Bandits at Brighton - The Plaice To Be!!! (Over 35 Plaice Caught)

A long trip to the south coast for the boys to hunt out some plaice. What a trip it turned out to be! Watch as we fish the Banjo Groyne at Brighton beach and pull out more than a few fish.

Fair play boys quality video as always 👏

[@BanditFishingUK]

Thanks for watching as always mate

[@kerryfoster1]

Welcome to Brighton - my local area! This year I shall be going for a few plaice with some experimental baits - Already caught 2 (accidentally) so there's plenty about. Not even the season yet! Will be reporting at a later date. You would hardly believe it but the sand used to start at the round bit of the 'Banjo' groyne . As a schoolboy we fished off it at night! 1970ish😆

[@steveforster3420]

Lovely video with some cracking fish...imagine some of them were plump fish 🐟 😀 two for the table would have been sweet 😋...Nice to see another video guys very chilled and simple fishing,hope to see some gower marks on here through the summer as that will get alot of views👍 😁

[@BanditFishingUK]

We like to keep it simple and concentrate on being in the right places for the right tides and with quality baits. Sea fishing doesn’t need to be complicated. We’d love to get a few gower sessions in this year. Let’s see what the future brings 👍🏼

[@peterayres3614]

Well done on an excellent video guys. If I'd known you were coming down I would of popped along and had a fish.

[@BanditFishingUK]

Thanks Peter!

[@williameddy3521]

Thanks you guys i was out the other night for a night fish and using your set up i bagged a 2 lbs sea bass

[@BanditFishingUK]

That’s what it’s all about!

[@scottharriswestwalesfishin639]

Beast of a session well worth the trip nice one lads

[@BanditFishingUK]

Cheers Scott

[@cpfcgavman1977]

I'm a huge fan of the channel and live down south so Brighton is local to me however I'll probably wait a few more weeks to get down there until the plaice have plumped up a bit Also I'm in Wales first week in April for a family holiday in trecco bay so I'll definitely be dusting off the gear for a few sessions around there Thanks again loved it

[@BanditFishingUK]

Thanks for watching, they were very thin you can see the big fish Phil had was as flat as a pancake. Good luck on your trip hope you get a few out

[@tattoo831]

Good video lads nice one

[@BanditFishingUK]

Thanks for watching as ever Peter!

[@robertjones-yo4ql]

EXCELLENT

[@BanditFishingUK]

Thanks Robert!

[@micheal3586]

Well done lads .. Great video .gutted I missed meeting you down there . Any more plans for another trip? Also always wondered where you park so cheers for showing that 👍

[@BanditFishingUK]

Yes it’s a shame you couldn’t make it pal. We should be able to make a few trips along the south coast this year so hopefully we’ll all meet up soon 👍🏼

[@FishHunterUK]

Banger of a vid boys gutted I couldn't be there that day

[@BanditFishingUK]

It’s a shame you missed it. Lovely session. Cheers mate 👍🏼

[@jimboultonafc]

hi great vid just found your channel so subbed of course, good to see you using power gum stop knots. iv'e never liked the idea of crimps on nylon and it makes the rig much more versatile, also you can use mono for stop knots at a push. tight lines

[@BanditFishingUK]

Like we said, we know a few anglers who have used it for a long time. Doesn’t damage the line like a crimp and the adjustment is very handy. The only downside so far is the time it takes to tie a rig compared to crimping. But I think it’s worth it. Cheers!

[@benbeal6488]

That imax bib+brace looks nice Lloyd 😉

[@BanditFishingUK]

Thanks buddy, Nice and warm. Best shop worker sorted me out 👍👍

[@andyscoey3593]

Another good video and great info. It is a shame the fish didnt have more weight on them. A question for you about the Shock leader. I see that you use a leader with very little stretch in it. Would you pass on the make of that line for me please, Even a pretty please if that would help. I am a Multi man and dont want to go down the fixed spool route and Braid. Cheers and beers to both of you.. Andy

[@BanditFishingUK]

My choice of shockleader is rovex 10x generally in 80lb but the stock is slowly running out. I don’t know what to go to next!

