This report from Cormac Walsh of The Lure Fishing Podcast…
Paul Bracken has been visiting Wexford for many years now and is an accomplished angler in his own right. However, a decent bass has eluded him on the lures after many, many attempts.
After a long wait, Paul finally had his day, and on our third venue, nearly 10 hours since he made his first cast, he hooked into this beauty. The bass hit the 23g white Savage Gear Seeker lure about 15 yards out and following a cracking scrap, the lively fish was safely landed.
There is such a fine line between triumph and tragedy. I know how much that fish meant to Paul and had he lost it, he would have been truly devastated. However, it was Paul’s day, and I’m sure he is still buzzing, welcome to the 60+ club!
