Never fished here before but a similar question was posted on another site and apparently peeler crab is a top bait at Malin.

get your hands on a few large crabs, you should get some laying about the pier,
crack them open and use what is called "dead mans fingers" the crabs gills'
these work great off malin.
we were down there a few nights ago, used two hook flappers.
place is teaming with coalies, getting them on every cast,
also a couple of desent pollock from the rocks at the back
of the pier, got them on sandeel.....
as ole rab c said " see me' see the sea' i love the sea me"
right i'am off for a swally!!!!!!! so were's the F***'n purse!!!!!!!
