O/k. Now I'm gaining in confidence, I think I'm ready to try wreck fishing for some pollock etc. Only trouble is, I don't know where the reliable, relatively local ones are! Anybody care to PM me some co-ordinates and approximate distances so I can have a try. When I get there, are shads the thing to try? huh.gif

shads - yes

 

inshore wrecks for anything but (smallish) pollack or pout - no

 

however inshore wrecks for conger fun are a big yep as evidenced by the catches of boats this year so far - although rough ground and the various reefs are also great after dark.

If you don't get it in the boat, how can you weigh it? rolleyes.gif

To quote somebody, somewhere, Kam, 'Quite frankley my dear, I don't give a damn'.

Slime I can live with. Big b----y teeth I draw a line at!

Wait 'till the killer sprats start shoaling. They can strip a horse down to bone in 30 seconds.

I can see me getting through a lot of bait when they do arrive. Does one use a scratching rig with the horse or just the harness?

I think you need to rein yourself in a little, this could get out of hand.

The mane thing is not to saddle yourself with an old horse. Bridle ones enthusiasm and check the Gallop poles to find the leading bait . Use light takle and a canter weighted rod.
