fishing one of Englands most famous beaches.. 

Wonderful memories there Kerry. Cod may well return and I have a feeling we are in for a cold winter too.....

Some fine memories Paul happy days despite the cold

Yes it’s still a beast of a venue. No bass today but I’ll be back, thanks for your appreciation glad you enjoyed it today.

Welcome aboard mark - plenty more videos on the channel, mostly bass bits. It’s a bit special that dungeness that’s for sure !

Thanks Martin most anglers can relate to the environment being a big part of fishing it’s a great venue for all round outsideyness!

That’s good to hear in many ways the aim of this video was so people may rediscover this mark again

Great, thank you

Love it ! Thanks Jon

Hi Nigel thanks for that, yes freezing in the morning turned into a spring like day later on with water clearing too ! Happy days

Thanks john glad that came across

Much the same here !

Right there with you David and thanks as always for your comments.

Yes the power station there makes the place nice

Thanks Ian , appreciate these comments.

Thanks for watching

It is and thanks for the comments

Ahh love this ! Lots of doggies this year

@@SaltwaterAngler we are new to fishing. Got inspired by your video. Never heard of Dungeness before until saw your video about Dungeness fishing Mark.

It’s well worth reading up on the history of this place , Les moncrieff and others pioneering beach fishing with his springheeled long rods in 1960s .

Good tips there will check those out Ant

Thanks Trampster, most nights in Hastings are mad ! It’s a real beauty Dungeness for sure

@@SaltwaterAngler Hastings! 👍😂 I'd parked the truck up there one night years ago, and headed to the nearest pub in search of a meal. The Landlord explained that he didn't do food, but it was the last Thursday in the month, when all the pub Landlords went around and visited the other pubs. He said "if you want to come with me for a beer or two, at some point we're bound to arrive somewhere that does food". You can guess the rest! 🤣🤣

Yep that’s Hastings for you

Go for it! I’ve made a playlist just for the lure fishing now so that might help

@@SaltwaterAngler Cheers mate!

Thanks Lee

No worries , thanks for watching I must give them a try to eat t, thanks for watching and taking the time to comment

Yea it’s a bit out there! , I always think of those winter 70s cod sessions

Lovely thoughts my man thanks

Cheers Iain ive lost three this year being a camera idiot

It’s great I’ve had one every trip ... except this time but there are very big fish that run here maybe at night

@@SaltwaterAngler good luck😉👍🎣🎣

Hi Danny ! when fishings involved its amazing what little legs can do ! The boils is another option but I’ve never done well there.

@@SaltwaterAngler I haven't been to the boils in years, normally stick to the boats, not been at all this year, closed for a while during lockdown, bought time I had another trip down there.

Oh yes we rely so much on those tidal movements cheers that’s a good way of thinking

Ha ! Yes it’s worth reading up on big Les moncrief and early cod fishing here it was like dream with the start of modern beachcasting techniques

I shall have a read this evening,,

I’ve never had one either , but tended to head west - lovely to get a good fat dab !

Had my best cod from Worthing pier. 11.5 lbs.

Hi James , ha I’ll be. Up against it when I’m away from home that’s for sure. Some top marks along here looking forward to going again

Got your sea legs? you can rent a boat From the seagull tackle shop, Huge congers been caught on them trips

Hi David thanks , the rod I got as a stop gap is easy to cast , wobbly in the mid section (just like me) two rod rings have bust and the eye fell out of the tip. It actually casts o.k but has a real limit of power meaning you put everything in to a cast on say a half pendulum and it won’t get any more spring from the blank. However the bight detection is actually reasonable with whiting really rattling it. It suits a 4oz much better than a 5. It would be suitable for a stop gap or a new angler but more enjoyment comes from spending just a little bit more I think with Italian conti rods of around £100 being a sweet spot for choice and updated carbon

@@SaltwaterAngler That's perfect. Thanks for your very helpful and prompt reply. That wobliness was kind of what I gathered from watching your casts with the rod. Mine arrived in the post with 2 ring liners broken so I had to replace those rings from the outset. Ive only fished a short session with it on my local small beach. It seemed ok, but I was glad to get the opinion of a seasoned angler on it. I might consider upgrading if I catch the sea bug! Thanks again. Dave.

