I caught more because I fished with better lures in the right places and used a different trolling technique. Overall we had over 30 Bass of all sizes but my 6 pounder looked a monster for my inexperienced eyes.
I think I it easy to think Bass fishing is easy until you actually go out there and a feeling of isolation comes over you and the realisation that fish/Bass aren`t everywhere but in specific spots, a bit like pike fishing really.
Hope you had a good trip.

tides, weather ,wind all come into play , and bait too , to much bait in an area for instance can effect your fishing ,and sometimes theres only a small window to catch maybe 30minutes then its all over ....but theirs nothing better than fishing a large live-bait under a float or free-lining when you can .......had plenty on lures , but into doubles on livies
most of my fishing is done over inshore reefs in about 15ft water in general
will be having a serious go at it again shortly......
