Wish I could say I had the same problem!! :roll:

First troll run out of the packet and donated purple dazzler to the bottom of the upper Adelaide with Max back in May... :fubird:

Guess it was a Warlock without magical powers on that occasion :jester:

I got a few 80mm ones to try on the Limmen in just over a weeks time. The hooks seem ok on this size (famous last words)
Anyone sighted the new Halco Hamma 85?

I swap out the trebles and rings as soon as I get the new lures home..do it on every purchase..VMC 6x..Halco rings..good insurance against losing a really good fish.

Have seen 2 classics now where the wire loop on the underside of the lure to which the split rings attach have pulled out....no rust, just poor build.

Lost a silvery in the 80 range yesterday to a Classic guns n Roses......both the tail and head trebles and rings pulled off at the boat side. Tail mounting ring opened and head mounting ring pulled out all-together. New lure. That's the 5th failure between my mate and I this year.

I had a couple of F18 lures that the wire underside loop broke on fish straight out of packet. If you get damage like this, take a photo and send email to classic@bassermillyard.com.au and tell them what happened and they will (should) replace the lure. They did for me.

i always change the trebles and most split rings depends on how lazy i feel they never come with heavy trebles only 3x strong i believe.
