you tend to get them in amongest the boulders on the back of the pier ,you need a flat calm night as well . most of our fishing from bangor pier is done through gaps between boulders into 2-8 feet of water ,just depends if you can find one that doesn't have to many snags . tackle grave yard :lol: though robin in trap and tackle loves us losing weights hand over fist :twisted:
