If someone shows you a mark to fish, respect it and dont pass it of as one of your own, dont tell every man and his dog about it.

I also use the Turl... If I am using a fillet of Mackerel, I like to leave the tag eng and pull it through the knot. The tag End can help keep the Mackerel secure without having to use bait elastic.
