Weather:20mph wind wsw

Bait:lures

Rigs:

Results:1 bass

Report:fished a rock mark tonight. the water was very weedy so i didnt expect much and it was too windy for plugs. ended up using a dexter wedge(28g) and it got absolutly hammered on my third or fourth cast. the fish almost straightened the split ring and one of the hooks on the treble, Easily my biggest bass but had no means of measuring it. i would guess at 6-8lbs (conservativly) and back it went to fight another day. pm me for the mark. i really have to start bringing a camera fishing

good to hear it going for a lure - sounded like some take

Sweet. :D :D :D
I would say the adrenaline rush when that big bass took the lure was unreal. Definitely a better buzz than using bait on a beachcaster. Must get started lure fishing myself - think I'll wait for this crap weather to pick up first though.
