Double Figure Lure Caught bass

by | posted in: Sea Angling, Sidebar | 0

Jamie Steward decided to take up lure angling this year and got off to fine start… 5th trip out and he hooked in to something special.. “bounced a soft plastic down the crease in to a slack bit of water and 💥 seen my line pick up out the water and start running up river against the tide, reel was screaming 💤 few big ol head shakes and darting runs and i managed to tire out and guide through the bladder wrack this fine old warrior of a bass! Forgot to measure it as im new to the game  but I did weigh it and she pulled the scales to 10lb on the dot! Was relieved to see it hit the magic double figure mark and set me a new PB. Probably the best scrap I’ve had on a rod and reel and its fair to say i quite like this luring malarkey was a pleasure meeting this Bass! 👌 cheers Danny Watson of high street tackle for the guidance on rod choice and quality lures 👍🏻
