Report:
Got out a few times over the last week but hadnt got a spare minute with access to a computer.
Last thursday went out into Dungarvan bay at low tide, water was fairly manky around the oyster beds with lots of bits of weed floating about. It was a bit cleaner around the main channel, tried a few casts but got nothing. :( :(
Tried the slip at high tide and water was filthy but there were a few bass jumping, got one of about 2lbs before I got fed up with the weed.
Friday was very calm so I went to an exposed rock mark, there was a bit of sand there with nice water movement so chucked out a couple of lug.
Got a nice lad of about 5.5lbs just before I had to pack up after about 90mins

Saturday was a washout, went to clonea for a look but it was full of weed. Tried clonea for an hour on sunday but at that stage wind was coming from the northwest :cry: and there was a poor surf :cry:

Tried clonea for an hour yesterday around 6pm.
The south easterly was creating a nice surf but there was still a fair amount of weed about.
Got 2 bass of 2-3lbs on first two casts but then nothing for an hour so called it a day.

Is it just me or is the weed seem to be getting worst every year on the south coast :?: Well done on the bass I know what its like trying to fish when its about. Well done on the bass

Well done Figs.

Hopefully when the strong winds die down the weed will disappear. Last year was a washout for me as regards bass fishing and I am hoping that it will be better this year...... or else I'll take up golf!!
