Fishing for Big Cod from the beach | TAFishing

Winter beach fishing is one of the best times to catch Monster Cod. Using big baits such as lugworm and squid and casting out far with a pulley rig, can be a deadly for catching cod. Graeme visits the famous Chesil Beach on the south coast of England. One of the top beach fishing spots in the UK. It can be hard to locate fish on such a huge long beach, but Graeme uses the expertise of beach fisherman Steve Perry, who shares his knowledge with The Awesome Army to give you guys some great tips on winter beach fishing. We hope you enjoy the video.

I mind this video coming out I cannot believe its been 8 years, it got me hooked on the cod fishing up here on the east coast of Scotland

[@ardinn]

Steve seems full of knowledge and tips, and is very good on cam - Get fishing more with that guy - great video - Currently in Cod mode myself, running out of time though for the bigguns

[@purpleturkey1792]

Like you said .... Doesn't matter what it's cost, as long as you enjoy yourself 🐟

[@jimquantic]

Like most people in the states, I think of cod as a boat caught fish, drifting over VERY deep water, a dropper rig of some type. thanks for this, really fun and informative. Tight lines.

[@dbarbz2089]

Yes! Always look forward to your beach fishing episodes Cheers from New Zealand

[@beowulf5982]

What a show, loved it! Thank you for sharing.

[@davidpayne1161]

Thanks for your usual brilliant video I really liked this one nice to see good fishermen cashing good fish nice cod, now have tried the up and over pulley rig instead of my normal pulley penal rig with some very good results. Thanks Graeme and keep going.

[@deplorabled1695]

Mouth is watering just looking at that cod. I've eaten fish from all over the world. Nothing beats Canadian/Alaskan Salmon and North Sea Cod - best eating fish in the world.

[@davidharvey5672]

thanks guys, thoroughly enjoyed every minute

[@damianjones6767]

such a shame there is not a dedicated sea fishing series on tv , which strictly focus on the Uk shore line

[@louisroberts832]

I know right, there’s hardly anything in our waters.. apart from dogs, rays and congas

was down there 2 weeks ago, watching the fishing on Chesil Beach. God how I love it down there. Thinking about moving to Portland

[@marksallai2289]

me too thinking move to Portland one day

[@commandermonnk8802]

I love cod it tastes so good

[@sicoleman1952]

that's why there is hardly any cod about in uk waters this year,cod ban is what's needed

[@reynaldobalisi9008]

Watching videos,fish on

[@simon40607]

Lovely brace of cod

[@LightYerPipe]

I know this is old but i would have said Steve may have found an area of black Lug. Black Lug as you probably know they are usually deeper than Blow Lug. I think i'm slowly getting through all your Films Graeme. Keep the great work that you do, i look forward to Friday's.

[@colinchaplin]

Thank you for fishing my favourite Beach, excellent video some great tips, nice fish as always at TAF.

[@markpeskey2375]

Mark and cod is good 👍 🇬🇧

[@Chrisking85]

really enjoyed this video and it's making me think about selling me carp gear and getting right into sea fishing

[@campfish5643]

Fished Chesil last winter - Portland end , long drive for two eels lol what part were you fishing and what month I'm planning to go back soon hopefully for some cod this time.

[@ProFishermanJones]

Amazing video! This would be a nice change from muskie we catch in Ontario :)

[@TheFishingExperiment]

Yeah that would be for sure. Ice fishing season is coming up though. Maybe time for some Lake trout

[@fishingmad6593]

I like the bit where Nathan said I got these rods because I saw the fish Steve had caught on his. LOL. Not really down to the rod is it!!!!.

[@nafy118]

+fishing mad Hi fishing mad, in all fairness I didn't make myself very clear on camera (first time and nervous etc lol) i meant it in the way that i had seen the size of fish that steve had caught and how well the rods handled them and from the vast variety of venues we fish :). fully aware the majority of it is steves skill as an angler and not the rod :). thanks for watching and the comment, will hopefully help me in future videos :)

[@SmokeSolo1975]

Nothing wrong with leeda m sport powers. A third of the price of your century rods, but just as capable. M sport powers have landed 150lb shore caught skate.

I like pollock tastes good.... great video

[@chuckymcchuckface8768]

Graeme cant wait to see clips like this when this pandemic as passed over,im sick of seeing people doing foraging videos they are getting boring now,we need some real footage like this

[@derekjefferson1324]

great video, always, enjoy the beach videos - more please. Steve & Natham were good on camera and very informative, you could do more videos with these guys many thanks for your efforts and time

@@tennyson23 the line might catch on it casting so fray or snap the line.

[@welshj]

can i come fishing with you please i love the show i been carp fishing for about 2 years now and the biggest iv caught is 15 pounds and i would like to catch a bigger one your show help alot just like to say thank you for the show really does help

[@jimquantic]

I really like circle hooks, for the simple reason that if a fish is short, or you have two many and wish to release, they always are in the corner of the mouth. Another thing, with circle hooks, if you use a sand spike for the rod, they hook themselves, so you don't need to "be ready" every moment you are there. Cast out, put in spike, then you can play with your dog, your kids and when the rod goes off, it is hooked well for keeping, and easy release if you want/need to let one go.

