Great stuff Willie, thats my favourite kind of fishing :D But how many sets of wheel bearings does your trailer go thru in a year? :D

Any chance you might PM me that bait tip? I'll be going at the Moy sea trout myself shortly.

True enough, didnt think of that benefit of a high mileage like yours :D I only have to tow a few miles to get to the water, so the bearings dont ever get much exercise.

We'll be spinning in the outer estuary, small plugs tazies etc. Always keen for new tips.
