Thanks for the tip my friend, I’m sure it will help other viewers out that look at the comments. I’m well aware of the hazards in using aluminium for cooking food. I think it is mainly tin metal as it is starting to rust and not aluminium. I’ll be sure to inform viewers in the next cooking video using the biscuit tin👍

Thanks for commenting Matt. Yes it was a wonderful day surrounded by amazing scenery and the fish were just stunning👍

​@@PiscatorUK-Fishing so no view on bio-security?

@mattwright2964 absolutely!! it’s very important to protect our wild waters around the country. Anglers should do everything in their power to protect what we have, like washing all our equipment that’s been in contact with the water and substrate, especially if you intend to fish other waters. You only have to look at the River Clyde where the aquatic life is being destroyed by crayfish. Many anglers are oblivious of the direct impact they have on potentially spreading contamination from one water to the next or they just don’t care.

@@andrewgoodall2183 Thanks for watching Andrew, I’m casting into 30-50ft of water. You can catch mackerel shallower than that, I would say that anything over 15ft you will have success if the mackerel are there.

Cheers buddy and thanks for the comment

Many thanks for taking the time to comment and for the sub, tight lines

@@swiggy03 brilliant buddy glad you enjoyed it. You’ve got a bit of a journey to get to the sea from Barnsley mate👍

Hi Mike, thanks for the sub and comments, very much appreciated buddy

It’s in the Gareloch west of Scotland. A permit is required for sea trout fishing here. You can get a season ticket for the Clyde estuary from Tickers tackle Helensburgh, which is cheaper than the Loch Lomond Angling Improvements Association

Only too glad to help. I got into coarse fishing 2 years back so much so that I started match fishing it’s a great sport. At the moment I’ve just got too many other fishing interests going on that I equally enjoy. Coarse fishing as a main interest is certainly something I will return to later when I’m unable to wade fast flowing rivers or kick about on the float tube, kayak or boat. Tight lines my fried and thanks for commenting👍

Thanks Raymondo, your comments and feedback are greatly appreciated. Tight lines🎣

Thanks Pat, very much appreciated buddy. Tight lines

Awesome comment and very much appreciated for the feedback. Thanks for watching. Tight lines

So many lures out there that’s good. Abu Garcia Solv Pill I think it is, is highly recommended. I’ve had great success with line through sand eel

Thanks Ian, tight lines buddy🎣

11ft 60gram spinning rod, 4000 penn battle 2. 40lb Diawa J braid 8strand

@@PiscatorUK-Fishing Think this year my set up will be either my Penn prevail Apex 2 '12 rod and a 5000 DX slammer or a 4500 slammer or Savage gear 2500 and a savagear SGS6 or the 11' Berkley E motion, bought too many rods so excuse to get out and try them! Still no sign of the Mackies further down the Clyde yet

@davymaclean8481 sound like good setups there mate, where do you fish on the Clyde?

@PiscatorUK-Fishing Portencross normally, if your up for doing a video helping out a newbie to fishing I'm your man!

@davymaclean8481 I would have thought definitely mackerel there mate. That’s pretty much the entrance to the Gareloch and loch long.

Thanks buddy, tight lines🎣💪🏻

Thanks Ant for commenting. I was thinking the same for taking the cooker, I just keep it in the car now. Tight lines and good luck with the channel👍

Thanks, tight lines

Thanks for the questions buddy. I take it you mean 15lb mono? If so you should be ok. If you fish in an area that’s got no possibility of getting snagged up, then fishing light line is ok. The best braid to leader knot to use is the FG knot. Tight lines🎣

Thanks for commenting buddy. With mackerel, there’s no consistency, here today gone tomorrow. Mackerel will be there as long as the bait fish are there.

@@PiscatorUK-Fishing Ok thanks ,i thought you had the motherload there all to yoursel lol .

