Went out for the last two days and fished 3 marks hard, but not a bass to be seen here on the Isle of Wight.
Few terns working in the distance on the second mark, but not a lot of action.
Good news was had a cracking Wrasse to about 2 1/2 lb this morning on a Jackson Artist FR80. Cracking little lure that casts a mile considering its size.
No photos I`m afraid cos I took so long to get the bl.... treble out, that the fish had to go back pronto. Went back O.K. in the end.
Unfortunately, the Artist was one lure I had neglected to crush the barbs on, probably due to the hooks being small.
Spending tomorrow going through my entire collection and checking they are all crushed good and proper-lesson learnt early season.
