Member Removed Posted March 24, 2009 Report Posted March 24, 2009 i would love some tips on rigs floats etc for drifting for bass with live mackerel.im a member of the eastbourne anging association and would be fishing off beachy head in depths of between60 to 100feet. Quote
Gnasher Posted March 24, 2009 Report Posted March 24, 2009 that depth you will find the portland rig easier mate. Quote
Member Removed Posted March 24, 2009 Author Report Posted March 24, 2009 thanks for that and i will try.its still a way off yet ........lori Quote
Wedger Posted March 24, 2009 Report Posted March 24, 2009 (edited) If the bottom allows, use the same as a hopper rig or rotten bottom portland. If the bottom is very snaggy but reletively even depth, then still go for the float. Edited March 24, 2009 by Wedger Quote
Maverick Martin Posted March 24, 2009 Report Posted March 24, 2009 Hi Patrick and welcome to PBSBAC's home on the net. I have never tried fishing float in that depth and would reccomend the same rigs as Gnasher and Wedger. However as Wedger says if the bottom is very tackle hungry but of a relatively even depth then no reason why a large float should not work. Have fun trying Martin Quote
