The Eire Bass guide Richie Ryan went out to test a switch rod given to him by his good friend Kevin Mc Loughlin. Not having used such a rod before he said he was sceptical that he’d catch anything as it was May in Cork Harbour and he just wanted to see how it handled. Thinking he was stuck in weed whilst using a Clouser fly the “weed” moved with amazing speed. The picture shows the result, the first reported Bass on the fly in Cork Harbour this year.
