    Maggots are the best bait for those mullet, herrings and piper, start your maggots off on the usual rotten meat and transfer them to damp porridge mix or damp weetbix in a jar, no mess and no smell but they do grow quite large, put them on the hook live...don't leave fishing bait where mother will find it.
    One way I used to catch herrings for cat food and to feed a pet seagull we had was to put bread in the bottom of an Agee jar held down with wire netting and tie a string and a float to the jar, plop them over the side of the dinghy and row around checking the other jars, usually get 3 to a jar.
