Irish Bass (part 1) first 2 days

 A overnight drive from Essex picking up Adrian in Kent and a visit on the way in wales just over the welsh border to have a cuppa with Steve Hound dog thanks for the Tea and cheese sandwich mate ,,then look what turns up Mark Padfield ,he was on and off for the trip but with a few yelps from all of us it was great to have him along for the ride,,all was now set with the weather looking good  for a very interesting trip to Ireland,as usual the with them two on board on this trip the Craic will be mighty!! 

Early Start off the ferry on to the amazing wexford coast
Arrived at one of my old marks with my Mates and set them loose ,,fill your boots boys this is Bass Heaven Adrian and Mark were off like a shot and boy was it worth it these lads make my life real easy for me the old man they can work it out for themselves the sun came up with a sunrise i will never forget and within the hour Adrian had bagged this 74.3cm Bass a nice 9lb and returned to scrap another day well done mate,,,,

74.3cm Bass for Adrian
 Double Trouble ,,just great when the Lads nail a pair together not big but what a happy picture two mates with a pair of bass ,,no arguments when the Bass are coming thick and fast,

Double trouble love the reflections

Yours truly with a Bass taken off the top ,my next post will be showing the lures we have used on this trip ,some surprises in store and thats a cert,,and some more rather tidy Bass


4lb Bass off the top at high tide up the estuary brilliant early morning fishing with your mates
 Mark with a fine 6lb Bass off the top hit the lure ar 100mph  this guy is a master of the art of topping second to none in my book some realy large bass will come to some of Marks topping methods in Ireland ,simply off the scale,


Mark looks pleased with this Bass Next cast after the Photo shoot i felt so sorry for the guy a potential double lost off the top but hey theres another day ,,

Another fine 6lb fish for Adrian and again off the top ,Adrian and Mark have opened my eyes to fishing off the top in Ireland god after all those years !!! well i will have to put up another report as i have said with more fish and Methods,,

Bye for now ,,and more to come soon,,,,,,,,,
