I go out regular with andy, buy a 3 hook flapper with sise 2/0 long shanked hooks for flatties. Andy is a top skipper size 3/0 for the rays. Tell him keith in blackburn sends his regards.
Cheers
keith big grin

Hi Simon, welcome to the forum, 7 of us joined keith a few weeks ago on the Blue mink, we caught 100+ fish between us, largest was a 3.5lb codling caught by Gizz. Andy's a good skipper, he will put you right, it might be worth calling him for advice on what rigs to use on the day. Cheers..Mick
