Bristol Channel Fishing- Almost Beaten By The Bass

[@ianturner3033]

What a cracking bass. Well done you for sticking with it. 👍👏👌 Shame about the other bass. Lost a good fish years ago, still think about it and what I could have done differently. As you say "that's fishing". Enjoyed the video. Thank you for sharing. Stay safe. 😷

[@thegamblingangler]

It’s not the first and it won’t be the last. Never gets any less painful either!🤦🏼‍♂️😄🎣

[@jamieginge7371]

Another cracking video Jansen and a lovely bass unlucky on the lost one. Look forward to the next one thanks for sharing 👌🏻🤙🏻🎣🎣

[@markfrancis1766]

I know the channel and its spots very well. I love your fishing vids. The throw offs get me at the beginning 😉.. I guess no one likes to give away there favourite marks

[@lloydcollins2963]

A great video well done nice to see bass in the channel thank you

[@thegamblingangler]

Thank you Lloyd🙂🎣

[@nigelmurgatroyd5027]

[@TheAutisticAngler]

Great video, even greater fish, well done

[@gavinworrow4801]

awsome video, cracking bass fella.

[@simawds72]

really enjoyed the video, we all felt your pain when the big one got off. It happens to all of us and it is not very nice!

[@billy10100]

Your videos are always brilliant and I love watching you fishing our local marks:)

[@christravis3270]

When the one that got away hit the rod, gave me shivers 👍🏻 Brilliant fish, even the eel. Awesome video buddy, beautifully shot and as always a great informative commentary. The latter being so good, I was easily able to take my eyes off the video and still appreciate what was happening with the weather, the sea state, your movement, brilliant.

[@thegamblingangler]

Thank you Chris, very kind🙂🎣

[@scotlandforagingandfishing]

Fantastic session, well done. I know the pain when the big one gets away, especially painful when you actually see the fish.

Nice video mate, lovely session, shame you lost the biggie but you got a beaut anyways. So lucky to have the B Channel as a venue to fish.

[@thegamblingangler]

Thanks David. And you’re right, I am very lucky😊🎣

[@huntingandfishingsouthwest8438]

love the video ..many fond memory's of fishing these marks for cod and bass gutting to loose one but always nice to pick one up in the end i lost a big bass at lower light one night which was sole destroying but i popped back the night after and landed one at 9lb 12oz so i was more than happy

[@gregd8880]

Great video - really helpful how you explain throughout

[@thegamblingangler]

Thanks Greg, glad you found it useful🙂🎣

[@carldawson832]

Hi jansen you ok . Your right about weather , last week on the humber we had north eaterlis . Sun out but that biting cold wind was straight in your kisser. I managed a small codling to save the blank. Pleased you landed that prime bar ov silva after dropping the other one. Looks great fun on lite gear i think i mite invest in some. Love your films all the best matey from grimsby.

[@thegamblingangler]

Thanks Jonny🙂🎣

[@kevingulliford4658]

Excellent video and good angling. The older I get the more I tend to think, it's better to have fought and lost than never to have fought at all! At least you know you are doing something right.

[@thegamblingangler]

Thanks Kevin. I’d kind of agree, but it still makes you curse at the time!😁🎣

[@allenbrown8158]

Another great video Jansen. Tough luck on the one that got away but hopefully it's on its way over to us on the other side of the channel. Gutted about not being able to get our session in but with any luck I'll be back and at it before not too long. Stay safe mate.

[@thegamblingangler]

[@thegamblingangler]

Thanks!🙂🎣

[@daverichards6557]

What a great way to spend ten minutes. I almost felt I was there, the bass that you caught was a tank as well! The one that got away will come back your way, I’m sure! Look forward to the next Bass outing Jansen.

[@thegamblingangler]

Thanks very much, Dave. If you almost felt like you were there, that’s what it’s all about!🙂🎣

[@stephenwilkinson4214]

I was gutted for you when you lost that fish and was made up for you when you got another cracking fish well deserved ... really enjoying your videos and learning a lot from them to 👍

[@chrischambers5466]

I back you on that, lost a nice big ray 2 weeks ago, 10 mins pulling it through the tide then it flashed a wing at me, flipped and was away😱.......gutted

Great Bass in the end Jansen. Shame about the one that got away, it put a real bend in the rod when it took the bait. Enjoying your channel. Keep up the good work mate.👍

What a stunning fish Out of interest do you ever use frozen peeler and get good results ?

[@guitarboy1965]

I love these videos but I'd love e to know where exactly you're fishing from as I hate wasting time trying to find places to fish as I come from the otherside of Bristol and don't have time to wander the coastline.

[@thegamblingangler]

Glad you enjoy the content. I never say where I fish for numerous reasons, but with a little detective work you should be able to find out. Bass can be caught from literally any mark in the Bristol Channel and it’s just a case of putting the hours in when conditions are right. I run a guided shore fishing service if that is of interest to you. Exploring marks can be trial and error and there’s been times in the past where I’ve made 300 mile round trips just to do that🙂

Top top my friend 👍👍👍👍👍

[@malmuller5867]

[@malmuller5867]

@@thegamblingangler Thanks for your reply, obviously there is no relevance but it would be good to know where you are fishing as " the Bristol Chanel " covers a large area. Thanks.

[@Dboy_2901]

What tides and times do you recommend fishing the south side of sand point? Live your vids btw

[@terrr954]

Do you ever use big mackerel baits on the bass to target the bigger fish ?

[@thegamblingangler]

Usually only in the clearer water found down channel. It is not as productive as crab, but squid can be effective at times🎣🙂

[@Saifounify]

nice video mate the bass do you catching him with squid bait ?
