Hi Stokesy77, the two I bought on Wednesday didn't come up with the goods....., but neither did the DOA, bombers, drop-bear, classic, or live bait either! :evil:

My jury is still out - I'm not yet ready to sleep with them like Nomad does.

Gave one a go yesterday, with no luck, though I didn't give it much of a go, as I'd already had success on hard bodies ( Crystal minnows). Not sure how to fish them properly, you can feel them vibrating through the rod if you jig them hard enough. Anyone got any techniques they want to share?

got-none

anchor or tie up at the mouth of a creek and flick up the creek let it hit the bottom then just lift it up when it hits the bottom wind up the slack lift again and repeat, works for me just dont ask where

got-none

p.s only do this on the outgoing for results on incoming flick opposite from inside the creek

nomad

ditto
I use a cheapie plastic and let it hit the bottom, slowly drag it back to the boat. then i start using the TB. this was you dont loose tooo many $20 lures.

Don't let slack in the line.

As you lift them. u'll feel them vibrate.

When you stop lifting lower the rod tip and wind in so that no slack forms thus keeping you in contact with the dropping lure.

The strike will come on the drop.

Cheers fellas, read somewhere that you can get different weighted models? I suppose the lighter weighted ones would be the go around the drains. The one I bought seems to sink fairly quickly. Might have to buy a couple more!
