hiya mate , the big ones first then the smaller ones follow always the same init chap , it might be a good season if the water cools down a bit . good luck mate and happy new year
Well done, cracking cod!! Been watching your videos for a while now and it’s good to see all the effort paid off 🎣👍🏼 Keep the dongles for the summer buddy, rays & hounds. Stick to the pully pennel for the winter I would 👍🏼 great video.
@@SOMERSETBEACHFISHINGtony I’ve done the same, lost fish on dongles. Happy new year to you too buddy. Keep the videos coming 👌 hope you land an even bigger 1 next time 🤞🏼🎣
What a cracking cod Tony. Well deserved. Havent seen a cod around the South East coast this year😫. Look forward to the next vid. Happy New Year to you mate.
lol mike im not sure about that mate , i must admit i wasnt expecting that . the cod have been slower to come in this year mike sea is to warm . take care chap and happy new year to you
Now thats a cod 😱 well done Tony mate. Would you send some over this way please 🤣 Fair play you had a great year this year. Hope you a good new year and all the best mate 👍🎣
@SOMERSETBEACHFISHINGtony I always found Lilstock spooky Tony, almost as someone was watching you! I'm glad I'm not the only one. Happy New Year, and keep the videos coming. Thanks.
Well done Tony you managed to find one of those elusive cod I've seen them in sea angler 😂 Lol. If I'd caught it it'd be going for a table fish also. Tight lines mate 😊
hi allen , many thanks mate , she was a beauty until recently i would never put anything over 5lb on youtube but i think the fishermen who fish the bristol channel need to see there is some nice fish about and give them a bit of inspiration to get out there . happy new year to you and yours mate
This right or left of the pipe. New to the area bout hr away. I fished this 2 weeks ago. Lost so much tackle 😂 fished 20m left of the pipe, gave up in the end. Need to try get down at low water see where the reefs are.
Hi dan, if your gonna fish the pipe mate fish to the right of it chap , good idea to look at it over low tho you can get a feel for the place , good luck on your next visit matey , you need a good cast to fish it over high water
hiya mate , well gareth and mark are top anglers , like me they would probably have one rod out for rays or conger on a dongle rig . thats the problem you just dont know whats out there ,,, take care mate and happy new year to you
Wow, that's an absolute beauty of a cod. It looked like you went back in time to the 1990,s for a bit, when there was more of those decent cod about, amazing session, exciting watching those bites aswell, well done m8. That's given me some inspiration.
What's the parking like there these days?... Fished 8 lug on a wishbone rig at Lady Bay and got a 14 lb off the rocks,.. Luckily with the help of a guy gaffing it for me.. Back a decade ago.
Great video and well rewarded. I am now unable to scramble cliffs or walk miles to get to a venue, but that looks great. How far have you walked to get there? Also what is a 'dongle' rig ? I've not heard of them before. Cheers Al.
hello al, the lilstock venue is not bad to fish on but realy a low water mark unless you can cast at least 160 yards to get on sand at high water . if you look on google maps find lilstock then find the car park which is free to park , the beach is a five minute walk from the car park , be prepared to loose a few leads tho mate , hope that helps chap . happy new year to you
The car park tends to be busy with the fossil hunters so pick afternoon / evening tides best. Must pay an overdue visit soon with a bag of frozen baits to use up.... Tight lines, lads. Nice cod, Tony.
@@frederickpritchard994 hiya mate , there is some nice fish all around the reefs etc mate between blue anchor and hinckley point at the moment , dust your tackle of mate . all the best for 24 and good luck
hi martin yeah your right mate the dongle rig works great with rays and hounds they have small mouths , so standard pulley rig is much better for the cod etc, have a great new year chap all the best
A stunning shore caught fish mate . Well deserved.
Thank you sir
Great capture matey and to catch the fight on camera brilliant 👌
