Pork liver.... Brilliant. Reminds me of using little bits of stewing beef off buncrana pier to catch dabs many moons ago. Nice range of species there, as a matter of interest how many fish hit the liver baits.

hi, pete i'v used pork liver for the first time i got 1 dab it was only i got that night that was more in daylight in last my session i don't know why they might moved in shalow water for the night there is 18m depht i.v no idie honestly, than 1 doggie of 6 and 2 rocklings of 3 in total

Well done lads, nice verity of species

Pork liver, eh? I've had a 35 lb tope on that, boat fishing out of Lymington in England.

Had it as an emergancy bait cos it's nice and bloody. Mackeral weren't producing, so by the time I used it it had been marinading in it's own juices for long hot hours.

Boy did it stink.....

Nice session that Grady fair play to ya. Never used pork liver as bait, must give it a try.

thanks tom from now on i'll gona have few bits of liver at all my sessions i thing it is worth to try

sounds like a great session grady . it's amazing what baits the fish will take . i was fishing beside a guy in waterfoot (co antrim) last year who swore by liver, and sure enough he was getting loads of wee whiting and coalies on it . it's amazing what works as bait sometimes

pork liver add some onions to it and you will catch me every cast
but seriously when i did the shooting i used to keep all the offal from rabbits and birds, and tried it for bait, and it worked just fine
