Thanks for watching mate

Thanks dude

Thanks mate

Thanks mate

I think it’s about 850 lbs of fish

😂😂 I’m getting better on them big boats lol took me 15hours to puke this time 💪 😂

Pollack can go over 20lbs haha big fish I think the biggest we had was round 12 lb

He’s got fish in his blood that lad haha legend

Running ledger with a long boom and 3 lures that are a fathom apart 👍

😂😂

Hey mate we fished from sun rise to sun set so I had the camra on and off a lot , when i make these commercial video I like to show how the lads do it more so then me being on camra , sort of documentary / vlog style video , it gives people a better understanding and feel for what they do 👍

We landed in Cherbourg there’s casinos there mate

❤️❤️ thanks for watching

Cherbourg

Cherbourg

Yup 😂💪 the fish was rolling in after that 😂

Nah, they're not the same but same family and if cooked they taste the same. If you're not sure what you are catching the easiest way to identify is to check lateral line on the fish. Coalie has the line straight along the body but pollock's curves from tail upwards. Hope it helps 👍

@@koolaevah Cheers mate! You are my future go-to guy for identifying fish species.

Could be 👍

Lots and lots of fish lol

Iv never been to be honest but I can look into it

@@SMASHFISHING might be a cool vlog...

don't think so

on the charter boats, most dont have ice so they run sea water through the catch to keep cool

No they don’t , they just fish

Cherbourg

Your very rite mate I see a lot of people criticizing small fishing boats an small trawlers but they don’t know how big the super fishing boats really are ! One of the huge fishing ships could take as much as the hole guernsey fleet in a single day 😂 it’s insane to think about

I’m not going to say as it would be disrespectful to the lads to be honest , if they want to say in another video they are welcome but I wouldn’t say without there permission

Cherbourg

I wish haha

I had a hook go into it past the barb so I ripped it out as we were 35 miles from home 🙈😂

@@SMASHFISHING that always hurts bud but im glad you had fun and took us with you

I didn’t take your comment down as I dont take any comments down , what ever you said must of been picked up from RU-vid , this is the way people get there fish fresh , I’m not going out to criticize how these boys fish I’m simply making the video to show the commercial side of fishing , in any fishing there is good and bad , also people have different opinions on fish management, I’m not hear to try tell any fishermen how to do there job or criticize them for anything as this is there job and how they feed there family’s , even if I agree or disagree with how they do it , I just want to film a side of fishing not many get to see , some people will love some video of it and some they won’t an I understand that fully and everyone is entitled to share there opinions 👍

@@SMASHFISHING thanks for the reply! I wasn’t having to have a dig at you. You do a great job with how you do things. Just shocked me how they did it 😅

and what way do you suggest, beating it over the head until it stops flapping about, have you never seen the commercial trawler fishermen deal with fish

@@johnkay7354 I wasn’t talking about other fishermen. And yes beating it over the head until it stops flapping is much better than gutting it alive. It’s not like they have too many fish in one go to do it.

@@Mar-nc1om they were pulling them in 3 at a time, they cleaned and packed when the boat went around for a new drift, ive fished on charter boats for over 30 yrs and i never seen one fish get its head crushed, its put in the box when caught, and the deck hand will gut and clean them, some are still alive,

Guernsey don’t want as much as the lads catch , also France pays way more almost double so it’s well worth it to them

Yeah 👍

They ice all the fish , just when 4 of us pulling up fish it’s hard to sort them quick so we catch loads of fish for 20 minutes then sort them an repeat

@@SMASHFISHING I seen that after the video rolled on for a while✌🏻 I was too quick with my question!

Time thing I think?

Great question mate I thought it would come up , it’s to do with the fish being in perfect condition, hitting them on the head can bruise the fish fillets , also it’s a time thing as these boys need to catch a lot of fish to cover cost of boat and then catch enough for there wages so the quicker the better and the quicker the better quality an price they get , it makes a huge difference

why would you knock them over the head before putting them on ice, they've already been gutted and cleaned

It’s the fishes swim bladder , they can’t take the pressure change it’s called barrel trauma

Welcome to the club , it's exclusive 😂😂😂

In what way are you shadow banned mate ? I’m just curious as I see your comments

No it’s an exstra euro a kg for fish caught the same day 😂 not 1 euro a kg for the fish mate the fish sells for £5 a kg an landing 400kg plus’s of fish it starts to mount up

5£, not enough. Why they don't land in Diélette?

@@SMASHFISHING lol i was gonna sayy!

@@frablo4645 Dielett is not a customs port. Since brexit non EU boats cannot land there without clearing in a port like Cherbourg.

CRAP

No it’s an exstra 1 euro per kg for fish caught the same day , pollack goes for £5 a kilo
