the big un, although on the beach my mate had a pin whiting on a 4/0 and a 16 1/2 pound cod on the 1/0 with no bait on it when fishing a pennell rig
@@johnkay7354 Wow sounds a lucky catch that but they happen, thanks for the advice it sounds a good rig that I can make that up or buy a ready made one for next time :)
@@fishingandherping7681 always feels better catching on home made, loads of vids online how to make, also if you did just put a pin whiting on as bait, you can leave that rod out all day, just waiting for the big take
Can you give me the loction that you launch from?I have a 14ft broom speedboat converted for sea fishing,but only have front wheel drive mk 3 golf estate.
I launch from Lytham green causeway mate, I would say though 4wd is preferable there, its done with 2wds like vans etc but I've also seen them get stuck as its not a proper slip its slimy pebbles so just a word of caution if you go for it because I havent seen the condition of it for awhile
Thanks mate appreciate that do you have a boat? Looking like it'll be November before I'm next out got some work come in and a bit of pike fishing planned :)
Worst thing about those pesky whiting is getting the hooks out, seems there belly is at the end of there tail. Hate hurting or killing them trying to un hook em. Im mostly a summer fisherman because of it.

Good bread and butter fishing Luke.
Cheers mate, thanks for watching! :)
Great to see you back,tight lines.
Thanks mate! Really enjoying making vids again :)
Good video, the cod and whiting season has got off to a great start in the humber estuary and I'm itching to start 😬
Cheers mate, yeah it's the same story down here I'm just trying to get in on the action like yourself :)

Where do you launch from Luke,and do you have to pay?
You could try a number 10 hook with a live Whiting.
Good vid, Can I ask where you launch from please

Hi where are you launching from there please
Spoke on facebook mate :)
Do you do lives or only videos
I've never done a lie on youtube mate only vids but I've tried a few facebook lives sometimes while I've been out catching :)
Hiya pal if ya want to go one neet at a weekend friday sat or Sunday get in touch will go try find a cod
Thanks mate appreciate that do you have a boat? Looking like it'll be November before I'm next out got some work come in and a bit of pike fishing planned :)
Maybe next time buddy
Aye hopefully mate, will keep trying :)
Try five bar gate
Yeah, seen a few coming off there, will try from the shore soon :)
Worst thing about those pesky whiting is getting the hooks out, seems there belly is at the end of there tail. Hate hurting or killing them trying to un hook em. Im mostly a summer fisherman because of it.
Yeah I know exactly what you mean, I managed to get most back healthy and the ones that didn't were thankfully big enough to eat :)
You should wear a life jacket. Good video thank you.
Never wear waders on a boat especially if your alone and not wearing a buoyancy aide?
I just forgot the life jacket this day I've had a few comments like this, in all my other vids I'm wearing one but occasionally forget like here. :)
