i didnt think you could cast
i didnt think you could cast a 24 oz very far, your rod would break either that or your arms. seriously have you caught anything out deep with it

I've been staring at that lid
does it say "wanker"? I had to ask, it was bugging me.
Quick question:
Interesting rig, but why have a spinning blade on what is essentially a "bottom" rig so to speak? Unless you rip the bait through the water to allow it to spin and create a bubble trail, but in my eyes that defeats the purpose of having the heavy "nose" weight on it?

i would presume the spinner
i would presume the spinner would move with the current while the bait is moving around behind the running sinker

Huggy, I reckon its the lid
Huggy, I reckon its the lid of a wheelie bin and the word would be WANNEROO. Then again it could be wanker

Well
its movement would be somewhat limited by the fact that the weight has it pinned to the deck, thereby limiting its effectivness? The blade is designed to spin on a pivot point when water pressure hits its (ie its dragged through the water). At best it would flap about a bit in the current.

you would probably be right
you would probably be right as you would fish with the spinners on for trout but if it works for tailor who cares what the spinner does. obviously Sherbs does well with it

I'd contend
he would do well with or without it to be honest.
To me its a rig thats more style than substance, but if Sherbs is happy with it and it catches him fish then who am I to argue?

That weight is only light
And you reel in slow or fast , You work it like a spinner
And the weight helps you get a better and longer cast .

and the mystery is revealed.......thats a nice idea.
No good where I fish (too many rocks and snags) but spot on for a bit of beach fishing.

It works ok where we fish Huggy (wink wink)
But you do have to be mindful of the rocks
