Some action...

The SW we were waiting for hit the copper coast today, as the wind was in the north for a couple of days beforehand the water clarity was spot on and coincided nicely with a rising tide for us this afternoon.

Fishing is tough at the moment but the bass are slowly starting to make there way back to the usual marks. For the next couple of weeks the water temperature will begin to rise quickly and the fish will follow.

Cian had this nice bass today on a weedless soft plastic fished slowly through some shallow boulder ground.

Nice to see some silver turning up on the coastline again, lets hope its a sign of good things to come...

Could this be a turning point.....

Water temps are rising, spring tides and reports coming in of fish coming to lures along the coast. I know for sure its not a weekend to spend indoors.

Here's hoping...

Tight lines....

Maybe a let up?

We have been having constant easterlies for what seems like months on end at this stage. However hopefully things are starting to look up. In fact on the same spring tides only a couple of seasons a go see here  we had plenty of fish coming to lures so who knows what these favorable weather conditions could bring....

Saturday evening finally see the wind changing into a southerly direction, here's hoping is can stay here for a while....

Entries are coming through for the bass festival this year and its shaping up to be a great event with anglers coming from far and wide to fish the coastline again this year.
