I bought some of those last year but never really tried them properly...used them for pike with a twin tail jelly. Bound to add a little something extra to jellying for pollock, might even pick up extra species with the attraction of the little spoon? I've seen gurnards gobble shads before buts its been a rare occurrence but i know they really tend to be attracted to those little vibrating spoons.

By the way did you ever find a place to pick up those coloured leads?

looking forward to getting the oppurtunity to using them,

i got them for fishing for the pollack especially when its thick with mackeral, as the hook with a shad would be to big

nothing worse than being plauged wiyh mackeral in a comp
