cool cheers for the advice!
mid sized dexters then!
do you get bass on lures all year round even in the winter in cornwall?
hows the best way to fish with dexters , trolling from a kayak at a constant speed or cast and jerk them?
cheers mate

I guess the Cornish waters are that little bit warmer.
What about pollack in March Jason?.. I hoping to drift the manacles a few times whilst I'm there.

just found this online:
and liking this bit-
School bass stay the full twelve months though
Abersoch Rivermouth, Gwynedd
Mike Thrussell 01 January, 2006 06:35:00
MARK DESCRIPTION
The seaward end of Abersoch harbour where the River Soch meets the sea. Mostly sand towards the low water line, but with more gravel along the edges of the rivers runoff channels.
A low water mark mainly with the best action expected during the hour before low water and the two hours after. Takes a good surf in a southwesterly blow, but is also one of the few beaches that carries bass locally during easterly winds due to the river outflow. Can carry heavy weed after storms, but is generally fishable.
Primary species are bass, flounders, dogfish and eels from May to October. School bass stay the full twelve months though. Best of the flounder fishing is in the spring, but the bigger fish are present from October as mainly single fish running to just over 2lbs.
This is also a good mark for whiting from September through until Christmas. Longer casts find good dabs during winter and occasional plaice to 1lb in the spring.
Over high water, fishing of the little stone jetty gives flounders, whiting, eels, dabs and dogfish in season, plus bass and occasional mullet.
TACKLE AND BAIT
No need to choose anything heavier than a bass rod, 2-3oz leads and 12lb line here unless you're fishing after a storm when heavier tackle may be a better bet to combat any surf and passing weed.
Casts up to 50yds are adequate, and rarely is it necessary to cast further. Ideally, let your bait wash along with the tide direction to locate the little pockets of fish and any surf searching bass.
Crab or sandeel are the favoured local bass baits, but a good helping of fresh king rag is also excellent. Normal worm baits tipped with fish pick out the whiting and dogfish, but try mussel for the big winter dabs and razorfish for the flounder.
HOW TO GET THERE
Take the A499 from Pwllheli to Abersoch and follow the signs for the car park. Take the harbour road and walk down the stone slipway following the river along the sand to the beach proper.
