Sea Fishing for Winter flatfish in England
Спорт
Sea fishing here in Sussex after a storm the shellfish baits really do come in to their own. I think sometimes I focus too much on lugworm as the go to bait. In this video I head for the coast of Hastings and st Leonard’s and try my luck with gaper clams, razor fish and cockles.
The cockles I use are know n as queenies- these are the really big ones
It makes the difference for flounder and bass I’m sure of it.
As always please comment on the video , have you had sucsess using these sort of baits ?
They are very much for specific situations I think like here after a good south westerly blow.

@@SaltwaterAngler I think lure fishing season is about to end in Brighton. I can't go because of the strong winds. I tried slider lures like daiwa switch hitters, pozi drive slider lures for casting in strong winds but weed is another big problem in here. I will try my chances with bait fishing :)
That red meat on the clams looks like it could very well trigger a good take. Also looks like a great day for it. Despite the rain, weather has been really mild for this time of year.

Yes indeed well said as always
Great little session there with some great fish. I always remember using shellfish (especially Queenies) after a storm at this time of the year, on Dungeness & bagging up on Cod. How I wish for those days again.

Nice one thanks Matt! We don't seem to get shellfish washed up here, but plenty of Mussels & Limpets on the rocks. Not seen Clams or Razors unless you go digging for them. Two of us did get out for an evening session last week - one Whiting on the 1st cast and nothing after that. The Whiting don't seem to have arrived here in numbers yet. Way behind with KZread - it's been a horrendously busy year, and just haven't had the time for it like last year. Tight lines, and stay safe & well. 🎣🎣👍👍

I feel they have made a mini comeback last 2 years here
I always use razors after a good blow...its what the bass expect after all

Do you ever touch-leger for bass close in with lighter tackle? I'd love to give it a go but there is a dearth of information about it on KZread.

Yes very much so ! Particularly with peeler crab in spring and live baiting too. There’s a few bits on the channel over the years but I will remember to make more out of it as a technique next year
Nice session Matt, what's the name of your dog?

That’s Nelly ! Aka bean , nellbags , Nelly bean , Nellington - I just call her the dog (which apparently is disrespectful 🤪) she’s a cross between a King Charles and a pug. She’s been great fun on fishing trips
