VENUE INSIDER

Fish O’Mania champion and venue regular Andy May says: Tackle: “Fish fairly light in open water to hook and land several different species. I use 0.15mm MAP Power Optex mainline to a 0.13mm hook-length of the same, and a size 16 hook. Pick a soft elastic that powers up quickly – a 6-10 TKS Twin Core is ideal for fish of all sizes.” Bait: “Fish either double caster or a small section of worm. Feed little and often when fishing shallow or cup in small quantities after every fish when targeting the shoals on the deck.” Tactics: “Fish two or three pole lines and rotate them. Keep feeding the ones you are resting and this will give you somewhere to move to and get instant bites when the action slows down.”
