Is it still worth fishing for pollack

#1 Post by Teegerstk »

Recently got some jelly worms and weedless hooks as a result of an impulse buy, is it too late in the year to get pollack off the rocks?
Thanks lads

Still loads going on the shore. Still 15 degrees these days. When the Mercury drops they will move out to more stable temperatures
