The Copper Coast

The Copper coast in Co Waterford is a wonderful diverse place that was created over 400million years ago along side and with the very same identical rocks found in Antarctica to this day,, the rock formations are just out of this world this stretch of coast from Dungarvan to the west to Tramore in the East an area of Natural Outstanding Beauty and is just a place made from heaven for today's modern Bass Angler,

a word of warning these areas are very beautiful but must be treated with Respect it can be Daunting and Dangerous for the unsuspecting Angler and always fish in pairs,with high Tides reaching the Base of Cliffs at most venues along the coasts so if you fancy a visit get some one who knows the area would be a great starting point

Below is one of our crew for our week in Waterford Trevor Sagan From Jersey proudly sporting his Red Dragon and Van Stall VS100 in a natural Cave Formation that leads the the Bass Bad Lands and Bandit Country on one of the marks on the Copper coast,,,


A well conditioned hard fighting Superb Waterford Bass
Some of the Bass round These parts just Create so much Damage,,,, tough coast and tough fish
This treble hook on Trevor's Lure the Smith Saruna just gave up on a hard fighting Waterford Bass this area is just so special and tailor made 400 million years ago for Bass Lure fishing Be Prepared for any events on this coast not easy to fish by any means but when it fires it is one of them special places that is made for our sport and the scenery is great too and just watch the jersey master with a Irish Crocadile

Rigging a 5" MegaBass Spindle Worm

Well after been asked a thousand times i am about to show how to rig up a spindle worm,this is a way i do it ,a way that will work effectively for Bass and other species,,
Selling these these bits of plastic i feel a little responsible for rigging and application of the worm so first step ,,,
The only way in my opinion is to use a articulated head ,here a 15g cannelle head is used and a vmc twin point hook,,,the twin point enters the worm from directly in front of the join on the spindle worm and pushed to the mouth front..........




The hook is then placed into position within the worm and configured

Pull the Head of the worm back with your thumb and forefinger to expose the eye of the twin point hook,,the plastic of the worm will compress on the twinpoins and hold steady in position
Attach the articulated head to the twin point with your left hand and close up
The head of the worm will still be compressed ,,work the rubber slowly up the shank of the hook and over the articulated connector this expands easily and you will find it all fits together very neatly indeed ,a small blob of super glue could be added to attach the worm to the ball lead but there is no real need for it with the twin points retaining the plastic,,,,,
The final Product with the worm sitting nicely against the articulated jig head with the added strength of the lure been retained by the twin point hooks,,,,


This Method of rigging is great and i have been using it for years on its day it will out fish any method out there,rigging this way single hooks up to 3/0size and variable lead heads from 5 to 50 gramme can be utilised,,therefore there becomes hundreds of permitations of hook sizes heads and not to mention all the plastic baits,,,interesting

Unlike a fixed jig head,,the articulation of the lead head gives more movement to the full length of the worm or shad right up to the lead head,,,,in my view a more effective way of presenting a plastic bait on a jig head

Hope this has helped a few lads out there with rigging and application and dont hesitate to contact me for any more help

Breakaway Gataride Tip Of The Season

For a couple of Years now i have been fishing with what i think is the Finest Bass lure around the Megabass Zonk Gataride so much so i have now started selling them through my company Megabass Lures UK Ltd,,
Here:::
http://www.seabassfishingonline.com/lures

The decision to sell the Megabass Zonk Gatarides was not taken lightly by me simply because of the fragile diving vane that these lures sport on the yoro yoro or hi pitch versions ,,
to Newer anglers to our sport paying £22.95 or even more in the case of certain Tackle shops out there and we all know who they are,, for a lure then rendering it use less after 2 casts if caught up,,even Tackle Dealers do not mention the bib on these lures with the exeption of veals that state to be carefull in the 2010 mail order catalouge,,
People who know me, do know that i like to think out of the box especially when applying a lure fit for purpose as in my opinion the Gataride is the Best Bass lure around and now for me its just got even better ,,
this is what i do for my Customers at Megabass lures is look into problems and solve them ,,not sit back and claim to use the lures and bank the fat profits ,,,,,,,


step 1,,

Get a feel for the movable bib on your Gataride Zonk


Step 2 ,,

turn the Gataride on its side and inspect the underside of the movable bib and you will see 2no nodes Protruding above the main stopper These make the Gatarides bib a total lock situation


step3,,

File off the nodes flush with plastic stopper

step 4,,

with a steady pressure Press the bib back on itself if it feels too tight file a little more off and try again

step5,,
presto!!!! then with a click the bib will dis-locate ,,this neat little feature as far as i am aware is the first time this has been Talked about in the Lure world Certainly in the UK


A safety feature that will protect the bib and your investment in the Lure
Then Click the bib back into the original engaged position and then the Lure is Tuned For Action
Brilliant,,,,,,,,,,
And Remember you saw it here first on my blog
