i thought he was jokin mate

as for when we went beach casting there we did not get any strikes lol.

A long time ago when i was 11 years old i had span with a spinner there (ma kontx naf xinu spinning just ekk nitnejku) and a large sea bass had chased my spinner

Never been beach casting there but definitly its good for sea bass mate!
That being said i haven't been spinning there for a while now but i was talking to Simong when we all met up earlier this month @ zeta & he said it's still productive there

Im going to go give it try some time soon too after the festi

what would be a suitable lure for seabass martin ?

MartinB · December 30, 2008, 19:59:34 CET

Ive done well with red head crystal minnows in the past & also those soft plastic/rubber lures that look like fish which have a small weight in them are pretty good too!
To work them you kind of bounce them on & off the sea bed on retrieval (they have a single hook in them which is tuned upwards so as not to hook the bottom)

Also i had a lure similar in shape to an x-rap which was jointed (2 peices) which was very good..in fact i lost it on a big sea bass last time i went for them.
So i guess those 'new' jointed x-raps Mr Fish has might work well too.

Those are Large mouth bass they are fished in fresh water my friend.Today I saw a huge sea bass it was 2.5-3 kg for sure.
