Re: SCOLLOPS FOR BAIT ????
havent used them before but i know that they would work. why not use something else tho, something cheaper and more readily available. mussels?

Re: SCOLLOPS FOR BAIT ????
excellent bait espcially after a storm... be careful of the shellfish from cork harbour.... caesium 6 and all

Re: SCOLLOPS FOR BAIT ????
Considering they do not occur near rocky marks in nature I would not expect them to out perform loacalised baits such as rag or mussels etc. I.e. I do not think pollock, coalies, conger or wrasse would be too interested.saving private brian wrote:id say them would be great off any of the rocks marks,,,,what fish doesnt like juicy baits
However in the right places (sheltered strands of sand or shingle with a good tidal run) it is lethal for bream
