- UK Sea Fishing at Nells Point, next to Barry Island Beach (Whitmore Bay). I always look forward to a bit of Barry Sea Fishing, I have many great memories and I've caiught some lovely fish here over the years. Nowadays, Barry is very much noted as a South Wales Ray Fishing hotspot between Spring and late Autumn but many other species can also be caught, anything can turn up. When it comes to Bristol Channel Sea Fishing marks, Nells Point is right up there for me, there's something very special about it and the chips from next to the Barry Island Pleasure Park always taste good too!
Thank you for watching, it is very much appreciated!
Gareth

Thanks Gareth, always a pleasure to watch the videos 😊
Thank you very much for the donation Andy, I appreciate it. I'm hoping to buy a new camera this Autumn and so I will put it towards that. Hope all is well, cheers for watching 👍👍
You’re welcome Gareth, I’m good thanks for asking. Like you said in the video, just need those easterlies to disappear! It’s made recent fishing pretty nippy in Kent 😂
@@user-wr6wl1lf7f Yes definitely, full on bright sunshine but cold at the same time, it's been odd haha! Hopefully those south westerlies are not too far away now! 👍
Another magnificent video. Stunning views and pure beauty.well we know if it takes you 5 years to get one video a week we have 5 years to look forward to. It's very annoying those who think it's fine to ruin such beauty. In my opinion yours it by far the best fishing channel I watch looking forward to seeing more from you. Regards to the family 👍
Ah thank you Bob, that's nice of you to say. I'll keep going and hopefully plenty more to come. It was a nice morning for it, was great to be out fishing again. Not much action but enjoyable all the same. Shame about the rubbish isn't it, I just don't understand as it takes a matter of seconds to bag it up, very frustrating as a lot of these marks are beautiful. Cheers for watching, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
This is what can happen a lot of the time, Gareth. At least you didn't blank. Great video as always..
It certainly does mate, the first cast curse ha! Nice session though, always nice to spend a few hours next to the water, nothing better! Cheers as always, take care 👍👍
Again great video look forward to them all gareth
Thank you Andy, I'm pleased to hear that. A slow session but it was nice to be out. Cheers as always, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
your doin alright butty your videos are always worth watching quality beats quantity loveley boy never forget that
Thank you Richard. I always get a little paranoid when there's not many fish in the video but I guess we can't always catch them and that's why I do my best to make a nice video regardless. Have a good weekend 👍👍
Another great video you didn’t blank happy days 🎣
Thank you Andy. As the tide was coming in it looked really promising but it wasn't to be. Still enjoyable though, was great to spend a few hours next to the water. Enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Great video as always. Never understand the mentality of some people, just dump the rubbish when they could quite easily take it home! Sad.
Thank you Nick. Lovely morning for it despite the lack of action. Same here, I just don't get it, always frustrates me. I'm seeing more and more rubbish wherever I go, not good. Cheers as always, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Hi Gareth enjoyable video great spot shame about the rubbish but will always get the inconsiderate ones just a shame about the easterly wind fishing has dropped off again once again thanks for great video thanks
@@michaelfewster Thank you Michael, appreciated as always. Yes it certainly is a shame, I just don't get it, takes seconds to bag up your rubbish. The fishing does seem to have dipped off, hopefully the South Westerly winds are not too far away and then things should improve. Cheers for watching, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
I have been a volunteer litter picker Since retiring and I kid you not it has opened my eyes by the mentality of people Who constantly throw rubbish anywhere and everywhere And don't even go there with dog poo bags
@@tonyreynolds3570Annoying isn't it Tony. The problem seems to be getting worse, I'm seeing more and more litter wherever I go. Well done for doing your bit though, it is appreciated 👍
Thank you for the video mate
You're welcome Paul. Not much to show in this one but I guess we can only but try. Cheers as always, take it easy 👍👍
Stuck in with sciatica,
sun and blue skies,
When over the WiFi,
I hear the words 'o'right guys'!
Beautiful views,
Cracking fishing,
My mind starts a' thinking,
My heart starts a'wishing,
I wanna be fishing,
I wanna be by the sea,
I s'pose I'll make do,
and watch Riverside with Me 😅
Sorry... Must be the cocodamol and naproxen 😂
Superb bit of poetry there Mr Langley, clearly a man of many talents! Sorry to hear about the sciatica, annoying and painful and so I do sympathise. Although the painkillers seem to be making you jolly, every cloud and all that 😂. Hope you make a speedy recovery, no doubt you'll be up and running again very soon. Cheers bud 👍👍
Done it again Gareth well done great content and scenery work
Thank you Kev, always a pleasure. Not a productive session but enjoyable all the same. One of my favourite marks, I love it there. Cheers for watching, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
It's so sad that some anglers spoil it for everyone well done for doing what most of us would well done on the spoted always nice to see great video as always Gareth thanks for sharing looking forward to the next one
It certainly is sad Peter and it really frustrates me, no need for it. Yes it was great to see the Spotted Ray at the start, lovely looking fish. Not a busy session but enjoyable all the same. Cheers for watching, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
I will never understand this kind of behaviour if someone could have brought it with them they might as well take it back. Great film Gareth
Yes I'm the same Pawel, I just don't get it and seeing that amount of rubbish really frustrated me. Thank you, the fishing was a little slow but it was great to be out again. Cheers as always, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
It is a fishing video but a lot more. This is what it's all about, relaxing and taking in nature, fish are a bonus. Council should start paying you with the amount of rubbish you clean because they don't.
