The Gathering ,,, Tiemco Night Raid140 slim


Got this rather smart lure sent from Japan first impressions of the Tiemco was the similarities to the IMA SF-125 a fish catcher over the years for me and a lot of others out there the Tiemco has subtle differences though  this is one that is going to be tried out in Ireland from Thursday morning another new lure but the pedigree looks good you must agree

A Bibless floating minnow that dives to 60cm with a stabilisation feature for rougher water,The Night Raid will wobble and roll, so the wide and flat side flashes. The SCS (Stream Control Stabilizer) will provide a great lure movement with from dead-slow to fast retrieving.  Most effective is dead slow for this lure,,



 

The Tiemco 140 slim is a handsome looking lure long casting with the standard weight transfer system

  

The 140 slim comes in a smaller version 80mm HERE and all the colours in the world,so this lure will be tested on the Bass in Ireland soon should be interesting i have also got some soft plastics to try out  Andy at Jacks LRF kindly sent some super weightless worms and shads for me to try and with the weather looking good i simply cant wait to get stuck in,,

Weight less ,well not quite but after some great reports will try these out ,,thanks Andy

Off Fishing

One of my favourite marks fishing with a great friend Mick Boland will hopefully be meeting up with Him next week for the first of a few trips to Ireland before the year is out so roll on Wednesday 12th

 Adrian Rodgers here with a nice Bass around 8lbs on the XSlayer,,this fish fell for the trotting method last October on a Ireland Trip hopefully we may get a few like this one next week,,we are thinking of a short stay in Wexford then Down to county cork but it all depends on the weather,,

 Night Fishing a few years back with Henry Gilbey thanks for the Photograph that night Henry i was on bait with a light bass rod a great way of fishing, Rolling a 2oz lead at 80yds down a estuary with that stunning crab bait,,

 Pumping for a Cod on the Green bank in Waterford hopefully with my trips in November and December a a few Cod may show up in the Estuary

 Here again is Mick with a fine Bass again on the Xslayer the fish took in bright sunlight under his rod tip!!!

 So back to my home place in November and December/January and i cannot wait for a bit of Fishing its been a while but to the latter of this year a few decent Bass should show,,,,,,

Tiemco sprat 130 simply the best,,,

Mackeral red / pink belly Tiemco sprat great looking well made Bass catcher

 I got one of these little gems in Sand Bora colour quite a while ago and i have been impressed ever since so when i had the chance of  a few more i just could not resist the superb shape and colours of theses handsome and well made Bass catchers below is the silver Bait ,,,black back red belly this lure is not the best caster out there has the weight transfer to assist ,the rolling action is simply the best with the unbreakable bib ..

 Below the Pink Tiemco Sprat a colour that in any lure is one of my favourites well made and a joy to fish with  a lure that grabs the roughest of water ,rolls and dives between 60cm and 90cm makes life a little easier,,

 I cannot believe with all the Hype with lure in the world of lure fishing today that this sure fish catcher has not been picked up by a distributer or tackle shop owner,,,,
obviously,with no reports of this  fantastic lure and  because you cannot get this lure in the uk today in all the new products available it seems a shame that tiemco take a back seat ,,,or the tried and tested only !!!the lures to go with,,,,

this lure is,,
one of my go to lures in my box and thats for sure,,in September and October and the back end  one of the best,,,

I  got three of these great additions to my lure box for less than £40,00 delivered from europe  now that is what i call value for money for a proven  fish catching lure,iam not selling these lures but if you want more info catch up with me at cazgee@gmail.com

Putter to Popper

Sorry have not been on for a while been away to Turkey for a week and my sons golf has rather taken over my life of late i would just like to share a little of this with you,,
Arron is a member of the Warren Golf Club in Essex and his form this year has improved so much,,
The Warrens under 18s club championships Arron finished 3rd overall for the season a brilliant result he is now Playing a handicap of 20 from 30 at the end of last year,,
his latest escapades in the golf world include 3rd overall at the Lincoln under 18s open championship at Carholm golf club in front of family and friends what a brilliant day out and Carol and i thank all that attended,,



Great result for Arron net 66 for third place and a few bob for his troubles



Following this came the Essex  Essex Golf Union under 14s championships at  mayland golf club i took two days off work for day one practice and the day itself for this premier Essex U14 Golf competition,and wow!! did Arron make them clubs sizzle powering drives in excess of 240yds, his approach play and putting were simply a joy to watch,finishing 2nd overall with a fantastic 65nett was more than Carol and myself could handle on the day with Arron winning the much coverted Fred Stillwell silver medal below.

