well done

Well done , nice fish . A good size for the table , I would have kept it as well . Rob from Cornish kayak & shore fishing , advocates returning them over about 6lb as the amount of eggs a female produces is huge compared to smaller fish . I haven't had much luck with plugs in Cornwall , most of mine are on soft plastics or SG seekers. But I do think it is more a matter of confidence in the lure you are using. Have you tried filleting them , skinning then cut into goujons , coat in breadcrumbs and frying ? Enjoy with a mayo dip.

Hi, thanks for watching. This lure was about 8-10gr ( I’ve changed the treble hooks, so they’re lighter now) and 9cm long. I usually have 8lb or 10lb braid on as main line and 6lb fluoro carbon as a leader. The main thing is to balance your equipment. If you go light, go light with everything. Regardless of the weight, you want between 6 to 10cm lures if you want to catch medium to large sized bass.

Take a look at the Nash dwarf range. I bought a 6ft and an abu max baitcaster, use it all the time when travelling from Tenerife to Scotland. Don't be put off by its stiffness and "feels like a stick" nature, can lob a 18g toby 50 meters + easy and the baitcaster takes nearly 200m of 20lb. Really small and light setup for £100 all in. It saved me in the summer .. fish pulled over my 10ft shimano catanna on to rocks and 3 of the ring linings fell out. Fixed now .. that's a cracking rod as well but two piece so 5ft.

That's not the case, just to say I'm about to get a 2nd Catanna and a 2nd black max as an identical back up for my favourite spinning / light bait rig. The damage occurred when a 2 ft doggie slammed the unattended rod hard onto some large stones. Landed the doggie.