Great memories MrMaro! I even thought about trying for the macs it was so summer like towards the end !

Still good ! Thanks for sharing

It’s still there Kevin with my pliers buried under a tonne of shingle!!

It was that long ago it's probably closer to Australia 😂😂🎣

Woof indeed , also we never used to get them on lug either !

@@SaltwaterAngler Great channel,like your calmness when fishing 👌🌱🌱🌱💕

Appreciate again thanks , those are a bit far of my patch I’m afraid but I might head down a bit closer when the Ray move along in March.

@@SaltwaterAngler i apricate the response most youtuber`s don't respond, well hope to see more great content. keep well =)

Thanks for that , I’m glad the association got that sorted. Sounds worthwhile

It's a shame there's so many whiting ...cause there's some cracking fishing if you can get through the whiting

It is , yes

Whiting eat everything even bluey on 8/0 hooks

We have been using bigger hooks for them recently and last year size 4/0 just about filtered out some bigger fish

Yes will do thanks for that! Your not the first to mention it I think I can “normalise”sound so will try that

Thanks , it’s a SLOSH ! great value strong with reasonable casting ability

@@SaltwaterAngler thank you! I remember looking at one of those and still undecided to go with that or the 7ht. What would you recommend?

Ahhh the 90s !

Hey, are you related to Mo?

@@Ukmongoose3 yes my brother

Small world eh? I remember going fishing with you at Barcombe reservoir... you had a convertible Golf at the time, I think.

@@Ukmongoose3 hi, blimey that was a while ago, looked at your profile, was that a holiday in Scotland or are you living up there now, i am on f.book same name if you want to talk more,

No worries let us know how you get on

Worth a go

Thanks malc it really is a very filmic place as well as having huge fishing potential

Why worry about covid go soon fishing is allowed

@@jameswilson8820 I'm 350 miles away mate! annual holiday is next April, but thank you for the heads up, did'nt realise we can still fish! Cheers!

@@SaltwaterAngler A pint of cider at the Pilot and a dressed crab from Richardsons across the road will be my first port of call lol.

@@malc380 I was fishing Saturday just gone down at ramsgate pier along with many others👍😁

Good spot ! It is indeed a 700d with a prime 35mm lense ,nd filter. However the iPhone 11 does a lot of the work in videos now too

@@SaltwaterAngler cheers Matt, an STM lens I guess? I have a couple of Eos' and want a video lens, my USM's and Hypersonic Sigma's are noisy, cheers Neale

No a usm it is noisy to be fair . It’s hard to use a dslr manually when fishing so it gets most of its use for b roll

@@SaltwaterAngler Surprising as it doesn't sound noisy on the vid, you need an assistant to shoot with the EOS, that wold be awesome, as I'm impressed with the performance, so will have to try mine with the lenses I have. Cheers Matt, stay safe.

24mm wide angle rather !

Thanks Chris , the way it works is I let RU-vid choose the best place for ads , will look at that and see if I can sort this out.

@@SaltwaterAngler cheers matt. I really do enjoy you videos as you probably know by now a sussex man now living in fife. So great to see the old haunts. Gutted to see you loose the bass. Great fish to catch. Tightlines bud

Cheers Chris the adverts should be sorted now.

@@SaltwaterAngler fantastic bud

Walk from the car park or get a key as a member of dungeness anglers.

Yes! Get in there .... I’m after a conger this month

You ask a good question, there is a theory that every single sea fish would take a lure at some point with flounder,cod from the beach, gurnard and plaice being some I’ve had. However I’d be amazed to see a whiting take one ! Maybe a lugworm shaped lure ? Great question

Yes you ask a good question, even quickly hooked and unhooked in shallow water ? I do t know a pouting would be fine for instance . Swim bladder size ? Answers needed and a good question Gary thanks

Good spot , unfortunate these don’t survive when returned 😧

purchase a drone and send the whiting out several hundred meters ?

Thanks Derek any excuse to get a drone and I’m in ! It will be my next present when I’ve saved up all joking aside 😂😂

@@SaltwaterAngler look forward to seeing this:)

Thanks MrTench I’ve never really considered the weight hitting the fish. I’ve always thought the hook as causing the most damage. Thanks for taking the time to comment
