What Lloyd forgot to mention is that Monknash is very popular with naturists in the summer, where different types of rod n tackle can be on display. Beautiful beach and like Ogmore a little further down the coast, your usually more likely to catch than not.
@@BanditFishingUK very helpful thank you, being very cheeky but please could you do a episode for sully sand spit with the same info 😉 ,thanks again for all your hard work, very watchable and informative
@@nigelmurgatroyd5027 yes by all means if I remember to do one on the spit I will. The only thing about the spit is how dangerous it can be and obviously I don’t want to put anyone in that sort of situation.
Thanks again for all the info, managed to fish monknash for the first time this weekend, incredibly place, a long way from Lincoln but well worth it, and managed to find a pb small eye just under 10lb very happy, keep safe guy's 👍
Brilliant as always totally enjoyed watching you got your just rewards Lloyd well done on your target fish buddy again great video looking forward to seeing the next one tight lines buddy 🎣 👍
eazy lads you all ok. well done lloyd cracking vid as uze. what a beautiful mark to fish lads. already looking forward to next vid. All the best chaps from grimsby.
Thanks Adam!! Was one of those sessions but we can’t always just expect to catch. Hopefully you can come down soon and have a crack at them with me and Phil 🎣🎣
Me and my mate fished Monknash last year we had a red letter day I lost count of how many rays we caught was a 3hr drive for us we stayed a couple of days and fished friars too . We had 5 blondes between us and a fair few spotted and loads of Smalleyed rays . In the end I was catching so many Smalleyeds around 5 to 6 pound I cast out half of mackerel to keep the little one at bay and caught a 10.5lb smalleyed which was a PB for me and it was all in the day
It can certainly be one of those beaches. And you don’t know what will turn up. Last year had a session with friends and we had. Hounds bass, 3 types of rays. It was fantastic
Thanks for watching mate, I’ve never made the bar itself only bought them. The mono body does the same job but are fiddly to make and lots of components.
Not sure what you’ve done to the sound on this video but it only comes out of one headphone / speaker (right) same when played on iPad, checked other videos it’s something in this ones sound profile. Edit; it’s just your voice audio the audio from the cameras seems to work, it’s a very strange listen 😂
Thanks for pointing this out. When I edited the video it wasn’t apparent or perhaps I was oblivious to it. We use a wireless microphone set up that can connect to 2 mics so perhaps in the settings it was set up as a duel and subsequently played from one mic. I Will keep an eye out for it happening in the future. Thanks for watching
LIoyd Just a quick one fishing there this sat night with someone who fished there before what rigs to use & sizes please i make up 1 of those bagnall rigs to take with me did you say 80lb all the way or 80 lb 3 ft body & snood 2 to 4ft size 3/0 hooks 👍🐟
Really strong rods mate, ideal for fishing around here they do lack a little in the tip for bite detection on smaller fish light whiting when you’re fishing at range but that’s the only down side to them.

Hahahah it’s all part of the experience. I vary rarely fish there in daylight so yet to see such sights
Great to see you guys out again, very much a venue on my list to visit, many thanks and tight lines guys
Thanks for watching Nigel, hopefully the info on where to park and walk helped for when you do get around fishing there.

Great Video!! - I often use those non bar rigs.... Great Rigs :)
Brilliant as always totally enjoyed watching you got your just rewards Lloyd well done on your target fish buddy again great video looking forward to seeing the next one tight lines buddy 🎣 👍
Thanks Levo, hopefully out next weekend for another session. Unfortunately tides, times and family stuff means we couldn’t film this weekend.
Great work Pembroke, spirit undiminished, branching upwards, getting to the root of problems, budding prospects, twigged it immediately...
Thanks for watching
glad you caught that spotted Sir.........as losing the will to live is a thing when feeding ray baits to dogs.......Thank you for Sharing......
Thanks for watching, unfortunately that’s the problem we have this way. When the dogs are around it’s so difficult to get through to the rays.
eazy lads you all ok. well done lloyd cracking vid as uze. what a beautiful mark to fish lads. already looking forward to next vid. All the best chaps from grimsby.
Cheers for watching as always Carl 👍👍
Another great video Lloyd.
I fished there Saturday night but just dogs for me. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching Rich, it’s a tad early at the moment but rays are coming off the beach. 17lb blonde was caught there on Sunday.
Another top vid Lloyd! I’ve only fished monknash twice and blanked both times 🤣🤣
It’s a hard old beach at times. I’ve been very lucky on there. Always managed a doggy 👍😂
Well done ,Lloyd ,cracking little video ,and you both did well catching target species
Thanks for watching as always Chris 🎣🎣🎣
Nice video lloyd, a beach I’m going to have to try soon. Nice heads up on the honesty box too. Know to bring some cash with me now 🎣