Yes you're right there Jeff, it's just nice being next to the water and at one with nature, the fish certainly are a bonus. Such a shame about the rubbish, I'm seeing more and more wherever I go and the problem seems to be getting worse. Hope all is good with you, cheers as always 👍👍
Excellent Gareth always been news paper at the marks even in the 80s when I was a kid I remember fishing the light house pub and seeing paper everywhere, rag worm wrap lol
Thanks Les, a quiet session but a pleasant way to spend a few hours. Ha yes, that ragworm wrap gets everywhere. That's not so bad I guess, it's all the plastic stuff which winds me up. Hope all is well, cheers for watching 👍👍
Hi Gareth
I really look forwards to your videos , I fish the dark side of the Bristol Channel , and I’m afraid to say we Also have littler lout this side
I’ve blanked again but like you say just getting out there is fantastic for the mind
Keep them coming there fantastic for guys like me learning the craft it’s been 50 years since I’ve fished Omg happy days
Regards
Al
Hi Al, nice to hear from you again. I need to do more fishing on your side of the Bristol Channel, I really like the look of some of the marks over there. Yeah not to worry about the blank, just nice being next to the water, that's what it's all about. Such a shame about the litter, always frustrates me when I see it. Cheers as always, have a good weekend 👍👍
Everywhere seems quiet at the moment mate, those little spotties do turn up in Barry around this time of year, great to see.
Yes you're right there Rob, things have have definitely slowed up, we'll hopefully see an improvement soon. Lovely little things aren't they, always nice to see. Cheers for watching, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Another cracking video buddy , always love the intros outstanding work .
Thank you Kevin, I appreciate that. A quiet session but I still enjoyed it, always nice to spend a few hours next to the water. Enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Excellent production, enjoyable watching, nice to something landed, shame it wasn't busy all session.
Thank you mate, I appreciate it. Funny session, that ray must have been the only fish out there ha! An enjoyable few hours though, was nice to be out again. Enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Nice 1 Gareth cracking video as always I fished the white light last weekend only 2 doggies keep them coming mate 👍👍👍
Thank you Nathan, appreciated as always. Sounds like you also had a tough session at the White Light, things do seemed to have dipped off a little. Hope all is well, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Well said about the rubbish, Gareth. I 100% agree that it’s not a hardship to bag it and bin it. Apart from that, another great watch and well done on catching because things have gone very quiet lately.
Thank you Wayne. I thought it was going to be one of those sessions when I had some first cast action but it wasn't to be. As you say, things have quitened off, hopefully it's just a temporary blip. Yeah not good is it, gives us anglers a bad name, the place was filthy which is a shame as it's such a nice mark. Cheers as always bud, have a good weekend 👍👍
Great video gar I was over Jacksons point today caught my first ever bass 5lb 2oz on a lure ,if it wasn't for subbing to your channel I wouldn't be out fishing ,thanks for inspiring me 2 get out and fish it's a great feeling helps with the depression and mental health keep the videos coming I love your content ,
That's a great fish bud, well done, a lot of anglers would love to catch a Bass of that size! I love Jackson's Bay, one of my favourite marks, I always look forward to going back. I'm pleased to hear that the channel has encouraged you to go fishing, good stuff. Hopefully more to come with a bit of luck. Cheers as always, take it easy 👍👍
Hi Gareth, I can't believe I missed this video, been busy, plus some sad news in the family. Loved video as always. All the best from South West Wales 👍
Sorry to hear that bud, hope all is ok. A quiet session but enjoyable all the same, one of my favourite marks is this one, many good memories. Cheers for watching, take care 👍👍
Brilliant vid as per usual come em coming all the best Gareth m8
Thank you Simon, much appreciated. Not a productive session but enjoyable all the same. Cheers as always, take it easy 👍👍
Didn’t blank lovely spotted good vid as always butty.
Thank you Darren, I think that was the only fish out there ha! An enjoyable few hours though, I love that mark. Have a good weekend 👍👍
Nice to see you out fishing again. Great start typical it went quiet then. Top man cleaning the scruffs mess up
Always the way isn't it bud, first cast fish and then nothing ha! Couldn't believe the amount of rubbish down there, not a pleasant site, although I made sure I collected every bit of it. Cheers as always, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Well done Gareth another great video. Such a great venue and a shame rubbish is left lying around. I have always made a point of clearing up rubbish especially fishing line as it spells the end to small birds if they get caught up. The background of Barry beach was great to see and it reminds me of many fishing sessions all around the Barry area. Great effort, well done, looking forward to your next one. Best regards.
