LRF Fishing: Mackerel on Lures at Brixham 

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it. Brixham is full of allsorts. One of the best places in the UK for sure.

Thanks for the sub. They are here all year. Have caught them all the way through winter. Check out my Winter League Campaign Playlist. You'll be surprised what you get all through winter down here.

​@@LRFandHRF you lucky man I wish we had them all year lol, I've got a drop shot rod for my perch fishing I mite give it a go on my piers with some ragworm see if I can find some wrasse

I have no idea how to tell even once they are landed. Not sure there's a way to tell?

I'd say 10-15m at low water? Maybe? I normally cast out, let it hit the bottom and half way back wind it up.

@@LRFandHRF do you reckon with the conditions we’ve had recently it would be worth going there tommorow and giving it a try?

Welcome. Thanks for watching. Dont forget to subscribe. Could be my furthest south subscriber I reckon 😉

Glad it helped. Down this way they are always here. Just sat very deep so have to find them.

Thank you. Its like that down there all year round. Obviously even better in the summer

Thanks mate. Knew I wouldn't be boulder hoping just yet so spent time leaving the time-lapse running. Adds a perspective of the amount of time passing I think. Can't beat a good mackerel fight on the right gear. Feather on a broomstick have never appealed to me. But on LRF it's next level. Love it

Superstitious nonsense comment right here

Which bit?

Thanks. I enjoyed this session. I use Major Craft Dangan Braid on 6lb and 8lb. Casts well and don't need heavier for what I do. Don't forget to drop a sub as there will be plenty more content of mackerel this summer

It's one of the best places isn't it. Glad you liked the video. Plenty of others from down there on the channel too

@@LRFandHRF I go every year. I use my carp rod for Bass and mackerel fishing. I've fished all over Brixham. The berry head platform. Over near the Battery grounds on the rocks. The breakwater. Sharkham point So many great places to fish. Beautiful place to fish and relax. Thanks for sharing mate. Tight lines and don't let the arseholes who cast over you make you move. I enjoyed watching that thanks. Will check out your other video's. Top man 👍👍🎣🎣

All very good spots. Don't forget to Subscribe. Plenty more trips planned down there

Its fine in most places. Its a nice clear bottom there so was all good. Fish light and you tend not to snag up anyway. He who dares and all that

Thanks Darren. Good luck if you go. There were plenty there. Just very deep down. The rest if the fishing was pretty slow

Yeah. But there's always one. I'm not one to care too much about idiots so just moved on. Was a great morning still

Thank you. Sounds bring some nice atmosphere don't they. Don't forget to Subscribe. Lots more to come

Thanks. It's amazing when it's like that. Can't beat it

Thanks Jim. Plenty more on the channel and normally upload weekly. Thanks for the sub.

The post production is superb also. You could teach the professionals a thing or two

Thank you very much 😊 not bad for just using a gopro and phone camera 😀

Thanks mate. Whereabouts are you? Bet there's allsorts if you hunt then down

@@LRFandHRF Essex haha, I've done a few videos on Essex LRF, it's hard as it's all really muddy around here! We do have some gobies etc!

Thanks Jack. In June you'll catch fish all day long. The tides don't matter really. You can always find something

Flood is always better to fish up. I am Brixham born and bred.

I always use a fluorocarbon leader on the end of any braid I use. 5ft to 7ft depending on the rod length. I personally don't like the knot going through the eyes so have the leader short enough to cast. If that makes sense

@@LRFandHRF Thanks for the quick reply. Which fluorocarbon do you use/strength etc?

Whatever I have at the time really. But normally have 5lb, 8lb and 10lb for the three set ups. Plus 25lb if I fancy a bit of Wrassing on the Heavey Rod. I find sea fish don't care what leader you use but Freshwater fish will spook more from a leader

Oh. How were you fishing?

15-30g hrf, 3" weedless slug-go through the weed, Westin 360 over the weed, surface plug yada yada. Lol.

Wow. Normally something to be found down there. Not great tides though

All the gear and no idea lol

The seals got busy in Brixham since the 80s. Cant really complain but its. a fact that they have decimated the pollack, wrasse, bass, dab, small plaice and flounder stocks.
