Don't think they would quite reach 5-7 lb

what is the best set up to try catch bass out of interest ?? rig and bait etc and what weather is best suited for catching them passed a few spots today that were signed posted as a spot for bass
How long is a piece of string?
Different Tactics suit Different Venues
Rigs i use Normally are a 1 hook running Leger rig with hook size varying between size 1 and 6/0
Some fish well at Low tide and some at high
Baits Differ as well But most of the Bass i landed Came to Peeler Crab
Weather Not too bright with a bit of warmth has given my best results But i have Caught Bass in the depths of winter
Best advice i Can give would be- Keep a diary
- Make sure you have peeler crab
- Try venues at both high and low water
- Persevere and dont get disheartened if nothing seems to work
- Bass Fishing is quite seceretive but still ask around (Take most with a pinch of salt)
Best of luck and tight lines0 -

Yep sounds like a Bass Alright
only got back on here today!
well it looks like this but as mentioned its much darker on the back!
also the top fin was much bigger than in this picture, had mostly a whiteish belly, silver, and dark on top!
i was fishing using, rag worm and feathers, caught one of them on the feathers and the other 2 on the rag worm0 -

sound out lads for the replies im pretty much a noob so i appreciate it the spots i passed anyway the tide was just coming and there was fishermen at both so might try there. would any takle shop stock the crab ??
Some Tackle Shops will supply crab but it is bloody expensive
Best way is to grab a bucket and head down to pick them up yourself
Very easy to collect peelers at this time of the year0 -

i'd be 99% sure it is seabass. any chance of a pm where you where fishing i'd love to try for them. did you keep them? be wary as there is a limit of 2 fish a day and you could be prosecuted.
its no secret, i caught them in the ocean
wicklow, the road to brittis bay, i was on a private section of beach and just droped a line from the rocks, caught them on rag worm x 2 and 1 on a set of feathers! havent been back yet though as the weather isnt great!Its close season now till June 15th
Best not to even fish for them until then
as above ^^0 -

I thought all beaches in Ireland were public i.e. they are all part of the public commons. Is the beach actually private or is that the access to it over private property and there is no other public way to get down to it?0 -
