<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After fishing the Irish Bass Festival (2014) and blanking.........a trip was arranged to go back in the autumn!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Waiting and watching reports the time came to get packed up and make the journey to the emerald isle for a few days; the weather wasn't great leading up to the trip, but the ferry had been booked and accommodation paid for!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've been chasing a double figure bass for endless years in the UK on a lure and it's still haunting me!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So what does Mark Padfield do......? Go and catch a bass of 13lb 6oz off the top on a surface lure....salt in the wound but what a fish and the memories of the fight it put up will stay with me forever.</span></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We named his fish 'Bubba', as you can see a slight deformity giving it a stubbed nose.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #fcfcff; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 20.533332824707px;">Bubba might have been ugly but look at the babes she hang's around with. I had a red letter day two days after this with a bass measuring 77cm and weighing 11lb on the nose, smashing my PB, nearly doubling it. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Time has disappeared....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It has been a long winter, but the time is getting closer to cast a line again for the bass. Lots of things to get ready, cleaning the tackle I forgot to do last time I used it.......</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Trebles to replace, lures to clean up, soft baits to rig, spool up new line on reels and generally get everything in order.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Lots of new lures to try this year - I had a great trip to Florida and spent way to much time in <a href="http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CFPageC?appID=94&storeID=25&storeId=10151" target="_blank">Bass Pro</a>, well that's what the family said?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Soft baits, hard baits all waiting to hit the water and hopefully catch the returning fish.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Of course how could I resist the lures from my favourite lure shop on the South Coast....<a href="http://chesilbaitntackle.co.uk/" target="_blank">Chesil Bait 'n' Tackle </a></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The shop is outstanding on the lure front, rods, reels, and as many lures as you'll ever need (unless you're as addicted to buying...like me).</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I have added a <a href="http://chesilbaitntackle.co.uk/shimano-sustain-4000-fg-fixed-spool-spinning-reel-1007-p.asp" target="_blank">Shimano Sustain 4000</a> to the armoury this year; </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The past winter I have been fishing the 'Winter Championship' matches on the river with <a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheFishingClub" target="_blank">Gillingham & District Angling Association </a>, it has been great to meet up with some old friends again and fish the river Stour where my fishing started. I will be back there this winter, but I will also be there this summer once the season starts.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Good numbers of chub, roach, perch, dace & bream. The summer will be great moving from swim to swim, lure and bait.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I have been using this rig for a time now after missing quite a few hook ups on LRF kit. I found that with any of the longer SP’s like the Power Isome, if hooked near the top and you have a longer tail drifting/flapping to attract the fish that potentially the fish will hit the moving part and not connect with the hook, thus missing a bite.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I’m not saying this hasn’t been done before, just my version of what I have found has helped me.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">Some great ideas come together when out fishing and chatting with friend and fishing companion Will at Next Generation, this one came after missed bites from smaller fish on my behalf and downsizing bait. This being the alternative to downsizing in allowing the same bait to be used for both small and big fish. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">This particular use came into its own when wanting to cast a bit further with this sp, when the standard hooking arrangement of just nipping through the head or 'whacky' meant that a good percentage of the time the hook tore through the sp.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The idea is to keep the same flowing presentation that you would have with a single hook rig, you can do this by using the lighter fluorocarbon lines that are available.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Take a length of fluorocarbon (hooklength), tie on the bottom hook, I use a </span><a href="http://www.gofishing.co.uk/Angling-Times/Section/how-to/Coarse-fishing-advice/Fishing-Knots/Grinner-Knot/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">grinner knot</span></a><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"> for most of my hook knots, as the upwards facing tag will aide in keeping the SP on the hook. This hook for me I have always made the smaller of the two simply due to the fact that on average 99% of the smaller fish caught have been on the bottom hook. Once this hook has been tied you can tie on the top hook at the desired length for the required sp lure. You can increase or decrease this if missing bites.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The knot used for the top hook is a knotless knot, used a lot in carp fishing rigs.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Hook variations and sizes that have worked:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Top hook size Bottom hook size</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 3pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Obviously this can be an endless combination and you can alter the sizes to suit your requirements. Go up or down sizes if you find you are missing fish.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 3pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The beauty of this type of rig to me is that it allows me to have pre-tied rigs stored in a hooklength box, pretty much as I would for my freshwater match fishing. Different sized hooks on varying fluro for different jobs.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Above the knotless knot I have been using a rubber bead, above this you can add a glass bead to give a slight bit of noise as it moves up and down. My take on this in using a rubber bead is to protect the knotless knot from any damage. Then above the beads you can add your weights, these being split shot, cone weights or olivettes (type used for pole fishing).</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">OK, so how does this allow the versatility to change rigs with minimal hassle?</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 3pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Instead of a permanent knot attaching this to your mainline, you can use a micro swivel or one of the many variations used for freshwater feeder fishing for a quick change link. At the top of your hooklength tie a loop knot with a </span><a href="http://www.gofishing.co.uk/Angling-Times/Section/how-to/Coarse-fishing-advice/Fishing-Knots/Figure-of-8-knot-/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">figure of eight knot</span></a><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">, this will allow quick changes to another rig without continually cutting back your mainline on every rig variation.</span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Hooking up the SP.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 3pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The top hook is only hooked through the head end of the sp, then on the bottom hook you can hook it up a couple of ways.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 3pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">1- thread the bottom hook through the sp to the length of the distance between the hooks. This set up means no line showing and the line is internally hidden, this is slightly more fiddly but you can do this at home and store the pre threaded sp’s back in a sealed bag to protect them. After a period of use I have found that this method allows the Power Isomes to stay on the hook longer without breaking down fish after fish, especially if you are catching lots of small fish.</span></div>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">2 -you can simply ‘stitch’ the bottom hook along the length of the sp, this is a lot easier to do, but I have noticed it doesn’t last as long with the sp breaking down and tearing.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">If you allow the fish to sit on the sp, you stand a greater chance of deep hooking a fish. I am a catch & release angler and with this in mind the two hook rig can hopefully keep deep hooking to a minimum, add to this barbless hooks and most fish should be returned unharmed.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Don't forget the disgorger......Using a disgorger makes unhooking a fish a lot easier even with barbless hooks.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I hope you enjoyed the read, as said before this is what I have found has helped me to produce more fish from bites. </span><br />

