Sea Fishing from the Beach in December

[@stevesmith7943]

I watch plenty of videos on sea fishing and appreciate advice and tips on baits, rigs, locations etc., but want to say how enjoyable this video was, no commentary, just listening to the sounds of gulls, waves and tide over the shingle and just watching you fish, really appreciated, thank you! 👍

[@SaltwaterAngler]

That’s good to know. I think some folks miss the sound of the Sea so wanted to concentrate on that a bit more today. Appreciate the feedback

[@ratsstuff1952]

Agree too!

[@AndyJohnJones83]

I agree, not all of us are beginners instructional videos are fine but watching someone wrap a bait up for the hundredth time gets a bit tedious I find I'm skipping these bits on most people's vids, really enjoyed this it was a refreshing take in the fishing video genre👍🎣🎣

[@SaltwaterAngler]

@andyjones2078 great feedback thanks very useful

[@andrewdking]

New camera work was it and I appreciate the perfectly horizontal horizon at the start. No wet lap !

[@wynmorgan3079]

My favourite video of yours. Thank you!

[@Ostseemansteve]

Thanks for the beatiful moments from the coast❤

[@SaltwaterAngler]

[@3wolves110]

[@jonhopkins9174]

brilliant sitting here with head phones on thanks.

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Nice to know thanks - will do a spring and summer version

[@ukgraffitiwalker8846]

I take my hat off to you for being arsed with fishing and camera work at the same time, It takes a lot for me just to fish with two rods!!

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Thanks for recognising that, yes it becomes a problem when I loose a bit of fishing concentration(also a good excuse)

[@cortoolei-pearson7702]

I really enjoyed this, thanks Matt 👍

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Hello mate thanks good to know!

[@fishingwithtednfamily]

Brilliant Matt well done 👍💫🖖

[@batch6792]

I really enjoy watching your videos. So much to learn. Thankyou for this session from the beach. Merry Christmas. 😊

[@stiofain4693]

Your editing of videos is outstanding, very talented fisherman….

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Thanks for watching and the feedback, still lots of improvements to be made next year. I hope it shows our coastline is as best light as possible

[@nicholascavie2464]

Awesome again Matt, been very hot here 40 plus ,would sell my soul 2 b fishing on Hastings beach in the COLD, and b happy just catching whiting. Happy catching from Australia Nick

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Happy to swap Nick ! Yea they are ok the whiting a great British tradition from the beach.

[@Law24809905]

Brilliant watch! Excellent listen.

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Thanks , something a bit different this week

[@geoff738]

Great opening shot of the sea and sky quality filming 👍

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Thanks Our coastline in the U.K can be quite amazing at times. Always trying to capture them at their best. One day I hope to get a proper camera

[@TheBigadam1980]

Very arty french, i wouldn't want all your videos like this but quite enjoyable.

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Yep thanks don’t worry just a one off really.

[@ivanstreet1201]

Another beautiful video Matt as always, but just a bit different, well done. Hope you are feeling 100% again very soon.

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Thanks mate !

[@glencronin1592]

Well, what can I say? LOL.👍👍👍🎣🎣🎣

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Ha ha thanks for watching (listening)

[@paulpaula2011]

Just goes to show, if your production value is this good, no need for words. This put me on the beach, could have been fishing myself. Class re chasing the bag down the beach, nice touch! Sound of the sea, the wind, the birds, pebbles under foot, very relaxing indeed. Thank you.

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Thank you- I think I have to make a run for a plastic bag every session! Never cut out to be a goalkeeper !

[@stevesmith7943]

👍 yes, chasing the bag was a nice touch, pretty sure most of us have been there! 😂

[@JIG-V8]

I only live in Bexhill and I'm always jealous of people that have been taught to fish. Living my sea fishing dreams through you 😂

[@kieronmarr1078]

Never too late to start.

