sandeels

[DerekPrice]

anyone used sandeels up here and what was caught (just seen them on ebay)

[Davey.adair]

I haven\'t used them, but caught a codling a few weeks ago with one in its mouth.

Use them all the time in the summer on the float or spin with them for Pollock etc but they no doubt work in the winter as well,I had a Codling on a Launce off Blyth Beach before Christmas as a rule I dont use them over winter but I\'m sure someone said in another post that they use them with good results,I prefer the Ammo blast frozen eels,who makes the ones you have been looking at ?

[poacher36]

good bait for pike , and pollack.

[DerekPrice]

dont think its a company just a bloke from cornwall selling them

[gazzawill]

good for tipping off in chunks but whiting will be first at them the odd big bass will take sandeel but school bass love them

lol I should of said who sells them and not who makes them,that would be Findus for the latter.Derek if its Ammo and its next day delivery they should be ok,personally I\'d rather go to a tackle dealer at least you know what you are getting

[MikeR]

Big flatties love them whole fished very close in.

[DerekPrice]

thanks for the help, considering trying just one pack from tackle shop and see how I get on

[jimmy]

i have used them a few times at craster,cresswell and lynemouth,had some luck with them but not a great deal,still a handy back up bait to have though

[Mike.Haley]

Great bait for bass in the summer.
