#1 Post by declan65 »

People:me

Duration:7.45-8.50, 18.00-1920

Tide:HW@06.45 and 19.00

Weather:Fine dry settled

Bait:lures

Rigs:

Results:2 bass, 1 per session.

Report:
Been out at various marks during the week without any luck, so a plan was hatched for a pre work session. Headed off to rock mark 1 for what was to be about an hour and half session up to 9 o'clock. Fourth cast, bass on, good scrap on new setup with braid, landed 55cm bass in good nick. Fished for about another three quarters of an hour then time to head off for work.
Finished up work at 5, quick bite to eat and headed straight out again to rock mark 2. Fished for hour and twenty with second bass arriving mid session, 50 cm. Headed home job done for today and recent string of blanks busted.

Well done Declan, they are brilliant. Waterford seems to be the place to be at the minute if you want to catch a bass 8) I might head down that direction on my next trip instead of going to Kerry. I have yet to fish that area but would love too sometime and give the lures a run out. Great report and pictures.
