Holy crap, that was a beast. Beautiful fish. You could've thrown water-skis on and gone for a spin with that thing towing you. I'm having good success with bass on lures up in Dublin. There's a spot near Dollymount that surprised the crap out of me. Weedless shad and smallish eel designs are catching them on the flood, and my homemade twitching lures are working better on the ebb. Top-waters can be lethal at night time, especially when there's a decent Moon out. I had to do some leg-work to find them, but it's worth it.
Thats a Dublin bass soft plastic working well at top of tide and over. Just bought some top waters to try. I've heard the North side has some cracking bass and brilliant fishing. I've put in miles and miles of leg work finding spots and plenty of hours
@@shamrockfishing6693 I haven't done much on the South side. I've been to Malahide and Red Rock about 9 times so far this summer and have only blanked (with bass) once. Ever since an excellent lure session during a spring tide at Bull Island 3 years ago, I'm hooked on bass fishing. Dollymount bass seem to love baby mullet imitations, especially twitching lures which I've made loads of. Anyway, if you get the chance up here you should try. Not nearly as good as Wexforf to Cork, but not bad.
@@PhilInsane try small eel lures close to the bottom on a flooding tide, at the wooden bridge. At the very North end of bull Island, try shallow diving, or twitching lures into the channel all the way through the flooding and ebb tide. Top water lures at dusk can be great there when bass are passing through.
Well done buddy - That is an awesome fish ! Pike fisherman here and I usually spin using sliders and dead bait but this year I really want to catch a sea bass! Sligo is the nearest water - Any tips on what rod ,line and lures to use apart from the sand eel ? Would pike spinning gear be ok to use ? Thanks in advance!
Yep pike gear I think would be fine, I started off with a pike rod myself, I use braid 20lb on a 4000 size reel, but you could use mono, savage gear max rap plugs are brilliant, kilty, and the savage gear seeker line through metals are great to use along with the paddle tails.
@@shamrockfishing6693 Happy days, Kilmichael seems to be a good spot at obscure hours!!! I'm just getting into the lures myself!!! Keep up the good work!!! Lovely fishing 🎣 thanks for the tips!!
No not when I'm spinning or plugging the lures don't weigh that much so no need for a leader, if I was using feathers with a weight then I would have a leader. I have a short length of fluorocarbon at the end of the braid it's supposed to be invisible in the water so increasing my chances of a take. Thanks for the comment glad you enjoyed the fishing
Hiya, thats a cracking Bass and looks a lovely spot. I gave up Bass fishing 3 years ago as I got disheartened blanking it fishing around Dublin plugging . Planning to get back into it next year to try again. Can you twll me what pound fluorocarbon line do you use please? Thanks. Subscribed and looking forward to more of your videos 😃
Hi Wayne thanks for the comment and subscribing, I use 20lb braid and about 12 inches of 20lb fluorocarbon at the end of the braid with a mini link to attach my lure. If you want to meet up next year and do some plugging we can organise that I'm sure
@@shamrockfishing6693 Hiya, thanks for the reply . Il get some 20 pound the last time I was using 25 ib so wasnt sure if it was too heavy. Id love that to get some tips id realy appreciate it . I have all the gear, lures ect I juat never got many only a couple and I put a it of time in over the years. Thanks 🤗
@@shamrockfishing6693 I have the gravity sticks. Only used them once but they look amazing. Bought a light Sgs5 rod just for them. I'll be giving them a bash in Clonakilty at the weekend. I follow a lot of bass anglers on RUclips and the patchenko and zonk are the two most common catchers amongst them.
@@c.moh8842 the gravity stick white paddle tail use the weighted hooks and a slow retrieve they are brilliant, I was out yesterday and had another 56cm on it and missed a second fish ,nobody else catching not the best conditions but I managed to catch. Highly recommend them and the sandy andy. Rapala max rap fanc ( that's the model) Shallow diving had a 80cm on it last year 10lb 7 oz. But the paddle tails are at the moment my go too lure
Hi thanks for comment, I'm using an abu garcia vendetta rod ( don't think they make them anymore) and penn wrath 4000 size reel, rod cost 30 euro and reel was about 40 / 50 euro, you don't need expensive gear to catch fish. I've 20lb braid on the reel with a foot of fluorocarbon down to a mini link onto whatever lure I'm using.
Hi ger, thanks for the comment, get yourself some of the savage gear paddle tail or the sandy andy in white I use the 22gram they are brilliant for bass.
What a beautiful whopper of a fish nice catch great video really enjoyed every minute of it i love fishing myself and thanks for sharing big like from me bud tight line's 🎣and catch you on the next video 👍
@@shamrockfishing6693 yeah you inspired me to start getting back out fishing havent been fishing since my father fell ill 2years ago and I am hoping to get him back out fishing with me thanks very much bud

Nice pal bass,r,,the slowest growin fish in sea put all back ,,well I do,,,,
What was the length and weight of the bass -looks a beaut. Tight lines from across the water from you in West Wales
70cm weight was 9lb
Great fishing 🎣 just got the savage gear lures myself!!! What part of Eire were you fishing in this VID?
Honestly that was the second time using using them I found them brilliant, fishing wicklow wexford area

Yep kilmicheal point is very good put the hours in and you will figure out how and when it fishes best. Sandy Andy supposed to be good to use there
is it necessary to use a leader?
gr8 fish btw
