SALTWATER LURE FISHING FOR BEGINNERS - WHERE TO START (SEA FISHING UK)

In this video we look at the different items I take with me when lure fishing for bass. Take a look at the lures I will be using for 2021 season such as the patchenko, asturie, Abu garcia tormentor and pirate lures teasers to name a few. Describe different lures and what they are used for and We look at how to set up soft plastics. Lastly we take a look over the ground where I will be fishing at low tide to show you the kind of areas that will potentially hold bass.
Huge thanks for watching

Thanks for the comment and I'm glad you want to give it a go. I'm going to try course fishing in 2023 hopefully :)

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Thanks for that Jason , it's made me get excited for the season. Appreciate taking a look in to the secrets of another mans tackle box ! Ive always found weighted soft plastics like that a bit too heavy though much prefer the lures unweighted especially for that mark. Is this video part of a *series ?* Keep them coming mate

[@TheEastbourneFisherman]

Looking foward to this year hopefully will get into the bass earlier than last year. I prefer the soft plastics weighted can cast them miles! I may make it part of a series not too sure yet would be fun to do

Cracking video mate 👌. I've got myself 3 of them boxes filled up with lures . Down in Cornwall in September for a week camping. Don't know if I've got the right gear???? . Got myself a Mitchell Riptide rod and a Mitchell Avocet reel. Got all the lures you mentioned but someone recommended a Diawa Shoreline shiner. Apparently he has never not caught a Bass on his local mark down in Cornwall. Keep the videos coming mate both shore and lure. Cheers Paul

Hi i have a question. Fishing from the beach is it better to have weighted lures or weightless lures that float? Do i add any of that spray on scent stuff onto the lures? I never catch anything 😂

[@TheEastbourneFisherman]

I prefer weighted just can cover more distance out further if on the shore If fishing off rocks into deep water then weightless possibly depending on how rough it is Never used the scent stuff!

Cheers Chris :) Look for structure rocks reef all good places :)

[@jezjez5070]

Nice video! Newbie here. Why do you need a leader can’t you just attach the lure to the line?? Cheers.

[@TheEastbourneFisherman]

Braid on its own around rocks is pretty non abrasion resistant On a clean beach you can prob get away with it The use of a fluro carbon leader acts as a rubbing leader meaning if it brushes against rocks it's less Likley to cut than straight braid Also the fluro leader is pretty much invisible in the water so it makes your lure look more realistic Hope this helps :)

[@jezjez5070]

Excellent! Thanks for that wasn’t quite sure of the reason for using it 👍🏻

[@me1234-d7d]

I do use a fluorocarbon leader around 2ft which is triline

[@brianharris7880]

link if possible please @@TheEastbourneFisherman

[@gopherbar]

Hi why do you need a leader line, why cant you just attach the lure to the main fishing line. Great video thanks for posting

[@TheEastbourneFisherman]

Hi thanks for commenting Technically you can do a straight connection The leader line acts as a more hardened line which is more abrasive to dragging on the rocks and such you will be fishing over So instead of straight braid which if it rubs on rocks ect will cut the leader will be more Hardy and less likely to break Also using a fluorocarbon line is like invisible In the water meaning more of a natural lure presentation Alot of people so prefer using a leader However if you fish clean beaches then going direct will work

[@markfahey3921]

Just found this video, it's great. I am late in life to fishing and struggling to learn. I've got the gear, I need the knowledge.

Hi Mark its never too late buddy, I will hopefully be doing alot more lure related videos this year. Last year was a bit of a write off with covid and adverse weather but this year im determined to get on it! Cheers for watching Are you local?

[@robregist]

Excellent video. Informative and I like the emphasis on safety as I learn to lure fish alone. A question; I drive/walk 90 minutes to the Sussex coast exploring and often arrive to find cloudy water. How can I best predict clear(ish) water before hitting the road?!

[@TheEastbourneFisherman]

Thanks for commenting. Saftey is a key factor i do alot of work with the RNLI so am a keen advocate of saftey! Best way is to join a local facebook group My group is called UK & IRELAND SEA ANGLERS (THE EASTBOURNE FISHERMAN) Feel free to join us and you can post to ask clarity ect they all a fab bunch Othet ideas is to check the local beach web cams you can find these via a google search Tbh i wouldnt be put off with clarity just adapt your fishing to a slower retrieve and a more brighter lure colour flourecents Hope this helps And happy fishing :)
