Evan McGovern reports on a recent fishing trip to West Cork where the bass fishing was fast and furious…
Three of us fished an early morning session on a West Cork rock mark. We clambered onto the rocks loaded up with spinning rods, floats, and rag worm. Conditions weren’t ideal for float fishing with a fair swell rolling in.
We got set up and were straight into fish and the fishing was steady until we left. We had wrasse up to 3lbs, with most fish over the 2lb mark. Lovely to get back to the summer fishing.
Please note: Rock fishing is an exciting sport, but anglers are reminded of the need to take sensible steps to ensure their safety. Check tide tables and weather forecasts and do not take risks. Wearing a PFD of some description is recommended. more Safe fishing advice.
