West Waterford 16/06/10

#1 Post by declan65 »

People:me

Duration:2hours

Tide:rising high at 9

Weather:glorious

Bait:lures various

Rigs:

Results:5 bass up to 6 lbs




Report:
Ban over, so time to hit the water. Arrived at rock mark at 07.15, weather beautiful and conditions perfect. First cast had a follow right up to the waters edge but no take... looking good then... about 6 or 7 casts later got hit by a silver fella :D only about three pounds but put up a hell of a scrap.. breaking the surface and running parallel to the shore.. landed ,photo and returned.. blank avoided.
Fished on over the next 2 hours with a fish every twenty minutes or so,biggest just short of 6 lbs. Kept one for the pot.. he was deep hooked and didn't make it.
Photos later when I get a chance. Happy days ladies and gents!!!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Well done Declan, fantastic result. Great report and pictures - although they are making me slightly jealous :mrgreen: but I'll get over it.
You didn't waste anytime getting out there once the ban was over and your just right too, congrats on a great session.

Thanks all, surprised Cortaz didn't beat me to the first report (sorry Arthur) :wink: , all bass took feed shallow no 9... being using that lure for ages.. missing a treble at the back and pretty battered at this stage but still very effective :D
