1st Bass at last
This report is a bit late, anyway decided to head for Cunnigar on Thurs night last, full tide was around the 9pm, so I was set up and ready for 6.45, with a bait rod on Rag and a spinning rod using shads,after 20 mins put down the spinning to rebait , and had a gammy cast into the surf, I was just about to reel in when bang went the line, and landed a 2 lb Bass. My daughter took a pic on my phone, but lo and behold it never saved,also lost all the other saved pics,returned the bass in the hope I might get a bigger fish, but it did'nt happen, returned on Fri night with big expections only to blank

Re: 1st Bass at last
Congratulations on your first Bass dude , there is nothing like seeing your first ball of silver landed beside you,
I hope it’s the first of many for you, remember to be careful of the sharp gills and the very painful spikes this little fella has for defence,
You can take my word for it when I say they can hurt you as they did me,
