Mad About Muppets
Where is the best place to buy assorted colour 3" Muppets in bulk. What colour in general is best and is it a bad idea to use muppets bigger than 3" for boat competitions?

I have seen six inch muppets used with two whole squid in the UK on wrecks outside Bristol, I think it is best to match their size to that of the baits...
One tip I was given about muppets (I think it was John Johnson, skipper of the Lady Clare out of Achill) was to put a bead or several above the hook to stop the muppet slipping down and covering the bait... FWIW...

Time spent fishing is never time wasted...
2015 targets - a triggerfish, a specimen bass, a three bearded rockling to complete the set and something big and toothy from certain north Mayo deep water marks