As the title suggests, last weekend was a mix of LRF (light rock fishing) / MRF (medium rock fishing) or M'uRFing as <a href="http://ngangling.blogspot.co.uk/2012/09/inspiration-lure-master-mr-takayoshi.html" target="_blank">Will Harding</a> and myself have been calling it!<br />
Will has talked about MuRFing on his blog, click the link on his name to find out.<br />
<br />
I have been using a 1-7g rod that has a higher line class rating, this has been allowing me to have the power to put down on some of the 4lb pollack that I have been connecting with. The rod has a solid carbon tip that can be from 7ft to just a little over 8ft. It is a fast action rod that gives that little bit more when required yet still allows me to fish for the smaller species if I'm changing venues, saves on carrying two rods!<br />

This was the Saturday evening with pollack and wrasse being the main species taken between Will and I, only a short session but as always the short trip is worth more than not getting out at all. Travelling light and being able to move and adapt to venue and fish species in front of you being the key to catching.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Sunday morning gave me the chance to meet up with Andy (<a href="http://www.hookslinesandsinkers.co.uk/2012/09/a-welcome-dorset-foray.html" target="_blank">Hooks, Lines & Sinkers</a>) and his mate Nobby, this trip has been long awaited for them to come down and fish this end of Dorset. The weather window was going to be short with the increasing wind, but we knew there was space to fit in a few hours before the change made conditions to difficult.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
A 5am meet with myself being a couple minutes late! Then the choosing of weapons for the session (should of done this the night before, but due to being fishing didn't get time....), and off we went. The wind was noticeable as we walked to the start of the target area, catching up on the past few weeks since there return from Cornwall after there annual boys jolly fishing trip...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Nothing like the anticipation of what the day is going to bring, south westerly and first light fish always going to be a good chance, after a few casts first schoolie landed, game on!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The light increased and Andy had a couple on a Duo Tide Vib Slim, so after another 30 minutes time for the breakfast and chat.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
No sooner had my lure hit the water and I looked down to flip the bail arm and this juvenile gull swooped on the lure, I'm sure he/she won't be doing this again in a hurry....No damage done, the bird was caught in the line and the hooks of the lure were over its beak, gull released safely.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Time to start the walk back. The wind was now gusting and the seas white water increasing, this was just looking so bassy. Nobby had the first on the return journey followed by myself, hard work walking and fishing into a 25mph+ headwind, but the effort paid off.</div>

