Lobster potting on the Cardigan Bay Coble in Wales

[@anotherangleUK]

Looks a really good hull. These little boats based on traditional lines do exactly what they should.

[@C3BFA]

Definitely it's a great sea boat ans handles it great also very stable for a small boat

[@johnevans4516]

Good to see your out again.

[@C3BFA]

Thank you John

[@clarkson7777]

Nice to see you out again Dave. Hopefully a lot more fishing especially Tope

[@C3BFA]

Thanks brian. I still haven't used those rigs I can't wait to test them

[@thomashill979]

She handled that sloppy sea well Dave.

[@C3BFA]

She did Thomas I was impressed myself. I wouldn't push it much more than that tho it wasn't enjoyable

[@Nicknofish]

Always wanted a cobble. Proper boat. Cheers and tight lines.

[@C3BFA]

Thanks nick. If you ever get the chance get one it's a great little boat and very easy to launch. Was good chatting to you on smashes live was nice to meet you virtually lol

[@Nicknofish]

@C3BFA thanks for the reply. Past my sell by date now but had great times in my 15-foot dinghy fishing the Bristol Channel. Cheers and tight lines.

[@C3BFA]

@@Nicknofish thats no problem at all. I very rarely miss comments. That is a, shame. I have fished the Bristol channel a few times now there's vidios on the channel had some amazing days

[@Nicknofish]

@C3BFA cheers. Tide and time wait for no man as they say. Tight lines.

[@C3BFA]

@@Nicknofish thats very true. I am trying my best to make the most of my time

[@carldawson832]

[@C3BFA]

Thanks Carl

[@boatfishingscottyano]

Great to see you back out and making videos

[@C3BFA]

It feels great Lee. I may of just bought a brand new camera 😁😁

[@boatfishingscottyano]

@@C3BFA very nice Dave

[@C3BFA]

It should massively improve footage ans no more freezing up

[@boatfishingscottyano]

@@C3BFA i really like my new one it’s great

[@C3BFA]

@boatfishingscottyano I can't wait it's my first upgrade since starting the channel

[@castersfishingwales2038]

Nice one Dave bud!

[@C3BFA]

Thanks casters

[@dazlee3257]

Good stuff, still quite slow up here too. 👍

[@C3BFA]

Thanks daz. Hopefully things pick up very soon

[@dazlee3257]

@@C3BFA yeah June is life 🤣

[@C3BFA]

@@dazlee3257 I know 😢😢😢

[@Trojwaterman]

That will give you a workout legs and arms. You Might want to consider some gunnel protection. 😄👍

[@C3BFA]

Definitely troy. For gunnel protection I was no really sure what to use because they are rectangular shape gunnels. Do you have any ideas?

[@Trojwaterman]

@@C3BFA I always use 4" drain pipe

[@C3BFA]

@@Trojwaterman I did think of that but not sure it would work on these gunnels

[@Trojwaterman]

@@C3BFA It works on the Orkney gunnels they are pretty big

[@C3BFA]

@Trojwaterman I will give it a try troy thank you for the input I appreciate it

[@MarkAndrewReed]

Good to see you out doing what you love mate 👍

[@C3BFA]

It feels good mark and thank you. I habe just bought a new camera so hopefully that will massively improve the footage going forward

[@Alsvargy]

Good Vid Dave, be good to see how things develop as you head into summer 👌🏼 If you don't catch any lobsters, at least you'll have arms like Popeye.

[@C3BFA]

Thanks Al, lobster will show up soon.

[@sloth4666]

Nice inshore workhorse!,the slim bow done its job in them conditions,will you be extending the rails Dave?

[@C3BFA]

It did sloth. Im not sure the shape of the boat makes it very difficult to find somthing to suit. I would have to have them made ans it would be very expensive

[@boatfishingscottyano]

Just watching now it’s pretty rough looking

[@C3BFA]

It was quite lumpy to be fair it was way worse in person the video didn't show it I got out ans thought ummmmm maybe I should turn back 😂😂😂

[@boatfishingscottyano]

@@C3BFA yes never looks as bad on video than it actually is

[@CaptainJacksFishingShack]

hi was wondering if you could help me a i got my potting permit but im finding this confusing The Permit applies to that part of Welsh Waters that lies within the 6nm fishery limit to the northeast of a line drawn true northwest from the extremity of Cemaes Head in the County of Ceredigion. dose this mean i cant use pots say off of aberporth ????

[@C3BFA]

Yes I believe your right it's in the area you applied for Jack. If they where found in an area and not registered the fisheries would remove the pots

[@CaptainJacksFishingShack]

@@C3BFA hmm very odd it was the only option to apply for its 29 miles from me

[@C3BFA]

@CaptainJacksFishingShack can you apply for both areas? I will be honest I'm not fully clued up on it but I applied for my area and it is boxes so my assumption is it's only that area

[@CaptainJacksFishingShack]

@@C3BFA this is all there is to apply for Recreational potting north Commercial whelk potting Scallop dredging north Scallop dredging south

[@C3BFA]

@@CaptainJacksFishingShack can you email them to ask just so you can be sure?

[@tuhobbyonline]

The video keeps freezing probably because you are using a GoPro, it's a known problem that the brand does not want to sort it. There are other options on the market like the DJI Osmo and insta 360 Ace pro that record good quality videos and won't crash like GoPro

[@C3BFA]

Yes your are right it's the gopro 8 but they are old and battered they have been heavily used for over 3 years. I have literally just bought a new gopro 12 due to these freezing issue. Hopefully it's a thing of the past now

[@tuhobbyonline]

@@C3BFA No, it's not a thing of the past, and the new ones do that as well. Unfortunately, GoPro is not willing to address these issues. On the new 12, they had to remove the GPS on the camera to alleviate the issue, but it's still there

[@C3BFA]

@@tuhobbyonline well hopefully it's OK. My cameras did well untill this about a year ago

[@tuhobbyonline]

@@C3BFA It'll be ok in winter, during hot weather is where they struggle the most

[@C3BFA]

@@tuhobbyonline we never get hot weather in the UK 😂😂😂😂☔☔
