Thanks very much for posting the pics Keith . I ordered the stuff from Fishtek , Gerry\'s and Veals yesterday afternoon at 2-30 pm and it all came in the post today .

Does anyone bother to superglue the lure to the hook ???

Those fat body grubs from Jerry\'s really look the part mind

[KeithB]

No problem Dave, I probably could of made the pics a tad bigger.

That\'s canny service, Ian must just be unlucky, his order from fishtek took about a fortnight.

[MikeR]

Look good them Dave. I\'ve been waiting a week for an order from Fishtek. I\'ve definately had better service from other companies.

[DaveMason]

Yeah , I heard about the slow response from fishtek . I only ordered 20 lumi shads and they were straight here though .

Any advice on the superglue ????

[KeithB]

Aye, don\'t get it on ya fingers then pick yer nose

Sorry m8, couldn\'t resist.

[Topecatcher]

Don\'t bother with the glue Dave they don\'t come off and after a couple of ling the jelly might want changing.
With the fishtek shads try wetting the shad and hook or even put them on the hook in a bucket of water you\'ll find them easier to slide on the hook.

OOOOOOOOOOOw Shiney,great pics, must get mine ready for the new season

[MikeR]

Dave, I notice that you use trebles and not rippers on your pirks. Do you reckon the trebles are better?

[DaveMason]

just personal preference Mike , I consider rippers too savage and unsporting . Just me like .

[Norman]

Seriously , (just for once) for those that have not used these sort of lures before, be careful when storing them (if for long period of time ie 6 months or more) as they melt into each other. Difficult to explain but long term contact of these lures with one another cause the naterial to fuse together so you end up with one lump. Suggest if your not using them for a length of time then wrap them seperately in paper as you would with lugworm. ....... not a joke , honest .........

[DaveMason]

There\'s a warning label on the packet Norman , strange but true .

[Marc]

I\'ve got about 5 thousand of the self sealable plastic type bags about 6\" square what we used for the shop. I\'ll give yous a load when I next see yous as they are ideal for storing them individually. If anybody else wants any give me a shout.

[DaveMason]

Marc,

I\'ll have a couple of dozen - can ya fill them with sarnies first as well like :P

[Marc]

Nee bother, I think they are in packs of 500, I\'ll put some down on Dolly for you. Bacon might be cold though