After a very late night on Friday, fishing and rod building, I was due to meet friends at a mark on the Purbeck coastline for an early morning session. Due to the early hours start it was easier just not to go to bed on Friday into Saturday and load the system with caffeine to keep me going!<br />
<br />
I was first to the car park and sat waiting for the others to arrive, for once I was early and was sat in the dark planning my attack in my head for the morning....what lures to use and where I'd like to get to before the sun starts to come up. The previous evening we agreed on the meeting time, they obviously forgot......I arrived at 04.45 and they rolled in at 05.20!<br />
<br />
My fishing companions on this trip were fishing partners from many a trip and a new bass angling specialist Rob Wolfsbarsch ( Rob Staigis - <a href="http://www.wolfsbarsch.com/in-english.html">http://www.wolfsbarsch.com/in-english.html</a> ) from Holland who had come over to fish with Tom ( <a href="http://tomsfishing.blogspot.co.uk/">http://tomsfishing.blogspot.co.uk/</a> ), along with Mark & Joe ( <a href="http://lurefishingforbass.co.uk/">http://lurefishingforbass.co.uk/</a> ).<br />
<br />
After the shaking of hands and introductions it was off to the area we had mapped out to target for bass. There is something very special about walking the coastline at this time in the morning, we are truly blessed here in Dorset to have the coastline open to us to fish at a very short drive.<br />
<br />
After a good 40 minute walk in the dark we got to the target, water and conditions looking as good as they could be for the day. We all spread out as Joe & Rob disappeared around the corner to fish another area out of my sight. After a climb across the rocks I got to the one I had my eyes on........I could see a ledge under the water where the water dropped off, this was where I was going to start working the lures first, looking for fish working along the drop off. We were over low water but normally this can still produce and give the first light fish.<br />
<br />
After only a couple of casts over the ledge, fish on!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Adjusting casts into a stiffening head wind, which gave that feeling of winter is on its way!<br />
Up and down the ridge, trying at different depths and distance until I found the depth and area to target that gave fish on repeated casts. Next to be landed another pollack.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGYvL8rUPqP_6uhmU8U5b29yGO0X18WGUnhCSZxoXzXkPj81epOovbnZEgAnZ1X_fgY-L1CE5C3ngKMsRiFr7csFBJZZ9Emv9IiFkBRTe_r4VOQhp-7Y6zoJSsBsPoiwvwAa3Rx1CVUtRa/s1600/P1010029+(Medium).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="136" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGYvL8rUPqP_6uhmU8U5b29yGO0X18WGUnhCSZxoXzXkPj81epOovbnZEgAnZ1X_fgY-L1CE5C3ngKMsRiFr7csFBJZZ9Emv9IiFkBRTe_r4VOQhp-7Y6zoJSsBsPoiwvwAa3Rx1CVUtRa/s320/P1010029+(Medium).JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
As the light increased the numbers of pollack dropped off only to give me a couple of wrasse.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I increased the distance of cast and got my first bass, only weighing about 3 1/2 to 4lb but target hit. I stayed on the same area of rocks as the others moved around, I knew I had fish out in front of me and they all came to the same lure, the IMA Hound ORCA in Bora Mullet.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWzHSA3OIqj_50bPr2WVkUlAfg5Fv33U9cV8jfZnw7TseskLQUzz_BUoo4QWYY5bWxEcnwCd4CnAIscCEqyUiHD4dChLP1knwTKFOodFrZuwknc5A4RaCF1SmlBh8LUui8Vrbx3y__f7bg/s1600/ima_hound_orca_125f_009_mullet_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="164" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWzHSA3OIqj_50bPr2WVkUlAfg5Fv33U9cV8jfZnw7TseskLQUzz_BUoo4QWYY5bWxEcnwCd4CnAIscCEqyUiHD4dChLP1knwTKFOodFrZuwknc5A4RaCF1SmlBh8LUui8Vrbx3y__f7bg/s320/ima_hound_orca_125f_009_mullet_2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
This lure casts very well even into the increasing wind, I had no problems getting distance. The lure itself weighs 20gs and is 125mm in length, it is designed to work at a depth of between 80-130cm. This is the lure that was matching the bait I had in front of me.<br />
<br />
So, light increasing, wind strengthening and that sudden hard shockwave hits down the rod, fish on! This fish was giving a good account of itself playing around at up and down the ledge it swam, finally allowing me to get it close in and get a look at my second bass hook up........bending down to lift it out and one big shake of its head as I am about to grab it, its off! Right at my feet, I'm claiming this one I had touched it......Feeling generous to myself!<br />
<br />
Now the suns up and the fishing turned off, just like flipping a switch!<br />
<br />
The others now return from around the corner and we have the who's caught what? It would be unfair of me to tell of there catches, that will be on there blogs very shortly. We carried on fishing for a few more hours, changing locations to no avail.<br />
<br />
Now, what could be better than a bacon butty and a cup of tea to wake you back up? Sun shinning and the catch up time, I haven't spoken to these fishing friends for a while and the normal laughter soon flowed over what everyone has been up to.<br />
<br />
This was the end of the morning fishing session for me, but after a short spell at home and a chance to get some rods wrapped, food inside me and more caffeine it was time for round two!<br />
<br />
A quick phone call to Will Harding ( <a href="http://ngangling.blogspot.co.uk/">http://ngangling.blogspot.co.uk/</a> ) and the next plan is made......A quick change of gear, out with the bassing tackle and onto the LRF. I have been testing a new blank to DFR over the past couple of months and it is performing above my expectations.<br />
<br />
Now for those with a belief that LRF isn't fun, think again! Below one of many pollack that gave me a genuine smile and enjoyment from my angling, after all isn't that what we all aim for?<br />

