Live Baiting For Bass At Beachy Head Ledges In The Rain

A short and very wet Bass live bait fishing session here at Beachy heads famous Bass mark 'The Ledges' and a chance for me to practice a method I said I would do more of this year and that is live baiting.
Catching our pout love baits was easy enough and after a quick try on the slow jigs over a wreck we headed to the mark and proceeded to get absolutely soaked but we had fun and caught some lovely Bass in the process.
Thank you for watching and if you have any questions do pop them in the comments for me below the video.

There’s always laughs on my boat mate they’re more important than the fish…Almost 👀😂

I bet your local bass fleet are happy with you advertising where to catch bass ,and this is coming from someone who claims they used to be a commercial fisherman, you need to have some respect for their living and stop advertising where, don't see you telling people where your turbot banks are, I hear 27 boats with commercials from out the area going up there Good one👍 fish don't stand a chance

[@theamputeeangler]

Good morning. So firstly this is beachy head ledges, about as known a mark as there is and was written about in books by John darling decades ago and is absolutely NO secret. Never has been never is. Even if i didn’t mention the mark then having the big lighthouse in the background is abit of a give away regardless. I don’t give any marks away unless it’s quite obvious such as fishing at beachy head or the windfarm here locally other than that I don’t say what wrecks or areas I’m fishing on at all for obvious reasons but for context about this mark and i suspect you’re local anyway BUT a few years ago before I started the channel there was 40 boats on it. It’s no secret. What some of these commercial don’t see is the ones I talk to regularly and give tip off on where I have found Bass or heard fish caught or that I’m bollacking pleasure boats I see or are told about who are driving all over wrecks with no idea or respect for their living and I’m educating pleasure anglers constantly on commercials fishing when they are bashing smaller inshore boats or wanting to rip nets off inshore marks etc Running a channel is never going to be please everyone but I’m a pleasure angler who helps and supports other pleasure anglers and i am sorry if you feel the Bass fleet have been done a disservice but wasn’t my aim and would never give any none obvious mark away and anyone locally is welcome to approach me about it personally.
