Lure Fishing for Pollack - UK Shore fishing | The Fish Locker

Lure fishing for Pollack from the shore is great sport on light gear. Here we use soft lures and metal jigs to catch some incredible Pollack.
Here are some links to the lures we used. I hope it helps.

What a fantastic day you had mate. Seemed like you couldn't miss. Good to know that biggish fish can be caught so close to the shore. I guess it's all about knowing the best marks. Hard to find the best ones but I need to do more discovering of my own. From what I've heard so far though, the best marks are in mostly dangerous areas.We are experiencing fires at the moment and I'm a tad distracted form how things are going down the coast. Our next camping day was not far away but will probably have to cancel it because of the air quality. There is a strong smell of burning outside and there's a haze with visibility down to maybe half a kl . Still, a fire would not stop me watching your videos. Looking forward to the next one John. Have a great day.

Great video as always! Would it be possible to do a video on how to find good shore fishing spots. Maybe using Google maps or things to look out for in general. I live well inland but I like to go fishing when i am by the coast, but I always end up having to fish on really busy piers or harbours because I can't find any good shore marks. Thank you 🙂👍

[@TheFishLocker]

seancoates92 - This is something I have talked about quite a bit with folks in the comments. I can’t really do a video as there are a lot of people that don’t like the sharing of marks. And if I fully publicise then over the internet theyd be ruined. At the end of the day it’s all done by good old fashioned research and leg work. Sometimes they turn out to be crap. Other times and they’re incredible. Just searching navionics or online forums and google maps. Then the getting out and fishing them. 👍🏻🎣

n8ce fish bro what piranti stick do you use for

[@jimmymature1976]

Where is this? Not a Cornish coast

[@TheFishLocker]

- Are you sure about that?

[@jimmymature1976]

The Fish Locker no way!!! I don’t recognise the ‘mountainous’ terrain in the back ground

[@djrobertson1964]

Pretty sure I know though 😉

[@TheFishLocker]

Jimmy Mature - I’ll give you a clue. It’s not Essex. 😉👍🏻🎣

[@real_wakawaka]

@@TheFishLocker haha looks like scotland. No way do we have those kind of terrain in cornwall. Either wales, ireland or scotland. Im going for scotland as it looks to familiar to a few marks i have seen before. If its in cornwall then i would be shocked as we do not have mountains in england within an inlet. No Way! hahaha cant be essex too ;)

What a cracking rock mark that is! It is so much fun to catch on a lure! didn't want to blink my eyes :) , really enjoyed every second of it, shame we have nothing like that mark near by, will definitely put more efforts to lure fishing next summer. Thanks for sharing John tight lines

[@TheFishLocker]

Masterfisherman - I prefer bait fishing but every now and then a lure session is really good fun. 😊🎣🐟

[@johnturner45]

What a cracking session John, like shelling peas some beautiful looking fish from a shore mark, them lures took a real bashing well done
