The biggest bass I have seen this year. So far…………….
Heading home today, some tough bass fishing conditions but some pretty epic pollack fishing
Isolation over, driving to Ireland today for some more co-guiding work, new Penn Slammer IV reels are starting to appear in the UK
Interested to see what this new sub-£150 Savage Gear SGS8 4000 spinning reel is like (I was nothing to do with its development so it’s brand new to me)
It’s amazing how much better I am at fishing when I can’t actually go fishing! Isolation………….
I’ve put together a short film of our recent guiding trip in Ireland, loving the great memories!
It’s scary how quickly a good fishing session can go wrong
Some of the gear that worked and didn’t work so well in Ireland, always interesting how different anglers and guides do things
Heading home this morning, still can’t work out where time goes when I’m in Ireland
Bass are great, but we’ve used this glorious weather/trickier bass conditions to also do some awesome pollack fishing out here
First group has left, second group arrives this afternoon, I didn’t quite appreciate how much I have missed all this
Amazing first day and a bit of guiding with our first group, damn it feels so good to be back out here and I get to call this work!
At last, driving to Ireland for co-guiding work, apologies to our clients in advance because I’m very excited! Anybody up for one of our trips in early November?
Bumping lures along the bottom in a fast current - is there a more exciting hit and scrap in bass fishing?
I’m no reel technician, but the first thing I do when my reel suddenly sounds “raspy” is oil or grease the line roller
We have to go and find our fish, and I would suggest that making a call which then produces fish is one of the biggest thrills in fishing
A night fishing session on Friday threw up a bunch of questions
You can only use one colour of lure (hard, soft, surface, metal etc.) for all your bass fishing for evermore - what's it going to be?
Let's talk about “paperclip” style lure clips because I am hearing about some anglers having issues with (my favourite) Breakaway Mini Link
In my mind it’s a side wind that kills “feel” the most (slightly nerdy Monday morning?)
