Your private guide will advise you on which method of angling to use on the day. There are numerous options:
Spinning – Fishing from a stationary position with baits/lures.
Dead-baiting - Fishing with a dead natural bait (usually Perch, Roach, Herring Eel) using a float. This method of angling is best when there is enough wind to make the float drift.
Dead-baiting and spinning are usually carried out at the same time. Jerk baiting is a rather new method of pike fishing on Corrib and the angler will require a special rod & reel and a selection of Jerk Baits.
