Two or three hook flappers in close and you'll get plenty of flounder and small turbot. Mackerel and rag and don't be surprised if you pick up a sea trout. Wack it well out and you'll be in dogfish territory, especially once it gets dark. It was lively enough in the spring but was quiet the last 2 months but usually starts to fish well from the end of the month on. Hope that helps
