You could try a german spratt,maria chaser or some hokias or jelly eels or sandeel's whipped on the hook
with bait elastic,but i don't know any marks to try but you could ask in the local fishing tackle shop's
hope this helps,oh and you could also try some jelly shads on leadheads,or on a normal hook and lead.

Good Luck and tightlines

Up at Devils rock at the back of Howth round past Balscadden used to produce some great Pollack and Wrasse .Its a good climb down though so only for sure footed and travel well light.
