What he says - also a single hook clip down or flapper (with a rotten bottom) is useful for fishing the heavy cabbage at the north end of the beach (from the Briar Dene up-over) or from the boat station or prom at high tide.

If you’re not fishing the comp then the advice above is good, also, it’s only worth fishing Whitley beach when there is some movement. The rougher the sea the further north you fish.
If however, you’re fishing the comp then the secret killer bait is old fish skins and bacon fished on a 10/0 hook to help get past the crabs. Use a light weight to keep distances down too.

Good luck.
