I am going to keep this blog post extremely simple, primarily because I hope that the Audio Clip does justice to everything that was special about one of my regular clients’ new Personal Best bass at 69cm. Many Congratulations Ben!
An Albie Snax. You’ve just got to love these lures! What’s more, it is especially satisfying for me, as a professional guide of 8 years now would you believe, to see them making something of a comeback!
What’s more, to witness ‘The Snax’ accounting for bass of this size out on the open coastal beaches and reef systems of south Devon brings back some wonderful memories – not least, bounding across the shingle with the beam of the headlight filling my face and mouth with sand flies!
As you’ll hear in the Audio Clip below, my client Ben had never really given this lure type any real water time. However, by the end of the night he had routed out his only remaining packet from out of the bottom of the boot of his car, ready for an assault on the Cornish bass!

I hope you enjoyed that one! Nothing from me for a couple of weeks now I’m afraid as I’ll be heading off on holiday in about 8 hours!!
