The fish bellow was taken on Monday. I was on a favourite mark, fishing with the lucky craft, 2-20g rod and a new 4000s biomaster not top of the range when it comes to reels but a useful piece of kit for the plastics. The water was a bit coloured but the temp was up and the tide was spot on. I fished a corner I know always hold a fish just before the turn of the tide and bang I hooked a fish on the new megabass x120, a shallow runner! I dropped this fish and this concentrated the mind and I got back to fishing hard covering as much water as I could. All the time waiting trying to gauge the turn as I knew my best chance was just as the tide turned before the water really coloured! Ten minutes in Bamp this fine fish hit a tide minnow 120 slim red shiner, smashing colour for murky water. The fish absolutely took off once hooked and on the light gear was a pleasure to play. The lucky craft ESG is a deceptively powerful little rod, with a through action once into a fish it bends in a powerful curve right to the butt and has plenty in reserve, a joy to fish with.
