berley BERLEY
Using berley for whiting is highly effective although there are those who don ’ t like to use it and those who do . Using berley does attract a wide range of species but whiting also and when using berley , it means you don ’ t have to move around a lot to find a school of fish .
Using berley doesn ’ t have to be too complex - the simplest methods are often the most effective . A berley bucket containing berley pellets and some mashed pilchards will really get them going . The berley pot should be placed on the seafloor and every few minutes give it a little shake to keep the berley flowing .
If you ’ re not into using berley then you will have to make short moves until you drop onto a school . If the fish go off the bite for some reason , you ’ ll have to up anchor and re-move to try and find them again . This is also effective but does take much more effort in locating schools of fish .
Conclusion
Whiting sure are a lot of fun to catch and while quite easy , initially locating them and keeping them bitting is the hardest part . Providing your setup and rigged up right for the location your fishing you should have too much trouble putting fish in your boat .
