This pic goes back to 1990 20 years ago this year,,,even in them days i was nailing a few bass on lures ,,i remember this day very well,,the night before the maccie were in nailing eels and sardine against the shore all we could get was the maccie around 200 if i recall it was mayhem,,we decided to come back at first light and low and behold no eels and no sardine they had slipped away in the night with many dead left on the shore,,, so i slipped on my mother of a lure ,,the best in its day the yo,zuri crystal minnow,,orange,,this was the lure of the day and to be fair is still around today and fishing well,,,and theres no kidding with that picture above the proof is in the pudding
a 4lb Bass from North Wales

Love it Gee, can see you singing along to George on your Walkman whilst fishing. Some great bass there, I knew you'd been lure fishing for a long time but that clearly shows how much experience you have.
Gee its good to see youve aged gracefully (never knew youd had teeth & hair lol)
great pictures and cutting edge in those days
more of the same please !
My god I could fancy you all over again with hair like that lol
