It depends totally on where you are and conditions-
In shore, shallow water slow drift and wanting only big fish -pirk only
In shore, shallow water slow drift and wanting any size fish – pirk and hokies (smaller hokies if you want mac)
If your deeper water and you want to avoid casting the pirk all the time -shad
If you want ling bait every time (on its own or with hokies in dirty water)

The most enjoyable fishing is when your catching fish

Just my opinion -Regards John

While only a newcomer to boat fishing, shad fishing has got me hooked. They really gave you an edge over the wrecks last week and some guys did really well with sidewinder sandeels for the pollock.

Only been wreck fishing once so not got a favourite method but in years gone by my favourite method was chrome pirks and rippers.

When i first start i like to use a jig, it is a killer method on wrecks, but after two to three hours i will go on the shads, it is a lot easier on the arms the older you get

Well for me it has to be tope fishing in the summer then winter uptiding for the cod i sometimes go wreck fishing using shads the blue ones seem to be the ones ive caught most fish on found a good wreck last year with a good head of pollack on so this year me and (deadlyfish) rich are going to give this one a go with jellyworms the (black ones with a red tail) seem to be the one to have so we will see what happens might just have a go for a portbegel shark this year that should be good fun on a 16ft boat ( richard think we need a bigger boat)Ha Ha tightlines to one & ALL Alain

got to be shad fishing during the clearer water periods
using lighter rods and reels every year
i dont think you can beat the feeling of a decent fish gently mouthing the shad before finally hitting it and turning for the bottom.
dirty water its got to be uptiding without a doubt

I really enjoy fishing for pollock with jellyworms, i have a 12lb class rod, which makes for great sport, you just cant beat those first few hard diving runs. shad fishing comes a close second ive caught some realy nice fish on shads and with well balanced light gear you get the best sport.
