Hooking a BIG fish 13 miles out on an inflatable boat
I often see people asking how far out can you go on a SIB. I don't think there's really a correct answer as there are so many variables that must be taken into account but the main ones are kit, conditions and competence.
In this video we steam 13 miles from the Cornish harbour of Looe to the infamous Eddystone lighthouse.

Just watched the film as I'm thinking of buying a sib, love ❤️ my fishing, live in Berwickshire and fish from Eyemouth, watching this has been a great help for me as it's given me more confidence instead of the charter boats, and a smashing guy who comes across really well , great stuff, thanks 😊
Lovley video mate You got the balls 12 miles from shore 🍻🍻🎣🦈🦈
Some distance out! Well done I plan to head 6 miles out this year in my dinghy.
Great video. Gutted for both of you to lose what seemed to be a good fish. Love the stumpy rod though. Great to see you got out on a cracking day and it certainly calmed down 👍
Good video mate
13 miles out WOW
Well done Oban great video shame about losing the fish but it happens and you handled it well! I lost a big bass I even saw it coming up and it spat the lure I was gutted for days! What do you reckon it was that took it? Looks like such a good place to fish maybe we can both go one day 🙂
This is why when you go out on a bait bigger poles better reels and stronger line fact
Cracking content mate.....loved it......😍 Also.....what lighthouse was it ?

If I'm only driving a short distance I stick it on my roof rack but most the time I inflate and deflate. Thanks for watching!

I launch from the slipway at the millpool car park. This can only be done 2 hours either side of HW though.
Porbeagle shark 🦈 caught one on baited feathers while fishing for bait about same depth , so a lure not out of the question..but I suppose its one of those you never know 😁
don't blame the crows..that's rooks making that din
Interesting! What size is your inflatable boat and why type? PVC, Hypalon and how much and what is the size and the engine type and power and all the gaer you have with you to make such a trip?

Hi, Liking your videos very much. Just bought myself a Honwave T38. Could you tell me what you use for filming please. Not sure what to get, go pro etc. might need to use a selfie stick sometimes. Can you recommend anything, what do you use. Cheers Mal

The go pro is ideal for SIB use!
Oban, what’s the weight of the Hydrus? It’s very tempting!

I believe its around 60kg so quite manageable for one person with the right launch wheels

I've used a Garmin striker 4 plus for the past 3 years and can't fault it for the price. I would like to upgrade to a bigger screen at some point.
Great video mate it's the lost ones that always haunt you, could have been a big coalie but more likely a tope or blue, Love the set up too looking at something similar this year for myself

Blue sharks can’t tolerate the sea temperatures at this time of year on the sw coast.

I think if it was any species of shark there would be signs of fraying on the leader, it was only 25lb fluorocarbon. Whatever this fish was it snapped the line.
