I know there's flats, Pollack, and Conger there during the Summer, Didnt Ronald say something about Codling in his last post? If we're going I suggest Lugworm, Rag, Crab, Squid and Mack, Just to cover all the options. Fish your usually 2 Hook Clipped up Scratcher mate...m If there is anything bigger possibly move to Pennell Pulleys, or the like.

I thought everyone just snuck over the rocks behind the toilets??
Maybe I'm wrong.
