Small Eye Ray || Bass || Flounder on West Coast Surf Beach

[@timothyjohnston6314]

That was a nice bass. I like your method for getting hooks out that were swallowed deep. 👍🇨🇦

[@IrishAnglingAdventures]

Thanks very much. Ya its a great technique to have but just always have to be careful not to damage the gills

[@MrTommyc33]

Amazing way to unhook that flounder, you must be a surgeon by day with that impressive technique.

[@IrishAnglingAdventures]

Haha thanks very much. Its just one of those skills someone has to show you. It really is a great way of unhooking all flats. You just have to be sure you are above or below all the gill rakers.

[@Inshore_Angler]

Super fishing they are the catches that are made for KZbin great to get them on film. 👍

[@IrishAnglingAdventures]

Thanks Chris. Ya I've been lucky with the camera 🤣

[@Inshore_Angler]

@@IrishAnglingAdventures the big bass was a beast grand thick fish too. We were on banna yday man it was harsh lol. Thought a Ray might show but it was an odd day

[@IrishAnglingAdventures]

@@Inshore_Angler ya was very happy with it. Ya I found the fishing last week slow. Weather seems to really be taking an effect.

[@Inshore_Angler]

@@IrishAnglingAdventures hopefully it's hotting up a bit the wind and rain was almost mild yday 😂

[@IrishAnglingAdventures]

@@Inshore_Angler hopefully anyway, I'm sick of these storms and freezing nights

[@johngorman5267]

Just came across your video, the advice you gave about unhooking the flat fish was very interesting, I have struggled in the past trying not to hurt them also the use of a piece of plastic tube for baiting was great ,thank you John Gorman.

[@IrishAnglingAdventures]

Great to hear you learned something from it. Its definitely the easiest way but always be aware not to damage the frills in the gills.

[@seankeane9078]

Class channel lads great to see a few Irish channels on the go

[@TommysOutdoors]

Good job! A great demonstration of unhooking a flounder. And, of course, congrats on the bass!

[@IrishAnglingAdventures]

Thanks Tommy. Ya hard to beat getting a surprise bass like that

[@thekid8562]

Love the vids man.Great session in the daylight....

[@IrishAnglingAdventures]

Certainly was but the water was stirred up so that did help a lot

[@chuckarooful]

Lovely job James, really enjoyed that. Some crackin fish too 👌🏻

[@IrishAnglingAdventures]

Cheers Charlie. Was delighted with it alright

[@SpiralMoss]

Is that Bally B ? Well done 👍 I find lug the best off the Clare beaches 👍

[@IrishAnglingAdventures]

Hey man, ya thats the one. If im specifically targeting bass Ill always go for lug hands down but saying that all my big bass always have come off a double sandeel when fishing for ray.

[@dennisevitt3291]

Cant wait to get back out fishing once this outbreak has blow over. and i will be trying the disgorging tip with out a doubt struggled with so many flat fish in the past. Cant wait to get back to west coast I think my first trip that we have planed is on the east coast around Wexford hopefully pick up a few bass there. And hopefully its not to late in the year to maybe hit into a smoothie or 2.

[@IrishAnglingAdventures]

Just remember if your unhooking a flattie this way to go make sure your not between the gills fronds try go above or below depending on how the hook is. Once you get the hang of it's a joy. Ah hopefully we will be well out of all this by then. Smoothies should be showing up a little later than last year. Water temp is 2 degrees lower then last year so hopefully it will keep them out a little longer until we are all able to get out haha

[@TheEastbourneFisherman]

Awesome channel keep up the good work :)

[@IrishAnglingAdventures]

Thanks very much man. Really appreciate it. Certainly will try my best

[@TheEastbourneFisherman]

Irish Angling Adventures will have to come and have a go what’s the fishing like in Ireland atm

[@IrishAnglingAdventures]

@@TheEastbourneFisherman At the moment is not great but it is that time of year when the summer species havent come in and the winter species have moved off. so it will be quiet until mid april really. Saying that the summer I have really high hopes for as last year has been my best year so far with multiple PB's which i hope to break again. Definitely worth a trip over once all thi s Covid-19 stuff is over with.

[@specimendavetv7826]
