After mad dash from work to tackle shop only to find it closed 20 minutes early I decided to invest in some artificial baits so I dont have to worry about more points on my license.
I got Berkley Gulp, white rag,peeler crab,mack strips and red earthworm for my trout endevours on ebay togeether for €20
Has anyone any experience positive hopefully with artificials?

Re: Artificial Baits
had a nice bass on the peeler crab about 3.5 lb er was using fresh big lug and rag on the other two hooks
and it was pitch black
was my fishing buddy sick after slaggin them off

I spin storm sand eel and find them excellent for pollock. Have used the rag too but never caught anything although that isnt strange
