have you tried the soft flying fish yet , are you going to fish it alone or as a daisy chain - does it have a through hole ie nose to tail or just till the hook cavity ?

I will definately try it alone on teh corner and out rigger, I will also try it a a single bird ahead of the lure.

I think these will make beeeeg problems on a daisy chain with all the jumping they do.

I only see the hole up to the hook cavity.

The plastic is awesome, it can streeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetch like crazy and so will be super durable.

I have not used any yet as I just got them, will be rigging them this week and try on the weekend

as a bird inftont of a lure may not work , normally you want a buoyant /wood bird that holds it shape these may fold but worth a try . was thinking of an inline daisy chain with 5 rigged behind each other .keep me posted please on results .

The wings are stiff and it is suggested by the manufacturer to use it this way by inserting a wire through the middle.

I mailed them - no reply. Phones constantly engaged this morning. Tried 4 times to phone.

Mike, If you speak to them, please ask them to check mail.

I will, try call him on cell, I know they just opened a new branch at Honda Marine in Pinetown and this could be why there is a delay with all the moving around of stock and shop fittings
Cell: Lionel - 082573435

No I can assure you it is not like that, he is an extremely helpful person, these guys have been tops to me more than I can ever explain and so I will vouch for them.
It is a family run business and they are serious. I will tell him tomorrow anyway, but perhaps there is a line problem or something. Call him on his cell.

The small Squidz have been made into a Daisy chain on 300lb leader and on the last one I inserted a 1oz weight and at the end there is a snap swivel where I can add it in front of any lure or I can run as a Teaser without hooks or I can insert a hook on the snap swivel