[@deanbooker3314]

Nice video ladies

[@BanditFishingUK]

Cheers Dean 😂

[@leetaylor759]

Nice session I heard there’s a few bandits in Brighton already

[@BanditFishingUK]

We won’t go there 😂. Cheers Lee!

[@CJB-]

Circle hooks work well with flatys, most deep hooked don't survive

[@vdavis8766]

Hi what reel are you using and size .great vid

[@RobertSmith-jh2gh]

Great stuff boys, could i just ask how far u were casting to catch them? Great vid !

[@BanditFishingUK]

Thanks Robert. We were casting as far as possible which was consistently over 100 yards on this day

[@florinaureldimian2304]

Very nice session. And very nice fishermans. On which day you got that laky?

[@BanditFishingUK]

We fished there on the 3rd of March. Thank you for watching

[@hrtbrkkid7299]

Have you heard of the powerdolphin by powervision? serious piece of kit. Nice catch

[@BanditFishingUK]

We haven’t heard of that but we’ll be looking in to it that’s for sure. Thanks for watching

[@596football]

Great session lads, what conti rod are you using?

[@BanditFishingUK]

Colmic Primaira NX GEN in a 4.6 metre is Lloyd’s choice of rod in this video 👍🏼

[@kevinbuckler1085]

What a cracking trip,well worth your effort.Fair play on putting them all back. Not sure if I missed it, but what hooks did you use and did you need grip weights at all 🎣🐟

[@BanditFishingUK]

To be honest we were hoping to keep one or two each because they are so nice to eat. But with them being so thin at the moment it makes sense to give them a chance and hope we get a few plump ones in the summer and autumn. Phil used Varivas Saltwater Champions in a size 3 and I believe Lloyd used size 2 Sakuma Mantas. Phil tried a gripper for a few casts when the tide was dragging him too far towards others but the flat lead was more productive. Thank you for watching Kevin 🎣

[@kevinbuckler1085]

@@BanditFishingUK Thanks for your reply,I must admit I’ve found it makes a difference if you can use a plain one 🐟🎣

[@BanditFishingUK]

It might be the movement that attracts them or it may be the fact it simply covers more water. But they certainly liked the moving baits 👍🏼

[@nicolastubborn2355]

Think you guys are catching all the fish before they head north

[@BanditFishingUK]

There are plenty left out there!

[@scottkenny7661]

Top video 👍🏻 what time of the year can you catch plaice?

[@BanditFishingUK]

Hi Scott, no expert but I believe they’re early in the year at Brighton, catching in Jan feb and march. But also heard they’re about all summer but maybe in smaller numbers. Chesil have a run of fish in April and may and then again in late summer/autumn

[@scottkenny7661]

@@BanditFishingUK i fancy a bit of that, thank you for the reply,appreciate it 👍🏻

[@martingourd7615]

Great video. What continental rod are you using?

[@BanditFishingUK]

Hi Martin, it’s a Colmic Primaira NXGen

[@martingourd7615]

Is there an equivalent you would recommend as unfortunately I can’t find that rod available anymore?

[@Wayne-ks9gd]

Hi fellas, what month was this please ?

Hi Wayne. This was 3rd March 2022 to be exact. Good luck if you get out 👍🏼🎣

[@nicolastubborn2355]

Beads and bling catch anglers try fishing with beads and no bait

[@BanditFishingUK]

Agree and disagree on this, I think sometimes beads/attractors can make a massive difference. The same applies for leads. Strangely enough I didn’t catch a fish whilst using pink leads but had everything on a green one. Same for the beads. 1 fish to pink, lots to green and black. Thanks for watching 🎣🎣

[@l.r.sfishing4011]

Great video lads. And some top class fishing and that big old fish was something els. Well in. Tight lines 🎣🎣🎣

[@BanditFishingUK]

Cheers mate! It was a beautiful fish indeed