If there was ever a time when I wished that it would stay light for longer this was it.......This was catching, not fishing! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I met up with Will at the mark and Rob Mears a local photographer who enjoys his fishing to. After a quick chat I was into fish from the off, first cast in a small wrasse, then solid pollack after pollack up to 4lbs. These fish were giving the test I wanted on this rod, strong fights with line screaming from the reel as the clutch was let loose.</div>

When fishing from rocks above the water a net was a must to make life easy for us and to safely handle the fish. On a mixture of soft plastics from Molix to Ecogear the fish kept coming to the net for all of us. Rob had this great wrasse, just look at the colours in the mouth, an artists pallet on one fish.<br />

The Molix SP was the Sligozzo 4" / White Shad, I did cut the larger bulk part of the body off and hook up allowing the big paddle to the rear to work in the water.<br />

All the SP's were rigged on jig heads, my first cast in saw me loose one on a fish, a bit to hard of a strike on my behalf. Lesson learnt and allow the fish to take the lure then lift into it, fish hooked.</div>

The light was fading and the fish were still biting, the words of just one more cast! I did not want to leave, when fishing is this good it is hard to walk away from it.</div>

The sun dropped beyond the horizon and we made our way back to the cars, this truly was a great days fishing, bass, pollack & wrasse all giving fights on light tackle.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It would be unfair to report what the others caught, I'm sure this will come in there blogs when written.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We tried again Sunday, but with conditions changed from the sun on the day before to howling wind and driving rain we had to admit defeat! I picked up Will and Lolly to hopefully get to where we were the day before......safety ruled here and we weren't going to put our life's at risk or anyone else's to save us just for some fishing ( even though I am obsessed ). We drove around, parking up and getting saturated looking for somewhere to fish, then having to settle on somewhere that could of given a surprise. This was not to be, three very wet anglers returned to the car to then go and get food! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Sunday was a wash out......... </div>

Take a look at the link above to see the Komomo II in action. I just love this lure and admit to being a lure addict! I own a few of them........ </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Just a quick trip to the shop today - <a href="http://www.chesilbaitntackle.co.uk/" target="_blank">Chesil Bait 'N' Tackle</a> or you can find them on <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Chesil-Bait-n-Tackle/262237860504477?ref=hl" target="_blank">Facebook</a></div>
<div>
I knew they had just got the Komomo II flashing plate in and after a phone call to say keep one back, I just couldn't help myself! Like sweets in the sweet shop, I have a sweet tooth; so as you can guess I walked away with more than one lure!</div>
<div>

<div>
Plans are made for some bass fishing over the next week or so, so please let the weather be nice to us and give me that chance of some decent bass. </div>

