Mcarthy SP Dhuies
Well, after hearing all the rage and good reports on the Mcarthy SP's, decided to buy some from All Boat Business and headed out today to 14m just behind 3 mile from Hillarys. First drop and up came a 48cm dhu, not big, but a good start. Released this one, then dropped down again and didnt even get a chance to Jig it. Dropped it straight down the throat of a 4kg dhu. Man, they are a lot of fun in shallow water on light gear! Landed this one, then as i was about to spike it, it gave a kick and was released back! But not before we took a couple of pics! Not on camera though, on the phone by my mate! Oh well, at least I got to see it, and I know its there for next time. Wind then blew up, so we headed in! But I am very impressed with these placcies, and will def be buying more of them in the future! Great fun, and well worth the money spent! will be heading out on thurs night to chase some pinkies off hale rd, so hopefully the placcies will do the goods agian. Colour was the baby elk 5 inch! ABSOLUTELY LOVE EM! CANT RECOMMEND EM ENOUGH!

Another plastic addict those baby elf look the goods and they certainly catch the fish I just got oceansides last two packets the snapper rip them to pieces so thought I would get a few backups for the weekend. Sounds like a good day out I bet u were a bit suprised how good they work I know I was good to see your doing the catch and release thing even with a 4kg fish :-) spike their head on the boat floor not the side wall they do kick about when u try and drive a spike in their brain well done though still a memorable catch for u
Play hard fish harder

haha, yeah, hindsight is a wonderful thing! I will not do that again, thats for sure! Yeah, those baby elf are dynamite! I think next time i see em ni store, will buy 5 or 6 packs! wonder how long they last? only bad point is they are not as durable as the snapbacks, but small price to pay for their performance!
