A double leg amputee after an explosion now sharing my fishing adventures on the land & Sea.
I do Sea fishing here in the UK primarily on the boat but also the shore and the occasional bit of freshwater fishing as well.
I hope you find it as enjoyable to watch as I do making it for you 🍿 🎥
Enjoy. 🐟🎣

I’ve had really bad luck with the camera. I ordered one from and it came from the UK, it worked for 1 trip. Then the camera wouldn’t turn on. The vendor sent a second one and it worked for 3 trips. Now the camera just doesn’t boot up and Westin just doesn’t respond. You can’t troubleshoot the camera either because there’s no software to connect it to. I’m still waiting for Westin to respond and help me out.
@@Lineaycarrete Well in a way I am glad you have mentioned this as it’s something I am going to mention when I do the actual review video of the camera as this was just the set up Video but… I have had the same issue with 3 cameras now, it’s not just a one off clearly and looking online someone else had had the same the problem on Amazon. It’s a brilliant designed camera for the job but unfortunately I think there is a design flaw in that it doesn’t work long due to the internal switch breaking that turns the camera on I think far to easily.
@@theamputeeangler I’m glad I’m not the only one. It’s definitely a design flaw. Hopefully Westin reaches out to me to send me a new one or help me fix the issue. I’m a content creator and I’d love to keep using the camera. By the way, since you’ve used the waterwolf, have you had any issues like this? I thought of buying it but it seems like it’s the same people making the camera since it’s from Denmark and similar design. Thanks for your feedback.
@Lineaycarrete I know some of the guys at Westin they have told me they’re going to respond to you here but if not reach out on Instagram to them! So the guy that makes this one is the same guy who made the water wolf he just jumped ship as i understand it and redesigned this escape cam improving some of the flaws. The Westin is a better more sleek design by far and lighter than the water wolf but if it’s not going to work then it’s a problem 😂 I have a full review of the water wolf on my channel but this video was taken with it 👇🏻 Crazy Clear Underwater Fishing Camera Footage - Bass Pollack & More kzread.info/dash/bejne/poCozpuFg9Pgcbw.html
@@theamputeeangler thank you 🫶 I’ve wrote them on Instagram yesterday and their support email.
If you don’t mind me asking is it illegal to catch them
Hey 👋 it’s not illegal to catch them and fish for them but it is illegal to keep them they must be returned alive 👌🏻
@@theamputeeangler ok thanks I will subscribe to you
@@AngryMonkey227 Thank you I appreciate it 😃
Thanks for interesting video. Can you see the images in real-time or do you need to take the card out and view in a laptop ?
Hi mate, no you cannot view real time with this but you can do a drift and then use the supplied card ready to plug into a phone and or iPad and look at the footage so not instant but pretty quick if you need or want to
@@theamputeeangler OK thanks. I have often wondered what is down there so might get one. Thanks for your videos
Hi Ben, just been looking through your back catalog of videos and come across this one. You mention trying squid. Have you had any joy with squid or Cuttle for Turbot? Thanks Steve.
Hello mate how are you doing? No it’s not somthing I have tried yet as honestly the time of year I fish for them round here Mackerel and big Launce are plentiful and haven’t had the need to try but a big white strip of squid would work as it’s so visual, they also have been caught on bright white lures so I have no doubt it would work. It’s trying it and having the confidence
@@theamputeeangler Thanks Ben, all good here thanks and I hope the same with you all. I will give Squid or Cuttlefish a go on one rod next time I get chance to fish for them. I will let you know.
@@stephenkerr1002 they’re out there now on the usual marks I shall be having a go myself again soon. Good luck 🤞
You're using beautiful light jigging rods and reels , do you do any jigging?
Yes sir indeed, lots 👇🏻 Slow Jig Fishing Lands Donkey 15lb+ Pollack On Inshore Wreck kzread.info/dash/bejne/p4Guy62Pprq8irg.html
Thanks Ben, it’s great to see a company giving you something to test and review. Gives us an honest opinion. 🐟🎣
I will always give an honest opinion on stuff regardless mate, the full review of this is coming but I’m not one of these channels that will just say everything is good or the best as I hate that myself. Honesty is always the key when it comes to product reviews regardless of whether I have been given them free or not mate!
