hey guys

1. Whats the best method for pinning your sea lice and how many sea lice do you put at a time? I normally peel the shell open and pin 3 to 4 at a time. Is it right???

2. For the mussel section whats the best way to pin it???

Everyone has there own way of putting sealice on, my way is not to peel put the hook through from front to back of lice pull up line a bit and put a second one on the hook. I sometimes put one on whole and peel the econd one and bind itto  the shell of the one on the hook. The bottom line is if you get the pull you have done it right

The same goes for mussels some people put the whole thing on, some make a hole in the shell and put the hook through the hole. Personally I open two or three and wrap them around my hook then bind then tight to make a kind of blob bait. Same applies as above. GET THE BITE YOU DONE IT RIGHT

GOOD LUCK

i always use a single large sealice. two if small. plae th hook between the second and thirds set of legsturn the hook through and bring out curved section of hook and let it stand proud at the front legs. by doing this you can actually keep the seal lice alive which increases strike rate, i bind the teh tail opened onto the line after teh hook. the legs open up and looks aliva and real. hope this helps

When fishing with mussel i make a mussel and choka combo!!! Take the choka and kap it leka pap and make a normal choka bait (go look under bait presentation to see how that is done) then i put 1 or 2 mussel on there depending on the mussel size!!!

The times i used it i took a bait needle and pushed it straight through and then tie the hook on and pull it back in very jently....

I also go for the chokka combo. I use chokka as the base and add the rest by just tying it around, with hook proud. Add prawns and black mussels the same way. Haven't fished with sealice before
