Estuary Lure Fishing

We like making things difficult for ourselves, don't we ? I know that I could go down to the Stour,Colne or Blackwater estuary with a few ragworm and my floatfishing gear and catch several bass on a half reasonable tide.

To make things more challanging I've been trying to catch them on lures. Which wouldn't be particularly difficult in some other parts of the country where the water is generally clearer, but so far I've struggled around here (struggled = failed).

Lovely evening last night though, T shirt and shorts weather until 10 in the evening. Not a touch though.

I'll have one soon.
