Dublin Bass

[samo]

just wondering if you think its to early to try a bit of plugging around some of the Dublin marks yet.

Personally speaking I think it's way too early, going to hold off for another month myself and even that's early for lures around these parts, I'll be going after decent size Pollock then, I have a good spot that I always start my season off at and always produces but never have had any Bass until later on when the sandeel appear, that's just my opinion though.

Hi Samo I start my bass fishing the day before the bass ban and start back the day after and so far I have never caught one before and plenty after.

I start lure fishing for Bass in Dublin around the 1st of May and have caught them before the ban on the 15th, but its not till late August or early September that I find they really start to show up.

I agree with Mozza. There is of course always a chance and it depends on much effort you want to put in and how badly you want to catch a bass. But in my experience in South Dublin I would say the later in the season the better. With September and October being the most likely months to catch.

Once the first big peel starts they'll be around. In Dublin bait really is your only option early doors though, my bass lures stay in the bag till post ban unless I'm travelling further afield. Sea trout are a great option until then, the few quid paid for the licence is well worth the sport you can have.

cheers for the replies.

Plenty of sandeel in the water in Dun Laoghaire on Tuesday.

Any time from now can produce in fact April can be the best month for them on the Wicklow beaches depending on surf?

As said above bait is the way to go for the time being around some of my local marks lures will kick in after the ban on the 16th of june all the bait fish should be well in by then
