Buy a rake and find a sand bar. Rake away in a sandy area at low tide for best results.
seals + plovers =

They should be near the surface of the sand. Kinda of like grooming the sand.

cool thanks! Are sand eels around all year round? It seems like no matter what sand eels are always great bait fresh or frozen
