Spurs were in the 6 to 10 lbs range. Was using a rig with a feather on top and baited hook below. I bounce this very gently along the bottom. On the lower hook, which is on a longish snood, I tied some roe. This is a very soft bait and does not last too long, but very effective. Would not normally kill fish for this bait but took pollack for neighbours. I gut and clean at sea.
