Decorating your trace.. What do you use ?

[Fritz]

You are their deezynking. I had the same happen to me  some years back sailing back from Brazil to Cape Town. I ran out of lures that I was using behind the boat to get fresh fish for our trip( 32 days).
 
I ended up using some moring line and bound a packet of crisps inside out onto the mooring line. About 15 min. later I was gutting a masive big Dorado bull. " that was the best tasting meat I ever had "

Plastic glow in the dark squid skirts on all my slides and pink/red or translucent with glitter on the edible traces , sometimes a glow bead as well for added attraction, works for me.

I dont think that we have to do the skirt thing. I have many time fished without one. Particulerly when the fish are biting and I run out of traces, I end up having to tie a nother one on the rocks while my mates are fishing and " bok koors" sets in you forget about the skirt but at the end of the day you where still getting fish just as fast as your mates.
 
I think that the flash in our skirts or the fact that they glow is purely as a added atraction. Hopefully it catches the eye when the shark is "down wind " from the bate

My choice of skirts will be as said, the pink yamashita skirts on slide rigs. Always produced a fish or three for me. Regarding the blue foam, it does work. On our trip to chidenguelle in 2009, I were fishing with white foam, and Jan (skrops) were fishing with blue foam. Guest what, the entire week we were there, he was the only one to get into fish everyday!! For a whole week!! It works!
