Awesome Winter Pollack Fishing - Port Logan - South West Scotland - Kayak Sea Fishing UK

[@pipsav4354]

Hi chris great fishing watch your vid you even had the wildlife watching you 2010-2033 he must have enjoyed it too he he 😂😂

[@onthedropfishing]

Yeah I saw him, he became very interested once the bigger ones started coming out! 👍🎣

[@elkayakfish]

What a lovely day. South west Scotland has some lovely bars. The gold and sometimes silver type 🎉

[@onthedropfishing]

It was a lush day, lovely little weather window. I’m yet to crack the silver bars around there but I’ve got some ideas for next year! Tight lines 👍🎣

[@adztaylor2277]

You certainly found a good spot there Chris, especially so late in the season. Like you say, if the water temp stays up the fish hang around. Cracking Pollock. Always good on the lighter set-up. All the best bud and thanks as usual for taking us along. Tight Lines.

[@onthedropfishing]

Yes I don’t normally fish that spot so it’s another mark for the list. Some nice chunks in the mix later on as well. Glad you’re enjoying the content, tight lines mate 👍🎣

[@scottmckean4611]

Well done bud..Nice days fishing especially at the end of the video u got into some bigger pollock well done must have made the trip more worthwhile..Well done and tight lines 👍

[@onthedropfishing]

It was certainly worth the drive, some nice chunky monkeys there towards the end. Cheers 👍🎣

[@Jafmanz]

great to see this. I go there with my children spinning and exploring had a bass there early this year off the point. Keep dreaming about getting a kayak. Seeing this has settled my mind. I'm getting a double then the kids can take turns coming out with me. cheers.

[@onthedropfishing]

I’m glad you enjoyed the video mate, it’s one of my favourites Port Logan - I’ll be back there soon fingers crossed! 👍🎣

[@seriousseafishing1090]

[@onthedropfishing]

Thanks very much I’m glad you’re enjoying the content. It was a cracking day weather wise as well. I’m always excited to get out and catch a few. Tight lines mate 👍🎣

[@mickhardstaff6605]

Absolutely fantastic session and a beautiful day, thank you for sharing with us , I must admit I would have taken three of those home,😎👍

[@onthedropfishing]

Cheers Mick I’m glad you enjoyed the vid. It was a canny day out and those three will be even bigger next time I catch them 😊🎣🎣

[@mgaleoutdoors]

Nice to see mr Seal in the background .. you had some monsters on this trip 😊

[@onthedropfishing]

The seals are my biggest fans, follow me everywhere! 🤣🎣

[@funnysods]

That's one of them days that you don't want to end. Even when you know it's time to go......"one last cast then I'll get going!" Laughed me head off when you hooked that last one. Excellent video, keep 'em coming.

[@onthedropfishing]

Thanks very much William, yeah on that last cast I was literally heading in! It was a cracking day. I’m glad you enjoyed the vid 👍🎣

[@justinwilliams5134]

Looked like a cracking day, with some good fish. Just purchased a kayak myself, hoping delivery will be tomorrow. Chomping at the bit to get out, albeit at the wrong end of the year for it. Keep up the good work, nice to see the channel growing.

[@onthedropfishing]

Thanks very much Justin, I’m glad you enjoyed it. Happy new kayak! Don’t forget to ask Santa for all the safety kit 😊 Tight lines mate 👍🎣

[@robbysearle]

Chris, that was another great video. Made me laugh all the way, especially with your Pollack juggling skills. Well done with topping the 4K. Keep em coming and tight lines, Rob🎣😉

[@onthedropfishing]

Cheers Rob, I’m an ace pollack juggler and not too shabby with the wrasse either! Glad you enjoyed the video mate 👍🎣

Pollack are my favourite fish, I’m glad you enjoyed the vid 👍🎣

[@andymarshall6056]

Well Chris , yet another great video, and what a superb fishing trip it was, great stamp of golden pollack! Well done and also well done for 4000+ subs, you deserve it. Looking forward to your next trip all ready.

Lucky enough to live there, some amazing fishing if you know where to go, great Vid!

[@onthedropfishing]

Lucky indeed Geoff, even with my limited knowledge of the area I’ve had some cracking days there. If you’ve any suggestions of other launches or marks around and abouts they’d be gratefully received. Tight lines mate 👍🎣

20mins and 10sec in something popped its head out to say hi great video buddy 👍🎣🎣🎣

[@onthedropfishing]

Thanks very much I’m glad you enjoyed it. I think it would most likely have been my pal the seal. He took a keen interest when the fish started coming in! 👍🎣

[@ShopiaRose]

Do ya get many haddock on your travels . Awesome looking fish. An very tastie grub indeed. 🤘

[@onthedropfishing]

We used to get them on the north east coast when I was a kid but the grounds have been fished out now. Have to go north or north west for them now.

Well done for another great video. Cheerful catching and appreciation of the fish, lovely sea and amazing scenery as well as great fish. What's not to like! Best wishes, Kev

[@onthedropfishing]

It was a great trip Kev, the weather the day before and the day after was horrific! But on the actual day it was lovely and mild 👍🎣

Another great video!!! thanks for taking the time to make them for us I know how much work goes into the editing and stuff that alone filming the content

[@onthedropfishing]

Thanks very much, it was a cracking day and thanks for your nice words, it’s a faff recording separate audio and going through 8 hours of footage and a day or two editing for 25mins but I enjoy the end result and I’m glad you do as well 😊🎣

Great days fishing Chris with some excellent Pollock, love to hear the drag going. Those bigger fish following one after another, magic. What would you guestimate the best ones weight at.... Tight lines may. Arthur.

