Hi Alan, more than making up for your blanks there mate, those sessions where the fish keep coming are just diamond☺️ good variety of species too. Nothing like the drive home with a big smile on your face after a day like that. Well done buddy👊🏻👍👍

Well done for picking up the rubbish 👍 Unbelievable how people disrespect the environment 😡 Everyone who pays their council tax bill , car park fees has to pay towards cleaning up after these dirty bastards . Time the people who dumped the rubbish get the bill, £ 5,000 fine and their car crushed for littering from a vehicle would be a good start. In a rural area any litter in a 10 mtr area of you is deemed your responsibility even if it’s not yours and your duty to clean it up, failure to do so £5,000 fine car impounded until the bill is paid, £50 a day for the cost of impounding the car. Laws could be passed and the fines would pay for enforcement and it would work . Remember the car seat belt laws being passed and loads of people said they won’t make me wear them , 😄as soon as the fines started rolling out people were quick to change their minds 😄 Government should get tuff on this issue it will save us all money in the end 👍 Could be done and should be done

@fishingat2 ай бұрын
Thanks for watching - At Ferrybridge the bank of shingle is steep , especially going back . Although the walk is short , banks are steep and I find (going back especiially) best to walk diagonally up the bank . Abbotsbury is better in front of the car park as there is a wooden gangway for about 50 yrds and the bank shelves less . Also parking is cheaper . West Bexington is the easiest. Carpark at the beach, you can fish straight in front if quiet and even shallower. Cogden is a killer hill , so would avoid that if unfit - hope that helps . Travel light as well, I'm always guilty of taking too much stuff !!

@@fishingat, yes, I have seen that, it's fairly minor in the scheme of things, compared to fishing on the slippery rocks, but health and safety prevails. I don't think it has any real effect on the spot you were at, except that the access to the beach for the locals is being managed while they build new metal ski resort style steps (they've put some of it in place at the bottom).

I was out again yesterday n managed a whiting, flounders n a dab . But the dab was manky as he'll. Its fins were all tatty n on the topside covered in a horrible green stuff on skin. I've seen them on the norflok coast who I watch on the old tube. But that's the first one I've came access. I had dabs last week n they was top quality. It don't look good any way chief what there eating or living. I call them radioactive dabs now lol. All the best from GRIMSBY

Hi Alan, good to see you back mate, I bet that kept you fit running up and down the bank with all of those fish! Well done buddy👊🏻 nice to see you getting lots of action. I was down Ferrybridge the following morning on a very short 3 hour session before work, couldn’t fish on my days off as had to fix the car. Just 2 eels, one was probably not far off a double, one dog and a pout, no cod so I think you picked the right day😊 I was going to go to Abbotsbury but changed my mind last minute due to the road closure as wasn’t sure where it would be shut so thanks for the heads up. Great vid as always, take care 👍👍

Hi Lincoln, thanks for watching. The diversion took me back towards Weymouth (from portesham) and then down a track , eventually ending up by the Swannery : bit of a mare in the van !! The walk back did me in - over 50 mins and I'm relatively fit. I was glad the fishing action had calmed down a bit after dark and I only fished 2 rods. One day I'll get a decent conger (I hope) that's why we go back !! Hopefully down again soon but weather looks a bit iffy for next week
