Kate Birch Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 Hi and Happy New Year! Sea angler back in the day as a kid in the Irish Sea. Brit living in North Texas, live a minute walk to a great bank on Lake Lewisville. Neighbours fish and thought hey want to get back into the sport! Learning every day. Bass Fishing so different from Sea Fishing in the Irish SEA Discovered that so many incredible people on FB pages and on forum, willing to share advise and knowledge and indeed a great sense of humor! At the moment, only familiar with Texas Rig and plastic worm, just trying to get efficient, caught a few bass and catfish. Any suggestions for next technique I should become familiar with. I only bank fish, no access to boat etc, loving bank fishing and teaching myself :-) and of course watching some incredible sunsets after work! Thanks Katie Quote

Super User A-Jay Posted January 8, 2017 Super User Posted January 8, 2017 Hello Katie and Welcome to Bass Resource ~ As for another technique, a Spinnerbait is a big fan favorite. A-Jay 1 Quote
Super User Darren. Posted January 8, 2017 Super User Posted January 8, 2017 Welcome aboard, Kate! Was in a fishing break of life when I lived in TX. Grad'd UNT back in '92. Never fished Lewisville, Grapevine, or the other big lakes down there, sadly. For your next fishing trick, enjoy the wacky rig and drop shot rigs. If you can get out on a dock, or near downed trees, etc., these rigs are killer. 1 Quote

Kate Birch Posted January 9, 2017 Author Posted January 9, 2017 Seriously, thanks so much to everyone for their kind words and advise! I do not know what it is about anglers, but absolute class and passion. Hey Darren, Go Mean Green :-) Love a coffee and rambling through the stores in Denton. Going to try and get more accomplished and would love to fish of the banks at Ray Roberts! I live in OAK POINT on Lake Lewisville..a Brit who loves Texas :-) AJ definitely going to research Spinnerbait, I am sure there will be a lot of tears and curse words along the way ! :-) 1 Quote
jbw252 Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 Kate - remember that they're not curse words, they're sentence enhancers. 1 Quote