Thank you Rob, nice to hear from you again and I'm pleased that the video brought back some good memories for you. Not a very productive session but enjoyable all the same, I love fishing there, something about it. Frustrating isn't it, takes seconds to bag up your rubbish, I don't get it. There was a load of fishing line to my left which I discovered towards the end of the session, as you say it's lethal for the birds as they rarely escape once entangled. Hope all is good with you, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Great video cracking fish makes me made all the rubbish being left had a carrier bag full last time of magor keep up the good work
Thank you Geraint, appreciated as always. A quiet session but enjoyable all the same. Shame about the litter isn't it, absolutely no need for it. Well done for picking it up down at Magor, not that you should have to. Cheers for watching 👍👍
Good to see you back Gareth with another great video....
I agree with you 100% about the rubbish left behind & unfortunately, as much as we'd like to blame others, it's left by anglers most of the time....can't work out why they don't take their crap home with them!!
Anyways buddy, nice little ray to show us & look forward to your next video....All the best....Jon.
Thank you Jon, always a pleasure. The curse of the first cast fish got me on this occasion ha! It looked so promising but I guess that's fishing for you. An enjoyable session though, always nice to spend a few hours down there. Makes no sense does it, takes seconds to bag up your rubbish, so frustrating and it kinda makes me see red. The problem seems to be getting worse, not good. Hope all is well, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Bad luck Gareth. You did manage to avoid the blank. You can only ever catch what is there. Kudos to you for doing your bit to keep the environment clean even though you shouldn't have to. Thanks for another great video.
Thank you David. Yes definitely, very quiet which surprised me as it looked so fishy out there, I blame the easterly wind ha! Not good is it, really frustrates me when I see rubbish left at marks, it's pure laziness, no need for it whatsoever. Seems to be getting worse, I'm seeing more and more wherever I go. Hope all is well, have a good weekend 👍👍
@@riversidewithme You have a good weekend too. We have a long weekend here.
@@davidwilliams6525 Thanks David. Can't beat a long weekend! 👍
Always look forward to a new edit m8 👌
Thank you Carl. A quiet session but enjoyable all the same, a nice way of spending a few hours. Hope you're on the mend. Cheers as always, take care 👍👍
Another enjoyable session Gareth. I quite fancy giving that mark a go myself!
Tight lines for the future as always 🏴
Thank you Matthew. Yeah give it a go, it's a cracking mark and on its day it can produce some nice fish. And of course, if the fishing is poor you can always walk over to the Island to get some chips! Have a good weekend 👍👍
Another belter of a fishing video Gareth. Shame you had to pick up other people's crap but that's the way it is today.... Get down the KNAP buddy, its fishing well 😉👍
Thank you Yolo, appreciated as always. Yeah not good is it, the rubbish problem seems to be getting worse, wasn't this bad when I was younger. Funnily enough I almost fished the Knap last week but changed my mind. I'm pleased to hear that's it's fishing well, I'll hopefully be back down there soon. Cheers for watching, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Lovely to see you Gareth. Great video and filming as usual. Pity about the litter louts, it doesn't take a lot to pick it up and bin it! It doesn't matter if you don't catch any fish, at least
you're getting out and about. Take care!
Thank you Patricia. It was nice to be out fishing again after a couple of weeks, only one fish but I enjoyed it. Yes it's such a shame and it gives us anglers a bad reputation, even though the majority of us respect the marks and are litter responsible. Have a good weekend 👍👍
Nice one Gareth mate , lovely shots of surroundings, and a smashing ray bud. Appreciate your efforts as always 👍🏼🎣
Thank you mate. Funny session, the first cast curse did me again ha! An enjoyable few hours out, was just nice to be back at one of my favourite marks. Cheers as always, take care 👍👍
Great video Gareth,
Litter everywhere, we were in Guernsey last week and it was the worst we’ve seen it.
Such a shame but it’s great that people like you pick it up.
Hopefully going to get some fishing in this week. Staying near Bridgend.🎣
Thank you Richard, appreciated as always. Shame the litter was so bad in Guernsey, never nice to see is it. Certainly seems to be getting worse, I'm seeing more and more rubbish wherever I go. Hope you manage to get some fishing in this weekend, some nice marks near Bridgend...tight lines! 👍👍
Your a good man
Thank you Gary, appreciated as always. Enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Great video - format and content. Thank you
Thank you Mark, appreciated as always. The curse of the first cast fish got me again ha! Nice few hours though, very enjoyable. Cheers 👍👍
Great video mate as always. love to see how well your channel has progressed of late. the editing is top notch. you, wayne aka shore hunter, dean at veals and graham the GOAT over at ta fishing are great watches.
keep up the great work dude.
Thank you mate, I appreciate it, nice of you to say. Bit of a tricky one to film this as the light first thing was very changeable but I just about managed it ha! Not much action but it was still nice to be out, always a pleasure wetting a line for a hours. Cheers as always, enjoy the weekend! 👍👍
Beautiful video again Gareth 👌👍
Thank you Leighton, appreciated as always. A quiet session but I enjoyed it, one of my favourite marks. Cheers for watching, take care 👍👍
That was a lovely video. I had no idea you could get rays there.