 

All your Mum and I can say is well done Arron We are so proud and keep up the great work with the golf you have a lifetime in front of you a brilliant achievment for a guy who is only 11 years old.

a great day at maylands golf course

In the meantime i was itching as you do when you have that fishing bug in you so heres a few pictures of our last trip to Chesil and yes it did the trick the fishing was not too hot but the pictures came out great,,

Essex Megabass

Had a brilliant day down the black water estuary yesterday when it all came together,no wind clear water and the Bass were playing Ball for a change 14 bass in all and all returned safely to the estuary my favourite kind of Bass fishing is Estuary fishing for Bass and in my experience the hardest to work out and in the county of Essex a part of the world where there are thousands of bait fishermen but lure fishing in the area seems to come a lowly second  best to most anglers due to the harsh conditions  and poor water clarity,,
But,,
When the conditions are staking up in your favor and you are capable of working out the conditions even in the not so lure friendly county of Essex the sky is the limit the fish are there for the catching,,heres a few snaps of my day to remember in Essex,,,

clear conditions were the order of the day a rare occurrence in the blackwater



edome lazer edonis X92 we call it the alien eye and certainly worked in Essex



some nice bass started to show

well fed too plump hard fighting blackwater Bass

one off the top the lure is bigger than this little scrapper but next cast  a 4lber,,,



An Essex scrapper on the way in ,,,




at the end of the day i had a great session on the calm waters of the blackwater and for some moments in that evening i was back in my home place of SE Ireland the bass on lures and fishing was that good, all i can say is dear Blackwater and Essex Thankyou for sharing your bass fishing it is superb

Reflections of Chesil

Left home at 12.30am to pick up Adrian and fly down to the mighty Chesil Beach meeting up with Graham hk fresh in from the East, sadly the Master of Chesil Mark Pad couldn't join us on this occasion was away with the family but with some great advice from him we went on for a Bass Trip on one of the most untamed beaches in the world ,

Chesil is a Daunting and dangerous place and certainly not a beach for the unwary and inexperienced ,make sure when you ever go down there that you are prepared with water and the essentials for a long trip also physical fitness is paramount,the picture below shows the intense heat that can roast you on the beach Graham has scarf face protection and of course reflective blue Costa de mar sunglasses just the job for bright conditions

 On a long stint over on the beach we will take kettle ,water and mashing facilities,plenty of fire wood over there a frying pan ,tin foil wont go amiss either

 Camp Bastian2 we hung around for the weather to darken off bright conditions and calm were not working ,the Bass were not playing Ball at all so we decided to hang around for the tide there will be a chance with the cloud gathering,wind picking up from the south on the gathering tide,,

In the mean time, i went Rubbish spotting i cannot think of a place on this earth that gathers so much rubbish from drift wood to computer hard drives ,,Brilliant there are loads of flotsam to explore i found fishing floats,bungi rod straps,crocs,torches,nets,highlighter pens,ballpoints and much much more its an education

Eventually we made a move from our temporary camp and managed a few fish off the beach, well Adrian and Graham hk had a couple Each off the Top here's Adrian with a 4lb fish on a Lucky Craft gunnish the Bass were moving but the water conditions were crystal and Bass tendered to just sniff at the lure and turn away,,the guys did well to catch at all ,

On reflection we had a great day out even though the fishing was not on song,,We know Chesil Beach but if you want to Lure fish around this area the man to get hold of is Mark Pad he is the Master off of this unpredictable,daunting most beautiful part of the world you will have the time of your life with Mark Guiding you but remember Mark Operation is 100% catch and release,,,
some would say Chesil is the 8th wonder of the World,,i know i would,,

Wexford Bassing (the old magic called love again)

Just got back from a trip to Ireland with Carol we were out at the house ,shady nook ,yet again working and sorting a few things and checking the place out got to keep on top of things while we are building the M25 enabling works for the 2012 Olympic Games  only a year to go now!!,,
well the fishing decided to call for us so down to a old Mark of mine and Bingo the old magic called wexford hit again on a secret place of mine,,
Brilliant and yes you have got it we just love this place but at the moment Finacial issues wont allow me and my family to return to the shores we love so much,,,YET!!!!!!!!

The Z Claw get them from Cian at Absolute fishing  what a lure off the top first cast this lure will defiantly improve your topping

Carol with a nice 5lb fish on the K2 Brilliant just love fishing my home place and she does too she was expecting a night out ,,check out the manicure,,,ha ha took her fishing instead ,,now thats my type of woman!!!

The Bass kept coming for a couple of Hours with fish off the top (z claw) middle(K2) and Bottom the plastics just love trotting the shads down the weed strewn shallows

what a superb lure the anasago bora flashing plate is accounted for a few this Target them from a great lure outlet  topwater lures uk 

Plastics came in as the water got lower this is what estuarie fishing is all about ,reading the condition of the ebbing water total of a dozen or more fish up to 5lbs from bass marks that i have fished for the past 10yrs and i still dont see anybody around,,, simply Magic
