Tim's 72cm bass | Bass fishing with soft plastic lures in flow | Inside Art of Fishing - Episode 3

Tim Howe started his year with a 72cm bass — so we got him out at first light to show us how he's doing it. 👉 Tim's rod, the Tailwalk Bay Mixx SSD 72ML → https://artoffishing.co.uk/product/ta... This one's a proper walk-and-talk masterclass in fishing soft plastic lures in tidal flow: how to read the current, why the fish sit closer to your feet than you'd think, and the little weighting trick that keeps a lure hovering just off the bottom where the bass are looking. Ben fishes alongside Tim and learns as much as anyone watching — which is rather the point. If you've been meaning to get your head round soft plastics in current, start here. And the reassuring bit: it's not specialist tackle. There's a good chance the rod you already own will do the job. — Gear in this video — • Tailwalk Bay Mixx SSD 72ML — Tim's rod: short, accurate, happy retrieving plastics and casting at sighted fish → https://artoffishing.co.uk/product/ta... • Apia Foojin' RS Art Magic 90ML+ — Ben's rod: lighter tip, power down low, a genuine all-rounder → https://artoffishing.co.uk/brand/apia/ • Hayabusa Hyper Tornado Weighted — the belly-weighted weedless hook at the heart of the rig; change the weight gram by gram to set the hover → https://artoffishing.co.uk/product/ha... • Soft plastics — paddle tails and sandeel profiles like the ones Tim's fishing → https://artoffishing.co.uk/category/l... • Braid around PE 0.6 (~10lb) — the lightest line you can sensibly get away with, for control in wind → https://artoffishing.co.uk/category/l...
