Report:I thought the warm weekend would have brought a few bass in close to the shore. If it did I didn't see or connect with any. In fairness though I didn't time the tides very well. I fished the first 2 to 3 hours of the flood which means the bass could've arrived as I was leaving. I headed because daylight wasn't on my side. I know night lure fishing is meant to be productive but I was on my own and I get scared on my own.

Tight lines,

was on a bass mark last night myself 3 wowos one flounder and about 10 whiting ,was actually glad to get a few dogs to put a bend in my rod the next three weeks should see the start of em john i think this mad weather has fooled us into a bass frenzy ,on the plus side it was a lovely evening and it kept you out of the pub
i got two gents walk up behind me last night out for a walk with their dog ,didnt hear them till they where 6 feet behind me talk about scaring the bejasus outa me!!!!!

Amazing the sea was so calm there - I was bait fishing yesterday afternoon on the south coast and was finding it difficult to hold bottom even with 6 oz grippers !!!!

all u can do is try john it was the same on saturday night in wexford fished from 7 till 3 in the morning not even a bit between 3 of us but they will come

nice looking bit of water there. hard luck

hard luck john. that looks like prime bass lure territory man. just a pity the fish did'nt pass by when you were there man. ahh well, always next time

John, after the previous few days of Easterlies I think that the bass may have moved out a bit. I always find that the fishing in Waterford becomes less productive when the wind goes easterly.

Thanks for all the comments lads.
