Re: Signs of life
Very similar to a session i had the other night. I dropped to size 8s and still couldnt connect with whatever was cleaning the hooks. Might have been crabs but the nibbles seemed a little heavy for them. Managed 3 coalies around the 40-45cms and a doggie tho.

Re: Signs of life
Nice little session last night Seanie
, definite improvement over the last few sessions, plenty of activity, pity about the slackliner missed earlier in the session
, can only get better now





Everyone should believe in something; I believe I’ll go fishing.

Re: Signs of life
Great to see the bass back in Seanie.......winds that are even a bit Southerly always seem to turn them on.

Re: Signs of life
Glad to hear that you have had some success mate, even a 3lb bass is way better than no bass at all, and God knows there has been long enough since there were a few about. show up in numbers shortly. Keep the faith Sean and I am sure they will arrive.
