    Surrounded by water.......

    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...

    Crabs?

    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.

    Swap 6000 size shimano baitrunner

    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.

    braided hook links

    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!)

    Sea Bass

    been out a couple of times, no joy yet, didn't expect any in all honesty, just too early, but couldn't stand the wait any longer.

    spinning reel

    Shimano exage 4000 and powerpro 30lb. good combo. could get away with any 4000/5000 size baitrunner/normal reel though.

    Sea Bass

    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.

    Sea Bass

    me too mate, i have those maria lures (anglekiss and chase BW) will give them a bash this year. Got to say i really don't like the action on the yo-zuris, and find they cast pants, all mine have been transfered to the doom box and will be given to friends. to bill, I recommend powerpro in 20 or...

    Sea Bass

    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...
