Double figure Bass from the UK (+ HD video) - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I have not been kayak fishing much this year, but last weekend I managed a quick trip out.To be honest, I really did not fancy it, but my kayak fishing friends Adam and Dave persuaded me !

The weather was fantastic, but the tide was very strong and I spent most of the time drifting, because my anchor kept tripping.

Adam was doing well, and Dave was having an absolute stormer of a day - he caught loads of ray, including this Blonde Ray...

I was getting more and more tired and frustrated, so I took a break (I almost packed up and went home I have to admit !) - suitably refereshed after my beach food break, I solved my anchor problems and resumed fishing. Adam and Dave said their goodbyes, but urged me to stay... I am glad I did.... because I landed a new personal best bass - over 10lbs. My first ever double figure bass.

In the UK, a bass over 10lbs is the holy grail - and the fish of a lifetime for me. I still have not calmed down...
