Sea fishing trip launching off the beach. Boat netting trip herring & sprats. Angling fish bait UK

Well my father launched again today trying for herring and sprats. The conditions were nice when he launched, but the wind soon picked up. They shot 1 fleet of 2" nylon sunk herring nets, and the sprat seine net. When the wind picked up, it made it hard work to haul the gear, and had to swap over a couple of times hauling on the head rope, to give each other a rest. I asked him if he wished he had a net hauler today, but all he replied was 'men of steel, boats of wood!' hahaha Well there was a few herring today, a nice amount for Lowestoft fish market, but not too many to drop the price. There was unfortunately not many sprats, I think the sprats are virtually finished now, they have been gone by mid February the last 4/5 years, and the constant gales this winter we have been getting probably do not help.

Informative as always beany,many thanks Mike, will have to pop down and buy some herring of the old boy 🐠🤣👍

[@beanysfishing2555]

Cheers. We will soon start getting more herring and start putting them on my fb page for sale. The small amounts recently, it’s not worth doing.

There used to be a couple of 18ft chevertons here years ago. Both were fitted with outboards. They came here still fitted out as lifeboats, nice beamy boats for their length

You save it for the summer when you have fully recovered, just stand and watch.

[@beanysfishing2555]

Yes, I’m taking it a bit at a time until I’m recovered

3 in one day yr spoiling us buddy strange i thought other day on one of yr video u pull boat on forward and lauch forword i was trying tgo see if it was double end trailer are u based in caister i can see caravans near ramp were u drive on dnt know wether yr at caister or yarmouth up round the town and on the main shopping bit where tackle shop is with the float used to be packed in summer when we were kids now im taking my grankids dnt seem half as busy an lots more undesirables if u know what i mean thanks again for video cheers richard from sheffield

[@beanysfishing2555]

Yes, double ended trailer makes it easier. We have tried pulling boat on stern first, and it’s not for me. Yes we are based in Caister. I wouldn’t want to park a boat and tractor near Yarmouth beach, you get too much damage. Yes, it’s not like it was. You are thinking of Pownalls tackle shop on Regent Road. That road was packed with visitors in the summer

[@richardhogan8911]

Is that what it called sells pellet guns fishing tackle big float outside on wall parents used to say anybody gets lost make yr way to the float was that busy could be standing 20 foot apart and couldn't see each other some of back streets now look like benefits britian it's a shame

Another nice video mate. Do you launch between Second Avenue and Caister Camp?, I lived in Arthur Avenue in the 70s for a few years and fished off Second Avenue all the time.

[@beanysfishing2555]

We used to launch between 2nd Avenue and the camp many years ago, but the sea washed that old slip away. It was only sand, so didn’t take a lot. We now launch between the camp and the lifeboat shed

[@buckrogers2828]

Don't he have in 4wd?

[@beanysfishing2555]

Yes, he does have 4wd. Sometimes on pure sand at the hw mark it scrabs until it finds a bit of shingle etc

[@roxylass1]

Is it a mariner or Yamaha outboard as both are grey

[@beanysfishing2555]

It’s a Yamaha. The 2 stroke yams are bullet proof
