    Great fishing, the bass fishing in Ireland has come on in heaps and bounds over the last few years. I fish in Clare and catching them right up to Christmas off my mark's on lures. Anyone can catch them on lugworm in the surf using regular beach casting techniques, pully rigs and a 5oz grip lead. But the lures are more fun.

    In my experience the cheaper lumps of metal are too dense, and don't sink as slowly as Seekers (or Westin Salty). Poundland Toby copies etc don't cast as well, or fish on the pause as well. I bulk buy Seekers at the season start, and they work out under a fiver. You'll find you don't lose as many as your 'cheap' lumps of metal.
