Not a whole lot of action here as the clocks change and a tough season draws to a close but this fish showed up midweek at a both surprising and welcome moment. In a previous post Here I pondered whether this lure would be as deadly as it looked and in all honesty I still don't know either way but I can say that this fish opened my eyes to what can happen. Fishing off a sandbar as the light faded I blasted off a cast into the gloom and started a sink and draw retrieve but aborted midway, for reasons I can't remember, and cranked the lure home at warp speed to recast but got slammed by this fish a rod length out. How this fish could intercept such a fast moving object is beyond me let alone almost swallow it!