You are right about the litter it's bloody annoying. Looks horrible, a hazard for marine life and boat motors. Here where i am bottles cause fires. Its easy to just chuck in car and take home. Our maximum penalty for a person littering is $ 5000 and if they see it as Dumping then it's $ 62 000.
Last visit to Barry was November 1979. Left UK 1970
Take care all the best from Western Australia.
Thank you Chuck, much appreciated. Yes you can catch all of the Ray species around Barry, especially during Spring and Summer, they seem to be more common these days, whereas most other species have declined in numbers. The litter problem seems to be getting worse, I'm seeing more and more wherever I go, not good. Needs to be enforced better, fines would be good! Greetings to Western Australia, cheers for watching 👍👍
Top video as always mate and always good to see one from barry. Lovely little ray aswell so atleast you didn’t blank. Well done on picking up the rubbish, shouldn’t have to do it but if we dont nobody will!
Thank you Scott. I love Nells Point, had some great fishing there over the years. I caught that ray within minutes and I thought it was going to be an action-packed session but how wrong was I ha! Although the chips afterwards tasted good! It was filthy down there mate, absolutely no need for it, annoys me it does. Hope all is good with you, have a good weekend 👍👍
@@riversidewithme 😂😂 ye cant fault the chips lol, it gets bad at times with the tourists. You should see the beach early hours it’s disgusting and theres bins everywhere aswell 🙈
@@scottkenny7661 Yes I can imagine, especially when the weather is nice! No need for it, pure laziness. Tight lines for your next session bud 👍👍
Another nice video Gareth , great start to the day pity the bites dried up but some great scenic shots and as always very entertaining , look forward to the next one , cheers.
Thank you Philip, appreciated as always. I thought it was all going to kick off but I cursed it ha! Always happens when I get a fish first cast! It was a nice way of spending a few hours, I love it down there, it's a favourite mark of mine. Cheers for watching, take care 👍👍
Nice vid gareth beat the blank keep m coming cos we all injoy them. I fished swansea west pier 2 weeks ago blanked all day then i had 1 bite and cought a turbot i was buzzing never had 1 before but he only weighed 2lb and i couldn't put him back cos he swallowed the hook with a double sandeel bait had a good day out thro take care fella
Thank you mate, appreciated as always. Slow going but enjoyable all the same, was nice to be out again. Ah well done on the Turbot, that's a cracking result in fairness, great fish to catch. I was catching them down on Tenby North Beach a while back, they were taking a liking to frozen black lug tipped with squid. Usually the way isn't it, one bite one fish ha! Cheers as always, have a good weekend 👍👍
Another good video m8
Thank you Kirk, appreciated as always. I like this mark, one of my favourites as anything can turn up. Enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Another great video mate came across the video from your garden for brown trout the other night I’m jealous love to have a river in my back yard anything else in there apart from trout looking forward to the next one
Thanks bud, appreciated as always. Haha, it's not as glamorous as it looks, I live on the edge of a town and the River flows behind my garden. It's nice though, mostly wild Brown Trout and also some Sea Trout and Salmon every now and then. Could do with a drop of rain, bit low at the moment. Cheers 👍👍
I really enjoyed the video as I enjoy all of your video`s. You certainly have the knack with the camera for getting the best out of the scenery and wildlife even when the fish are not that obliging. Looking forward to your next offering. Gordon.
Thank you Gordon, appreciated as always. A quiet session but enjoyable all the same, it was a nice morning for it. One of my favourite marks and anything can turn up, although it's just a pleasure being there, lots of good memories. Hope all is good with you, cheers for watching 👍👍
Nice one mate, as with a lot of marks in the area, always entertaining trying to get your feet in a good position for a cast off Nells!…great vid as always 👍🙂
Haha you're right there, the amount of times I've slipped when casting off Nell's...maybe I should keep those clips for the Christmas bloopers special! A quiet session but enjoyable all the same. Cheers as always mate, have a good week 👍👍
Tell you what buddy, if you like fushing rock marks like that, your gonna love Anglesey if you ever get a chance. Theres more species like wrasse, pollack, coalie, tope, huss, big congers as well as what we catch down here to. Bottom fishing is still the same pace, although the water is clearer so lure fishing is very popular up there, everywhere. Cheapy ol boat rod will definitely get action with congers, 20lb+ and upwards is a common size up there. And ye, littering is a huge problem, and something no angler should cause. Another great video my dude 🤌👍
Thanks for the info. I definitely need to do more fishing up that way, the marks do look very appealing, a good variety. The marks I fish down here don't hold as many fish as they once did but I guess that applies to a lot of places, still good to get out though. Cheers 👍👍
Great video as usual. Always a great watch, especially when work has been stressful recently. Funny enough, I had my PB Smoothound when I was on holiday in Dorset a couple of weeks backs, and luckily enough to get a go on Chesil beach. I also caught it on ragworm, on a flapper rig intended for the flatties. Absolutely amazing fight and great fun.