[@milfordjmeredith4496]

Running after a bin bag. We've all done that😂😂😂

[@SaltwaterAngler]

I know right 🤪

[@larrylad44larry5]

Brilliant silent video ….. loved it

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@brianpask8955]

Hope you are feeling better soon buddy. Must meet up for a session soon if you fancy it. Loved this video - brings home the sounds that brings many of us beach anglers to our "happy place".

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Yes let’s do it. I’ve got a New rod to test this week so might need a decent caster to help me weds or Thursday

[@brianpask8955]

​@@SaltwaterAngler I sent you a text earlier Matt. Available for rod bashing. I shall likely be in front of the club for an hour tomorrow morning from around 8.30am. Hit a few with my rods as well

[@skateboardingjesus4006]

A nice laid back quiet one? Well, nature isn't really quiet, but definitely relaxing.

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Good observation as always - thanks

[@matsmet]

Great vid as all way's but you made the beach look so inviting ! looking out of my window in Seaford it's horrible most the time, not been down there since October lol great editing your video's are always leaping forward in quality loved hearing the beach, gonna have to get down there

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Ahh my plan worked ! Always hope to get you out fishing ! Yea I’ve tried to make the most of a break in the weather really it’s usually so grey in winter isn’t it. Hope you get out at least for some whiting

[@christianlear7305]

Actions speak louder than words....😂

[@johnsmith-rs2vk]

Wessex rig . 6/0 -3/0 pennel on the running ledger with big squid or mackerel bait , 3/0 top snood with big worm bait . 20 -30 yards out . Can be deadly close in for that big bass .

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Thanks I’ve never really used anything other than one hook length for close in Big Bass fishing. But I’ll give that one a go at some point. Thanks

[@johngreen6191]

Cheers.

[@Gazzyb2071]

Great video again Matt, but i much prefer a bit of commentary. 👍

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Thanks mate! Yea bit if a one off due to some illness back with the commentary next upload

[@robertcornelius8056]

Nice day for it

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Yep have to get the weather windows this time of the year

[@FitGex]

nice

[@fleshboundtobone]

Are the big breakaway leads & strong rods strictly necessary in conditions like these? Could I get away with essentially carp/pike gear and e.g. a 2oz lead?

[@SaltwaterAngler]

No needs a 5oz lead. It’s not really the waves you see it’s the swell under the water. Lots of shingle shifting after the previous weather. That said on smaller tides 3oz leads will just about hold. Summer lends itself to carp style set ups for sure

[@ozijohn43]

Good ASMR session .

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Great thanks for watching and listening!

[@ozijohn43]

Watched you from the start Matt when you had 30 subs lol,@@SaltwaterAngler good to see where you are now, keep on keeping on x

[@SaltwaterAngler]

That’s really good to know - sorry for putting you through those terrible first attempts all those years ago !

[@kiwi_boi-si8vv]

What kind of lens were you using at 9.20? Some sort of fisheye?

[@SaltwaterAngler]

It’s a bit daft and fun but it’s a 360 camera (insta 360 1x3)

[@johnsmith-rs2vk]

Dover sole time ? 3 hook flapper with small hooks , 2, -4 , and weighted snoods .

[@tomcline8849]

Nice video Matt thanks for uploading. Can i ask what are the rods you are using please

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Yea check out the tackle I use on the website www.saltwaterangler.co.uk - colmic lunar the better of the two. Having problems with reel seat on them both though

[@richarddavies2635]

so what type of fish did you catch ?

[@SaltwaterAngler]

It’s a whiting

[@LE-mx6yv]

Can I ask what line you are using on your reels? Great video as always! The 360 camera view looks crazy 😂

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Yes, Asso Ultracast

[@darrenross1807]

👍👍

[@sabbage100]

5:19 was that an escaping worm? 😂

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Good observation ! It was some weed on the leader knot though

[@leoncox2405]

White out !! Keeping the fair tho mate

[@PaulJones-v3z]

Aren’t you speaking?

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Lost my voice after an illness ! I’ll be chatting away in the next video though

[@PaulJones-v3z]

@@SaltwaterAngler get well soon ❤️
