Nice jacket @Giles
-
Fantastic two catches! I will pin my hopes on snagging the black catch.
How is your back holding up after wrestling the 95 pounder? -
Hip is amazing thank you, I don't event about it when out on the boat. My casting is back to what it was 5 years ago , and I can muscle the fish better. It aches at the end of the day, but I suspect that is the muscle still healing.
The jacket does everything I ask of it.

Haven't been here for quite a while, but I love fishing and it's always a treat to scroll through this thread. So thanks guys! I'm fishing almost daily here in Malmö, Sweden. Weather has been great and the perch season started late August. Pictures are from this weekend and basically just outside my home. Yes, I moved to be even closer to the thing I love the most.. There's even some IH featured!

@Giles what kinda gear are you using for sea bass, and what are some of your favourite baits? Wish we had them where I live, but I'll settle for some good talk about tackle
Cool fish, pretty sure it's similar to the coastal fishing for sea trout we do here in Sweden and Denmark!

My go-to rod in the creeks around here is:

I use this for open beach fishing:

I pair the 92 with a 3000 size reel and the 102 with a 4000.
PE2 mainline and 18lb Fluoro leader.
Baits:
Soft plastics for weedy snaggy waters, my fave being :

But needless to say, I have bzillions in different colours/lengths. I'll use different weight belly weighted hooks depending on how deep the water is and where I want to fish in the water column.
Top water, I use loads, but this is always with me:
Mid-water hards, I have loads depending on where in the column I want to fish. But I use a variety of these and other brands:

And I'm slowly getting into creature baits, like these:
