I think they get so preoccupied with sandeels there that you have to match it, and most are this sort of size.. Off rocks, over reefs etc I think those black minnows are great as the bass will be smashing small fish and they swim perfectly... Only my thoughts mate, and I am guilty for over thinking it a bit...lol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I had 4small eyed ray and 5 smooth hounds. Nothing big(about 6lb) Good fun though. There’s some big porgies about up here at the minute. I had visions of him getting towed round the bay screaming. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
