mike farrants Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 I've just picked up a 2nd hand (but brand new) Shakespeare Salt XT LRF rod 2-12g I thought since i only catch tiny fish form the shore/pier i might as well have some fun! Can anyone share any tips, rigs, lures, etc? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odyssey Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Best advice is use a lead head and £5 of ragworm will last you all day…. It can be addictive and you’d be suprised at what you can get on lrf gesr, a 3lb bass gives an awesome scrap and a 1.5lb flounder will be stripping line 🙂 great to keep on boat for those windy days in the harbour mike farrants 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malc Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Creature baits such as... Work well as do the small minnow lures. Fly spoons have done the trick too with a baited hook behind. Can't wait for my granddaughter to get big enough to go out fishing! Geoff, suzook12 and mike farrants 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike farrants Posted January 23, 2023 Author Share Posted January 23, 2023 Got myself a few LRF goodies off amazon (they're much smaller than they look) - will give it a go soon! Malc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonC Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 This has somehow gone under the radar, but LRF does not belong in ‘Stinky baits from the shore’, on the grounds that you aren’t using stinky baits, you are using lures. This random posting needs to stop, you are becoming out of control. mike farrants and thejollysinker 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of them have flavours and salt and are still a bait 😜 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
