After some experimentation and little to show over recent weeks I suppose it was always going to be a matter of time!
Had a nice session - 5 fish, best being 68cm. All caught on soft plastics - Black minnows to be exact - but I think it just happened that I started with a minnow and did not change to another lure more than the minnow making the difference.

Re: Bass Run - Easter Weekend
From what I gather they are going to appoint an Irish distributor. However, such is the demand I think they cannot supply much to Ireland yet. I would imagine you would be best to get them direct from Fiiish's site.