Thank you John, much appreciated. A quiet session but it was an enjoyable few hours at one of my favourite marks. Well done on getting your PB Smoothound, the good old ragworm strikes again ha! Always the way isn't it, we spend all this time making specialist rigs for the bigger fish but the flapper rig often produces the goods! Cheers for watching, take care 👍👍
Great video as usual Gareth. We've still got the easterlies up here in the North East. Been about three weeks now 😢 We're still getting out and catching a few fish though 👍
Thanks Gary, much appreciated. A quiet session but it was still nice to be out. Good that you've been beating the easterly winds and getting a few fish, that's the way! Hopefully the South Westerlies are not too far away! Cheers for watching 👍👍
Nice start. Pity it didn't continue. I noticed the breakwater in porthcawl is open again. 🎣
Thanks Ian, I'll hopefully be down Porthcawl soon. A great start and then nothing, definitely the first cast fish curse ha! Enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Video quality up there as always, excellent editing. Here's to quality over quantity mate!
Thank you mate, I appreciate it. Nice mark down there in fairness, one of my favourites. A quiet session but it was nice to be out fishing again. Cheers as always, take it easy 👍👍
Good video again Gareth. I've always prefere a last cast fish to a first cast fish, I go home happier. As for the the morons that leave their rubbish behind, you won't shame them but thanks for trying. I caught 2 fish today from the back of my boat, sadly as it was inside the bay they were perch. Maybe get out through the lock next time.
Thank you David, appreciated as always. Yes definitely, a last cast fish is far more pleasurable ha! Very true, they won't care and will continue to leave their rubbish wherever they go, very sad. Well done on the Perch, I do have a bit of a soft spot for them, those green and black stripes, beautiful. Cheers for watching, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Mustn't grumble it was a good fish managed to get out last week end of Brighton marina had mackerel and small plaice can't remember last time I saw mackerel this early in the summer keep up the good work ❤
Can't argue with that John, always nice to get into the Mackerel shoals, sounds like you had a good session. As you say, it is early for them, hopefully a sign of things to come! Cheers for watching, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Nice video
Thank you mate, I appreciate it. Not much action but enjoyable all the same. Enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Another good video Gareth, I manage to get out for a few hrs on the Knap yesterday and blanked with only having 1 bite on sardine, nothing on squid, bluey and prawn. Left my Sand eel at home🤦🏻🤦🏻. Good to get out though, also as you say these easterlies have been here for a good 4-6 weeks now and hopefully get some SW winds soon. Keep the videos coming mate 👍🏻
Thank you Marc, appreciated as always. A quiet session but I guess that's fishing. Annoying isn't it when we forget to bring some of the bait, I've done it myself! Unlucky on the Knap blank but as you say, just nice being out, sat next to the water for a few hours. I've not fished off the pebbles for a little while and so I should get back down there really to give it another crack. Yes indeed, the South Westerlies can't be too far away now, things will hopefully pick up then. Hope all is well, cheers for watching 👍👍
Another great video Gareth and lovely scenery.
We truly are blessed with our coastline.
Shame the fish didn’t want to play ball after that little spotty but I can’t think of many better ways of spending a few hours.
I fished Aberavon recently early morning and the amount of rubbish strewn about in the dunes was outrageous.
Bottles,cans,bags,pizza box’s etc it was disgusting! (Most likely left by the masses of teenagers who take over the dunes every evening than anglers)
It just doesn’t make sense to me.
Keep em coming fella and as always thanks for sharing.
Thank you Richie, much appreciated. I thought it was all going to kick off when that Spotty came along on the first cast but it wasn't to be, I think I cursed it ha! As you say though, a great way of spending a few hours, can't beat it. Shame about the rubbish down at Aberavon, not good is it. I don't understand the mentality, takes seconds to bag up your rubbish, pure laziness. No fishing for me this weekend as I have some jobs to do but will hopefully be out next week if I can get a day off work. Hope all is well, have a good weekend 👍👍
My wife and son were walking the dogs where you mention and she came back complaining because of the glass. Same behind the marina in Swansea where the dunes are covered in syringes and it's too dangerous to go.
@@jeffcole5708Not good is it Jeff. I took a walk along my local river last night and there was smashed glass at one of the weirs. I just don't get it.
another great video gareth lovely place quiet sesh but the ray beats the blanks still lovely to get out look forward to the next take care mate
Thank you Chad, appreciated as always. Not much activity during this session but I still enjoyed it, one of my favourite marks and it can fish well on its day. The chips afterwards tasted good ha! Hope all is well, cheers bud 👍👍
@@riversidewithme brilliant mark I've had some good times there myself and it's always great to get out and u can't beat some chips afterwards all is well here hope the same for you an the fam mate look forward to the next one take it easy bud.
@@valleyfishinghuntinguk3921 Good stuff, thanks bud 👍
Thanks again for another great video Gareth. The work you put in to the whole creation of your films is outstanding. You work your bo..ocks off for the content you put out. I can't believe that you haven't got half a million subs, honestly mate. There are fishing CZcams channels that are not fit to lace your boots yet they have hundreds of thousands of subs. You'll get there mate, you deserve to for sure.
