Interesting reading stewart.seems everyone got there own method and suppose if it works for you why change it.to bling or not to bling.easy enough just try both ways n bingo into the fish.cheers for link

I have made some rigs for Plaice. Couple of wishbone rigs and some flappers. Used 8mm colour beads. About five on each snood. Red yellow orange colours. I will be trying Shields pier. Also another couple of marks I have looked at over winter. Ragworm seems good bait.

I've had them from Easter onwards, given good conditions (a period of nice, settled weather, clear water) but the early ones tend to be a little thin after having recently spawned. They get plumper as the summer goes on, so May / June is a good time to start getting some better ones, right through the summer - just got to avoid the macky-bashers on some marks!
