Bait selection
Submitted by Tom M on Sat, 2021-04-24 09:30
Perfect weather on Wednesday good ground fish on the screen, fished with occy, squid, cuttlefish, whiting, herring and jigs for no return then caught a small sergant baker thought that looks likely bait. Seconds after it hit the bottom dinner for all. Just goes to show how selective they can be if not that hungry.

Love them as bait but I always scale them
Found much more success once scaled but still prefer western king wrasse fillets the pinker the skin the better

Wrass
yep western king wrass are our bait of choice, very rarely miss getting a feed using them.
My spots are so secret even the fish don't know about them !
