Any tips on fishing glenarm. were you on beach or breakwater.

do you need long casts and what bait works here.

I'd say to fit 7 Rockhoppers on it, it had to be the Beach Pooks...

All I ever manage there are Dogs and Whiting....

hey pookie i caught that bass on light tackle close in when lookin for flatties on a two up one down flattie rig size two g/point hooks, using small lug and frozen razor fish to tip the baits, it was a small bass but great fun on the light tackle
we were on the beach just at the police station
tide was well out

He lies! Bet he launched it to the Horizon with a full tilt Pendulum cast using a 5/0 Pennell with 2 Crabs on it.... at High tide, then retreated to the nearest tree for shelter.... bet he nearly fell out of it when he saw that bite too!
