Book review: “Bass Lure Fishing - A Guide’s Perspective Volume 1”, by Marc Cowling (who I believe is currently the best writer about UK bass fishing)
It can be pretty alarming what a fishing rod goes through in a cast
The new Savage Gear Savage SGY 2X treble hooks - another new gear post, apologies, but these hooks are really good
The new Savage Gear Sandeel Pencil SW lures - new colours, saltwater rigged, new video up about the lures
Where in the suggested casting weights do lure rods perform the best?
Let’s talk about………….all things braid
Savage Gear Waterproof Rollup Rucksack 40L follow up review after a year+ of use (new video up about how I use a rucksack as well)
I am sure I have yet to catch a bass on a lure in the UK in March, but yesterday morning it felt like every single cast could produce a fish
Why do we like Fuji guides so much? Is it purely because they seem to be on most rods? Surely there are some good alternatives?
Do you ever notice any damage to your braid around where it bends over your finger for a cast? Trying a new braid and seen it for the first time
Using a striped bass style retrieve for some of our surface lures (new video up on my YouTube channel)
From time to time - like last night - the FG knot still amazes me with how strong a connection it is
Anybody else been oiling reels, replacing hooks, tying new leaders, and generally getting very excited about the bass fishing year ahead?
Let’s talk about……….soft plastics and how many of us couldn’t imagine going out without them now
Prepare to be very excited - I have made a video about how I carry and access my lures when I go bass fishing
Any of you here going to be doing more estuary fishing for bass this year?
I’m going to put three rather different pairs of wading boots through the ringer this year and see where I end up
A video review/initial impressions of the Shimano Vanford C5000XG spinning reel
Let’s talk about……….what to wear underneath your waders (yes, it’s men in tights time)
I don’t obsess about “big bass” only, but it’s very cool to hear about serious fish on these Gravity Sticks - this is the biggest bass I have heard of so far
