Re: Dublin Bass 09 July 2013
Well done. You have to put the effort in to catch on a lure in Dublin. At least I do! But if can find them you can catch them...Lovely fish.

Re: Dublin Bass 09 July 2013
I've had a couple of good sessions on lures in South Dublin but I've also had a fair few blanks especially in early summer. I haven't really got it figured out yet. But in my experience (South Dublin) it seems to fish better towards the latter end of the season. But I have done more fishing down South so am no expert. If anyone else has better info or disagrees on the best time of year let us know!
Congrats again on sticking it out and catching your target.
