Gd video bud 👍
thanks steve
Beautiful fish
Just subscribed to your channel last week some great videos your posting mate, your float set up, do you set it to a certain depth with a stop knot? What kind of depths are we talking here?
Hi Dario awesome you enjoy them thanks bud 👍 yes I do use a stop knot and at St Abbs for pollack I set it around mid water which is 20ft....I use to catch cod on peeler crab on the float this I would set abput 5ft from the bottom which here is around 40ft. I must do a float fishing video soon!
@@jarrowvikingsinsaneangling9785 Class mate, thanks for replying! That will help me for sure 🙌🏼.. Keep up the good work with the videos and i’ll maybe see you on the rocks one day 🎣
Great video and excellent fishing.
Why Aye I thank you Steve!
Just came across this vid and thought i wish i was there..!! Great vid m8 and nice music. How do I get there ? Is it north of st.Abbs or south ?? Any help wud be much appreciated.
Just to the south of the lighthouse
Hello from Spain,
Very nice video. Like!
Have you ever used soft plastics, like Marukyu Isome or Berkley Gulp, for wrasse fishing?
Are ragworms or sandworms your favorite bait for wrasse? And for pollock?
Thank you very much and keep it up.
Great video on such lightest tackle lovely way to fish think I will give it ago instead of throwing 5 to 6 oz out there
Great fun Dennis and you will catch more fish to, just up your game for the pollack as they can easily get the better of you.
@@jarrowvikingsinsaneangling9785 where is this mate. Are you at the right or left of the lighthouse?? I went today to the left of the lighthouse. Only pollock caught
What depth on the float mate
20ft mate
Did you keep the pollock for eating? Hope so!!
Remember and put Pollok back when fishing in Scotland so others can enjoy. A large Pollok can be over 20 years old and large areas are now being fished by commercial boats.
very territorial fish are the wrasse so chances are you caught the same fish more than once
Great video especially for me as I am an amateur who lives close to St Abbs,one small bit of constructive criticism the music is not needed!!
Glad you liked it my next video out very soon has no music in it
Information if you would please I notice you use a savage mpp rod is it 8ft or 9ft model i am stuck on which one to get ...thanks
Hi Dennis mines the 9ft 120g version of the MPP, it only comes out when I expext big uns though as it's a very powerful spinning rod
Jarrow Viking thanks for that wanted a rod with backbone cheers
Pollack on Mackerel Strip then?
yes they love it...the bigger the strip the bigger the fish
@@jarrowvikingsinsaneangling9785 Fab. I've never really been into Sea Fishing, but i think i might have a bash at that....thanks
Hi there what area is this at st Abbs? Thanks for the video
Hi David it's just to the South of the lighthouse, obviously I don't want to divulge the exact mark
Yeah that's understandable lol I tried to go to the lighthouse and it was really difficult to get to that location ended up walking miles because I couldn't get a route lol thanks for that
You can drive up to the lighthouse David, just before st abbs village on the bend is a track that takes you to a row of cottages and a gate, pay your 3 quid if inclined and go through the gate, follow the track for a mile or so to the parking spot at the lighthouse. Must warn you though the marks are very extreme to get down to and some look impossible unless you know the way down
Hi mate. Just a quick question. Does your weight slide all the way down to the hook and do you just let it sit on the bottom like that? Ive never see that sort of rig before. Is it just like a running ledger but without a swivel or trace?
yes it just runs down the line to the hook no swivel or trace
Great stuff. What bait were u using for the pollock please? Looked like pollock strips??
it was mackerel you can see two of them on the rocks that he has cut and also a massive strip of mackerel in the Pollocks mouth.
Yes mackerel strip about 6 inches long
Ha ha your as lazy a fisherman as me ,cranking on the handle an not using the rod lift ,and we wonder why we burn out gears easy ,nice fishing .think once you use the baiting needle you don't go back old school threading on bait to hooks ,slide up rag ,slide onto hook
Haha Paul must be a habit never noticed....I try not to lift and drop the rod though so the hook isn't pulled from the fishes mouth if the line happens to go slack....must be an old habit from my boat fishing days
