Prawns as Bass Fishing Bait is abit of a cheat code when the conditions are right but they’re also a great hook bait for a number of other species such as Wrasse, Pollack and Smoothhounds to name a few.
Fished under a float or on a running ledger they are easy to use and if you know how and where also EASY to catch.
Now I have limited mobility, if you’re reading this as a first time viewer the clue is in the name “The Amputee Angler” so for me using a push net or foraging about in the rock pools for them is simply a non starter. So I catch them using a drop net OR at times a prawn trap in my local harbour and creeks here at Newhaven East Sussex.
Simply baited and left for a short period of time you have all the Prawns and Shrimps you need and all without getting wet or slipping on dangerous rocks in chest high wader and welly boots.
In this video I show you the modified drop nets and traps I use to catch my bait.
Thank you for checking it out if you do and please hit the like or more if you’re feeling generous it really helps the video.
