NORTH DEVON – AUTUMN BASS

by | posted in: Lure Fishing, Sea Angling, Sidebar | 0

Many thanks to Jason Hayes for sending me this exciting report….

🎣 What an afternoon on the North Devon coast!

I headed out for a quick bass session with a mate who’s just getting into fishing, targeting sea bass along our local marks. Not long in, his rod bent over and after an awesome fight, he landed a stunning 72cm bass! The excitement on his face said it all — his first real specimen fish, and what a one to start with!

He had to head off shortly after, absolutely buzzing… I stayed on for another half hour, and unbelievably, my rod went solid too — another beautiful 72cm fish!

Two cracking bass, same mark, within half an hour. Couldn’t have scripted it better.
North Devon doing what it does best. 🌊🐟
