Fishing for Sand Eel's from the Pier

[@nigenicholaw5898]

Tip , tie the main top swivel on your main line and unwind the rest this keeps the rig taught and stops it doing what it wants (tanglering)😊

[@blackhawkgaming1362]

Put a weight on the end of the rig before u take it off the cardboard and they should just fall out untangled 👍

[@basilabdulsalam1590]

Good idea. Thanks I have learned something today.

[@mariuszota]

Exactly. There is no totally waste of money. It's about how you use it. :)

[@wazup3333]

video and this comment made me lol

[@davidrussell3890]

in a perfect world

[@phildean8797]

Love that idea

[@davidstorton910]

A trick I use with sabikis is I stick the top loop onto my main line put a weight on the other end and it makes them easy untangle cos dear or cheap they ALL come tangled to some degree

[@leigh161269]

clip the weight on the end with the clip, drop the weight and they will all come off in order and without any tangles. then just tie your main line to the swivel.

[@phildean8797]

Nice vid gary - if you’d have done that this year there’s have been herring as well.

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks Phil. Yeah had a few herring this year they seemed to be everywhere especially in the rivers.

[@phildean8797]

@@fishingintheukgarywood the first year I hardly got to fish and they were everywhere. I still haven’t had one.

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

When they are in fully one of the best places to get them is from the walkway in shields.

[@phildean8797]

@@fishingintheukgarywood a regular haunt of mine when I’m not constantly babysitting. Got to jury’s inn Gateshead last night. Black lugg tipped with hermit and a piece of octopus to keep the hook clear, did the job. Not much over 2lb but still fish. Tight lines gary. Looking forward to the next video.

[@alanrobson5270]

Cheers buddy I'm up mull of Galloway in July I'll give it a try Alan.

[@garysscaryfaeries3046]

Sabikis are a psychological torture device when tangled.

[@kayak1969p]

hi buddy with sabiki fishing do you cast and leave until they bite or is it cast and slow retrieve the best way to catch them buddy . many thanks : karl

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Hi mate, I usually do it both ways I cast and slowly retrieve and also drop it straight down the pier wall near the bottom and jig them straight up and down slowly until I feel a bite.

[@garyshears6825]

Great video Gary! Always enjoy these. 👍

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks Gary.

[@straightpipehai5324]

This video helped me thanks a lot I don’t usually fish in the sea I’m more of a freshwater fisherman and I catch trout but starting to go mackerel fishing

[@cutepets3548]

Solid flick on the nut

[@davidrussell3890]

i dont think i have ever got a rig of saikis off the card without a tangle

[@grahambird7397]

ENJOYED YOUR VIDEO,,CAN YOU TELL ME THE BEST TIME OF YEAR TO TRY THIS.IM A BIT FIRTHER SOUTH AT SCARBOROUGH

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks, late spring and throughout the summer. June, July and August are usually the best months .

[@KukkutiMurunen]

I'd say the mackerel and Pollack would be at them

[@lennicholas484]

What time of year can you catch the sand eels? Great video mate👍

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks mate, they usually turn up from around mid to end of May depending on the weather and sea conditions.

[@martinpaul6146]

I knew a teacher with a flick like that!! Great video

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks Martin.

[@mariedeboever6144]

Strand

[@JP-ic2ze]

That was painful to watch lol. Nothing wrong with them, not waste it's how to take them off. A weight on one end and remove them in order. Most packets show you which side to start with (usually weighted side, but I tend to have more luck with the swivel end).

[@fishingfanaticsuk]

Another good one mate. Went down earlier but decided on sharpley instead on the fly, had 15 or so but lost a tagged fish. 😢

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks Steve, gutted for you mate how much is it up to now?

[@fishingfanaticsuk]

Not sure. Would of been nice t9 land it tho.

[@redyellowpink01]

That's the most unwelcoming "welcome" sign I've ever seen

[@phildean8797]

They’ve shut the pier completely now and made the staff who patrolled it redundant so even less welcoming.

[@trev1reid]

Would you use these for bait for fishing around the northeast. And if so what would you expect to catch with this type of bait

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

I usually keep them for when I’m fishing away, but they can be used around here for bass, cod, flattys, pollock etc

[@johnmcgowan7264]

What weight was the peir weight you used

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

I think it was about 28g.

[@geraldswain3259]

Next time wash the rig off under warm tap at home then leave to dry ,bingo no rust next time you use them.Takes less than 5mins.

[@whitetroutchannel]

i do this aswel with all my sea trout gear ive tobys over 20yr old without a spot of rust on them! i dry them off before i put them in my box on the beach 2

[@davidwoodward7020]

Where did you go to in wales Gary?How did you get on?We stay/fish in Anglesey north wales.It's lovely Island!

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

We went to Holyhead in Anglesey, got on quite well caught some decent fish. One of my favourite places to fish.

[@davidwoodward7020]

@@fishingintheukgarywood Well done,what did you get?I've fished the break water at Holy head but got nothing fishing lug on one and going for squid on lures on another :/ it was only the once though.We stay by moelfre and fish off the rocks there mainly(obviously hols isn't all to do with fishing,but do what we can)aside from mackrel bashing which it's famous for you can catch all kinds from codling to launce,wrasse and herring.This coming holiday season I'm gonna try for gar fish on light tackle,it'll make a change from a 15ft rod and a chucking out a 7oz lead.I'm sure they are there.I've been watching this tonight,he's a cracking fella and fisherman,any questions he certainly answers.check this out.he has a vid on cooking em too! kzbin.info/www/bejne/opfOiKOvf9x4g80

Have you tried the savage gear sand eel?

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

I've tried them but haven't had much luck with them. I've had more luck with the 10cm savagear sandeel slugs.

Gary wood ever tried Llandudno?

[@martinburke9583]

South Wales yr best bet mate, loads ray marks...only one never seen caught within 10 miles of Aberthaw (RIGHT at arse end) is an undulate....even the odd stinger shows up now n then....more then though to be fair, lol

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

I've never been there before but it's on the way to where I'm going next week is it any good?

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Could do with catching some rays might have to have a trip to south Wales some time.

[@alanrobson5270]

Knit one pearl one could of made a string vest with them .what do you do to the sandeel when you get them home . Alan.

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

I wrap them in clingfilm and put them in the freezer.

[@mybookfacetube]

How come you don't have a second rod set up for live bait and put one of those Sandeels on, you never know.

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

I was just collecting them for bait to freeze that time. I tried them as live bait on the float the last time i was on the pier nothing took it that time but I'll try again next time hopefully something big will take it.

[@Jagdpanzer-bh4pb]

Do you catch them all year round?

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Mainly through the summer months.

[@Jagdpanzer-bh4pb]

@@fishingintheukgarywood Iv'e caught a few locally in the summer but cant seem to get past the herring lol

[@Trojwaterman]

Surely there must be some bigger predators there preying on them eels

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Aye there should be but I was mainly just after the sand eels for bait.

[@567tartaruga]

Hi were can i buy a rig like yours ?
