Here is the definitive article on Springer, written by Bruce Black with permission, and courtesy of RSD, the great SA Angling Magazine.
Springer on lure (http://www.ultimateangling.co.za/articles/Springer article - RSD.pdf)
It's a big file (6meg).

Nice article. I like his note on improving the chances of a successful release at the end. Handle your fish with care folks.
Oh, and PS: You may need a slightly heavier Flouro leader than 0,042mm w;k

Reckon it's a great article. Bruce is a member of UA... Tekwaan is his nick.

Oh it is not fair to awaken a dream like that!!
Long ago I use to target these in the Keurbooms river! Right under the N2 bridge, drifting boat and dryflyn pink prawn!!
Some of my fondest childhood fishing memories.
I am on my way to Port Alfred and the owner of the guest house where I am staying regularly catch some.
That would be a Christmas present of note!
