  • A quick session turns into non-stop action with myself having difficulty keeping bait in the water, its action-packed, and keeps on rolling. It's a must watch!

    First comment on your channel mate, been watching yours and johns channel a while now.
    Loved the video mate top stuff.
    I’ve never tried limpet in darkness before think you’ve inspired me to try it. I’ve used it a lot for wrasse/pollack in daytime when short on bait and always caught on it. It certainly bulked the baits up nice 👍
    You would imagine that cod, bass and other species would eat them even as a plain bait.
    Tight lines, all the best.
    Karl

    • @thatsabite
      @thatsabite  Před rokem

      Thanks for the kind words mate, means an awful lot!
      The limpets is the first time I've fished with them and proved out to be OK as plumping up the bait as you say! I believe the wrasse will love them from what I've read!
      However, it's the muscles I want for the cod, I think I know where they are in abundance, so I'll go and check over low water. Tight lines buddy, and thanks for watching!

      Anywhere from the arches up to rhos is sand, to the right of the arches (as you look at the sea) is very snaggy. Goof though, but rotten bottoms and expect gear loss.

    I'm new to sea fishing Mike. The limpets you used, would you think it would be a good idea to stick them on a dongle? Would that be a good idea, or not?
