  • Sea Fishing at Sidmouth in East Devon, next to Jacob's Ladder. A new mark for me and what a beautiful part of the Jurassic coastline, absolutely stunning! I was actually on holiday but as is always the case when I go away, my fishing rods just had to be used!
    Thank you for watching, it is very much appreciated!

    I’ve been watching your channel for a while now. Your very personable and relatable. I enjoy your scenic pics and how you do them. I also love the fact your talk about your dad and how close you hold him to your heart. Everything else is irrelevant really, you do want you do and love it. I’ll continue watching mate, keep it up

      Ah thank you Nicky, I appreciate it and I'm pleased to hear that you're enjoying the videos, hopefully more to come. I must admit that I do enjoy reminiscing about Dad, I guess it's good to keep those memories alive. I just enjoy being next to the water, that's what it's all about for me nowadays and the fish are a bonus. Cheers for watching, have a nice weekend 👍👍

    When the wind is in the East the fish bite the least, when the wind is in the West the fish bite the best!!, Father always use to say that saying being old & wise he was nearly right most of the time. Beautiful to see the flowers, leaves out & the birds singing. Wonderful video again Gareth, keep them coming.

    • @andyrobins288
      @andyrobins288 Před rokem +1

      Another great video again Gareth. Loved the scenery shots. Makes it a 'good to be alive feel'. Doggies saved the day again. Before my father in law who lived in East Devon passed in 2020 i used to fish Sidmouth 3 to 4 times a year. The mainstay was always doggies and straps and odd decent bass. One rough day i lost what was possibly a double figure bass in the backwash so it can throw up the odd good fish. Look forward as always to the next video👍

    • @riversidewithme
      @riversidewithme  Před rokem

      And I think your father was spot on Spencer, I can't ever remember having a good session on an Easterly wind. Yes the gardens above the cliff were lovely, the colours on the flowers were impressive and the Blackbirds were on good form, just a nice place to be. Cheers as always, enjoy the weekend 👍👍

    • @riversidewithme
      @riversidewithme  Před rokem

      Thank you Andy, much appreciated. The sea was a little challenging due to the strong easterly wind but it was great to be out fishing again. Ah yes, I bet you have some good memories of fishing down there when your father in law was still with us. Shame you lost that big Bass, gutting when that happens isn't it, that sinking feeling! It does look bassy down there and I shall look forward to giving it another try. Enjoy the weekend 👍👍

    Welcome to my neck of the woods Gareth. Love your content mate. You had a few fish at least. It does throw up some decent huss and bass there. Had a few thornys aswell. It's a beautiful part of the world as you say. I think some need reminding just how lucky we are to live in a country so gorgeous. I always feel free when I'm by the sea. Hate being in the city and in the rat race.

    Morning Gareth,travelled round the world and Sidmouth my fav place, used to stay bnb on a farm up Pin Barton hill called Pin Barton.
    Working farm great rooms and farmers wife done best brekkie ever even sausage were home made.
    And from a near by gravel carpark they did Badger watching fantastic.
    Fished that mark a few times dusky conditions the best for me a few good sized flatties of different species many pan size and a couple of Bass 3 to 5 lbers.
    Lots of Dogs of cause,remember speaking to an old chap in The Ship Inn on the front whilst having my many pint of prawns there delice too he put me on to drizzling sardine oil over me Rag worms overnight.
    Aye Aye i thought he,s having me here but fairplay i didn,t look back work for me anyway caught Bass and a few other preditory fish on them.
    Great vid as usual on a footnote had my worst sunburn ever on Siddy front hired a deckchair it was about 17c and overcast breezy two hrs went back to farm in shower i was like a cooked lobster and screamed the place down.
    Looked like you enjoyed yourself nice place to recharge the old batteries and feel fresh again, keep up the good work Gareth it is much appreciated by many of us.
    Only downside is that them Caster boys will be cursing you nicking one of their Weed Fish LOL brill as usual keep well and keep safe best wishes ftom Gozo

      Hi Michael, nice to hear from you again..Well who'd have thought that Sidmouth was your most favourite location, sounds like you have some fantastic memories of the place, I enjoyed reading your comment. Lovely place isn't it and despite the sea being rough all week it was a pleasure being on that pebble beach, wetting a line. You had some good fish by the sound of it, well done...it does look very fishy, lots of potential. The sardine oil method sounds fascinating, I think I will give that a try myself. Haha indeed, Caster's won't be happy that I caught one of their weed fish, let's hope they see this 🤣. Hope all is good with you, have a nice weekend and take care 👍👍

I was a little surprised that no one else was fishing, although I guess conditions weren't great, it was choppy to say the least! I think the locals tend to wait until the water has cleared a little, it was chocolate brown for the first 50 yards or so. Shame you had to cancel your trip but I think you made the right decision, those winds were a nuisance. Beautiful out there today, let's hope this weather lasts until well into next weekend!

    It's always nice to see you fishing at a new mark but understand there is a cost in doing it. Do you happen to know why the Dogfish get so contorted? The last one you caught with the black spot was curled up like a cat in front of the fire.

The pebble beaches are quite common on the Bristol Channel and this part of Devon where I was fishing, they seem to be less common the further south you go. They curl up and play dead, it's their defence mechanism kicking in but as soon as they're in the water again they swim off fine. Cheers as always, enjoy the weekend 👍👍

      Hi Jed, hope you're well. When I bait up a whole squid, I use a double baiting needle tool. I put the needles through the squid, then apply bait elastic, then I put the hook into position (in and out of the squid), apply more elastic to squid and shank of hook to keep it secure and then slide off the needles. There are lots of different ways of doing it but that's my preferred method as you get a neat bait every time. Cheers 👍👍

I was using 18lb mainline with a 50lb shock leader, although when I'm on the BC I use 20lb main line with a 60lb shock leader, the marks I fish the most tend to be cleanish ground. Not surprised to hear about the trawlers, it needs to be stopped before the seas becoming completely empty, shocking really.