After a busy summer of holidays, fishing and hectic children (now back to school) it's time for a few recent reviews to be put on the blog.</h3>

Many thanks to:</h4>

<b>Tom at <a href="http://tomsfishing.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/the-dfr-custom-build.html" target="_blank">Toms Fishing Blog</a></b> - Toms rod - this was on the 9ft, 8-28g St Croix Legend Elite blank. This isn't very often that this happens, I didn't take any pictures!!!! Tom has a few on the blog, the rod is finished in black/gold wraps with a decorative carbon black/gold tube between the split grip. Fuji VSS reel seat with Pacific Bay minima 4 guides in TiCH/TiCH.<br />
<br />
<b>Will at <a href="http://ngangling.blogspot.co.uk/2012/08/little-bit-of-this-little-bit-of-that.html" target="_blank">Next Generation Angling</a></b> - Will's rod was a Tenryu Injection, it still is the same blank but with the DFR twist!<br />
The changes - all the red paint was removed, then re-coated with a clear resin for a gloss finish. Decorative carbon tube in the split grip area to match the carbon check design on the original tip section. Colour and wraps in black/silver to match up with the Matagi rod components. Fuji VSS reel seat in the screw up position with slim Japanese high density EVA. Metal work is in gun metal colours to match the tip of the butt section metal cap. Pacific Bay minima 4 guides in TiCH/TiCH. The decals were added to match Will's blog. The tip wraps are in an off white colour to help aid Will seeing the tip when led down on the ground or for quick tip/bite detection. The butt cap on this rod was custom made with a hole for a lanyard ro be connected if required.<br />

<b>Danny at <a href="http://lurefishingwithdanny.blogspot.co.uk/2012/08/evil-wrasse-cult-custom-dfr.html" target="_blank">Lure Fishing, A Diary of Danny & Friends</a></b> - Danny's rod was on a T-Russell blank, these are blanks that I have ranged for HRF (hard rock fishing). There are 4 in the range with plenty of power in the lightest 14lb class up to 30lb class with casting ranges from 8-25g to 10-40g, all at 7ft 6'.<br />
The rod that Danny has is the 20lb class casting 8-30g, it is a butt jointed rod which allows for the power when required for the wrasse. Colour wraps and design in red, black & silver. Matagi rod components in red & silver with decorative carbon tube under the VSS Fuji reel seat. This rod has a Tiger wrap in the split grip, when layered out this gives real depth and a 3D lift on the look when moving the rod hense the name of a Tiger Wrap. Pacific Bay minima 4 guides in TiCH/TiCH.<br />
Personalized decals with Danny's name and the included text of 'Evil Wrasse Cult'.<br />

Looking back it's been a strange year so far! </h3>
<div>
After a long battle with cancer my father lost his fight a few months ago, I will admit that I have not got back to people who called and emailed, I know I have missed people, but I hope you can understand that I put other things to the top of my priorities. We are getting back to normal now and I know I have to get back to calls and emails quicker, I just keep running out of time!</div>

Fishing.....this summer saw my first trip with my son, most people know me for lure fishing, you may like to know I also freshwater fish quite a bit to. I enjoy feeder fishing for bream, winter chubbing on the river and pole fishing. I have spent some time with my son hopefully showing him how to catch some fish! Keeping sessions short and choosing the times when catching is likely to be on the higher return rate. The first trip below was only a couple of hours and all time spent with him on the waggler catching and loosing a few, I wish I had someone to show me how to fish when I was his age. </div>

For him, the promise of the Mc Donald's after! For anyone who does this as well, you will understand my problem now, he expects a Mc Donald's after every trip!!!!! He had a few perch, roach, rudd, skimmers and a tench, the tench made his arm ache....those were his words.</div>

The bass fishing has been slow for me this year, the better times to go have been when I have had other commitments and just couldn't get to the water. I have managed a few trips and had a few bass, but nowhere near in the numbers I had last year, hopefully this will improve as we move into autumn.</div>

The new game!</h4>
<div>
A while back I had a few conversations with Will Harding ( <a href="http://ngangling.blogspot.co.uk/?m=" target="_blank">Next Generation Angling</a> ) after repairing and rebuilding some rods for him about going out and trying the lrf & hrf fishing that he has been heavily into. Now, I have done the ultralight for perch, chub & caught pike in freshwater, so to give this a go took a while to get me to take him up on the offer due to the fact that I have always been so heavily into my bass fishing. The ease of the 'lurfing' is that I can introduce my son in as controlled an environment as possible to lure fishing in a short session to catch fish. So far that is what I have done, caught fish! </div>

