Smut rigs? Selsey beach!

Hello, all I am coming to Selsey up from Weymouth in July for a club fishing comp I hear Selsey is good for smuts, whats the best rig to use for smut any help would be great. I am probably gonna use a mix of Peeler,Black Lug, Squid, sandeels and Rag and are there any spots on the beach better than other many thanks !

Re: Smut rigs? Selsey beach!

size 3/0 in a wide gape - pennel for bigger crab baits ..
I would leave the lug,sandeel and squid at home unless its a species comp because otherwise on 10 lb smutt is gonna outdo your 12 small bream
Peeler and hermits will take the smutts and the bass .. Selsey wont produce anything big other than that - its not known for rays or eels ..
If it is a daylight comp then stick to crab for wrasse,bass,smutts and just about everything else ..
