i reckon pilchard /baitfish to be facing upwards
hooks into side of fish
if repetitive casting is required
ezample rock fishing wash / surf
twist a tag line of fuse wire into top hook eyelit and run through eye of baitfish to secure bait
good luck baitfisherman |

| Turn the pilly the other way last hook to go through the eye and with a pair of pliers bend the shank of the hook nere theye in a little the pilly will hold better |
