I went out this morning with the wind near on non existent and had four small bass, nothing to write home about but great fun.

I missed one hell of a hit, not sure why.
Basically all my fish seem to hook up on the second hit but one big one today just hit hard once.

What am i doing wrong, i stopped, twitched but nothing. Should i have carried on?


Hopefully the photos will work.

Well done Michael ...looks like good fun... Tried Hayling Island last year when visiting family in Portsmouth. Lots of fish about but difficult to fish with all the weed, needless to say i didn't get any..

Hard luck Michael, I had the same problem as you this morning using a Patchinko, 3 hard hits but failed to hook, lost all 3 of them :x
going back to using the z-claw tomorow.
