Eshed gaff

 Should I bring a gaff to eshed? If so, what size do I need? I also heard you can climb down near the water but I don't know if this is true.

You can get down near the water level at the south end of eshed wharf, IF you get the spot right at that end. There is/used to be a ladder a little to the north of that southern end but it's been a long time & I don't know if it's still there. It used to be illegal to climb down the ladder anyway. As for a gaff, it's wise to take one if your after bigger fish. I'd say it's a good 15 or so feet down to water level so I reckon a gaff at least 5 meters long would be needed.

 Yeh there is still two or three ladders to get down there, there are little platforms underneath the stairs. But yes i would advise to take a gaff if you're targetting larger fish
