I was using limpets i picked from the rocks with razor fish and harbour rag i dug at benone. At giants causeway on beach rocks to the right hand side of the hexagon stones i fished to catch the mackeral and pollack. Its always productive with fish all year round and i fish the ledges alot also near Waterfoot in autum/winter for codling plaice turbot whiting but you do get pestered with doggies so avoid using mackeral as bait.
