I turned around and caught a shoal of coalfish passing by, searching for food. |
During late August and in September specimen coalfish, cod and conger up to 35 lb have been recorded. |
North of Holyhead and round to Rhos-on-Sea the wrecks carry both pollack and coalfish, but the size of the pollack can drop and fish of 10 lbs are considered good fish. |
The North Sea is not the greatest place for fish but on any dive you are likely to see pollack, coalfish, ballan wrasse, anglerfish, topknots and ling. |
If you are fishing specifically for pollack, coalfish, cod or bass with strip, slice the mackerel strip lengthways along the dotted line indicated by the bone locations. |
Huge conger, pollack, ling, cod and coalfish were regularly pulled up the steps to the old Angling Centre and weighed in front of big crowds of onlookers. |
