Just wondering what people experiance with these are? Personally I Have ever used them but was looking at some 200mm versions and wondering how they would go around on 10 and 15 kg rigs around the headlands?
The ones i mean are just like a soft plastic but rigged for trolling, cant remember the brand but im sure there are a few differant ones. |

I could see them working if you find bait fish and troll arond them larger fish could be prowlling around them, again it could be $$$$ if they keep taking swipes at them, as with S/plastics I go through a lot . Maybe hard bodies would be the go. cheers steve -------------------- Goony Googoo

Not really sure to which you are refering to I'm assuming you're refering to the squid type or the very large SP type ?
There's that many lures on the market these days it's not funny alot catch the fishermen & not the fish. I'm old school either your traditional skirted lures or bibless minnows / Rapala types Having said that it's more a hobby than anything but O make all my own some are proven designs which I take a mold of then knock one out after another & some are my very own design have more than you can poke a stick @ but these days only carry the ones skirted on the boat & generally run the same 4 every time dependind what I'm targeting in 2nd pic the lure heads.  If there's enough interest I could be persuaded to do a thread on how to mould & cast your own lures --------------------  Save The Fish, Eat a Pussy |

I think you'd be more productive using 3" Xmas trees around headlands, blue ones were always good for me.

Got 10000 planted at the farm, but they all about 4 meters now, would a small cut off branch do the trick?? going to pick myself up a few bibless lures and a few skirted lures. Never used either buit ill see what the shop recomends and give it a go.. Its all a learing experiance.. |

Yeah poly I thought thats what Rucs was refering to SP riged , But i think they can get expensive if they get crashed and rip'ed
the biger models 30cm riged are about 30-35$each. one grab and tear from a toothy and there goes $30 of plastic -------------------- Goony Googoo

Not like conventional SP's. I found some on Campbells Pro Tackle, these are just a few of them: http://www.campbellsprotackle.com/store/product.asp?ID=3481 http://www.campbellsprotackle.com/store/product.asp?ID=4261 http://www.campbellsprotackle.com/store/product.asp?ID=3869 HTH

Hi Rumbo,
My fav hard one (apart from that one) is the "Bllue Pilly'' by Lively lures deep or shallow divers,I like a hard one rather than a soft one :wub: . Fish. |

I have a couple of 4 oz jig heads laying about they can be used for rigging up baits or very large grubs and trolled quite easily.
Personally Id run a squid SP on one and I reckon a lazy king may hit you pretty quickly... I have no need for the jig heads mate so if you want them send me $5 for postage and ill send both up to you ,,there worth $15 each retail.. You can rig them how ever you like.. http://www.lureworld.com.au/products.php?category=1190 there down the bottom 4oz lumo jig heads 1 blue and one yellow one ,,,up to you mate... -------------------- YOU MUST SHOW RESPECT TO GET IT IN RETURN, NEVER PRESUME YOU DESERVE IT.....
