    Hi guys,
    Does anyone have any suggestions of where I could get new shells? Can't remember if some of the beaches are just sand...
    Thanks

    Suton Strand (behind the hotel) right around to Red Rock at the dinghy/yaught club is brilliant for shellfish and hermit crab shells.

    Thats where most of the bait diggers go for supplying fishing tackle shops with worms,peeler crab,razorfish and muscles.Alot of shore anglers also collect their bait from along this stretch of coastline.

    You will get your shells there very easily.:)
