Had such a blast over in Guernsey - amazing ground, what a fascinating winter bass fishery
Caught a bunch of February bass out here in Guernsey, I’d almost forgotten how exciting it is to fish these waters, the ground and currents are incredible
Heading over to Guernsey today to check out some of their winter bass fishing
Absolute monster of a bass landed on the Portugal trip I was meant to be on, check out this report with photos (guest blog post)
Winter bass aren’t easy, so it’s always extra special when you do see one………..
Which do you prefer - a waterproof jacket or smock? (plus the best wader tip ever?!)
Guest blog post - Marc Cowling catching bass at this time of year by using a soft plastic lure to essentially imitate a crab
Penn Overseas II Inshore 9'10'' 30-60g 4-piece lure rod - under £100 (plus it comes with a hard tube that fits in a typical holdall)
Off to Portugal on Sunday for a week, fully expect to be humbled again, but a friend who is already out there did catch a 10lb+ bass yesterday
What’s the one thing we don’t really imitate in bass fishing, and what’s the one thing so many bass feed on? Rabbit hole warning!

Smith’s Diamond retractable sharpener review - really handy little hook and knife sharpener, around £12.00
I got my January bass, I’m coming for you February!
You may have noticed that I shoot a few photos of myself fishing these days - apologies for this, but there are reasons for doing so!
Happy New Year 2024 (and I notice that a load of white Surf Seekers have come into stock)
Had a friend staying, really tough fishing, but we just about managed to find some
Gear of the Year 2023
Do you ever think about those gaps (periods) between the waves, and how they might impact your fishing?
It really interests me how you approach strong rip currents on a beach
We are never going to land every bass we hook, but is this another way of doing it when it’s like I talked about on Monday?
