Lure Fishing UK | Pollack & Cod Love These Lures! | LRF Coalies

With nearly 4 months passing since my last rock fishing trip I was nearly doing cartwheels when Scotland finally allowed peopled to fish again.
I headed out in the first weather window available to do a spot of LRF fishing and lure fishing.
I was rewarded with an AWESOME day of lure fishing with lots of plump coalifsh on LRF tackle and pollack and cod on heavier tackle.
The fish seemed to love the longer sand eels imitations I was using and hitting the lures on the drop.
I try to bring you along with me and show you as much as of my day as possible.
Hope you enjoy.

[@baigy8987]

Great effort! Love fishing up there, aswell as st abbs. Would normally be up 2 -3 times a week (or more) after work on the light nights. Same for me never that productive, but when i have landed fish theyve always been a good size around there. Missing it alot as ive moved to south france now and learning to fish the beachy coast here all over again. Keep the vids coming man! keeps me sane when missing home! Ha!! 👍🎣🎣

Will do! I love it up there too but if I had to choose between the south of France and Scotland, I think I know where I'd chose! Tight lines 👍 🎣

[@masterbeethoven8209]

Despite being on the lower range of reels, those Shimano Hyper loops are actually bloody good - I bought a 4000 a few years ago as a temporary reel before I replaced my knackered Penn ... never bought a replacement and still use it today for beach fishing. Works just fine.

One of your best vids I reckon. Edits are just getting better. Bet it was a quicker edit than the blurring for bass vids too.

[@SlippyLimpets]

ha yeah just a bit quicker mate ;-)

[@martinshephard6317]

I’ve watched this several times now and it’s a serious remedy for me as a desk jockey working long hours! It’s just occurred to me that in addition to the glue, you could wind an inch or so of insulation tape around the body where it would tear, ie just where the hook exits the body. Yellow, black ,green or blue and the right width to suit the lure size- any of them might do.

[@SlippyLimpets]

Hi Martin, thanks for the suggestion. I'll give that a try. Glad you're getting a bit of escapism from my vids👍🎣

Love you I intro, covid messed up alot. I posted a picture of my first fish of 2020 on Facebook on the day lockdown was announced on the isle of man but I didn't know cuz I was out fishing all day so I got loads of attacks saying why r u out during lockdown, I posted via phone and I wasn't checking the news I go fishing to get away from that lol u know what am saying.

[@SlippyLimpets]

It was a tough time. I had a few negative comments on a video I filmed just before lockdown but posted afterwards. Keyboard warriors! Thankfully that's all a thing of the past

Top session mate - it's been great to get out now that fishing lockdown is over. If you fancy some novelty bait fishing, the Holderness coast has been amazing for rays, cod, bass and smoothhounds well into double figures.

As always Awesome vid mate .was waiting for your new rock fishing vid like crazy))is that eyemouth?im planning to go there for the first time and wondered if there r some easy accesible spots. Cheers for nice vid

[@SlippyLimpets]

Yeah there's plenty to go at. On the south side of the town nearly all the headlands are accessible and the closer to town they are the smaller the cliffs. There are a few popular marks on the north side, opposite the caravan park, that are easily accessible but tidal. Hope this helps and thanks for the comment 👍 i

[@CarlNixonFlyFishingFlyTying]

Morning Slippy! Some cracking footage! I've a fair idea where you are, but never fished it and won't mention it here as I live fairly local, but.... Do you reckon there's room to cast a fly there...backcast space etc? We could get a colab video done maybe? 👌👌

[@user-uq4wt5iv8m]

Great videos just starting Lrf, not sure how to retrieve

[@SlippyLimpets]

Depends what species you're fishing for and what you're fishing with, but a lift and draw works well for most lures and depths. Hope this helps

Another good session there, great to watch it happen. Do you not repair your shads with superglue? Like you said, they're not cheap. Keep the vids coming.

[@SlippyLimpets]

I've tried to but it never seems to work. Fiiish have a glue called mend it so might give that a go. 👍

[@adamskitheangler3631]

Great video as always mate. Glad to see you discovered the secrets of superglue ;) Is it worthwhile trimming some of those eel lures down by an inch when you miss a hook-up? They look long enough that there'd still be plenty of action on them.

[@SlippyLimpets]

It's magic stuff ;-) I'll give that a go next time out, thanks for the tip! 👍🎣

[@jameycook778]

great video You ever tried the fiish black minnows? they are great aswell. Where was this looks a lovely coast to fish

Yeah I use them more off the kayak than from the shore, too expensive to keep losing them. Great lures though. 👍

[@jerrycrowe62]

Hi. Cool video. I'm Very new to fishing and just curious about how you're using the lures. Do you cast them in and just leave them there? I fished up at loch dunvegan a few days back and no luck with casting in and jigging/reeling in. Had two coalies from some smoked bacon rind though!

[@christravis3270]

Thanks for sharing the session buddy, really appreciate it. Boring question I’m afraid. I was intrigued by the radio you carry, is it just a safety thing given you’re fishing alone? I fish with some mates, but still wear a small life jacket and carry a safety line just in case one of us goes in the drink. Never had to use any of it thank fully, but had considered a radio, so would be interested in your view.

[@SlippyLimpets]

That's the thing about safety kit, it's best when it's not used so becomes boring but still needed. I like the idea of a throw line, seems logical when fishing with people. I actually said something on the day about the radio but my camera failed to record...You're right, it is a safety thing, a phone is no good once you're in the water (touch screens and water don't work well) or smashed on the rocks if you fall and a lot of the marks I fish don't get any service. With the radio I can contact the coastguard directly or, because I fish these places a lot, I know which channel the local fishing boats use to call for help. The radio is water proof and floats so doesn't have any of the draw backs of a phone. The particular model I use has bluetooth so can be paired with my phone (which is in a waterproof case) to make or receive calls, if signal is available. Hope this helps but let me know if you have any other questions.

[@christravis3270]

That’s brilliant, thanks mate and stay safe

Top man Great video as always. Nice action on the lrf Surprised the wrasse didn't attack they wee lures. Is it still a bit early for them?

[@SlippyLimpets]

I've never managed to catch a wrasse on the lures on the east side of the country, only the west and south. Not sure what I'm doing wrong but you're right, it is perfect wrasse bait and ground. Maybe next time.

[@steviewright9789]

Sure it was Jarrow viking that posted a video a few years ago at st abbs bait fishing for wrasse. I've never caught them either on the East coast but know they are there. Cheers👍

[@SlippyLimpets]

Think I saw that video too. I searched using a float and bait, landed one so tried using lures in the same spot but still no joy. Perseverance pays off though.

[@holymoly40]

Great vids mate, do you not keep any of the cod for a cook up?

I tend not to because the cod from the rocks are all kelpies and normally have more worms in the flesh than a fresh run cod caught from a beach. Not quite as tasty!

I use an old pair of Scarpa Zodiac, there's nothing special about them for use on the rock but they seem to grip on most terrains apart from wet rock.
