Bass Hunter, Ferrypoint, 9th-12th July
Posted: Mon Jul 15, 2013 9:10 am
People: Me & 2 others
Duration: Morning to late evening
Tide: rising and falling
Weather: Brilliant
Bait: Feathers, jelly worms, rag, lures
Rigs: various
Results: millions of pollock and coalies, some cod, ling, whiting, ray
Report: Fished E Cork/ W Waterford every day last week. In fact was out in the boat more this week than the last 3 years. Fished over reefs, sand and wrecks. Trolled for bass most evenings.
We got loads and loads of fish. Pollock and coalies came up 6 at a time on feathers. When trolling for bass the lure was only in the water when a Pollock grabbed it.
Surprisingly, Mackerel were very scarce and we only caught 3. This did hinder our fishing as they make such a great bait.
Anyway we had a great time and I look forward to more this week.
