I've bought a load of new floating and shallow diving plugs from www.aliexpress.com under the seapesca brand for around € 1 each!
Very nice they are too, no idea if they will catch fish mind! ;0)

The BM is a superb lure. Worth buying and trying. Are you fishing boat or shore? No harm to get a 25g 120mm in Khaki and also blue and maybe a 12g 120 if you are in need of something lighter to flick. After that you can experiment with colours. There are copies available on Aliexpress if you want to try them. The bodies are very good. I haven't tried the copy heads.

If you are mainly shore fishing opt for the Fiish Crazy Eel. I find the minnow more suited to boat fishing.

I have had plenty of shore pollack on the minnow however if you can still find them the Savage gear sandeel slug has produced more fish for me, I find they are easier to work that the Fiiish. I have been looking for some black slugs but it seems they no longer make them and the only ones I can find are sandeel colour