'Lurfing', so many similarities to the freshwater ultralight fishing that I have done in the past, you can make it as simple as you want or add in all the extras of knowledge that you may have from other angling experience. The basic start up I was shown was the braid or mono attached to a small swivel, from here you attach your leader/hooklength & tie the hook direct to this. As in the picture above AAA shot attached to the line direct to get the soft plastic down to the fish, don't forget though not all the fish are hard on the bottom as in freshwater different species are at varying water depths.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Hooking the sp's (soft plastics) is straight forward, threaded through, 'whacky' or add in other variants! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The last couple of trips & tonight I have been experimenting with rigs as in the picture below.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
By changing the rig, there are so many you can try, different species can be targeted as you find the depth they are feeding at, this alters in day & night. The picture above is a simple rig that has no other components to add weight to the set up, thus not over loading the rod and making sure the tackle is balanced. I have taken from my freshwater rig making to use loop knots (figure of eight knot) to change over hook lengths & weight drop line, this makes it all quicker and simpler to change over tackle & you can make up ready made spares! The build above has a short weight line tied to the leader with a grinner knot that will run up and down the leader as I require to change the depth, to stop this is a power gum stop knot(red), this stops the weight sliding down further than the required depth. You can increase or decrease both the weight line length and hook length as the tide increases and decreases, this will allow the sp to work to full potential either being worked, fluttering on the drop or on retrieve. Once you find the depth of the species your targeting, you can if you wish measure the depth length to make sure if the knot does slip or you break up you can remake the rig at the depth you were fishing at. Another way if you want to fix the lines permanently is to use the water knot. With the ready made spare lengths of hooklengths/weight lines you can simply use the loops to do your attachments, makes life easier in the dark!</div>

Megabass 'Rocky Fry' ( Chesil Bait N Tackle)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Tonight I got out with my son for a short 60 minute trip in Weymouth, not a bad evening he got to see about 6 or 7 different species from pollack, pout, whiting, wrasse, blennies, goby's. The Rocky Fry above from Megabass took most of the species tonight, the glow that this sp gives off once livened up from the torch or headlight attracted the attention of the fish. By adjusting the hooklength to a longer length and on a slow twitched retrieve gave the results. The highlight was on the Rocky Fry when I hooked into a larger fish in the dark....the line pulled, reel sung then the surface splash and slap! For about 20 seconds I'm looking at my son and his face as he's looking at the water and the fish jumping about, the next jump saw the fish throw the barbless hook! Right, next predicament barbless or barbed? I have always used barbless in my freshwater, this makes for easier release and less fish damage. When it comes to this type of fishing where they are to be released all I can say is barbless all the way! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
You may loose the odd fish, but the damage you will do if not treating these fish with the proper care will cause there death, opinion I know that is my belief. If you are new to fishing this will make it easier for you to remove a hook and when you become more experienced, you can make the change if you so choose. A few other tips when it comes to fish welfare; a disgorger is a must to remove the hooks, quite a lot of these species will engulf the hook down there throat if you don't hook up in time. Try to make sure your hands are wet or you use a damp cloth when handling them. You may want to check the species on the end of the hook, be aware of spines, especially if you catch something like a weaver fish! </div>

The last trip saw lots of smaller wrasse in front of me, and by the end of the day I had lost count of the amount landed. We moved 3 times up and down cliffs, back to the car move on to no avail to find the larger fish of any species. I am an angler and will fish for whatever species is in front of me. </div>

