What’s the fish that got away that you still think about?

Almost every angler seems to have that one unforgettable escape. What happened when yours got away? Was it a huge fish, a snapped line, or a mistake you still remember lol ?

Are all sea fishing floats massive?

I'm still a bit of beginner so sorry if this is a stupid question, but I like to do a bit of float fishing off the local pier with small hooks, but all the sea fishing floats I see are the big polystyrene cigar shaped things and sometimes it's hard to tell if you have hooked something, what should I be looking for in a float that will work in the sea? When I was younger I used to river fish with pencil floats, but I imagine they wouldn't work very well.

Second time out (LRF) I'm hooked

Friends trying to get me into fishing rivers but I'm really taking to the LRF

Had the most fun at the rocks pools trying to catch the little blennys

Anyone confirm that second pic is a ballan wrasse? Lovely colours

New Scottish youtube channel

Hope it's OK to share.

I've been creating videos of my fishing adventures the past 3 months or so and just looking to grow the channel a bit.

The kicker being youtube is changing their monetisation criteria at the end of January, after which I don't think I'll ever be able to make a penny to help pay for fuel! 😂 So, it's 1000 subs by Jan or bust!

Appreciate any feedback on the videos, and hope you enjoy some of them.

Thanks! ​​

Is this possible

I am going to hayling island for a few days soon and my heaviest set up is my 10-20 gram rod and a 1000 size shimano fx I am not worried for the gear to get broken from the salt as the set up is used for making the pets run about. So is this set up strong enough for sea fishing or will I need to invest into another setup