I and the rest of your faithful will always be there anyway mate 👍🏻
Thank you Steve, that's nice of you to say. A quiet session but I still enjoyed it, a lovely mark in fairness, one of my favourites. I probably started my CZcams venture a little late hence why the channel isn't growing that quickly. So many fishing channels nowadays whereas a few years ago there weren't half as many and those channels grew extremely quickly as a result. I'll keep going for now and hopefully I can keep things ticking over and I appreciate the fact that my loyal subscribers like yourself keep on watching. With a bit of luck I'll be fishing some new marks this year too. Cheers as always, have a good week 👍👍
@@riversidewithme
I don't agree mate, your CZcams channel could have been started anytime, your love of fishing shines through.
Commercially, there are lots of angles for you to become a psychoanalyst fisherman. You speak real human talk and you appeal to the normal man. You have skills that transcend fishing mate, you are a guru.
@@TessTickles00 Thanks Steve, I guess I'm just being myself. Naturally, I'm quite a deep thinker, hence why I like to talk about real life etc and I think folk enjoy that as it's relatable 👍
Lovely video again. I hope you recharged afterwards with some chips at Barry Island pleasure dome 😊
Thanks our lad. It's weird walking through Barry Island at 4:30am when it's completely empty. I finished filming at around 1pm and popped into the chippy on the way back to the carpark... absolutely super! See you in the Hall of the County 👍👍
well done - the litter crikey - it gets everywhere. Take it easy - im looking forward to the start of the river season where I am. Hopefully get out end of month !
It certainly does mate and the problem seems to be getting worse. Which River do you fish?? Are you not based in the UK??
@@riversidewithme fishing a stretch of baa @ nafford ... Below weir stretch .they have some decent natural waters if you look hard enough. Was looking for an eel venue but need access to a landlocked private late. Given up with that
@@anguillaanguila7255Ah right, got you. Yes the 16th June is fast approaching. Certainly does seem to be some nice waters up that way, hope you have some good success 👍
Cracking video and good editing
Thank you Christopher, much appreciated. Not many fish about that day but enjoyable all the same. Cheers for watching 👍👍
@@riversidewithme how about a day on the Loughor estuary sometime after the flounder.
@@christopherbroad I like the Loughor and it's certainly on my to-do list, not fished for a couple of years now 👍
@riversidewithme when you do the Loughor estuary give me a shout it would be great to meet up and wet a few lines.
Another great video Gareth, some cracking mood shots there pal, The way the fishing started I thought you were going to have a belter of a session, but as you said “that’s fishing “
I’m a bit late watching this as I’m up Scotland and the internet where I am is pants lol
Well done on the ray though pal
🎣🎣
Thank you Nigel, appreciated as always. I cursed it, always the way when I catch a fish the very first cast ha! A nice little session though, decent weather and it's one of my favourite marks, so many great memories. Hope you're having a good time up in Scotland, no doubt you've taken your fishing rod!! Cheers bud, tight lines! 👍👍
Thank you for another excellent video Gareth. I must admit that you have a way of making fishing more than just catching fish. I have been fishing most of my adult life and I can remember some amazing fishing trips. I am restricted to boat fishing these days and I must admit at times it seems like I am fishing in a wasteland where fish are few and far between. Commercial pressures on fish stocks are having an increasingly negative effect on recreational angling which makes it even more important to take what you can from the activity itself......enjoy the setting, the fresh air, the beauty that surrounds us (apart from the litter of course). Fishing has to be about more than catching fish....never thought that I would say that!. Once again thank you for all the time and effort you take with your videos...don't push yourself into making more content if you don't have the time. Quality not quantity is a good maxim. All the best P
Thank you Paul, I appreciate it. A quiet session but I still enjoyed it, always nice to spend a few hours at that spot. Yes I agree, recreational fishing is getting harder and harder as the fish stocks continue to dwindle as a result of commercial over-fishing. It's very sad and you do wonder where it will all end. If it carries on like it is then I think the seas will be pretty much empty within 50 years. Money and greed seem to be the dominating factors and hardly any of it is sustainable. That's it, fishing for me nowadays is all about getting out, spending a bit of time next to the water and taking it all in, my therapy if you like and any fish I catch are a bonus. Hope all is good with you, cheers for watching 👍👍
nice vid mate
Thank you Laurance, much appreciated. It was a nice morning for it. Enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Another great video, good job picking up the litter, I collected two bin bags from my local mark last week, was disgusting down there.
Thank you Ed, much appreciated. Well done on picking up the rubbish, even though you shouldn't have to. Terrible isn't it and I seem to be seeing more and more of it. Cheers for watching 👍👍
Another great video thanks for sharing. I share your frustration for the amount of rubbish that was left ,I have picked up loads myself it’s annoying to think that some people just don’t care.Anyway keep up the good work and tight lines.
Thank you mate, nice to hear from you again. A slow session but it was nice to be out. Yeah the amount of rubbish down there was upsetting to see, I just don't get it, so frustrating as you say. Hope you're well, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
@@riversidewithme And a very good weekend to you as well.
