what did you loose them to leighton?

i hope not snags hahaha

i snagged my zipbait last night pretty bad, thought i was gonna loose it. lucky i was using 40lb leader with 20lb sufix so i just reefed and straightened one of the trebles.

[Leighton]

Another Lucky Craft bites the dust, Lost 3 to snags.

[Leighton]

[Mack_attack]

Got this today- alphas 103L second hand but you could barely tell.

Casts an sx48 like a dream. Got about 100-130m of 15lb Sunline super PE on it (with a lot of backing due to the thiness of the braid) The rest is going on my sol 3000's spare spool.

[Rocket75]

very nice...did you ebay it?

[Mack_attack]

Nah bought it off a guy from Fishing monthly forum index.

[Mack_attack]

Maybe this weekend some time depends on study

[Eug]

quick Q to all. do those gulp things work? i've seen them in random shops and always thought them to be gimmicks. do you treat them like normal bait? or are they lures?

[Nitris]

Eug id say that u can fish them almost as both bait and lures.. slow retrieve stopping all the time on the bottom.. like a injured bait fish or a prawn just hopping its self along.
