The ban is over......

Well the ban is finally over here at last
and after a long wait i can finally fish for bass
up early on the 16th around 4 in the morning
met up with a friend of mine Ger Doran and
 set about to find some fish.
Ger fished a spot before i arrived and got on fish of
about 4lb on  chartreuse feed shallow.
When I met up with him we moved around to several marks
which were fairly heavily weeded and the water was extremely coloured
so we moved on try find some clear water
We found some clear water eventually and started with ome feed shallows
then Ger switched to a patchinko and i think it was his second
or third cast and he was into a fish of about just over 5lb it
put up a good fight on Gers light setup he landed it however

Gers 5lb fish





























So after a quick snap back it went to be caught another day.
We both switched to top water and got a few boils but no more
takes unforunately so no fish for me but i'm happy enough to see
them being caught plenty more time for fish.
On another note my  new lrf rod a solpara sps-s702m from major craft
arrived in the post today a seriusly light piece of gear
Casting weight of 0.5g to 5g










































































































This paired up with a 2500 exage loaded with Sunline Rockfish pe and 4lb flouro leader.
 That and some of the new lrf gear i just recieved from
www.jackslrf.co.uk  should provide me with lots of fun over the coming months.

Tight lines

  1. Cracking fish from Goran there, just weight till you use the solpara on bass mate then the fun begins lol. If it is anything like the zalts solid tip you will have a very sensative piece of kit with backbone when it is needed.
