More reports of reliable bass fishing from Kerry today. This time Kevin Brain of KB Fishing Ireland  in Waterville manages to get the job done first cast on radio…

I was out doing a interview on 19/10/2013 with KerryRradio, on my time as a fishing guide in Waterville, Co Kerry. After 1 hour of talking and saying how we came to live in Ireland, we got the rods and went for a cast. On the first cast, after 15 minutes of fishing, I landed a 6lb bass. The reporter said “I have never seen anything like that before”! It should be out on Kerry Radio early next year.

After I finished my friend Frank phoned me from Kenmare, so I told him to come up for a cast on the following day which he did. After 1 hour fishing Frank hooked into a nice bass of 3lb 8oz – job done again well done all round. I have not failed once at this mark this year.

Great success again this year

The bass stared slowly early in the season with the easterly winds, but when the season got going and the water warmed up it was great. I don’t think it was as good as last year, but there seemed to be a lot of bass around 4 to 5lb mark. And what I did notice this year that the bass fought a lot harder then I have ever seen before. The condition of the bass was the best I have ever seen, so there must have been a lot of feed for them. The future looks good for bass.
