I have been fishing for 40 years and was introduced to it by my Uncle when I was twelve and owe him so much for helping me get started and his enthusiasm and skill. I am passionate about conservation of the marine environment and all the creatures it supports. My favourite target species in the winter months are Codling, Whiting and Bass. I occasionally go out on a boat but my true love and obsession is fishing from the beach in any weather night or day.
I hope to be able to help new anglers starting out and give us older more experienced anglers adventures and the realities of the highs and lows of sea angling in general.
I am an avid fisherman who fishes for Carp and Trout in the summer months and sea fishing all year around the south coast beaches. My target beaches are Dungeness, Folkestone, Rye Harbour, Chichester Harbour, Pagham, Bognor Regis, Selsey, Hayling Island and all the nooks and crannies in between.
Paul, best of luck with the move. I have been watching your videos for over a year and always look forward to seeing the next one. You are an example to many with your dedication and passion, and always enjoy your anecdotes, and the banter you share with your fellow anglers, regardless of what life throws at you. Again, good luck and tight lines, wherever you fish. Graham
@@bigbungle1973 Graham really appreciate your comments and support. I have always had a passion for fishing inspired by my late uncle who would have been brilliant in my videos. Few bumps with the cancer diagnosis and chose to run at it rather than running away and seems to be working. I will be back out soon to have more adventures and you never know a cod or two 🤞🤞🍻👍❤️
Thank you for the update Paul. I do hope and pray that all goes well for you and your family. I have really enjoyed watching your videos and to be able to join you on your health journey. Thank you for letting us in, to support you. You are a real ambassador for prostate cancer. Praying for you Paul. Trust all goes well. 😘🙏🙏
@@shirleysmith2128 Hi Shirley your kind comments and support are really appreciated and means a huge amount to me and my family. The prostate journey could have been run in two ways give up and feel sorry for myself or get up and go at it. All the subscribers out there and I include yourself have really helped me along to the finish line. I will be back out on a beach soon take care and god bless you 👍❤️❤️
@@lukeellis8522 Hi Luke really appreciate your kind message and will keep the videos coming once I am settled up North by the sea. Cheers and take care 🍻👍❤️
We never did get to do a Mr Crabtree 😂😂 Best of luck boy. Make sure you announce your new vlogs loudly as i will certainly be watching your "good for the soul" moments in pastures new. Busy times ahead Sir, Best Fishes to you and yours.
@@rayb228 Hi Ray thanks for the really kind words, your support, your humour and taking the time to chat to me. It has meant a huge amount to me and definitely will shout loudly for you on the next video in Yorkshire take care ❤️👍🍻
@@SeaFishingWithPaul oh no we're gonna have the Star Trek Vs Star Wars argument 🤣. A better way maybe "May your God go with You" cheers and get it all sorted perhaps even do an occasional vlog on it. You may be surprised!
@@rayb228 May your god go with you sounds a better way and reminds me of Dave Allen who used to make me laugh big time when I was younger. The Vlog idea I like take care 👍😁🍻

