A CRACKING FISH And A Day To Remember - Sea Fishing UK

  • A PB for me at this STUNNING Bristol Channel Sea Fishing spot. This is one of my favourite South Wales Fishing marks, I have been visiting it for years and I have accumulated many great memories. Many of the Severn Estuary Sea Fishing areas are soothing, the wildlife and nature is second to none and there's always something to see, it doesn't get much better when it comes to supporting mental health. This particular spot is good for Bass, Conger Eels, Thornback Ray and Flounder. During the winter months, Cod can also make an appearance.
    Thank you for watching, it is very much appreciated!
    Cheers
    Gareth #riversidewithme

    Gareth….. these are great videos. I came across them by chance and you have re-ignited my love of sea fishing after near 50 years leaving my childhood in Plymouth. Ive started to go with my two grown up lads. We don’t catch much but we are getting better ! But it’s the time we are having together that is food for the soul. Thank you and please keep going 👍👍

      Thank you Mark, much appreciated. I'm pleased you're enjoying the videos, hopefully more to come soon. Yes that's what it's all about, spending quality time next to the water and with the important people in your life, the fish are just a bonus. I don't catch that many fish nowadays but still love being out there. Cheers for watching 👍

When I first seen the strike and the initial fight I thought a good eel then as it went on I then thought a huge thorny to be fair but well done mate great eel only had the one double off the beach but it was 20lb 10 so not to have 😂😂

Some nice Bass can also make an appearance, usually from late April onwards. Hope all is good with you bud, have a good weekend 👍

    Really needed that video Gareth. My wife and I( she has recovered well from her stroke )had to rush over to Bristol from Ireland. Our new and only granddaughter decided to enter the world at just 25 weeks and weighing just a pound and a half. She is doing well thank goodness but so tiny.

Ah 25 weeks is very premature isn't it, although I'm pleased to hear that she is doing well, that must be a relief for all of you, no doubt she'll be fine. Cheers as always, take care 👍
