Arnie has been at it again – here is his account:
Arrived at crantock on Sunday at 12.15, low tide at 10.10, started fishing at 12.40. The wind was fairly strong blowing NW, with the swell around 4ft but blown out and messy-white water everywhere.
Started with a big tide minnow 200 and surf 150 but they were still getting beaten up quite bad due to the conditions. I needed to get deeper to present the lure a bit more naturally, so on with the 28g megabass bubble header.
5 casts later I hook into this beauty at 1.10.
Slow steady retrieve to stay deeper, with random lifts to create an upwards darting action, and brief pauses afterwards to enable the lure to flutter back down.
Although the bass are still on the small side (still) we are all still seeing a lot of life in the rock pools and absolutely tons of white bait in the water.
Anyone fancy a dip?! It’s surely still warm enough. LOL
