Favourite bait for catching tope off of Selsey(Hants/Sussex border) was head and guts of fresh mackeral. Just take the fillets off, the backbone from just behind the head, et viola! When the mackeral was fresh we would be able to cast the bait, intact, 60-70yds uptide. Just impale the cut end of the head onto one of the gripwires. It acts the same as a bait clip.
Et viola........Just been watching masterchef. If anyones interested....I know the fat bird.
