West Cork Fisher, Jeremy Smith, who normally targets bass alongside the Cork coast is giving all his consideration to gilthead bream lately…
Had a lovely day in Ring, West Cork on the weekend. I had some screaming gilthead runs and noticed a giant fats 8lb bass landed on the backside of the tide. There have been additionally just a few 30 to 40 cm bass round however the water is unquestionably hotter and the whitethorn is out. Don’t solid for trout until Mayflower is out is an previous saying. Nicely, that rings true for bass. Undecided about trout however different species are on the transfer. Simply hope the honest climate continues – Gilthead fever is upon me. I also have a new fork for digging lugs. There’s no stopping me now!
Met an amazing chap known as Eoin, the fishery officer, and signed up for the IMREC diary so hopefully I can fill it with catches, not simply clean days.
