i'd love to nominate " new dave" for this award however sadly he never caught it from the shore

-an 8lb 12oz bass is one hell of an outstanding achievement!!

well done dave ;)

Yeah I would put him down for it too John, it really is a remarkable catch and I'm over the moon for the lad, but the comp is for shore fishing only :'(.

Maybe next summer we could try work one out for the kayak anglers.

Dave now head the kayak fishing hall of fame having knocked quint off top spot though :)

-my thoughts exactly -but then i suppose it has to be right , -technically he wasn't fishing from the shore

Fantastic fish that nearly 9lb Bass - a proper specimen and credit to 'Dave' for having the guile to locate it within his Yak. However, sorry mate but I have to agree with the Big Baramundi on this one 'Rules is Rules' and another 40 quid will buy me some hooks etc etc when I extract 'Mr Beard' from some deep tangled filled hole in that big match up north this Sunday!!

Spawney Bass · « **Reply #8 on:** November 05, 2007, 11:50:04 PM »

No fella's its not shore caught, but no self respecting boat owner would have gone there either.

we do have an advantage with a yak, you can move from mark to mark quickly and don't have to worry about getting cut off with tides and stuff. what i can say is that fish was certainly so close to the shore that it could easily have been caught from the same. So with that in mind i have already purchased a mike ladle bass rod for next year ;D ;D ;D
Does it count if you paddle of in your Kayak & then stand on a rock ???

still smiling to myself a day later ;D ;D ;D

Ramrod · « **Reply #9 on:** November 06, 2007, 08:26:11 AM »

BB is absolutely right as it would be unfair on the person with heaviest shore caught fish, and besides Dave has already got his prize :o ;D

Baramundi Bob · « **Reply #10 on:** November 06, 2007, 08:57:18 AM »

Hopefully next summer we could run something for the kayak anglers. Im really keen to get as many as possible to join the forum and contribute to what I find to be an amazing subject.

No doubt this page will be full of big fat shore cod on Sunday evening. Hopefully the raiders from the south will hear my warning and keep off our Whitby fish.

Whitby fish for Whitby Anglers Ray - Wheel clamps at the ready :-* ;D

Current Leader

Ray Maddison 8 pounds 15 ounces

Baramundi Bob · « **Reply #13 on:** November 22, 2007, 06:00:30 PM »

Not heavy enough unfortunately but this fish was 7 pounds 5 ounces and took a cocktail bait of 3 peelers, 3 mussel and 2 frozen gulley worm fished on a 6o mustad power worm hook. The fish was caught locally in last nights Whitby Club Match.