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Really enjoying using this reel this year, I have gone down in size from the 3000's or 4000's from Shimano, Okuma & Diawa.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">It is very lightweight, only weighing 7.5oz's (210g), the SL30PTI only weighs in at 7.8oz's (218g). I had looked at the EXO PTI, but preferred the look of the all black Smoke!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">There is plenty of room on the spool, I had to back out a 125yd (114m) of Stren Sonic Braid in 20lb test (.21mm), the info states 150yds of 8lb fits this spool size. The line lay is good with a very smooth drag, the drag is rated to 16lb which is the same on the '25 as on the '30.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The design is on the minimalist side with weight saved where not required on the frame, the first concerns of dirt or small stones getting in under the spool have not happened in the trips out so far. EVA grip, leading into the skeletal handle & very little play between the handle and main body.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The reel only comes with one spool, which seems to be the way with most reels these days, again down side if you like to switch between different lb braids or mono & braid. The last few reels I have purchased from other manufacturers have been the same, no spare spools!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I have just read a piece on <a href="http://www.henry-gilbey.com/blog/how_do_you_compare_lure_rods_.html" target="_blank">Henry Gilbey's Blog</a> with reference to comparing lure rods, well below for what it is worth is my view on rod actions, power ratings, casting weights & </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">line classes</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><u>ROD ACTIONS</u>.</b><b> </b>This can be determined by the taper that the manufacturer builds into the blank by the type of material used or wall thickness of said blank.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">This is the rate that a rod/blank is classed by in it's return to 'straight' after being compressed from casting etc.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">One of the easiest ways to think of classing the rods action is to divide it into quarters, this will be explained & become clear below, I hope!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">1 - </span><span style="color: lime; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>XF / XFAST</b></span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">. This is where only the uppermost part of the tip will have any action/flex unless under extreme pressure. This rod if used for other than its built purpose can feel like a 'broomstick' if used for another type of fishing. Good for Surface work on hard lures, but can cost casting distance by not compressing through the main/whole of blank.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">2 - <span style="color: lime;"><b>F / FAST</b></span>. The rod will flex in the upper quarter of the tip section. More casting distance available and this action is preferred by a lot of anglers for most of there lure fishing work. Works well with surface lures, minnows etc. Can add some casting distance.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">3 - <b><span style="color: lime;">MODERATE</span></b>. The rod will flex in the top half/section. These types of rods can give extra casting distance, work well with live baits and can work better for some on lighter/smaller lures.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">4 - <b><span style="color: lime;">SLOW</span></b>. This rod will flex from butt to tip. This type of rod can absorb lunges from running fish, but harder to set hooks at distance due to the rod absorbing any movement from the angler. This means any movement you make with the rod will take longer to pass to the terminal tackle end. Not all bad though! Close in work, this rod can be forgiving and save those line breakages if you have your clutch set tight.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Between the above ratings you can have fast to xfast, moderate to fast & slow to moderate. Just place these between the above ratings.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana;">"The 'action' of a rod is determined by where a rod flexes along the blank. Faster action rods flex mostly near the tip. Moderate action rods flex more near the middle of the blank. Slower action rods flex down into the butt section." St Croix. </span><br />
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Now just to clear things up a little more......</span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">You can have a fast action rod that will flex or bend through from the tip to middle! This can be produced by the materials used by different manufacturers. On average most anglers may think of the rod action as how quickly it returns to straight from being compressed from the cast.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Personally, I like a fast action that will bend, and I can enjoy playing a fighting fish. The two main blank manufacturers I use for this type of rod are the St Croix (USA), link below:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">- <a href="http://www.dorsetfishingrods.co.uk/lure-plugging/st-croix/" target="_blank">St Croix Description</a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">- <a href="http://www.dorsetfishingrods.co.uk/lure-plugging/st-croix/st-croix-blanks/" target="_blank">St Croix Blanks</a></span><br />
<u><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">OR</span></u><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">- <a href="http://www.dorsetfishingrods.co.uk/lure-plugging/matagi-t-russell/t-russell-blanks/" target="_blank">T-Russell</a>, (Japan), both companies have the fast action that will flex through to the middle. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Every company is different!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<u style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-weight: bold;">POWER RATINGS</u><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">. Quite often a heavy power rated rod will be matched with a heavier line class. You wouldn't want to use a heavy line on a light power rated rod, something will give & undoubtedly it will be the rod to break! This can also apply if you use heavier lures/weights than what is rated on the rod! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">"The 'power' of a rod refers to how much pressure it takes to flex the rod. Different rod powers are engineered to efficiently handle a certain range of lure weights and line sizes. To select a rod power that will perform best for you, simply narrow your choices to rods designed to cast the weight of lures - and sizes of lines - you'll fish with most often." - St Croix </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><u style="font-weight: bold;">CASTING WEIGHTS</u>. This is for the performance of the rod in terms of the maximum/minimum casting weights to use. If a rod is designed to cast lures between 8-28grams then don't cast over 28g! This is the point where the rod has been tested to give you the best performance without failure! Down to 8g being the starting weight, this doesn't mean it won't cast weights below, but the rod may not compress as well to cast lighter lures. </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Below 8g, you will be better off having another rod which will have lighter casting weights, lighter power rating & lighter line class, hopefully then, no failure and you get the best from your tackle and fishing. The same can be said for going to the heavier classes if you want to cast heavier weights. </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Just remember, at some point something has to give, if rated to a maximum weight don't use heavier than rated. </span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">(For the purposes of having a weight rating to write about I have used 8-28g as my example). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<u style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-weight: bold;">LINE CLASS</u><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">. This is the recommended line weight/breaking strain to use with a particular rod/blank. Examples to this would be 12-25lb, meaning the lower recommended breaking strain is 12lbs & the higher rating being 25lbs. In terms of the mentioned class, if you used over the rating something may fail, More than likely it will be your rod!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The line class will be paired to the power rating and the best performance will be to use the ones the rod has been designed for. If you used below 12lbs, the line may fail and break, most probably due to the power rating being higher than the lighter line. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<b style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">IMPORTANT</span></b><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> - Please just remember, a certain rod will have been designed to do a certain job. If a rating is marked on the rod then use it for those mentioned, it has been designed for that!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Casting heavier lures or weights above that of the rating or using heavier lines than recommended may cause failure to the equipment.</span><br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">To get the best performance from your tackle, use it within its designed performance criteria, this will give you the best possible enjoyment from your angling.</span><span style="color: red; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"> </span><br />

