Apologies to all of those who have seen the above named programme, its just that I haven't so it was quite an insight for me
The host caught a schoolie (his first ever bass and I think he's a scientist, not a fisherman) from the shore. He then went out on a boat in the channel islands with a bloke called Roger and another called Mel. The caught some sandeels for bait and then went for some bass off the bottom. This blokes first fish was a 7lber! What a lucky rotter.
The 3 points that stuck out for me were:
1. Bass can swim 15 yards per second
2. Bass are almost at the top of their particular food cycle as their only real threat are sharks
3. There's an aquarium in Hastings where you can watch our sw bass (big bass) swim! :wackit: :wackit: :wackit:
After that was another predator programme where he went out with Matt Hayes for Zander on the plugs. He didn't quite get the hang of working the plugs even after Matt Hayes told him what to do. Still caught what looked like 6-8lber though during daylight hours in coloured water... Beautiful looking fish.