Congrats on your first sea trout mate. Bombarda or not, catching is what matters. Tight lines🎣

Thanks so much for commenting. They certainly are good eating fish. I’ve been most to most places in the world, Australia is at the top of my bucket list👍

Thanks for commenting buddy very much appreciated👍

@PiscatorUK-Fishing was it the Gareloch you were fishing? Seen it in the navonics clip, I lived at Rosneath as my dad worked on the base

@@supafly1982 yes just down from Rosneath mate

@PiscatorUK-Fishing I thought it looked very familiar 😊 our sloop the Saphire was moored just off of Clinder, some good memories as a kid catching mackerel 😊

It’s at the Gareloch west Scotland

Cheers Alan, it’s a size 6 hook probably total length is 10cm

@@PiscatorUK-Fishing could you please send me the direct link to these douglas? i had them and then lost them 🙄

@@PiscatorUK-Fishing thank you tight lines 🦞

Thanks for the questions Mark. I don’t think it would break the rod but I do think you could end up in all sorts of tangles. If I’m going to fish a lure then a suitable light setup would be my go to choice. Don’t forget mate you don’t need to cast far to catch sea trout. I’ve had them on a 5gram rapala floating crank bait that only cast 50ft max.

Thanks for watching and commenting Dave. Hope you’re ok buddy and tight lines.

Fantastic spot, I lived at the bottom of peaton hill a few years back. Thanks for commenting and tight lines

@@PiscatorUK-Fishing yeah we live at the bottom of Peaton hill :) be good to join you for some pointers if you’re ever over this way again :)

No mackerel are more of a summer fish, usually the better the weather there’s more of them

Cheers buddy. West coast Gareloch

Many thanks. The smoker is DIY, from an old biscuit tin. The portable gas cooker can be purchased almost anywhere

Thanks Tony, you won’t be disappointed mate

Thanks for commenting👍

Hello buddy thanks for watching and commenting. I totally get fishing away from the busy areas which I try to avoid. I am just before Clynder in the last few mackerel videos but do like to try other areas. It’s relatively shallow close in with deeper water further out with a good cast. A bit of advice if you do plan to go there, is to go about 3hrs of the ebb tide down to low water and fish the first 3hrs of the flood tide, that way you don’t need to cast as far to reach deeper water. Rosneath the opposite side of Rhu narrows is also quite good but again can get busy in summer and parking close to the water is very limited. Hope this helps mate, tight lines to you both👍

Thank you so much for the advice Douglas it's very greatfully received I haven't been able to get out this summer as yet obviously due to weather conditions not been great here in the west of Scotland as u will be well aware. Was hoping to try a trip up early morning this week to see how things were and when he stops school for summer take him to a mark which isn't too busy. I used loch long many times and last year around this time it was producing big hoards of macks but weather was completely different very warm. I drove down towards clynder last year but just wasn't sure if it was deep enough for macks tbh but having watched you and seeing what can be done I shall try and see this season at some point. Again many thanks and tight lines to you and look forward to seeing more videos from yourself oh and the smoked mack looks amazing 👏

@@shgers3344 no problem buddy👍

Many thanks for commenting Carl happy to help buddy👍

@@PiscatorUK-Fishing I spearfish down here in Cornwall and also get scallops often, so I'll definitely try them in a smoker 😁

@@carlhescornish your just making my mouth water now. Mussels and razor clam also. I lived in Plymouth for 3 years and the summers were just the best time ever down there. I use to spearfish for mullet and bass cooked right on the shore👌

@@PiscatorUK-Fishing yup, I love diving for razor clams, so much fun.. Reckon mussels, clams and scallops in the smoker would be the pinnacle of beach cook ups 😋😁

Hello mate, many thanks for commenting, your right not many 11 ft spinning rods about. 10ft will do the job though as long as the weight rating is high enough for the lures or weights. I’ve had this rod for years, it’s a rovex captive and I’ve used it in a few of my videos including the sea trout fishing. It’s not the lightest of rods and I wouldn’t want to be casting it all day but it’s also a good all rounder for light beach fishing.
