Session to remember tonight.
Went out in search of Bass in the hope of finally getting one on a spinner - almost impossible on the coast I live on!
Walked out to a local mark and started off two hours before HW with worm to scratch around for the odd flatty or Bass...the Bass tend to turn up just before HW so I had a bit of time before the spinners came out.
After an hour and nothing to show for it I thought sod it I'll get a silver Toby out...first cast and it snagged, lost Toby...marvellous
Tied on the only other silver thing I had which was a spoon from Aldi and cast out....Bang! first Bass, lost on the retrieve
By now I was thinking I'll never get one on a spinner!
Second cast Bang! another Bass...bloody hell!...managed to land this one - only small but my first Bass from the Fylde on a spinner....finally!
Third cast Bang! another fish on the Aldi winners!
Jesus this was getting absurd!
This carried on for the next 90 minutes with a few slack periods of about 10 minutes.
All in all I must have caught around 20 - all very small.
I did manage to lose a larger fish around 2lb but I'm not complaining!
Great session...grinning like a nutter!
