Trying to Catch a Rare UK Fish!

This was all filmed well before Lockdown. Hope you all enjoy it! 🎣

[@danielcoppock]

Cheers for the upload graham awesome session :D some lovely break and some new species we don't get to see very often

What was the rare species you intended to catch.

It’s always been a safe bet that I can hit the LIKE before the video starts... Haven’t been let down yet! Thanks Graeme, TOTALLY AWESOME!

[@erictait3235]

All the TAF videos are great. Bonus when Wayne is with you, Graeme.

[@chrisbowden6172]

Very envious your out in the boat and I can't.... Cracking video thanks

[@TAFishing]

I'm not !!..This was a film from my files.....

[@grahamnash9794]

"I can't quit you baby"....Ooooh I love some blues And another great video. Good to see Wayne looking well. With so many restrictions around, there are a lack of new boat fishing videos coming from TA fishing. That made this all the more a treat. I love seeing the mixed bag of species from an off shore session. Take extra care out there Graeme. Within a mile of Cove, there are 8 of my most precious friends that are covid positive. " of which live in the same building as me and my family.

[@TAFishing]

Wow....If I go to B&Q I'm using the other road...hope everyone stays safe with your friends,my plumber recently told me he's cutting down his jobs as its too risky,and talking to a South coast tackle dealer he said its rife in his area.

No problems, plenty more films to come..I'm saving my better films for later on as I have no idea when I will be able to travel around again.

Mackerel is a funny little fish.. the sea and the fjords here in the southern part of Norway is full of them all summer, and yet I get loads of Mackerel when I go ice fishing on my local fjord as well. By then, the fish have often gotten quite fat and massive, if you’re lucky.

Great session thanks Graeme & Wayne! Oooh - Cheese & Marmite sarnies - YUM! Some great Mackerel & Bream, they would have benefitted from an introduction to my Cast Iron pan!

Stay safe & well. 👍👍

Yes, sometimes the older GoPro only records in mono, and the music track is standard stereo I guess...Still a few films on file that are mono. Only seems noticeable with headphones,I had a listen on mine.

Mackerel is a warm water fish. They show up along the Swedish west coast all the way down to Öresund in the summer.

[@kevinbuckler1085]

I was all excited when I read the title,I thought you'd caught a unicorn fish !!! Great days fishing though.

[@jamesshamley6577]

Nice video thank you. Triggers are pretty easy to catch here on the east coast of South Africa, get them with squid bait, but even on the sabiki in about 20 to 30 meters depth. Best fish in the world to make sashimi from surprisingly, follow it up by frying the spine and head. Delicious.

[@mattgosling2657]

I've watched videos of fishing where you are, looks very good. Even from shore lots of big fish, sharks and big predator fish, looks better than our sea fishing mate.

[@mac148]

Its pretty simple where the mackerel are going in to the giant trawlers nets they catch tons at a time

[@richardmunday7863]

Does Wayne do trips for the public. If yes. From where and how much

[@TheCaptainbeefylog]

I'm not sure if you have covered it before, but is there much live baiting done in the UK? Those horse mackerel would be excellent live baits here year round in South East Queensland. Send them down with a 5/0 circle in its back.

[@TAFishing]

Usually its only Bass or Pollack that anglers might livebait for..The Scads,or Horse Mackerel are incredibly tough as livebaits and while they don't seem to have the oil the Mackerel does they are definately long lasting. I would say most people don't livebait over here.

[@MedievalFolkDance]

Hey, don't knock it Mr. P. I've heard a few anglers speak very highly about the benefits of a teaspoon of marmite. Theres a bit of a consensus that salt is an attractant. Might try a bit of an experiment myself next time. It's all trial & error at the end of the day after all.

[@dahutful]

I'm a Yank and I love Marmite. You either love it... or hate it. Dont know about the fish.

[@MedievalFolkDance]

@@dahutful I've heard it mentioned more and more along bankside to be true. Worth a try on a few baits. Not a huge loss if it doesnt work

Graham how old do you think the eels were your catching ?

[@TAFishing]

I have no idea on growth rates. I have never heard of eels being tagged,but the freshwater version are supposed to swim all the way to the Sargasso sea to breed. I don't know if the (sea) Conger Eel is a slow grower or not...Does anyone else out there know ??

[@matthewtanner9823]

I've heard a lot of people saying there are more Dolphin being seen these days around our coastline. If there aren't so many Mackeral then what are they eating? Or is that the reason there aren't so many mackeral? Oh and My Dad and me used to have cheese and Marmite sandwiches every Saturday out shooting, you can't beat them!!

[@TAFishing]

You should put those sandwiches in the clay launcher and take a right and left on them !!!....I wonder if the Dolphin are eating the Squid,which a couple of years ago seem to have replaced the Mackerel,though I heard down on the South Coast it was also tougher shore squid fishing this year.

[@matthewtanner9823]

Ive seen fishing shows where they were caught around new York, looked good and they were big so looked fun catching them on lures. Do you get white sturgeon in California? The ones from a Canadian river ive seen are absolutely huge. The fishing you get in the states looks way more varied than what we get over here. We have big tuna in the sea around our coastline but I think it's illegal to catch them.

Just read this....👀 If you live in England, this is applicable Latest Government advice for recreational boating British Marine have had it confirmed by the UK Government that boating is a form of exercise and therefore is an accepted excuse to leave home in England. There are several important caveats to this, primarily that members of the public cannot travel out of their local area to reach their vessel and that all exercise must be done in line with government guidance i.e. can only be done with members of 1 household/bubble or one other and social distancing is maintained. Members of the public are urged to check with the local navigation authority, harbour authorities and the Marinas for local rules before travelling to their vessels. DfT released the following statement: "We have received clarification on guidance relating to boating and leisure activities from CO/DCMS. Therefore, we can confirm that boating is allowed as exercise (in England). This covers all sailing boats/yachts as long as they abide by the gathering limits, social distance rules and stay local rules.” British Marine would like to remind all boaters of their responsibility to stay safe, abide by the guidance and laws (including local restrictions) and keep others around them safe when participating on any on water exercise.

Protecting himself from what? Fishing is allowed during lockdown including boat fishing as well as fishing with people from your household or 1 person from another household

I hold over 30 films backed up at any one time...but with Covid lockdowns I am ploughing through them. You may as well enjoy them while you can ,once they are gone, that's it . I'm too old to want to risk Covid,we all think we are a copy of Superman,but I don't really fancy testing it out,so I'm hunkering down .There is no decent fishing within the 5 miles of my house,which I have heard is the limit. Plus the weather plays a part..I hate the winter cold,I don't know why it was ever invented..I'm happier with oppressive humidity....
