First Bass Fishing Session of the Season | Top Water Lures | Lure Fishing for Bass

I finally managed to get a lure fishing for bass trip in. Conditions seemed favourable although there wasn't much bait around and, as ever, the night fishing was more productive than the day fishing. First bass of the season fell to top water so was chuffed with that. Get in!

Thanks Liam. I hope you're right about the footage, I'm gagging to get more shots like that but means I have to stop fishing😔

[@ianturner3033]

Usual class video. Very informative and great footage. 👍 I often watch the take 9 months ago where you see the swirl, then as you pause to look at the camera it takes the surface lure. For me a video classic. Camera is in the perfect position. As regards your question, would I give up and go home? With all that scenery, wildlife, fresh air and peace and quiet. Not a cat in hell's chance. And your persistence paid off.👏👏. Who really knows where the fish are? If your not fishing, you ain't catching, and just the mental relaxation of fishing is enough to make me stay. Stay safe, mind those slippy rocks😯.

[@SlippyLimpets]

Haha, that is a good clip. And you're right, if you your lines not wet then you're boy going to catch. Tight lines👍🎣

There is very few things more pleasurable to watch than an expert fishing lures. Weed is a pain this time of year - just gotta try fish through it. Weedless lures are useful. Finally, next week, I'm off to Pembrokeshire for some lure pleasure. Big cliffs and drop offs there so looking for your Spro extendable landing net (you know, just in case I catch a fish n all). Tight lines sir!

You must be referencing a different channel 😄 weedless SP's work well but, for me, they don't make enough noise in coloured water, even with an added rattle. Hope you have a good one in Pembs, I'm down there at the end of the month for the Bass Festival and can't wait. It's a great place to fish.

Always great to get out and try, even if you dont catch much mate... 10 out of 10 for variety catching that gannet. New species for the lures your using . Always love watching your vids

[@SlippyLimpets]

Thanks mate, and yeah, it's always good to add to the species list🤣

[@derigriffiths322]

Slow your lure down to a crawl in turbid water, it works in the Bristol Channel where visibility is often poor. The bass can zero-in on buoyant worm/senko type lures fished weedless and weightless on a very slow retrieve in coloured water just as they would if you fished the technique at night in the gin clear. If you're over sand or mud, try slow rolling a weighted paddle tail along the bottom, seen it work in coloured water in the upper reaches of the Bristol Channel recently, the bass will take the lure when it passes them as they nose around for crabs etc.

[@SlippyLimpets]

Thanks for the info. You guys must have nerves of steel fishing in that coloured water all the time. I bit of murk and we think we'll never catch fish

[@derigriffiths322]

It's definitely not sight fishing! You need to pick marks with pinch points like estuaries, back bays, coves and inlets where you can search the water methodically by casting and moving. Casting into the murky abyss on the open coast isn't really an option.

[@SaltwaterAngler]

Great video, Ive also been using that Zip wake all the time imagining a fish coming up from the depths like in your terrific footage.Put me down for 10x replays on your most replayed analytics! Thanks for the positive comments, don't forget i steal most of my editing ideas from you anyway ! Interesting that your waders albeit breathable are still over heating ! Ive reverted to shorts, cold legs and cuts ! Keep it up I have a feeling this is your best Bass season yet stay tuned folks......

[@SlippyLimpets]

It'll come one day, those lures are proven fish catchers, and yeah, breathable doesn't exist in the UK it's just too humid. Shorts and special shoes when possible 😉 The season has been slow to start for us but hopefully it should kick off soon 🤞

That drone footage strike was epic. 2nd mark you showed screams bass with gullies, weed , bolders and strong current . Tight lines!

[@robertgallacher7214]

It's going to be a grind this year i think. Had first one off the top in April but everywhere seems to be the same, just odd fish on marks/stretches where you would expect more, especially given water temps way up on same time last year early on, 3 trips in and only one 60 plus so far. You could have fished one of those areas til the cows ;) come home and just one would have been a result. It's definitely a year to get away from the usual places, best session numbers wise was on a stretch i had never fished before. A session on a known mark then two on new ones is the plan. Good start getting some fish on the board,no matter how poor a year it is it can only get better from here on in.

[@SlippyLimpets]

It has been a late start but got admit, I hope you're wrong about the season buy it is looking that way. Defo right about new marks though, it's well easy to get stuck in a pattern that you think works but then each season is different. Keep casting and moving. Tight lines Rab👍🎣

I met a guy down the rocks last year and he caught a seagull on his lure. We found the best way was to put a rag over it’s head to keep it calm while we untangled it. About a month later, I caught a baby seagull trying out a new rod and reel. A towel over their head keeps them calm.

