Bill kindly sent me another lg Fuselier to try in PNG.
I put it on the Downrigger on a 24kg outfit.First bite was this Small Whaler Shark.
Second bite was a sizzler and the lure was never to be seen again,Ho Hum!
That will teach me for not using 60kg.

How can you master luremakers be so neat and organized?????? You would have a heart attack if you walked in my shed.
Great lures and shop.

Verlon while I am far from a master lure maker, far from it, probably would be better if I spent more time on lures and less time cleaning up