Brilliant informative video Ben, think I’d be too scared to lose it though 😂😂🐟🎣
Thank you mate! I am very selective with where I put it and it’s rigged with a wink link so if the trace snags up that should snap and get the camera back but it’s risky Buisness but you need to gamble to get the good footage
@@theamputeeangler I must admit the underwater footage is incredible 👍🎣🐟
Thanks for the info. 👍
Anytime and thank you for watching 😃
Excellent stuff Ben… needed one of those Thursday to see what the hell snapped me up 😂😂
Oh no did you get smashed up?! Any ideas?
Not a clue … little bream rig with small mackerel strips … over but of rough ground west of sovereign and it took off like a train .. thought it was a snag at first but then it kept nodding and taking line … snap 💥
Im definitely setting up a camera next time out
@Esoxlucius155 holds lots of Pollack and Cod on that ground that would make a meal of light traces but as with fishing we shall never know eh
I want one now😂
They’re very good bits of kit to be fair. I will do a full review shortly on them.
Excellent presentation, superb video. I am the same as you mostly sea fishing from the boat. I know this is somewhat a variable conditions question, but up to what depth would you get away without the light?
Thank you! Appreciate the feedback honestly i do 😃
Well presented Ben Good job mate.
Cheers Wayne much appreciated
Nice one Ben well put together A very informative video.👍
Thanks matey 🙏🏻
Cab be use on jig ?
I wouldn’t use this one for slow jigging mate no.
caught and released OVER 30 BASS on rod and line in a 2 hr session recently, bass were all over the incoming makerel shoals of the reefs near Brighton. prefer 3-4 lbs fish for table.
There’s been a lot of Bass about lately, I get them out my system early on when they’re offshore and then like to target them on the floats through the summer but they’re great sport and nice for easy days fishing close in!
I'm off on Essex coast Sunday few about down here at mo .love the channel, lovely sea fishing .
Thanks Jay appreciate it! I only fish for them a few times a year as they’re good fun on the lighter gear but there is so many about at the minute from what I am seeing!
Superb video, learnt a lot from it
Appreciate it Mark thank you 🙏🏻
Informative and educational, will use this on a turbot trip in a few weeks
Thank you Steve! Where you fishing out from? I shall be get into full swing for them again shortly here
@@theamputeeangler from sovereign harbour Eastbourne
@@stevennippress6762 ah that’s where I am based who you on with?
@@theamputeeangler hopefully on the boat called deep blue
What a great trip for you all Ben, loved the banter between you guys too 💪🐟🎣
Thanks mate, if you can’t have fun at sea then it is pointless 🫡
😂😂😂 your mum what ? 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂 I will have to ask him what the rest of that was as I didn’t know either 😂😅
looks like you had good company and a great day welldone ben and crew 👍👍👍👍
Thanks mate! Hope you’re well!
Good one Ben, Hopefully I'll get out there next week 👍
Hopefully the weather plays ball I’m ready to get back out now after a few weeks off with my newborn!
@@theamputeeangler Congratulations on the newborn. Hope that life goes smoothly and not full of sleepless nights. Getting out there on the water certainly beats changing nappies.😃 regards Trevor
Great video mate,always fun to share the moment with friends, didn't remember me doing the dance,think I was more excited than fu 😅😅😅
Shows how happy we were for him mate! Will get that Turbot trip mapped out this week and planned. Il check tides and stuff towards end of the month early next and get somthing down….
😂
Wow what a day you had - great sized Pollack - well done!
Cheers Alex and great to see you again after so many years all be it under shit circumstances mate
@@theamputeeangler I have a spare 360 camera with underwater housing if you want to give it a go! its stabilised so you can follow the fish around - bet it would look awesome! Yeah shit circumstances but good to see him off and catch up with old friends :)
@alexhunt123 I have a few underwater vids on my channel mate. You should find the Bass ones from earlier in the year it was crazy. The 360 I haven’t got or used yet as some of the settings I have seen make me feel sick watching and it hasn’t appealed to me but for the underwater stuff I think it would have a really good use I shall have to have a look 👀
@@theamputeeangler You record in 360 then export the flat view you want to see - so its repurposed :) - yeah my Mrs cant watch any 360 "vomitcomet" she doesn't do boats either!
