Excellent looking fishing...

I've often thought of fishing the length of that pier along the back with lures for Pollock - any sign of any pollock to the lures or hanging round the mackeral baits?

would i get away with a pike rod and 50lb braid, or possibly a beachcaster with the same?

Sun Jun 17, 2007 11:15 pm

well for general conger fishing the 50 lb braid part is fine but no way could you use a pike rod unless you were very experienced. a beachcaster would be fine i suppose.

cheers mate. it's a solid hollow glass rod with plenty of backbone to it so it should handle them.
