Nice session there lads. Seems to be a lot of poor cod in Wexford the last few weeks. I have to ask, whats a spreader?

a spreader bar is a slidable boom with a swivel link in the middle and a swivel on both ends which allows two short snoods to be fished fairly close togther with the weight in the middle,mostly used for boat fishing.

Sorry, don't think that was what we used. Was actually various rigs.
