Pollack details - Pollachius pollachius Pollack of over 10 lb (4.5 kg) are frequently caught from wreck 'marks' around the coast of Wales. the Welsh rod-caught record was caught from a boat in Cardigan Bay in 1991 and weighed 22 lb (10 kg). These hard-fighting fish also feature in catches from the rocks and occasionally from storm beaches. When boat fishing or off the rocks try using live sandeel or an artificial on a long trace. When off cliffs they are often caught straight down below your feet. Pollachius pollachius The pollack is a member of the same family as cod, and they are often found in the same locations. They feed mainly on small fish but will also take marine worms. Good baits therefore include lugworm, ragworm and fish strips. |
