Mark,

I would be up for the rig making and the bait collection. The quality of the rigs you can purchase leave a lot to be desired and there is not a lot of choice out there certainly in the one tackle shop that I use.

Never dug bait either so wouldn't mind a shot at that.

Casting could also be improved.

Cheers,

Donal.