@@mrskint55 Thanks bud 👍
Hi gareth great watch as the uze cheers fellar. The last 2 weeks its been grim in grimsby with the old north easterlys , it has been so cold. At last the last 2 days the smog has gone and its blue sky and there is axsun up there lol. All the best from GRIMSBY
Thank you Carl, appreciated as always. A quiet session but enjoyable all the same, it was a nice morning for it. Ah pleased to hear you've got a bit of sun at last ha! I'm hoping the south westerlies are not too far away, hopefully the fishing will be a little better then. Cheers mate, take it easy 👍👍
Fishing and art. Who could ask for anything more. The wind in SE Kent has been strong for a month. Usually from the land but very uncomfortable and drying for the garden.
Thank you Robert, pleased that you like the format. Ah yes, it's been the same up this way, bright sunshine with very strong winds, not good at all. Hopefully the south westerlies are not too far away. Cheers as always 👍👍
Cracking start for you , just a shame it didn’t continue like that , that’s fishing 😩
Ha yes, I thought it was going to be a good session after that nice bit of first cast action. I definitely cursed it, next time I'll keep my mouth shut ha! Enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Cracking vid again m8 ,keep em coming
Thank you John, always appreciated. A quiet session but enjoyable all the same, a nice mark in fairness, one of my favourites. Cheers for watching, take care 👍👍
@@riversidewithme love your vids m8 ,honest and as it happens , no bullshit, thanks,
@@johnmorris2346 Thanks bud, hopefully more to come 👍
Im sure i saw Uncle Brin in the backgroud , ? great vid Boyo !
Yes you did David, he was fishing to my right. He caught loads of fish but when I asked what bait he was using, he wouldn't tell me! Cheers for watching, take care 👍👍
Thanks mate , a Welsh man with a sense of humour ! good on on you lad X better luck next time lol x
Cracking video once again gareth mate..Well done on the ray to beat the blank too..I love that mark I've had some nice bass from there over the years..Well done on collecting the rubbish mate but the minority spoil such lovely marks dont they 😠😠
Thank you Nathan, appreciated as always mate. Great mark isn't it, something about it, always looks good, especially when the tide turns. A quiet session but I enjoyed it, first time I'd been out in a couple of weeks. Yes it's such a shame and I think the problem is getting worse, I'm seeing more and more rubbish wherever I go, not good! Cheers for watching, have a good week 👍👍
your right about the easterlys gareth, never known them last as long as they are, certainly screwing up the lure fishing.
Yes definitely bud, things do seem to be slow at the moment. I'm sure that a week of south westerlies will improve things, hopefully they will arrive soon! Enjoy the weekend 👍👍
Cheers, Gareth! I hope those messy bastards get the message!
You're welcome Lord Ludlow. I suspect they won't care and will continue to leave their litter wherever they go, very sad indeed. Cheers as always, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
@@riversidewithme you too Squire!
@@JohnnyLudlow Thanks bud 👍
Another great video. I mostly coarse fish and the litter is atrocious even on some out of the way waters
Thank you Craig, much appreciated. Not good is it, the problem seems to be getting worse if anything. I like a bit of coarse fishing myself, hoping to fish my local canal within the next week or so. Cheers for watching 👍👍
just subscribed ! , just incase you get lucky lol , Good Luck !
Thanks for subscribing David, I appreciate it. Hopefully more to come soon with a bit of luck 👍
I don’t fish, I’m personally a beach comber and my passion is both history and natural science, but I live in Penarth and I’m always interested to see what’s going on around the corner!
Sounds good James, I've always liked the idea of beachcombing, the anticipation of finding something of real interest. Yes I like natural history myself, it's one of the main reasons I go fishing as I love being at one with nature. Thank you for watching 👍👍
Great vid!! have you ever fished aberavon beach? some nice hound fishing to be had
Thank you Ethan, much appreciated. Yes I have fished Aberavon beach but not for a while, it's on my list to try again this year, I do like a bit of beach fishing. Cheers for watching 👍👍
Another cracking watch , the minority of dopey litter bugs spoil it for the decent anglers sadly
Thank you Mike, appreciated as always. Shame isn't it and the problem seems to be getting worse, I'm seeing more and more litter these days. Have a good weekend 👍👍
Hey Gareth
I’m off Fridays just give me a shout if you want to come over the dark side
Regards
Al
Thank you Al, I shall bear that in mind, cheers 👍
Hi Gareth, great video as always.. never ceases to amaze me how people take stuff to a mark and be too bone idle to take it away with them......
On a different subject, what is the smallest and biggest tides you would consider fishing the transporter bridge???
Thanks. Martyn.
