A recent guided session conducted by Joe, my 2nd Guide at South Devon Bass Guide, highlighted something of huge significance if you’re a bass lure angler looking to capitalise on the lowering light levels associated to dusk and the early darkness…
This ‘something’ is the use of a dark coloured, or even better, a jet-black lure within that window of opportunity that is present when there are either high levels of ambient light in darkness (caused by lights or a bright Moon for example) or in the case of these captures, during the period of twilight.
Indeed, it was during this critical segment of the evening, that coincided with the turn of the tide also, that I would like to discuss in the Audio Clip below the slideshow of Mike’s bass – for it wasn’t just the dimming light that influenced Joe’s thinking as you’ll hear.
