Looks nice.

BMEUPSCOTTY 08-22-2006 07:34 PM

They do look nice. I still root for "our" guys, but because they are well priced they will definitely find their way into a few bags, including mine. I'll give anything a whirl once.http://forum.rscnet.org/images/smilies/bananallama.gif

It sure does have a happy face, I would give them a try for sure

Finaddict 08-22-2006 08:41 PM

Happy face
 
Hopefully they wouldn't have too much of a happy face when old Ms. Linesides gobbles them down. :bl2:

Looks good to me....all rigged and ready to go for $6.00


Tough question with all the competition though...?

You can see the lead in the top eel. It looks to extend slightly past the first hook, though that could just be some of the flash material. At that price I think they will find a place in many bags. The customs are nice but one bluefish and :(

The lead goes aprox 1/2" beyond the first hook.

Ya,The problem with that is,they might act like a keel an turn the bait over.But it has a internal weight thingy.like them storms that might help to keep it upright.

Saltheart 08-23-2006 07:50 AM

What size hooks?

reelecstasy 08-23-2006 08:06 AM

I'd drag one behind the yak

Too light for the Canal :hs:

Possibly too heavy for a lot of beaches.

Probably ideal for some shallower inlets--Pogue Gut, anyone? ;)

smokefish 08-23-2006 09:42 AM

Do you have them in the shop now?

Look good - I will give them a shot. Bet they will work great at Pips Rip during slack tide and with a little movement.:jump1: Rigged with the hooks up may prevent a few hang-ups also.:sick:
