Not sure this is is in the spirit of the forum, what's next guess where the bass mark is, guess where the the pike was caught? Lets not single people out lads. We all have marks we like to keep to ourselfs. Lets not discourage people from posting in fear of being pressurized into giving out information they don't want to and just take what information we can from the posts.
Disagree with this thread guys, Bassboyo is sharing his catch reports with us to inspire, and show some of the techniques he uses, and I appreciate that.
Yeah of course we all want to be shown where the holy grail is, and then when it gets' mobbed/spoilt/netted and doesnt fish anymore everyone loses.
If everyone feels pressure to give up their marks then people will just not bother sharing. I have been fortunate to be shown a few cracking marks in my hometown area near Plymouth (and will be going there when I get home) but I wouldn't share them as I know how much effort was put in to try that coastline over years.

Christ almighty, what does the first line of the post say "just for fun" which I think is how Bassboyo has taken it looking at a couple of posts he's put up afterwards.
Not asking for specific marks is it, just location (eg SW coast, NE coast). I would'nt give out specific marks for Bass but catching Coalies/Pollack locally doesn't need a lot of thought, Wrasse needs a bit more use of the grey matter though if you don't want to put many miles on the clock.

No prizes for guessing your location!
To everyone:
In fact it doesn't matter one bit where your from(or who you are for that matter) as long as you keep on adding value to this Forum. There's more than enough info in the brilliant reports that have been posted so far, so keep it up everyone!
I support the message that Bassboyo is portraying 'get out and Fish' and find some of this stuff out from your own and shared experiences, and yes it can be done, with a bit of homework, determination, guidance and patience!
The technical aspects, guidance and experiences are here in this Forum for you! UK geographical location isn't important, getting out learning and having fun learning something new is!
Bassboyo: have you ever read the 'Tortoise and the Hare?' It ain't over til the fat lady sings and she's only warming up at the mo'.
Well it was me that started the thread so I'll put up a pack of softies that I bought last year (haven't been opened) for the prize. Prize must be sent to the winner, unable to donate to a third party I'm afraid.
And the winner is.......... BASSBOYO.
Pm me your address mate and I'll forward you the prize
Only a bit light hearted fun mate which you have taken it in the manner it was meant. Tight lines matey, keep the species rolling in as we'll be starting to chase you down soon
