Live Bait

[The Great Wallsendo]

Anyone done this for the big fish before?...

10/0 with a smaller hook attached...

Smaller hook catches the small fish, the big fish goes for it and gets a gob full of a 10/0

Anyone tried it before?

Caught a launce on a spinner last year at Whithorn and put it straight back out lip hooked on a 3/0. After about 30 mins the rod just about took off and I reeled in a 2lb pollack which had swallowed it whole. Definately gonna try it again.

Yer use live bait often when i can get my hands on it.

Used small 6" mackerel lip hooked, launce and whiting.

Caught ling over 20lb on live launce, nothing ont he live whiting and ling and cod on the live mackerel. Dont often catch live bait when you need it but when i do get it i use it, always feel shocking mind using it.
