Re: baitpump beaches?
if you want to do individual lug i would suggest investing in a decent spade
or do what i do and make your own lug spade
then it's not every one that can dig lug with a spade
some like to rough it with a FORK

Re: baitpump beaches?
im use a fork at the moment john and i have no problem digging blow lug but its black lug im looking to target,i've seen a few clips on utube with the lads using homemade spades and i have to say its an art in itself but the bait pumps look alot quicker to use.One point made was that before buying a baitpump i should sus out wether the beaches in my area (dublin) would be suitable to use a baitpump...........any info lads would be great

Re: baitpump beaches?
I heard off someone that the sand was to compact in dublin bay for bait pumps and that there only really any use in muddy areas dont know how true this is but.

Re: baitpump beaches?
I would imagine that it would only be the beaches that have a more 'clay' content to provide the suction.
