Get them feeding on floating bread, tie a piece of crust about 3" up the line from the hook and nip a small piece of white bread on the hook, nothing else on the line , lob it out amongst the bread they are feeding on and the hook bait looks like a bit of bread that has come away from the floating bits and is sinking , they'll take that a lot more freely than a chunk on the surface with a hook in it

This sounds like a good plan, using the big bit of crust as a controller float. Id use the lightest flourocarbon line maybe 4lb and strong forged size 18 coarse hooks. You,ve got to expect a fight if you hook one too, so good luck amongst the boats

Maybe even light clear braid, you probably need your gear to be near invisible.

Single maggot on a size 18 hook, works every time!!!

do you catch a mullett "everytime" you put a maggot in the water when fishing for them?

Red line is invisible to fish eyesight.....allegedly!

I'm off to the boot sale tmoro to see if i can pick up a light rod and reel, a float and some small hooks and maybe i'll just catch one.....

sounds like some tackle company bull fluorocarbon is the best bet with the least refraction of any line

No, damn hard to catch, sometimes you get roach and sometimes you get bream

It was Matt Hayes who said it was invisible on one of his programmes.....I think its bull**** too mate

I have caught them at the Isle of Whithorn loads fishing using bread without any luck I free lined a piece of makeral on a trout rod 6lb line and feed small pieces hooked a monster the pub emptied watching me play it round the harbour half a dozen times was going to climb down the ladder to land it 2 guy's were coming in with a dinghy he said I'll land it his mate said here's the bucket he said forget the bucket give me the fish box it's a monster the holiday makers were amazed when I let it go one to remember
