Hello fellow anglers here's a question for you
Has anyone ever tried a ruby duby or whatever there called from the shore,am planning a trip to dunstanburgh castle over the next couple of weeks and was going to mash some mackerel up into plastic milk cartons the 4 pint kind and refreeze them.Then when arrive at mark make some holes in them tie on some rope and throw them in the sea,might attract some fish in shore to where we are fishing,the only concern it could attract seals which could be a bad thing but will never know if i don't try.
Any suggestions you may have i would be most grateful.
Cheers
 
Anything is worth a try Charlie. I have been told about match fishermen baiting gulleys, never seen it though. Give it a go and let us know how you get on but don't forget to take your empty cartons home with you though lol.

Has to be worth a go willywetegg will let you know how i get on,Cartons will be dissposed of in the correct manner mate as always thats a sore point with me the last time i was at dinstanburgh the rocks were a state i found myself picking someone elses rubbish up i was ashamed that someone could leave stuff lying round
 
ruby dubby works for mullett, coalfish, mackerel,garfish pollack and i would imagine other species as well. One tip take the platic cartons off before you litter the sea bed with them.
 
a few years ago i emptied a crushed bag of stinking mussel into the water where 4 of us where fishing. about 2 hrs later we were catching whities on the cast .we began to run out of bait and even a snaped in half rag worm about an inch in lenth was producing fish. i always belive it to be down to the manky mussel so id say give it a try
 
Well worth a go i can't wait been a few weeks since since my last outing,will be taking my camera this time so expect plenty of snaps and i'll post them if i can figure out how to

Hi guys.

There is a ready prepared rubby dubby bag on the market called Seabag. You can see the information on it at: htpp://www.lazybaits.co.uk.

It is extremely pungent and we have had favourable reports on its use. It was primarily designed for boat use to go down with the anchor, but there are details of how to peg out from the shore. Some people hang it from piers, rocks etc and others use it from the shore. We have customers who split the bags down and use the contents in cage feeders, or make little sausages using finger bandages (don't pack it too tightly, or make small slits in sausage to let a trail out).

I hope that this helps fellas! Stay safe and enjoy your angling.

Welcome to NESA Paul. I hope it works better than the rest of the range as results from most of the lads on here using the Lug and Rag have left a lot to be desired.

Check your PMs mate.

Have kept all the spare bits from mackeral that's been filleted for bait before and chopped it up then threw fistfulls into the sea at intervals, can't say whether it helped or not but certainly I've caught fish on the same sessions.
 
I was reading an article about this a few days ago and apparently using ruby duby can bring fish in from a few hundred yards out. Each time you go fishing you could just mash and freeze any bait you have left, put it in a carton and then when you get to your mark split the carton and just throw in the frozen tit bits you have. It does work really well apparently. I've started to collect my old bait but just haven't done it yet
 
Don't just throw it all in at once, remember that the tide will carry it, you want a nice trail that leads back to your bait so add a bit at a time...
 
try going down to one of the holes on blyth beach/seaton sluice at low water, and stake the thing down, then fish the hole on the flood maybe??

Good idea for week day session but a bugger at weekend when many marks are busy.
You turn up and someone has got that spot.
 
It's a lot easier to use the kit e kat method. but using only the half size tins and a hardy tourney 6-8 oz. well it works in the river. :D
