Understanding HOW and WHEN bass transit the underwater labyrinths, be it out on the open coastal reefs, ledges, and beaches, as well as inside of both muddy and sandy estuary systems is paramount to your levels of success.
In this video I explain the background to two recent captures – one at 62cm from within a brackish, inland creek on a Megabass Sleeper Craw in daylight, and the other, out on the open coast, during the darkness – this time on a Savage Gear Gravity Stick Pulse Tail.
As ever, Bertie the Border Terrier makes a brief appearance at an opportune meant, and there is a great deal of Drone footage, highlighting the beauty and the diversity to the majestic south Devon coastline. Enjoy!
In this 11 minute video I cover and discuss the following:
- My tactics and lure choices in relation to both bass captures.
- Drone footage of how mullet will often ‘reveal’ the expected ‘patrolling’ routes of the bass.
- The ‘release video’ of the beautiful 62cm bass swimming away.
- DJI OSMO footage of a basscapture in darkness.
- Snippets of the 62cm bass being caught (I had to be very careful not to give the location away).
- Multiple examples, either via Drone footage or graphics (taken from my books) of how bass traverse the coastline and estuaries.
- Footage of a big bass stalking the muddy margins.
- How I rig the Savage Gear Pulse Tail to facilitate both longer casts and a level-sinking action.
