In and between some stormy SW winds, a night of prolonged rain, good spells of sunshine and some showers, I spent a few days this week down in South Devon carrying on from where I left my fishing last time. Living in Bristol means no chance of just popping out for a quick session so I take a tent, get up early and eat lots of soup. The wind and big tides brought a big swell, loads of crashing waves and a fair few bass for my trouble. I fished two marks and had plenty of Pollack too, but it was the Bass I landed at different states of the tide and times of day that taught me loads this time around. A few early morning on a Sayori Shad on a rising tide, another good size Bass late afternoon an hour or so into the flood on an Xlayer, another strong fish an hour before high water late morning, this time in shallower water with a Sayori Shad, and the most memorable was in about 5ft of water on a Komono 2, in the sunshine, that measured 51cm. Fished the rougher weather using SP's rigged weedless with cone weights, casting straight into the wind and the 2nd mark with plugs as well, with the wind nearly behind me. Returned them all and looking forward to next time. Some pics of the best ones and marks…
