Fishing Chesil Beach in a Storm! - Abbotsbury 

Thanks to all who have watched and enjoyed this video. I always welcome feedback and conversation about any of my trips however there have been a number of comments that have criticised my decision to fish this day. Those that may be new to my channel, please rest assured that I have a good understanding of the sea, it's conditions and how different factors can impact the swell from my boating experience (where I do the majority of my fishing). I did not put myself or my mother in any unnecessary danger so please just enjoy the video for what it is - a good days fishing! :)

Well done sticking it out,I fish canal,s LOL.😂

Nothing better than a storm,I recognise your mum say hello ,well done and good luck with your channel

You know how to pick a good fishing day. Glad you caught something. Good to hear that you’re going to give it another go, good luck 🐟

All things considered you did well. Thanks for sharing.

Happy days buddy you gave it your best in weather like that and you did not blank good video

I shall be honest I have fished chesil on many occasions in the past as I used to live in Dorset...that was not at it's worse by any means fair play to you both for trying and at least no blank. A good spot to fish is cogden if you can survive the long uphill walk back to the carpark...west bexington fishes well for rays to the left of the carpark about 500 yds walk plus.best of luck next time out tight lines nice video 🎣🎣👍

At least you got out storm or not well done

You should of been there Saturday that was rough. That looks like a mill pond lol

good effort mate

Just listening to other anglers that fish chesil you and your mum need to be a lot further back from the breaking waves when fishing there ! Apparently you get the odd freak rogue wave that can come right up the beach. Not fish is worth being dragged in by a wave! Be careful and tight lines 🤞🎣

Good on ya bud But walk and reel when the fish is beached dont drop your rod on the shingle and walk down for the fish . Respect your gear what ever price it is . Just need some tuition i think on body and rod position when uour reeling in its so frustrating to watch and not in a critical way buddy . A better rod and reel will improve uour fishing just because of lightness compared to big black foam handled rods they are so cumbersome. Well done tho i liked the video🎣🎣🎣🎣tight lines

That's not a storm for Chesil! Fish it when I have to hold your rod as tripod just gets blown away! Use massive leader and drag fish up the beach never go close to the shore line .. great you caught just be very aware off how dangerous it is

To be honest you should never fish in that condition let alone with your mum, always check weather and wind conditions and swell high whenever fish at Chesil otherwise all you get is losing rigs after rigs with unpleasant weather. Any wind higher than 20mph then think carefully.

In conditions like that you really need to be using 7 oz leads and clipped rigs and putting them as far as you possibly can. Also keep the rods up high.

If you have never fished Chesil beach. You should stay away in those conditions. Let me tell you when it's blowing like that and with that kind of swell it's incredibly dangerous. I've been fishing that beach for 45 years I've seen many swamped angler's. It's not a beach for novice anglers in hih swell. Save your trips for calmer weather when it's much safer especially for your mother. If you get swept in your never coming out alive. Be ultra careful !!!!!!!.
