Crazy wacky colours!

#1 Post by Livid »

Just found some wee lures there that were bought for me last year from Lidl, they ain;t anything great, far from it and the colours put me off greatly, two are almost illuminous, DynoRod would be proud! Anyhoo, was wondering if i should just disgard them altogether or is there a chance of Pollack off the rocks with them? I'm an eternal pessimist but the colours just annoy me :?

BTW can people just ignore the Liverpool figure in the pic, there's an Ian Wright one on the other side and i've no idea where they came from or why they're still there... :roll:

They look like the good ould fashioned "rubber eel" they will catch pollack from shore and boat.

What size do your dolls blow up to?........ :P

if these are the same lures as they sold last year i know several people that have done well with them from the boats at killybegs.

if used in the sea they might not last as long as expensive lures but i usually find that they have gone long before rust gets to them
