I was suprised at the force
I was suprised at the force they hit the lures,,hooked themselves real well,,,
I went back with some squid lures the next day,,thought i would be killing the pig with the proper lures,,got a feed but my biggest was on the ecogear and they seemed more timid,,
I guess if squid want a top surface type lure they have to make a big commitment straight away and go hard ,,will prawn lures they spend a bit more time sussy them out and sometimes turning thier noses up at the offering.
