Lloyd set out for a session targeting Smooth Hounds but it didn’t go as he planned. A tricky session that left him wanting more. Tune in to see the tactics used to target these hard fighting fish.
Great video guys. Refreshing to see the attention given to the fish end of the line, not the other end like lots of others. Might head off back that way Sept/Oct for a trip down memory lane. Tight lines both
Cracking session Llody great video as alway mate as ive said before this is the best shore angling channel on RU-vid mate keep them videos coming buddy
Amazing Lloyd buddy !! what Josh an i have learnt from you and Phillip,well ?? Welcome to another episode of bandit fishing uk today im going to get what we came for lol!!well done best on youtube!!
Hi Lloyd back in 80s and 90s when I fished for Cardiff specimen hunters that rock was called the chair and it was amazing for hounds and cod maybe give it another try later great video congratulations 👏 welshmen in crete
Hi Simon, yes I was on the chair and it’s a prolific mark but fit some reason the fish just weren’t in front of me. Very tackle hungry that day. Thanks for watching
Well done on persisting and finding the fish Lloyd! 🎣 Fished Aberthaw West last Saturday and only 2 Hounds showed but that’s most certainly the nature of Hound fishing, here one tide and gone the next! Love Donats used to fish the Cliff next to the slipway over high water for the Eels
Hi Butty, yes it is frustrating finding the hounds last few years we’ve been blessed with the fishing and find them most places. I’ve been eyeing up the ledges to the side of the slipway for eels. Looks nice and deep.
@@BanditFishingUK yes I enjoyed it, I was fishing 2 rods 1with worm and 1 wiyj crab, I had 5 frozen peeler left over from a previous session, 5 casts 5 hounds.
lloyd the sea looked perfect on that trip mate , the channel is hard fishing at the moment mate init good to see a few fish . take care on those rocks mate
@@BanditFishingUK hi lloyd i reckon if the water stays this clean we may see some good hounds coming in and plenty of dogs and some better size rays but they may be stay in the deeper marks mate
Hi Lloyd just watched the video again 👏👍and realised you lost 8 sets of tackle 😲😲 time to change your rot and bottom system or should we call it the snag atrackters!! 🤔🤔
Hi Simon, thanks for watching the video twice. I have full confidence in the rotten bottom clip I use, it’s a simple method it an upside down bait clip. I made 1 change to my rigs during the session and didn’t lose another end through the whole flood and that was simply changing the hook pattern to the dongle rig. It produced all 3 fish fir me on the day.
Be interested to see how you get on with the dongle rig iv used it off and on for the last 3 years with mixed results 🦈🦈🎣🎣 found it best for Ray's as it stopped deeper hooking missed alot of hounds when they weren't really having it
Interesting to know, I’m unsure, not having a point hook makes me unsure with it however if it stops me losing gear so I can fish rather than sort new shock leader out and new rigs it could be a benefit. I’ve had 3 hound sessions with it and missed 1 Run from 5 takes
How'd you find those tronix rods compared to the t900? T900 user myself, nearly bought one of those instead of my second. Went with a matching pair in the end. Just curious really.
Hi Darren, I’ve sold the t900s and bought the Tronix rods instead that should tell you the quality these rods really have!! I’ve found it to be fantastic. More powerful in the top section with great bite detection.
Hi, Really good rod. In fact so good I sold my century t900s to buy a pair of the tronix competition GT. It’s a rod that competes with the big names on the market.
