Cornish Lure Festival 2014
It’s a week since the kick off of the 2014 Cornish Lure Festival and I have to say I’m not sure I’ve recovered yet – it was EPIC
After entering the Species Hunt competition for the first time last year, I’d managed to pass on my enthusiasm for the event to mates, Dan and Chris. Estelle enjoyed last year, even as a non-fisher, and was along for the ride again too. So with a rough plan built around the far from perfect forecast, and the two productive marks I’d garnered last year, we all met up in deepest, darkest Cornwall. Exciting!
Best Vending Machine in the World
Certainly one of the coolest things I saw in any of the Japanese tackle shops I visited was this vending machine.
Meiho Liquid Packs
With species hunt season upon us (Cornish Lure Festival this weekend), flavoured baits like Marukyu Isome, EcogearAqua and Gulp become more important in the quest for extra species. Carrying these baits and the smelly liquid they come suspended in, isn’t without its problems. The fish attracting properties of these liquids does not appear to extend to loved ones!

WPC is Go
After 3 hours sleep, today has been a long day. But a good one. Spent the day becoming acclimatised with the beautiful town of Hellevoetsluis. It was apparent from the word go that this event has been very well organised. The World Predator Classic crew have completely taken over the town.
World Predator Classic Street Fishing
The car is packed, the lure collection has been whittled down, the last few hours of work remain. At 17.30 today I will begin the mammoth 412 mile drive to Hellevoetsluis, home of the World Predator Classic – arguably the biggest lure fishing event ever to take place in Europe.
