Tactics:
A renowned early season starter, on the 'tip. Load a feeder with caster and hemp and fish white or red maggot on the hook. Halibut pellet will also catch early season fish but it comes into its own more after a fortnight or so; use very small halibuts in the feeder and 8, 10 or 12 mm halibuts on the hook- even 6 mm are worth trying at times. Barbel and chub can also be taken on the waggler, in the right swim. Good Swims: The faster the flow, the better for early season barbel and chub. |