Thank you Martyn, appreciated as always. Yes exactly, no need for it and the problem seems to be getting worse if anything. As for the transporter bridge, the smallest tide I'd fish it on would be 9.3m and the biggest 10.8m. The spot where I fish is currently closed off as the flood defence bund is being upgraded but you can fish on the other side of the river. Cheers 👍👍
@@riversidewithme very much appreciated, thank you.👍👍👍👍
Hi Gareth cracking session as always 👍 where do you park down there mate?? As I've had a ticket or two when fishing the white light 😂
Thank you James, appreciated as always. So for this mark, I parked in the Harbour Road Carpark which is open 24/7, 10 minute walk or so. Or you can park in Nell's Point Carpark which is right next to the mark but that doesn't open until 8am. As for the white light, parking is now a problem...I either park in Nell's Point Carpark and walk around (if tide times are right) or if fishing an early morning tide, I park above Jackson's Bay within the white lined area as you get two hours parking but as long as you're gone by 11am it shouldn't be a problem if you're there for longer. So I fished it the other week, arrived at 6am, left at 10:30am and no problems...I'm assuming the 2 hours start from 9am when they start checking. Cheers 👍👍
you know what ? ive been to Barry quite a few times , never thought about fishing from the left side of the beach , im 3.40 mins into this vid im guessing conger ,dogfish ? i continue x
I would have been more than happy with some Doggies and Congers, given how slow the session was ha 😂
I had a good session down porthcawl 2 weeks fished night tide in and out caught 36 doggies 😂😂
Wow, I think 36 doggies in one session must be a new record, that's a proper busy session 😂. Cheers 👍👍
Fishing 3 rods and 9 hooks 😂😂 I run out of bait in the end 😂
@@BEATTHEBLANK Haha no wonder, with all of those hungry Doggies about! 😂😂
Great video again Gareth. The inconsiderate idiots that leave the litter cant be classed as true fisherman. They are just the mindless idiots who lose us true fisherman our fishing marks. On a positive note, how often do we catch on our first cast raising our expectations only to be dissapointed. On other occassions as you said, we watch our motionless rod tips and ready to give up, only to bag up on the ebb. 🤣👍
Thank you Andy, appreciated as always. Such a shame about the litter, always frustrates me when I see it and as you say, they are not true fishermen. Haha yes, always the way isn't it whereby we catch a fish first cast and then nothing. I definitely cursed it, I should have kept quiet 😂. Not a busy session but it was nice to be out again, lovely mark in fairness and I've had some good fish off there over the years, never quite know what's going to turn up. Cheers for watching, enjoy the weekend 👍👍
i Nearly said Ray Lol x
Ha I bet! The first cast curse got me again! I think that Ray was the only fish out there that day! Nice mark though, anything can turn up 👍
Hi bud need some advice if u can shed some
Hi Martin, what advice do you need??
Can everyone see my comments
@@martinwilson3707 You can email me if you like - riversidewithme@outlook.com
Is there parking near this location??
You can either park in Nell's Point carpark which is right next to the mark (opens at 8am) or there's another carpark a little further away called Harbour Road (open 24/7)
That's awesome can u park there through the night at any of these parking spots
24/7 one would be the better option, thank you for the quick reply mte, and well done on your catch
@@danielgalliford3570 I always park in the 24/7 one. No probs, cheers for watching 👍👍
Ok mate thank you for your feed back
Tidy.......!
Thanks Steven, I certainly left the place looking a lot more 'tidy' than when I arrived. Cheers 👍👍
Little bit disorientated.. could see a fair/circus in the background and thought you were in Cardiff.. (>.
Yeah Barry this time, although I'm not a fan of the big rides and so I stuck to the fishing! Cheers 👍👍
Unfortunately, some people are complete arseholes, but if everyone was the same, what a boring world we would live in
Very true Ralph, ruins it for the rest of us. I seem to be picking up more and more rubbish nowadays, not good. Cheers for watching 👍👍
Another cracker buddy! good to see you out as we cant get out, keep up the good work buddy, stay safe see you on the rocks X
Thank you Matt. The curse of the first cast fish strikes again ha! Sorry to hear you can't get out, frustrating isn't it when that happens. I'm only getting out twice a month at the moment and that's bad enough but it must be worse for you, hope you get a session in soon! Enjoy the weekend, tight lines 👍👍
@@riversidewithme with some luck will be out next weekend buddy have a good un to mucker love to all X
@@castersfishingwales2038 Tidy son, tidy! Likewise ❤️
As always a great vid.. you wont always catch loads, im an excillent blanker.. but you always make me enjoy watching.. i feel you about the rubbish.. im always bringing home the trash of fishing litterlouts.. even on remote marks.. i got a whole bucket of lost line on my shelf now.. always makes me mad.. the 3 hook pully is an interesting idea.. im curretly digging through my rig books to find an example.. i could be very useful for winter cod down barry.. where those snags are leathal.. i myself love the running ledger.. even made an inline gripper out of carp leads.. with exchangble hooklenghs.. for different baits and targets and venues.. but a 3 hook pully has me intriged.. ❤
Thanks bud, appreciated as always. A quiet session but enjoyable all the same, always nice to get out isn't it. Shame about the litter, the problem seems to be getting worse, very sad. Well done on picking up the litter when you're out and about, even though you shouldn't have to. I don't get the mentality of some people, why they think it's acceptable to leave their litter at these marks is beyond me. I've not heard of the three hook pulley rig before but it does sounds interesting and it's worth a try. Yes, I myself like the running ledger, an old classic but very productive, nice and simple too which is probably why it's so effective. Hope all is good with you, cheers for watching 👍👍
