well done lads nice session and fine wrasse

[Al and Jordan]

some quality fish there lads well worth the drive

[Paulod]

yeah, I reckon there are big big wrasse here. Seems to fish better on the drop.
Hopefully get back soon

[Al and Jordan]

you should try hardback shore crabs for the bigger wrasse golf ball sized ones are great for keeping the smaller wrasse at bay. put the hook through the second from last leg and out the back of the shell and that way they stay alive and wriggle their legs about under the water and the bigger wrasse go mad for them. added to that it's a cheap way to get bait for a day's fishing . just turn over a few rocks at low tide and you'll get enough for a session

[Paulod]

good advice. I have been tempted to use peelers but at €1.50 a pop it seems a waste.
Rag are easy dug where I live but all the hardbacks and peelers are pillaged constantly.
