The bulk of cod fishing is done with worm baits, usually lugworm due to the copious amounts of blood juice the lug holds, but also ragworm. |
Anglers had a selection of baits with them lugworm, ragworm mackerel, sandeel and peeler crab to catch that winning fish. |
Dominic likes to use ragworm, but suggests mackerel strip or lugworm and making up cocktails with squid strips. |
Wind and tide shift the resultant silt across the surface of the bay, where shellfish, shrimps and lugworm feed hosts of wading birds. |
Their main prey tends to be polycheate worms, such as lugworm, which are incredibly numerous in shallow water. |
High mackerel, herring, mussel and razorfish are all good, but the best by far is a dried black lugworm. |
