that's an odd one with the wrasse on a spinner alan. never seen that before. fair play to you sticking with the lures. after about 50 casts my attention drifts back to thinking,

"i bet if i had a baited hook out there i'd be cleaning up"

:lol: :lol: :lol: . what can i say, i'm a creature of habit :lol: :D
