John Quinlan from Thatch Cottage Ireland reports that a few bass were caught last week when the conditions were poor, hopefully the improved conditions will see more caught this week…
Bass fishing conditions were tough last week – a mix of strong east winds and very coloured water. Still, there were a few bass around. And some were landed.
Conditions look to be improving from this week. A little more sunshine to warm the water up would be nice, but it is likely that things will pick up now that the wind is more in the West and the water clarity has improved.

Other Kerry bass reports
Tomasz Ekert reports in his blog Sea Bass Hunting that last month he had a few bass on lures. Unfortunately as the conditions deteriorated and the winds became easterly the sport dried up.
Tralee Bay Sea Angling Club angler Antony Foley had a fine bass from Stradbally towards the end of last month. This fish measured 52cm and was Anthony’s PB for bass.
