Co.Wexford Bass Mania

#1 Post by Security man »

People: Me, Tip Tornado & carbon Metal!

Duration: 8.30pm - 10.30pm

Tide: Over the top

Weather: Fine/Clear

Bait: Lug & Peeler

Rigs: 4/0 Pennel Rigs

Results: 15 Bass, 2 whiting




Report:
Fished here Saturday night - not a sniff of a fish all nite (it was flat calm saturday).
Decided to head out again Sunday night and use up some bait.

Checked out the same spot on Sun, there was a small surf going.
What can I say..... craziest nights fishing I had in years :shock: . Rods didn't stop all night!
Was only out about 20yrds in the surf - nothing for 20mins, then BOTH rods got hammered together.
6.2lb bass on the first one and a schoolie on the second 8-) .

As soon as the rods were back in the water, the first one was off again. As soon as I retrieved (hadn't even got the fish off), the second rod was banging. It was like this all night, non stop action until the tide dropped back a bit and I picked up two hungry whiting.
Had another two schoolies after the whiting, then I packed up or I'd be there all night :lol: .
Biggest was the first bass weighing in at 6.2, so he come home for the dinner ;) .

Great evenings fishing Frank
Fair play for going back straight away after Saturdays blank
Great when you get one of those nights when the rods are non stop bang bang
Bait seems to be out fishing the lures at the minute fed up throwing lures are fish that aint interested.

Fisherman's prayer:
God grant that I may live to fish, For another rainy day.
But when my final cast is made, I then most humbly pray.
When nestled in your landing net, As I lay peacefully asleep.
You'll smile at me and judge, That I'm "good enough to keep"!

Wooowwww :shock: That was one hell of a days fishing you had, what a fantastic result with so many bass caught over that time period - I tell you, that'll take some beating, excellent effort, well done.
I bet the other lads from the Wexford area where very pleased to see your report. Now there will be no stopping them.
