The key to catching is knowing what bait to use, and how and when to use it
As a rule we us fresh or live baits and catch them on the day, however we recommend that you bring a back up just in case, Ammo produce a good quality range of frozen baits and are available from all good tackle shops.
Mackerel, Squid and Sand eel are all favourites that produce excellent results
On the bigger tides we use artificial lures such as shads and red gills, many an hour we have debated what colours are best, however you can guarantee a whopper gets caught on something obscure every time , banana skin, sausages and the like have all tempted fish over the side in the past and produces a good chuckle amongst the crew.
We use only local suppliers for bait and support them through out the year
