Float Fishing from the Pier

[@phildean8797]

Great to see shields pier on these vids. The kit kat shop has a supply of baits and terminal tackle for those who run out, just a five minute walk on ocean rd from the bottom of the pier.

Thanks for the info good to know 👍

[@johoxjxhxh2176]

Nice one, heading down again tomorrow for Macky bashing and maybes a bit of cod

[@colmlynders]

After watching this last night went to tackle shop today picked up a float kit or two and boom 4lb bass 1st fish on a float in the sea, nice one mate for the tips

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Excellent glad the video inspired you to have a go at float fishing. Well done on the bass mate.

[@maximusmeridius1240]

That looks a great place to fish

[@jasonrenshaw9010]

Can i ask a dumb question please? I am going to Brixham in a few weeks and will be taking a telescopic carp rod and some sea floats. What baits can i use if i can’t get the likes of lugs / mackerel etc? Is there any “off the shelf” baits you could suggest please? Thanks.

[@SOMERSETBEACHFISHINGtony]

hi jason , take some spinners with you mate loads of mackerel down there at the moment chap, a couple of good tackle shops there too .if no luck go to the local coop and get some frozen prawns give them a go

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

If you can't get mackerel from the bait shop you can use the mackerel from the supermarket if they have any, you could also use prawns and mussels.

[@georgeohwell8481]

Looks like a good spot there man

[@roymichaeldeanable]

Looks very quiet around there....nice Summer evening

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Yeah it was a lovely night to be out. Most people were fishing on the end I only went halfway up.

[@johoxjxhxh2176]

Went today, didn’t catch a single thing compare to yesterday when I had like 10 mackerel and 2 coalie

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

They should be back if the weather stays settled.

[@peculiarcrab5388]

I seen you there today

[@michaelcook9498]

Hey do you have any good advice for mackerel fishing with feathers?

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Hi try casting in all different directions and fish at different depths until you find them.

[@smaragadine]

Look for the boil, that’s mackerel hunting. That’s where you want to cast to.

[@noelduggan72]

Yes, look out for people walking behind you, BEFORE you cast out! Tight Lines!

[@antonbarlow2854]

good vid gary shame about your rod tip mate stay safe mate tight lines.

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks anton 👍 I've fixed it with a bit glue stick until i get an eye for it lol tight lines mate.

[@MrMojorizin]

Have the mackie gone away as we're in before?

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

I think the rough weather put them off but I think they are back now.

[@CLOGHER2110]

Great video as always!!! How long is that bloody pier???

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks mate. Its one mile long.

[@SOMERSETBEACHFISHINGtony]

another great video mate shame about the lightening tho

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks mate. I had been looking forward to staying most of the night but never mind there's always the next time.

[@davecharlesworth8176]

Great video, shame about the storm. What floats do you use for night fishing or is it end of session when you cannot see your float anymore, there must be away to float throughout the night, regards

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks Dave, I usually just end the session when I cant see the float anymore but I think you can buy floats with lights on or you can just tape a rod tip light to the float if you wanted to night float fish.

[@chrisg8325]

Whats your thoughts on glow beads mate?

[@FishingFrustrationsUK]

[@suffolkngood]

First view, twice in two vids !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@andrewrobson5790]

What was the depth of your float set at ?...

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

I set it at different depths as the tide comes in and goes out i usually start by setting it at 6 foot then adjust it as needed.

[@jimooky7113]

Theres no one there?

[@TheAutisticAngler]

Good choice to leave, least you can fish another day, doesn't do good to mess with nature.

[@fishingintheukgarywood]

Thanks. Yeah there's always another day to fish.

[@ascot1049]
