Hi,

I have just started fishing big grin

and I wondered what is the best rig for rock fishing?

I would like to know what size hooks to use, what strength line, whether I should use floats and what bait to use?

My friend told me ragworm is a good bait to use.

Thanks For Your Help In Advance.

Hello mate,

you could try fishing with a rotten bottom rig from the rocks if you are using leads, And yes you can float fish as it is great fun with a light rod!

Mixture of baits can be used also as in mackeral strip, peeler crab,rag worm mussels, limpets. The list is endless.

Wrasse fishing from the rocks is terrific fun. Just don't get careless. Many an angler has been washed off a rock mark by a surging wave. Never go alone, always tell somebody where you are planning to go and when you can be expected to return. Take a mobile phone with you in a waterproof bag. Check your PM's as I've sent you some links to look at.

Good luck, tight lines - NobbyC
