Thanks Lyn It was a nice relaxing session, I’ll be doing more float fishing in the future for sure 👍🎣🐟

Haha I hope so Ash 🤞🎣🐟

Thanks Greg It was a nice relaxing afternoon watching the floats bobbing around 👍🎣🐟

Thanks Steve Haha yeh quite possibly 😆 I wish I had taken footage of the skylarks, they were singing while fluttering upwards to about 20m height, then free falling back down to the ground 👍🎣🐟

Thank you 🤩👍🎣🐟

Thanks Ray It was nice to relax 👍🎣🤩

Ah thank you Steve Much appreciated 👍🎣🐟

Thanks Paul I’ve never done just float fishing before, I’d normally spin at the same time. I found it very relaxing, will definitely do again 👍🎣🐟

Thanks Hugh It was good to be out fishing and catching 👍🎣🐟

Thanks Ray The small ones are just as rewarding to catch 😊 and it was great being away for a couple of days 👍🎣🐟

Thank you It was an enjoyable session 👍🎣🐟

Thanks Adam 😊 I do glow in the dark now though 😳😆

@@fishinghinny 🤣😂😁🤪

Thanks Thomas Hope you’re well 👍🎣🤩

Thanks Brian 👍🎣🐟

Thanks David Yeh it’s been a good few weeks since the last vid, I’ve had a couple of blank sessions so didn’t have much footage to make a video. Glad to break the blank on this trip 👍🎣🐟

Thanks Barry, I was happy to catch anything that day 😆 too many blanks lately 👍🎣🐟

Thank you I enjoyed the float fishing, it was very relaxing and entertaining watching the floats bobbing around. I’ll have a look into the Holderness Coast and plan something down that way in the coming months 👍🎣🐟

Thanks Chris Yeh, it was great fun, doesn’t matter what size they are - great fun watching the float bouncing around 👍🎣🐟

Hi Stephen Yeh, it really did cheer me up, the simplicity of float fishing 👍🎣🐟

Thanks Robbie I’ll make a note of this for next time I’m up there 👍🎣🐟

Haha, yeh I was a bit chilly. I had a home made chicken curry after that session, I’d cooked it at home and froze it ready for the trip 👍🎣🐟

Aw, thanks Mick, very much appreciated ✋🤩👍🎣🐟

Most welcome. If u ever fancy coming over for Pollack gimme a shout

Hi David I set the drop to different lengths during the sesh to fish different depths, the shorter drop seemed to work best for that mark. Cheers for watching 👍🎣🐟

@@fishinghinny sorry. My tunnel vision. Of course it's also the depth of the water at a Mark that determines how deep you set your stop knot.

Yeh it’s best to experiment with the drop length, tide height and fish depths change through a session. Tight lines 👍🎣🐟

I’m well thanks 🤩 Yeh, St Abbs, what a place, will definitely be back there again this year 👍🎣🤩

Thanks Dev 👍🎣🐟

Thanks Gary It’s worth a look up the power station even if just to see the enormous size of it. You can walk right around it on the coast path. The water intake is near where I fished, the warm outlet it on the south side, both fish well in the warmer months. Loads of parking, drive past the first car park, turn right and drive right along towards the water outlet - I think it’s marked as coastal walk parking. Some nice walks around St Abbs and Coldingham too. Tight lines 👍🎣🐟

I'll definitely have a look up,hoping for some better warmer weather by then lol,fished st abbs and eyemouth in the past,fingers crossed for a few fish,thanks for the pointers 🎣

Tight lines Gary 🤞👍🎣😆

I hope you got a few fish when you were there Brian 👍🎣🐟

Hi Brian For the big rod setup, I have the Sonik Black 13’ with a Penn Battle 3 which is a 7000 size reel. For lighter river and estuary fishing I have an Abu Garcia 13’ Bass Rod, which I use a Shakespeare size 4000 reel. And for the little spinning rod I use a 2500 size reel. I find these sizes balance nicely to the rods I’m using. Tight lines 👍🎣🐟
