| We fish at depths between 20 and 60 metres and the seabed is predominantly rock. The most common species are ling, Pollack and Conger, both on reefs and wrecks. A 20lb - 30lb class rod should be used with a multiplying reel. We recommend a single 7/0 hook due to the rocky nature of the seabed and lead weights between 300-400 grammes. |  |
|
Shark fishing commences from mid June until mid September and we suggest you use a 30lb - 50lb class rod coupled with a 6/0 multiplying reel loaded with at least 250 metres of 30 kilo line. General drifting can produce a wide variety of fish. (Up to 18 species have been landed in one day) Pollock fishing is very good sport with a light spinning rod, fixed spool reel and a Mr Twister or jelly worm type bait.
