We sometimes give them away but we are mostly a catch and release boat when ever we can put fish back .I'm not realy a table fish sort of angler tbh .with the bass ban only allowing a few to be kept anyway its hardly worth bringing them in .thanks for your comment.
Thanks matt .absolutely fantastic lures. A real fish producer .they also worked extremely well with cast and retrieve tactics. You can put these lures away from the boat and into the wind .amazing potential for the joker jigs . I can feel a road trip comming on .all the best matt catch u soon .
@fishdisco3107 .hi Lincoln. Yes absolutely amazing to be back afloat .we're catching up for lost time now .hopefully a few more trips if summer ☀️ decides to arrive. Tight lines and great cooking on your next video mate .cheers for your support.
Great video there toadfish, a day to remember and nice to see another 165 in a bit of a swell! Is the tractor yours or available to members of the boat club? Tightlines
@RhysFishes Thank u rhys .yes was a good day out there .the tractor 🚜 is privately owned by myself .its a difficult beach to launch from with heavy boats like warriors .thanks for your comment.
Thanks Lee.. we were given them to try out a few months ago ,weather and maintenance prevented us from trying them .we found them very productive. Was our 1st time using them .
@boatfishingscottyano yes I was surprised how good they were in the shallow waters we have here on gower .something bigger be nice next time .lol.tight lines on the scottyano Lee.
Cheers casters. Yes was great to get afloat again after months of maintenance. Seemed to go on and on .hopefully get a few more trips in soon .tight lines matt
Good to be back on the water again and on the fish .Still lots to get through this year .we need that weather to settle. These direct southerly winds are a pain out there .I've been brain fogged fir a week after that side on slap all day .nevermind we got the fish and tested the new lures .
I lost the chalk board matt .im the skipper so the score is what i say it is .lol😂😊.always let him get infront at the start then come back and slay him .lol@castersfishingwales2038
Only seems like yesterday when there were loads of charter boats operating out of Swansea in the winter on the Cod and 20lb plus fish were caught regularly in the 80’s and 90’s, with some tipping the scales in the 30’s. Sadly due to it though, the black lug beds here on Cefn Sidan were all but pumped dry by commercial bait boys and whether it’s due to that or the environment, they still haven’t recovered. Warmer waters have driven the big Cod north now and in return we’re getting more warmer water fish like Giltheads etc. and the BFT are back in numbers.
Yes I remember those halcyon days off swansea with big cod featuring in the magazines caught on the charter boats .terrible shame its all gone .most of the table fish cod/plaice /turbot were absolutely hammerd .seems to be a steady run of smooth hounds and rays around in the bristol channel .thanks for your valid comment it's Brought back some good memories as a youngster fishing on the swansea boats .some good characters back then .gower ranger /Roger and Ernie. Helium was another .lady Gail. Good times
Thanks mate .we will be targeting tge tope 1st then onto the bass soon as we can. Got quite a lot of maintenance on the boat next few weeks getting ready for summer ☀️. Keep in touch. Let's get some fish .
Thank u Steven. Hope the video helps u catch some nice bass this summer ☀️. Keep in touch and let us know how u get on . Let's hope for some improvement in this weather soon .tight lines from the Toadfish.
Ha .yes there are some joys in owning a boat .lol. all the best with the lures matt .I need to speak to u soon about ordering some to try out in my neck of the woods .
Where did you find the weather lol. Great to see you get out there and some nice fish too. Those rays are carrying knives now lol. Lovely cod too well worth the trips 👍
Thanks mate 👍. Opportunity for a few days at sea this winter have been few and far between. Will this wind and rain ⛈️ ever stop .let's hope for a better summer ☀️.
Thank u casters .glad u liked the video. Was good to catch up with u over a pint last week .even if it was under sad circumstances. Thanks for your comment matt .
Yes, got one! What stunning weather to be on the water. The decline in cod numbers is such a shame, thank god for the blonde rays…well done Rob, great vid again mate 😎👍👍
Yes was a nice day out there .we don't get many. The decline of the cod stocks over the last 15 years has been a terrible shame .sadly they are no longer viable to target realy .roll on summer ☀️. Thanks for your comment 👍
Thanks Lincoln. For some reason the main video got taken from my files whilst editing. Lost the entire file .never had that before .ahh well will make sure next one is backed up .
@@toadfishuksportangling2690 what a nightmare , you must have been gutted mate, luckily I’ve not had that yet, just the “forgot to press play” moments & that’s bad enough! …I guess this means you’ll just have to go fishing again😄
