My Recent Catches – The Needle has landed!

An account of my 7lb+ ‘slab of silver’ lured on my self-designed needlefish – plus, that of a former clients’ 6 pounder!

My Recent Catches -Things are looking ‘up!’

From guilt and apprehensive to feeling utterly elated! Catching bass ‘off the top’ has that affect on you!

Alas, we can now fish. However, I won’t be commencing my guiding season just yet…

Alongside restocking the proven favourites, these are the lures I’m adding to the armoury for 2020…

Until our Government deems it safe and/or appropriate, I will not be fishing or guiding.

Excitement, Contemplation, Confirmation, Conception -components that brought an idea to reality!

Lightness, balance, power, precision, casting prowess, sensitivity and finesse -just some of my essential criteria!

All this wind and rain has made it difficult in comparison to last winter – but the bass are still there!

My final blog post of the decade! Thank you to my readers, clients, family and friends. Happy New Year!

Significant winter catches, new methods mastered and many client PBs – Part 1 (Jan-June) of my yearly review.

It’s a great feeling when a mark you suspect may produce, provides something of a red-letter event!

So what’s made it into my list for 2019? Two rods, a reel, waders, boots, fluorocarbon and various lures!
