South Wexford Bass & Cod
Mon Sep 27, 2010 11:55 pm
People:Me Fein.
Duration: 3 sessions, 1.5hrs each - Thurs, Fri and Sun night
Tide:Over the top
Weather: Dry, Rough enough thurs, calm Fri and DEAD Sun
Bait: fresh peeler crab
Rigs: 4/0 pennels
Results: THURS: 1X Bass (@1.5lb)
FRI: 3X Bass (1.5lb & 2lb 2.5lb) - 2X Cod (2lb & 1lb)
SUN: 2X Bass (@2lb & 3.5lb)
Report:
Gave up reporting a while back, was getting too much Bass
....
Been off the Bass trail for a while, so was delighted to get back to a such good result - well worth reporting! - plus a few cod in between. Pics are a bit dodgy, as theyre taken from the mobile - wasn't expecting much so I hadnt brought the camera
Thursday was a bit choppy after an earlier blow, with a bit of weed mixed in - but a bass still managed to sniff out the crab
. Billy sent on his way for another day.
Same mark again on Friday, except this time with a 'nearly' full moon... I've never had a bass on a full moon, which always led me to believe they dont feed... WRONG! - 3 large bass in quick succession, Bang, bang, bang. Nothing for 20mins, so retrieved the first rod to go home - lump of weed turned out to have a 2lb cod hidden underneath - not so much as a fight from him. Jumping all over the shop for the photo, so it was blurred and unuseable - plus the second rod was being nailed, with a smaller codling; one kept also. Best nights fishing in a long time.
Had 5 crab left, so decided to steal an hour on Sun night. Same location, same spot, except the water was like GLASS (didn't hold much hope of catching ANYTHING TBH - plus a bright moon). Same result - soon as the tide turned, two nice bass. The bigger lad never even rattled the rod - slack-line, swam straight in and up the beach and in
. This guy weighed a ton (prob full of crab) and tipped in at 3.5lb- the smaller lad followed about 10mins later and although lighter, seemed to have a lot more Red Bull in him than the first 
Was a few mackrel 'fishermen' (
) around earlier in the night on the three nights, but no-one caught anything...
