Did you try the brigade hut or a bit further along the Slab area before you get to the first gate this area produces fish and you won't lose gear if you cast 40 yards out

Don't go as far as the first gate fish from the brigade hut up to the number 11 mark you'l see the numbers painted on the edge of the pier as long as cast over 40 yds you'l be ok, fish it 2 hours before and 2 hours after high water

Unlucky mate, that pier is like marmite ! you love it or hate. Plenty patience and experience, you will soon know where the what are marks and what aren't marks there

If you've bought rigs it will work out expensive so use the rigs you've bought to copy from and make your own you'l save a lot if cash and once you've made a few of each it will get quicker each time you'l soon have a wallet full of rigs and its a better felling to catch on your own rigs you'l find plenty tips on the nesa home page or just ask any of the lads on here