@@BanditFishingUK definitely pal will arrange something soon, need a blondie in my life 😂 🎣
Awesome video mate.
Cheers Gary 👍👍
Stuck on easy access marks now unfortunately but had some good sessions down there over the years. Well done on sticking it out for your target bud👍
Thanks for watching Wayne, bit of a long walk by as you say it’s relatively easy to access. 👍

Can you fish this mark on high tide
I've made a lot of non bar rigs over the years very versatile rig a good all-rounder 👍
Hi mate. They definitely are. I made a few years ago but for some reason went away from them. Will have a really good go this year tho
Nice video again lads👏🐟
Thanks for watching Gary. Hope you enjoyed it 👍
Friday I had my first spotted ray on friars a 4 pound one
Thats a cracker of a spotted mate. Well done 👍 🎣🎣🎣
Nice video as always we’ll on the spotted ray guys
Cheers Andy; it was a real struggle that day.
Tough going but at least you caught in the end 🎣. I prefer the mono body,much easier to make 💪
Thanks for watching mate, I’ve never made the bar itself only bought them. The mono body does the same job but are fiddly to make and lots of components.
Just bought some Bagnall Bars for plaice fishing but looks like they are equally good for fishing a flowing trace for rays. 👍🏻
They can do it all. It’s a very versatile rig, check out Christchurch angling CZcams channel. Tom fished for rays with the bars on there.
Well done guys
Thanks big Dean, session soon…. Just have to get permission from the main boss lady 😂
Problley the best ray beach in the uk 👍
you could well be right Mark. South Wales is definitely the best ray fishing in the UK don’t think it can be topped for variety and size.

Recommend please place where to fish 🐠 close from Barmouth!
Hi, unfortunately we don’t know that area. Try searching for groups on Facebook you may get information from there
LIoyd
Just a quick one fishing there this sat night with someone who fished there before what rigs to use & sizes please i make up 1 of those bagnall rigs to take with me did you say 80lb all the way or 80 lb 3 ft body & snood 2 to 4ft size 3/0 hooks 👍🐟
Hi Gary, pulleys are 2.5 feet hooklenghths and I think the bar had 2 and 4 foot; yes 80lb rig body and snoods used on that day.
Nice beach mate travelling down for the next big tides4 hr drive need a spotty and a blonde b down for the weekend any info appreciated
Hi Lloyd what u think about ocean waders and what model have u got
Cracking video as always Llody mate cheers for sharing buddy. Whats your thoughts on the GTs mate?
Really strong rods mate, ideal for fishing around here they do lack a little in the tip for bite detection on smaller fish light whiting when you’re fishing at range but that’s the only down side to them.
Hi Lloyd can u only fish here on low tides or can u fish here on high tides thanks
What cool box u using and what do u think of it enjoying videos thanks
Hi stu, it’s a Coleman 15ltr box. It’s 1 day Ice so really does keep bait fresh. Had packets of mackerel stay frozen the whole session.
Do that mean u just poor ice straight in thanks again
@@stuartcross749 no it’s the rating on the coolbox. Basically means it will keep ice frozen for a day.
How do you get to the car park mate? Thanks
The field with honesty box is opposite New Mill Farm, Monknash, Cowbridge. CF71 7QQ.
nice vid, maybe next time you have a little bit of weed and a fish, best deal with the fish first
Fair point, will be mindful next time. Thanks for watching 👍👍🎣🎣
