NEWKID 27,278 Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 Not often I catch a herring... had 2 last night whilst trolling about for a mackerel or 2.. Only had 8 mackerel and the 2 herring, enough for a decent tea tonight!! Nice evening to be on the water, a little blowy and made paddling hard work, as it was offshore.... Back on Teingmouth back beach just before dark 8 Quote Link to post

NEWKID 27,278 Posted May 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 Tasty! I didn't know you could even catch herring on a rod and line. You use small feathers, I use a a set of 10 on size 4 hooks as there aren't loads of mackerel in yet so gives you a chance of a few more, but they are used for herring. I don't see many up here though mate, think they catch a few more in Cornwall. Mainly just trolled around last night as it was part training part fishing. 1 Quote Link to post