[@onthedropfishing]

Hiya mate, it was a fab day on the water, I don’t normally give a weight because…well the internet! 🤣 but I reckon the biggest was about 6lb. Tight lines matey 👍🎣

[@angusmacarthur8375]

Hi Chris, it’s a bit of a drive for you to get to port Logan and I understand you now have a camper van, I’m curious to learn about the camping situation you use, only if you would share it.

[@onthedropfishing]

Hi Angus mate, I sometimes stay at Sands of Luce Holliday Park and Sometimes at Ardwell. I also like to park up in the Forrest of Galloway country park and drive down the next day. 👍🎣

[@Icedmorgans]

Great video . Just subbed👍

[@onthedropfishing]

Thanks very much Paul, I’m glad you enjoyed it. I’ll be back over there soon with a bit of luck 👍🎣

[@iainfraser691]

Fantastic trip yet again! Can you tell me if you were to recommend a kayak between the sturgeon fx or the supernova, which one would it be and why? Thank you in advance as am looking to buy my first fishing kayak. Cheers!

[@onthedropfishing]

Hi mate, they’re both very good kayaks and both very stable. The Supernova is quite a bit heavier than the Sturgeon though, so I’d maybe suggest the sturgeon as a first kayak as it’s lighter and easier to car top etc. Hope that helps 👍🎣

[@MartinCarr1]

Just noticed the seal 100m away that popped up to see who was catching his dinner

[@onthedropfishing]

I’m a seal magnet me! 🧲 🤣

[@RhysFishes]

Great Video Chris! What's the brand of that tackle box you've mounted left to you?

[@onthedropfishing]

Thanks very much, I’m glad you enjoyed it. The tackle box is a home made job. It’s just a cheap toolbox from BnM. Cost about seven quid I think! 👍🎣

[@Mega3dmad]

Great session 👏 its been a while 🎣🎣

[@onthedropfishing]

Yeah the winds been a pain, out again tomorrow though in South East Scotland 👍🎣

[@CiaranGallagher77]

Another cracking video, do you keep much or is it all C&R for pleasure

[@onthedropfishing]

Thanks very much I’m glad you enjoyed it. It’s pretty much all catch and release though if one doesn’t make it it gets munched 😊 👍🎣

[@NeilThackwray]

Just subscribed mate. I know that area well . Shore fish there regular. Be interested if you fished near Port William as we have a caravan there . Tight lines.

[@onthedropfishing]

Thanks for the sub mate I really appreciate it. Is there somewhere to launch at Port William? I’ve driven past there loads but never been 👍🎣

[@NeilThackwray]

@@onthedropfishing Yes mate, easy launch at Second sands as you come into the village from the North side. Park beside the slip. Onto sand 👍

[@onthedropfishing]

I’ve been there! I’ve just remembered I had a drive down on my way back in the summer. It did look an easy launch! Parking right next to it as well 👍

[@NeilThackwray]

I spend more time there than Consett these days. Water is shallow mixed ground. Our caravan is at West Barr literally a few yards from the sea. I fish from the shore and last week in between storms the area still threw up good mixed bags.

[@neilson90TooTents]

Once again another great video, loving those pollacks, what are they like to eat?

[@onthedropfishing]

Hi mate, I’m glad you enjoyed the video. They’re not the same as the pollock with an O that you get in tescos but my understanding is they’re canny tasty. I’ve never munched a pollack myself. Love a bit of cod though 👍🎣

[@CHESHfishing]

Hi Chris! I'm new to your channel and loving your content. The video quality is excellent.. can I ask what you are using?

[@onthedropfishing]

Hi Chris, I’m glad you’re enjoying the content mate- I’m using GoPros for all my filming on the kayak 👍🎣

[@James-em9zz]

Hi Chris, Love the channel, vids are great, can you tell what type of PFD that you use, and is it self righting many thanks Jim

[@onthedropfishing]

Thanks James, glad you’re enjoying the content. It’s an NRS Chinook OS Fishing. A bit of a mouthful but very good. Regards self righting PFDs aren’t the same as life jackets, They’re made to aid you in rescuing yourself rather than keep you afloat if you’re unconscious etc lifejackets do do that which is why they’re self righting. Hope that helps 👍🎣

[@ericfishingman373]

how does the motor compare nova motor

[@onthedropfishing]

Hi mate, so far so good for the sturgeon. Can’t really compare them if I’m honest as the Supernova is so much bigger and heavier than the sturgeon, This one though was great at port Logan and I’m out again in the morning so it’ll get another good run out. 👍🎣

[@fishingstevie8830]

Being a Scot now living in North East of England thats some nice Scottish fish bud ...Can i ask what is it you spray on the lures ? I also had a laugh @ > Ger in > And also when you put the fish back > see u later pal 🤣 Good video .

[@onthedropfishing]

Hi Stevie, I’m glad you enjoyed the video. The spray is sticky baits bait spray. Not sure it makes that much difference to be honest with you but it’s certainly cant gonna do any harm! Tight lines mate 👍🎣

[@daviegilmour4593]

Hi chris i stay up queensferry around forth bridges area we have a boat you think any pollock up around the island under the rail bridge very deep water cheers davy

[@onthedropfishing]

Hi Davy mate, quick look on Navionics and the relief shading looks great around that island. I’d look for the rougher ground around 20-25 metre mark to the east as the island continues under water. Is it an easy launch from Queensferry? 👍🎣

[@stephendouglas-cr1mk]

Hi Chris can you recommend a good fish finder for a 14ft boat I've just bought? Love your fishing videos BTW. Thank you.

Personal choice for me is the Sturgeon FX. I have and do love the Supernova but it’s a fair bit heavier than the sturgeon so I tend to use that more 👍🎣
