Blueys - not the movie sort.

At the suggestion of various members and given the magazines will run a mile from criticising a piece of kit, here is your chance to tell us what you really think about a rod, reel, line, lure... keep it legal please!

I know the guy who is exporting them from Iceland....would think they break the bill off before they pack them.

The replace mack as a bait and level squid for fish eaters, but aren't flatfish bait. More oil than mack, tougher and stays working for several casts.

We sell them in our shop, and to be honest, generally about 90#% of the anglers who bought them are hooked, they buy these over the macks...

A few have told us they let them defrost for 2 - 3 days before hand...

If it works use it...although one or 2 have said they found nothing special when using them....
