    Talking

    your best bet is to buy a ready rig from a tackle store-then learn off these and try and make your own.

    bait : try using fish baits in strips .

    lug worm, peelelr crab and rag worm are exspensive baits but are by far the most productive. if these arent working try tipping them off with aa fish bait e.g lug tipped with squid.

    rigs: as i said use a ready rig, the most productive is a mustad scratching rig with a 3-4 oz lead.or a like gemini are also very good

    hope this advice helps -rock hopper