@@robertmurrell939 Sorry to hear you blanked at Selsey and really unusual. Can be really depressing and then factor in weed have had many days like that but then the PB comes along and all the bad times get forgotten. Enjoy Northumberland a really beautiful place. Thanks for all the support and will miss all my fishing friends like you from down south. Take care 👍🍻❤️
Eazy Paul you ok pal, I will be here still when you upload again . Best of luck with all that packing n then moving it half the country lol. Hopefully the codling are showing up are neck when you finally get settled in ya new abode n get bk on the beach . It has bin good fishing 4 me the last 3 weeks after 2 blanks. I've had a 34 cm, 36,cm soles, 2 thornback rays, eels flounders. All the best chief from up here In G.Y .
@@carldawson832 Hi Carl you have always been a real regular supporter of my channel and where I am moving to is not too far from Grimsby and a short term ambition is to have a fish with you on any of your recommended marks and learn a bit from you re your local knowledge and be great to meet you. Cheers for all the support over several years means a lot to me take care 👍🍻❤️
@@david892006 Thanks David the kind words are really appreciated and really looking forward to making a childhood ambition come true. Thanks for the support really appreciated take care 👍🍻❤️
Hi Paul Just a word of thanks for the time and effort you put in making videos in the past even when you where dealing with your own health issues. As for the present and future I send you best wishes in everything that comes your way and hope everything goes to plan. Take care and thankyou from Pete in Northern Ireland 👍
@@peterc1927 Hi Pete brilliant and heartwarming comments much appreciated and likewise wish you bags of happiness. I will be back and grateful for your support take care ❤️🍻👍
@@martinbrowning6266 Hi Martin have shared many ace adventures with you and will miss your company, humour and all round good bloke. It’s not goodbye it just adieu cheers fella 👍❤️❤️🍻🍻🍻
I thought it was a bit extreme to move hundreds of miles away just to improve your catch rate. The truth is none of your subscribers care wether you catch or not . We only watch to enjoy the humour, banter and your openness and honesty in your videos. Also the drone footage is excellent. Look forward to more videos. Stay safe and tight lines. Mike.
@@onemorecast5150 Hi Mike thanks for the warm, lovely and supportive comments made my afternoon a lot brighter. As you rightly say I don’t think my catch rate will ever improve but love fishing, the company and all the friends like you I have made out there in fishing land. Plan is to be up North latest beginning November and back making videos with new fishing friends and already have a few people who want to take me fishing and I will be back. Take care 🍻❤️👍🍻
@@philiphodgkinson6342 Hi Philip and thanks for the nice comments really looking forward to getting up North as used to be in the military and was stationed near York so know the area well. Will be back in the not too distant thanks for the support cheers 🍻 ❤️👍
It’s been great watching you love your videos so natural and help me through my bad sessions when I can’t go fishing. Hope you keep safe and look forward to seeing you again. Thank you.
All the best with the move and hope it is not too stressful. I have really enjoyed you videos and I look forward to watching you catching fish ooop norf later this year🙂
Good luck Paul. Well done and thank you for all the time and effort you put into sharing your videos/experience/ pains & laughs with us all. Family first - hope all goes well with your list of crud and you have the strength, patience & resolve to manage it all in your stride 👍🏻. I’m sure we can all wait a while ……and if you find the time and indeed the inclination to share your fishing experiences with us again from ‘up North’ your followings will pick up once again. Good luck. Enjoy. Thank you. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@danharvey7717 what brilliant and lovely things you have said and has cheered up my day. Yes it has been a bit of a journey so far with many downs and few ups but am getting through it all and grateful to all around me and I include you and all my fantastic subscribers out there which has helped anchor me to reality and life. Wasn’t going to move just yet but decided to change plans to make happen sooner. Thank you for the support which is much appreciated and I will be back with a cod in hand 😂🤞take care ❤️🍻👍
All the best with the move mate and looking forward to the new season when you're settled in. As anyone living on the east coast knows, you'll get some biting winds that will be a test for any of us soft southerners ;) See you soon.
@@PhilipCalvertSpeaker Hi Phil thanks for that and am excited and have a bit of trepidation at the same time. Clearing out rubbish and the detritus of life at the moment and being ruthless about it. Am looking forward to the winds howling along the beach and some bracing walks and home by a fire in the winter. Cheers 🍻 ❤️👍
Hope Andys injury is not to bad, had drink been taken! Had a move planned ourselves recently all fell through, pretty stressful, expect we’ll try again soon Good luck Kev
@@KevCane8464 Andy injured himself at work and will be off for 6 weeks and miss his company but he will definitely visit as he has a massive holiday allowance from the council. Sorry to hear about your house falling through and get the stress as am starting to clear down all the accumulated crap of many years from all the nooks and crannies. Thanks for your support and I will be back cheers 🍻 🍻❤️👍

@@KevCane8464 Hi Kevin sorry to hear that move fell through and yep it’s stressful just clearing the house is a challenge. Andy injured himself at work and will be off for 6 weeks. He definitely will be coming up to say as he gets a ridiculous amount of holiday allowance. Cheers for all the support and good luck finding another house to buy. ❤️👍🍻🍻
All the best Paul. I live around the Littlehampton area and your video on the river when you caught the eel was one of the first I watched when I was planning on getting the rods out again (still haven’t had anything out of the Arun). Looking forward to following you on your next adventure! Take care mate!
@@seven9zero640 Am glad you were motivated to get the rods out again and my fingers are crossed that you get a fish from the river. Cheers for all your support and I will be back take care ❤️👍🍻

@@KEITHPARRIS2949 hi Keith would be great to meet you and thanks for the lovely message. Time slips by so quickly and what can I say about all the accumulation of stuff it’s a bit overwhelming but have started ruthlessly clearing it out recycling etc. Cheers and look forward to a chat or two in the future take care ❤️👍🍻❤️
Thanks Paul and all the best for your move north. I grew up fishing the Suffolk beaches, but now live on the South Island of NZ and really enjoy watching your videos, especially all the banter🙂