Very, very difficult to take one off the top in coloured water, you must be blessed. Bass normally switch to grubbing about for crab in such conditions as the crab are emboldened to come out of their hidden holes thinking it’s safe. I doff my cap for even trying, god bless the rogue headbanger that saw your lure. Nice vid as always.

[@SlippyLimpets]

I think you're right, that bass was lost and I got lucky. Thanks for the comment and tight lines👍🎣

[@barlow2976]

Yes, but if you are fishing a shallow mark what bass wouldn't investigate if it heard/felt vibrations from something on the surface? I caught two fish in really coloured (less than a foot vis.) and weedy water on a Savage Gear TP minnow, a floating soft lure. Just cast out and twitched occasionally, and the fish find it. Only schoolies, but it was impossible conditions for anything else. If you want to cheat put some fish oil soaked cotton wool in the cavity, and it gives a chum line for fish to pick up on. Or try bait :)

[@Oli.Brown.]

Dirty water: some spots like near certain estuaries, I don’t mind the water being a bit murkier, otherwise I’d just move. Conditions like you’d got, I would just move. With the drone you can send it up to see if there is a tide line or how far the brown water goes. Sometimes it’s just a case of moving around the corner. If murky water persists, a white paddle tail or something very loud. Edit: then you go and catch 👌 Nice start to your season

[@SlippyLimpets]

Aye, I don't mind a bit of milkyness, I think the fish can feel more secure, but chocolate water is another thing. Seems a loud topwater was enough this time round, but not always the case. Had any joy yet this season?

[@Oli.Brown.]

Yep got off the mark a couple of weeks ago. Was hoping for an early May start but the sea temps got stuck around 9C for weeks! Then the temps go up, but sadly along with that nasty loose weed! Word of warning: there are folk about that aren’t keen on anglers fishing around ‘nature reserves’. I’ve had my run ins of late, but unfortunately for them, I know that there are no bylaws in place. Worth noting if you go up that way.

[@SlippyLimpets]

OK Oli, thanks for the heads-up. Good to know the fish are around. Cheers!

I am looking to go on a Fishing Holiday in the Penzance area this summer. What is your strategy for finding good marks on your fishing vacations?

[@SlippyLimpets]

I normally choose my locations based on fishing rather than trying to find fishing whilst on holiday. But, even then I'll decide on the species I'm going to target, once I know that, then I know what type of ground to look for using Google maps and navionics. Structure, current and depth are the 3 main criteria. Hope this helps

[@EasterlyWind]

Is it just this time of the year the water is extra murky and weedy? Went out this week and based on forcasts and winds I should have been ok yet it was muddy out there. Im not as hardcore as you so packed the gear away and went for a coastal stroll instead. Tight lines Nathan

[@SlippyLimpets]

Could be the time of year, but I've been caught out like that a few times so I've got a bit of theory about it- If it rains during big, but falling tides, then the mud/silt gets deposited on the rocks until the next set of rising tides comes and picks it up again. Just a thought :-) Tight lines👍🎣

[@andrewfletcher8955]

Great video mate ! I've caught my biggest fish in chocolate water in South Wales and I've probably caught more fish in coloured water than crystal clear conditions. In fact I have more success spearfishing when the viz isn't perfect too. My theory is that the bass feel a bit safer to investigate things. Keep up the excellent work!

[@SlippyLimpets]

That makes total sense. The areas I fish are normally crystal clear so when it is murky we get a bit negged out. Maybe slowing it down is the key! Thanks for the comment and tight lines👍🎣

[@raymondthompson1476]

Likewise Andrew. Here in penarth the water's pure Bournville, so it's rare to see anyone else lure fishing, just a lot of long-casting bait-blasters (who mostly just humour me), but I catch. In fact there are a couple of spots nearby which are a bass paradise in the summer and I've only ever seen one other guy do it there; he got a nice 3lb fish. My best there so far is a 7lb bass last year on a cheap jointed minnow. Taking the road less traveled works for me. Raymondo

Hi Andrew, Depends what you're after but if you're after pollack and wrasse then Dunstanburgh Castle and Cullercoats point are good shots.

As with all marks it can fish at different times of the tide and here I liked 3 up 3 down. Your new long casting lures would be perfect here.

Why do you never say where you are fishing?
