Catch Fish from Chesil Beach - WEST BEXINGTON: SWYRE

One of a series of videos on Chesil Beach in Dorset, UK.
This video covers a daytime session in May targeting plaice at the shallower end at West Bexington, (Dorset, UK). The session (21.05.24), was fished at the White House mark, Swyre. Unfortunately plaice did not make an appearance, but a blank was avoided with the capture of a gurnard and a couple of decent smooth hounds.. Nevertheless, I cover the rigs and techniques employed in order to try and catch plaice at this location.

    Brilliant result with the hounds Mick,just goes to show that we always use pulley rigs for hounds but a 3 hook paternoster can catch anything ..Top Angling

    Yes - I mainly fish with small baits and hooks; but still get a fair number of decent fish. Fishing big baits and big hooks, you'll increase your chances of getting better fish, but are unlikely to catch the small ones, so are more likely to blank.

    Hi Mick ... It just goes to show that fish can turn up, even when you are packing up to leave ... Extending your session proved worthwhile, even though you didn't catch any target plaice ... 2 stonking smoothies would make any anglers day ... Well done. 🐟🐟🎣🎣 Ps. I think Dylan,from 'Frugal Outdoors', has purloined your hoodie ... It has 'The sole man' on the back of it ...

    Vid with sole on its way soon! Sometimes we give up when the fish are about to start feeding - always worth that 'last cast'.

    It can be a bit hit and miss. I'm not keen on vids that refer to venues as 'a mark on Chesil,' or 'somewhere on the south coast' etc..

    Yes - but you can still park there for free in the evening - just have to time your sessions around that.

    Well done Michael, just goes to show that you are always in with a shout while you have a bait in the water. I think I may have packed up long before your capture 🐟

    Yes - you never know with Chesil; it can suddenly switch on just when you are thinking that nothing is going to happen.

    Chinook was the highlight of the video for me, very low pass from it. The gurnard you caught is a grey gurnard.

    That's right - these were OK though and I wouldn't take smooth hounds.
