Which is precisely what Andy and I did on Friday. I prefer to suppose I can decipher swell forecasts and the way they have an inclination to behave on the completely different coastlines, as a result of one thing like a strong one metre swell forecast generally is a considerably completely different proposition on say the north coast of Cornwall in comparison with the south coast of Cornwall. I had spent little bit of time on Google Earth to establish some good wanting bass floor on a stretch or shoreline I merely don’t know in any respect. There seemed to be a path down some huge cliffs to entry it, however you by no means actually know till you might be bodily standing on prime of the cliffs and looking out down. Fortunately there was a path, and wow did we race down it to start out fishing. Beautiful wanting circumstances rolling in, overcast skies, clear water, and actually savage floor which stated one phrase to me – bass. I do not know if or when the world would possibly or won’t fish effectively for these positive fish, however I had determined to attempt it for the primary time on the ebb tide.
I used to be doing little bit of considering on the frenzy down the cliff path about the place to really begin fishing with out getting washed in, so I clipped on a brand new Savage Gear onerous lure which is popping out subsequent yr – LONG-casting, actually grippy, very intense motion, nice colors – and began to cowl a little bit of floor. From Google Earth I had a reasonably good psychological picture of a lot of huge boulders and gullies and channels which lay beneath the floor of the stunning wanting water, and on about my fifth forged at a model new spot which I had picked as a result of it seemed so attention-grabbing and which was on a stretch of shoreline I had by no means been to, I bought hit. I noticed an admittedly not very huge bass come out from beneath the rocks I used to be standing on and swipe onerous on the lure. I felt the hit however the bass missed it, certainly there’s an argument for the bass lacking the lure as a result of I feel I yelped so loudly with pleasure!
