that was a pretty small one for the commons!!
not normally used but a cocktail tried non the less, 2 squid, mackerel and coalie!maybe trout fillet on the far side too!!!
have seen an article in totalseafishing a few years back of mark jones in wales using baits easily of this size for his conger shore fishing and casting them ok on a ron thompson accelarator or something similar plus lead.
bait for ray??
