Has anyone else done this before? 🏊

I’m lucky enough to own a few inflatable boats so I wanted to set myself a little challenge to catch a fish on each of them in one trip!

I think this video shows a nice comparison between the capabilities of different SIBs and how the sea conditions can affect them… this might be the first video I’ve ever made of me falling in 😅

Can I catch a fish from THREE different inflatable boats before the...

This week I’ve been using a little “pack raft” to access some new shore marks and put a lure exactly where it needs to be.

The run of good fish continues and I can confidently tell you that this has been the best start to a bass season so far. Plenty of fish in the 60-70cm range so are there more big bass around this year or have I got better at catching them? Either way I’m not complaining.

I’ve just finished a day of Tuna training in Looe

This has been a really interesting experience for me, running through different scenarios in the classroom and then getting hands on with the kit out on the water, I was even lucky enough to get into a PB bucket. Speaking to each of the lads about our different backgrounds and sharing the excitement of what’s to come in our seas was a highlight.

Big thanks to Capt. Dan of Sowena for running such a brilliant day. Soggy smiles all around!

Catch and release is a big part of my bass fishing, when I can pick a couple of good fish for the table and let the big breeders go I know it’s been a good session!

A weekend of big tides and stormy weather provided the perfect conditions for bass fishing from the shore with lures.

Usually at this time of year the bass are fixated on small sandeel so lure choice is a very important factor. I like to wade into position and use the current to wash the lure into areas of structure where the bass will naturally wait for prey to drift by. More often than not the take will come on the pause when the line is slack and the lure is moving with just the tide.

Catching these fish from shore in the dark is an exhilarating experience and they taste all the better for it!

I’ll admit it’s been too long since I’ve made a SIB fishing video but I think this one was worth the wait!

A real adventure for me cruising along the coast of South Devon and making camp along a tiny creek with incredible scenery. This was one of those trips that made me appreciate the characteristics of an inflatable boat and the ability to pull up just about anywhere.

I hope you enjoy this adventure as much as I did, many more of these to come!

In this epic coastal adventure, I explore the rugged shoreline of South Devon in my inflatable boat, fishing as I travel in search of dinner for an overnight...

A little look of what’s to come in the next video!

With the big tides and decent weather I decided it was time to get my waders on and head out for my first night session of the year.

I missed a couple of fish using the black minnow to start and that was the cue to switch over to a crazy paddle tail. I had several bass in quick succession with this one being the best of the bunch.

It’s been a long time since bass was on the menu so this one will go down a treat!