After a few emotional and draining weeks I am trying to get things back to normal, what ever that is!<br />
For those that didn't know, my father passed away a few weeks ago and I have not been answering calls or emails, I will be trying to catch up with those over the coming weeks, my apologies & thanks go to those people who can understand my situation.<br />
<br />
The new season and summer is around the corner, roll on those early mornings walking across the rocks in anticipation of that hit! </div>Dorset Fishing Rodshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13220641481544847774noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-506306544262034845.post-86547124274878351022012-03-17T12:59:00.002+00:002012-03-17T12:59:16.910+00:00Important Announcement.<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

After a lot of deliberation on what waders to get for the season ahead, I have finally gone for the Scierra CC4 Stockingfoot Waders along with the Scierra Riptide Wading Boots.<br />
<br />
CC4 Stockingfoot Waders:<br />
- 4-layer construction<br />
- Breathability: 3500g/m2/24h<br />
- Waterproofness: over 20,000mm<br />
- Membrane: Finetex<br />
- Inside pocket<br />
- Two waterproof front pockets<br />
- Adjustable waist straps<br />
- Adjustable suspenders<br />
- Felt or cleated soles for the boot foot<br />
- Build-in mesh gravel guards with lace hook<br />
<br />
On a personal note, I am not that large a size (those that know me, keep your comments to yourselves, yes I enjoyed Xmas cake!) I did have the large size ordered which on paper fitted, not quite when in reality! I have gone for the next size up being X-Large for comfort to move around in.<br />
<br />

<br />
Scierra Riptide wading boots are constructed from a mesh/nubuck
combination upper, with a felt sole. Features draining holes to quickly
drain the boot when you leave the water, and a high collar to provide
support and comfort on the ankles. The model I went for are the ones with stainless studs in them on the felt, made sure there are no metal parts to rust away if I forget to wash off after! The top lace loops are made of plastic, so all looking good for the price.<br />

About: <a href="http://www.labraxsquad.com/" target="_blank">LabraxSquad</a> is an online collective of several passionate bass fishermen. <a href="http://labraxsquad.com/">LabraxSquad.com</a> is the platform they use to share their thoughts, insights and of course, the cool stuff related to bass fishing.<br />
<br />
<br />
This is a recent review by one of my customers on the LabraxSquad - <a href="http://www.labraxsquad.com/" target="_blank">Custom Light Weight Bass Lure Rod.</a><br />
<br />
"To be totally honest - the end result is great and goes beyond expectations! The finishing and details are really fantastic, and the rod is really, really light without feeling cheap or weak. The action of the blank is progressive, but recovers very quickly to its former position. Exactly what I had in mind and hoped for… "<br />
