the pure persistance of them is great, great video.
Y'all know me. Know how I earn a livin'. I'll catch this bird for you, but it ain't gonna be easy. Bad fish. Not like going down the pond chasin' bluegills and tommycods. This shark, swallow you whole. Little shakin', little tenderizin', an' down you go. And we gotta do it quick, that'll bring back your tourists, put all your businesses on a payin' basis. But it's not gonna be pleasant. I value my neck a lot more than three thousand bucks, chief. I'll find him for three, but I'll catch him, and kill him, for ten. But you've gotta make up your minds. If you want to stay alive, then ante up. If you want to play it cheap, be on welfare the whole winter. I don't want no volunteers, I don't want no mates, there's just too many captains on this island. Ten thousand dollars for me by myself. For that you get the head, the tail, the whole damn thing.

2010- Sea Trout, Codling, Pollock, Coalie, Whiting, Flounder, Doggies, Plaice, Dab.

Best bit of angling video i have seen in ages. Drifting (but not specifically) one relies on touch, vision and possibly the unquantifiable element of intuition. One can only imagine the fantastic fish that came for a look , tasted and for whatever reason didnt take.

More footage of a dab. Not as good but interesting how the codling and doggies took a look.

Could try this?????

Great video but a pity it didn't have one of the mackerel strips without a bead to compare the difference.
