Bars Of Silver

[Wedger]

Sunday saw us strike out to find the fisrt bass for Otter and our first attempt this season.

 

We took the option of an early start to find bait as we anticipated the maccy would be dispersed and sporadic. Not far wrong too, no birds working to give a hint so four or five stops zig-zagging our way to the mark, we were several hours before gathering enough for a proper go at the bass.

 

There followed a steady day with the occasional bass. nothing big or furious but good action from these lean early fish. Only 4 bass landed and a couple lost to the hard ground but a very satisfying first bass to Otter.

 

Best fish just 4lb 9 oz job done.

Well done Trev,

 

I got nought all day but did sneak in a 3lber on the last drift of the day- somewhere else

I also fished somehwere else and caught nothing

Had a small bass whilst winding in a squid type lure at XRay though, so they are starting to show.

 

Nice Bass Trevor - first of many I am sure.
