People: Me

Duration: 19 h 00 - 20 h 00

Tide: low at 17 h 00

Weather: nice, but cloudy

Bait: ragworms

Rigs: 2 hook flapper (size 2)

Results: my first bass ever !!!




Report: Wasn't sure if I should report that one, since everybody seems very caution with bass reports, especially around Dublin... but I couldn't resist reporting my first bass ever. So there it is. Sorry for the poor quality picture : wasn't sure how to handle the fish and wanted to put it back to the water as soon as possible.

Thanks everybody for the kind comments !

It wasn't a big one : about 35 cm long.

I wasn't really fishing for Bass. Well, I always have secret hopes of great catches, like all of us... Only 5 minutes after my first cast, something really powerfull was knocking at the other end of my line. I couldn't belive what was happening until I saw that plump silver fish landed at my feet.

I guess it was the luck of a beginner, but now I've got a problem : I want more Bass !!!