Thanks to Ben and John for their efforts, given me days of great fishing time and time again! Brilliant video like always Ben, reminds me of what a fun day that was!
You’re welcome mate and it won’t be the last one we have don’t worry!
Was absolutely buzzing! Always ready for the next round 🎉🎉🎉
Wrecks seem abit slow this year, maybe I need to look harder😂
@@TheBassRacer The slow wrecks are always slow, but the good ones are always good it’s just knowing them 😂
Mate that was so good when Fu got that double, the excitement and elation around the boat brought a massive smile to my face.
Thanks buddy, I like to keep it real here and showcase what fishing should be about and that’s having fun with your mates catching nice fish! We worked hard to make sure he got that so it was a big sense of relief and joy when he finally did 😂
@@theamputeeangler100% spot on.
😮💨 ??? Straight Down The Edge Mate 💯👍
Well done mate cracking fish 🎉
Cheers dude 👍🏻
That's not a donkey...! That's a horse! Well done you!
Cheers buddy really appreciate it 👌🏻
You mentioned that the distance between snoods is 8 inches. Watching your video the distance is at least 3 feet.
Hey Jay The dropper snoods are about 8inches but nothing is approximate it’s not that precious but the bottom hook link is abit longer as I like it flowing abit more that one but this was an early vid I made il have to watch it back and if it’s not clear il remake it 👍🏻
@@theamputeeangler thanks for the response. I'll definitely try your rig as it increases the catch rate also three baits will create a bigger scent trail. Thanks again for your video.
Great little session and a cracking Pollack, I do love my slow jigging and very much looking forward to getting out on the wrecks again soon 👍
Thank you! I’m hoping to have another crack this weekend if the weather holds for us here!
Cracking fish mate.👌🏻
Thanking you sir 🙏🏻
Awesome Ben Magnificent Fish Catching fish like that, you ought to take your boat for a service every Month.🤣🤣Great video.👍
Thanks mate. Proper nice to get a fish of this quality on our summer inshore wrecks these ones are normally a deep offshore winter type fish so yeah made up with this. Thanks for watching ☺️
I want to buy PENN ( USA ) Conventional Right hand operative Reel which can be fixed under the rod . I am from Bangladesh. I want ur suggestion about a good model of PEEN Reel .
Hi there! These one or the Penn fathom are good reels but it all depends on what type of fishing you’re doing?
@@theamputeeangler The main problems are all this Reels Left hand operation. I need one which must be Right hand operative and that must be fixed under the Rod for angling in the Lake and River .
@shahiduddinchowdhury3380 They come in Right hand too sir. RH = Right Hand LH = Left hand Look for the RH when ordering it will be on the part number of the reels to show either right or left handed 👌🏻
@@theamputeeangler can you suggest a good model of PENN Reel.
@shahiduddinchowdhury3380 The Penn Fathom 2 level drag
Ben, great footage, love being able to see the entire rod and watching the hits. Good stuff!
Thank you mate, I have been working on getting the angles better to catch all that once last time you mentioned it mate and I have cracked it now unless I come out in a rush or knock it! Thanks for watching mate as always 🙌🏻
What is the slow jigging rod you use in the video, Ben?
@tonypetras7356 it’s a custom build one mate that John in the vid with me built me 👌🏻bloody nice it is
What a fantastic fish 🐟 Ben, well done 🎣🎣.
Thank you buddy
Cracking pollack quality sport 👍
Thank you! 🙏🏻
Awesome fish Ben but I think the one John lost was bigger 😁😁
So do I, but it's always the one that got away that gets us coming back for more
Haha oh we know…we will get it next time round it’s ok 😂
Well done mate on ya pb. Mega excited fishing a new wreck & why we love sea angling. 🤙
Thanks mate, it fell short of the PB but I thought it was knocking close but a great fish either way!
You looked quietly happy that he lost that first fish, you came back well with the donkey pollack well done, a good day on the water
I’m never happy when anyone loses fish but it’s a case of we laugh or we cry sometimes and i assure you the same happens when I lose one 😂 The digging doesn’t stop all day 😅
I laugh when we get those crash dives, we can't stop it, just watching the faces after is priceless😅
Glad you can have fun catching and targeting pollock.
