Yes theres weed around but not very much.Can say that only top water lure will survive the condition,not even a shallow diver,but only in the cove,if u fish from the rock to the sea there will be no prob with the weed.The bass we cough are from the the small cove very close to the shore,had to use simple pennell rig 'stupid paternoster' with with very short snood.Btw,we fish with light spinning gear from the rock wch is quite high,but still lost a few rigs tho.GC,what bait did you use for the bass last time??Crab???
