catch a big bass...or even more so a gilthead bream and you are hooked for life. Sea fishing the southwest has taken me to some of the most stunning places in the country that you just wouldn't head for otherwise.
Incidently the gilthead is the only fish we have in our saltwaters that pound for...
No mate, you can only eat edible crab (surprise surprise) which is a seperate species, browny redy pink in colour with black tips to its claws, unlikely to get them in a drop net that close to shore but it can be done if you know a spot.
not to swap but i got a dl4000fa yesterday, it feels really good quality, very smooth and the linelay is superb. you won't be disappointed, feels the perfect size, may have to sell my 5000 gte-c's as i just don't think i'd use them anymore.
any body tried powerpro, i use it for lure fishing for bass (as mainline) and its great stuff, was wondering if anybody has tried it for barbel hooklink (in moss green NOT hi-vis yellow!)
A lot of people have recommended me that lure recently...will have to pick one up, my local shop stocks them at a good price i think. apparently they cast better than the rapala maxrap 13, i have just taken delivery of the 15 size which is 1/4oz heavier though.

to bill, I recommend powerpro in 20 or...
Daiwa salt pro minnow in lazer green shiner took a beautifull brace of fish at 7lb 2oz and 6lb 5oz, not to mention probably over twenty fish between 2 and 4lb. They are the best lure I have ever used i think, cast miles and are ultra stable even in heavy seas, never been one for the £20+ lures...
Nearly that time of year again guys,
My waders are patched, braid is replaced, reels cleaned, new lures bought....bank account emptied.
Just a few more weeks and it will all be worthwhile!
For all those bass enthusiasts I hope to see a stream of that most photagenic of fish (and fishing) on...
