[Big Troot]

My mate caught a rainbow trout on a small shad when we went to the loacl pond

***Simon***:

My mate caught a bass on a bit of pepperoni, that was funny

Are you sure it wasn't a Pollock??...

[Toerag]

I had a black bream on a luminous 'Mean Calamari' with a 6/0 hook in it a year or 2 ago.

I have also had Coalfish on floatfished bacon.

I had a 4oz Topknot hooked perfectly in the mouth on a 3oz leadhead with a 4" hot orange shad

[Happy Dude]

caught a spurdog from luce bay on a bit of gristle from a pork pie.

 

the fact i caught it in luce bay will tell you how long ago that was.

 

there was hundreds of the things swimming just under the boat after following one of their mates up, i put the gristle on for a laugh...

 

also another time in the same situation i caught a free swimming spurdog as it swam by the side of the boat, i just stuck my hand in and grabbed it by the tail.....lol

"i just stuck my hand in and grabbed it by the tail"

 

I've caught salmon using just a bit of string .... although it wasn't so much bait as a lasoo

[Snatcher]

Caught salmon in my youth on a bare treble hook honest! (thats how my nickname originated )

 

Had pollack on floatfished peas at Eyemouth. Someone had chucked a few sackfuls over the cliff by the caravan park. Was spinning at the time and pulled out this "pregnant" pollack,it was stuffed to the gills with peas. Off came the spinner and on went the peas and bingo

Remnants of deer tails, bits of peacock feather, nylon thread and varnish regularly accounts for Bass.