[@konasteph]

The Brits are the only ones with some common sense left: if its got some size, and if its tasty....put it in the bag take it home and.....eat it!

[@jonyjonsy]

What do other people do?

[@konasteph]

@@jonyjonsy they let them go ( I do SOMETIMES) but you know its natural to be taking from nature to EAT (you respect creation, the creature and the environment) but after you think of all that, you still EAT, right???

[@scrounger-h8i]

@@konasteph not much cod left mate. And that's certainly as a result of a lot of people lacking common sense. Recognise who they are? I thought so...

[@simonhopkins3867]

crikey where did you park your car? half am hours walk on the shingle is no laughing matter! pmsl lol haha ;-)

[@southerner4566]

Half an hour isn't considered a long walk on Chesil, One of my favourite marks there takes an hour to reach, Longer some times.

Where bouts is the shop where u got blowlug from is it far from beach what's the postcode

[@davidstorton910]

NICE to see you on Chesil beach Graeme, it's got be the top beach venue in Britain. There is always a chance of catching any fish you can find in British waters but boy aint it BLOODY hard work to get on and off of. I live in weymouth and fish it only in the summer, I normally fish Preston beach in winter. Thanks for another great video sir

[@84BigAl]

Hi there,,chief in the black hoody, like the rig, only into my 3rd year of fishing ,, would it be daft to add a rotten bottom to that rig do you think? as i fish filey brigg in yorkshire, quite heavy ground , i like the long flowing trace idea, thanks in advance

[@ericdunwoody6036]

Alec Tindal is

[@Rev-me6ml]

Hi Alec, rotten bottom is fine for rough ground. My personal opinion is that the long flowing trace would possibly get ripped apart on the rocks if any, your better off keeping it short and sweet!!!

[@nfssceptic6405]

I caught a mackerel on lug worm there

[@mujahidali9818]

what was concept of free hook in the rig ???

Anyone know which part of Chesil Beach this is???

[@blarabkom5225]

Great video! I would like to start fishing again here in UK, I have been fishing for a quite a bit in Spain. so what it the distance you can set your rod from the other fishers without making them feel like you've invided their space?

[@TAFishing]

No rules.About thirty yards minimum would be polite I guess

[@mattgosling6757]

thankyou for taking all the time and effort to make these vids,i not been sea fishing since i was a kid,but after watching all your films i really keen to buy a couple of beach set ups and get out there,i live in leeds,do you know what we get on the yorkshire coast?any hounds or rays?or will i need to take a long drive,i recently worked in christchurch and eastbourne and its like a 5 hour drive from me so dont wanna trail down south coast too often as i dont have the time.

were u fishing near Codgen Graeme?

[@boagrious5190]

Mono or Braid guys?

I caught more fish and bigger ones on my £25 power stick,,than I did on my £200 century,,Ive had my power stick for 5 years now,and its had a battering,only now the eye on the top is starting to go,,and I’ve pulled in some big fish with it,

[@Wes1988]

What kinda bait was that again

[@13rickyboi]

Hi mate I'm thinking of going to chesil beach fishing is there anywhere near chesil you can pump lug

[@TAFishing]

ask the local tackle shop in Weymouth.

[@ClashixTV]

hey Gaeme, i want to go sea fishing near wales soon and do some catch & cook, i was wondering how the whole fish and parasites thing works? like how do you know where fish contain parasites? and if they do, what do you do about it? put the fish on ice so it kills the parasites? or is it not something to worry of throughout the uk? thanks. :)

[@TAFishing]

I have no idea.I just eat fish and have never seen many parasites.Cooking properly must be the key.Check on the internet.There might be a site that can give you the information.

[@ClashixTV]

oh ok, thanks :D

[@ClashixTV]

yeah, i think the cooking process kills the parasites and it's only for sushi reasons you need to worry. thanks for the reply though! :) stay awesome

[@SmokeSolo1975]

No need for 500 quid plus rods. I paid 100 quid for a ron thompson axe and its just as powerful as the century's. Usually ur spot on with ur advice graham but u do not need to be spending silly money on tackle to launch big baits a long way.

[@sicoleman1952]

rt axe is a good rod for the money but the bite detection is rubbish

[@masonbillington2641]

anyone would be chuffed with that first cod we saw off the british coast line in the morning im off fishishing a trout still water in maldon essex wish me luck

[@gerrabath]

The Cod rig described at 10:20 he says he's using 100lb on the main but doesn't say what's on the trace/hook link. Is that 100lb as well?

[@nafy118]

+gerrabath Hi gerrabath, i believe he was using 30 or 40lb amnesia on this occasion
