Float fished mackerel head

I read in an angling book somewhere once that float fishing a mackerel head over rough ground is good for bass. Freezing a few mackerel heads now so I can try it sometime. Anyone ever try it?

yea ive heard that before alright, never tried it though... worth a shot

Worth a shot some time yeah, I'll bring some peeler too. Would love to be able to float fish for them

Yesterday my friend has cought a 9lb bull huss with a macs head on the float

Hi

This is often a common tactic in winter where you need a big ugly scent laden bait for anything to have a chance to find it... can use it on a zip sliders or on the float. Super tactic for bass on some beaches, had two bull huss on it on Fanore around the rocks,many years ago, would never have expected to find them there...

FWIW
