Tips you may or may not know
Rubby dubby, use mashed up makerel and sandeel if you can get it, add some pure fishmeal instead of bran cost about £18 for 25kg at local farmers co-op, add some cod liver oil also at farmers co-op £11 for 1 gallon these items are expensive but should last a whole season and well worth the effort.
Traces; I use black&decker strimmer wire (blueish mono type) IMO it's better than heavy mono and knots lovely. Use barbless hooks (common sense)
Bait; I like to use just the head and a little of the body cut at an angle, or if I can get them live joeys. Also any live gurnard, bream, whiting, poorcod, dab that I can catch.
Finaly hit them quick, there is no need to let them run for ages before setting the hook, especially with small baits.
Best of with it, hope you get into them as well as we have.
