| 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 .. __________________ Shore Species 2012: Dab-Flounder-Herring-L.S.Dogfish-Pouting-Shore Rockling-5 Bearded Rockling-Small Eyed Ray-Turbot-Whiting |
