Slinky Kate - Garage Day

[The Great Wallsendo]

At HQ currently with the skipper on full production mode gearing up for retirement




As a by product of testing the moulds there are often "samples"

Well it would be rude not to try them out

that ripper/muppet rig looks deadly

We've never used the Hartlepool style before...what are advantages?

ha tony you have caught me on the hop here

i have only started using them in anger the last few weeks(in hartlepool)

lets deal with the dis-advantages first

you have to work them very hard if unbaited

on rough ground or wrecks you need to be on your toes as they are made to snag(4 hooks)

you get quite a few foul hook ups

advantages if anything goes near its caught

very good for holding bait

the big big plus is they do work well sometimes out fishing other methods 2 to 1 but as any one that fishes knows "its on the day"

these are my personal observations and experiences and are in no way deemed to cover all operations of this lure

Well after reading the smoggy report it'd be rude not try them out oop North!
