    Raw King prawn pieces fished close to the bottom around the break water rocks or defences behind the pier, late summer is a good a time as any and if it's warmish high noon co-incides with high tide on that particular day watch the nibbles. You might get coalfish then maybe even a thud/hard...

I had a circle hook tied on didn't need to...

    Mid-Down as off the end of August-sept 7th was brilliant. coalfish over the 2lb mark and ballan wrasse round about 1 1/2lb but I was using cut raw king prawn as I'd forgot to get bait. Took the coalfish on the big gear, took the wrasse on a telescopic LRF rod all from the pier. I've another...
