Hi Guys
 
Starting to wonder just how many species of fish this little lure is suited to.
So far ive seen Yellas, Bass, Bream, Flathead and now Trout.
Little gem of a lure.

Jamie, the ol Wasp would have to be one of the most under rated lures of the modern era. So many guys I know swear by them for fresh and salt work. They just didn't seem to spread the word too far...Wink
I blame the ol 'secret fishermans business' attitude LOL

Cheers Darbs

I also believe there is another problem in play and that's supply. Most tackle shops these days either sell commercially made mass produced lures from Australia, Japan or the USA and ignore our local products. It really cheeses me off. We could help the situation somewhat by creating an on-line list of local producers and how to contact them. For example I would have loved to buy more of the Eddy lures etc but could not find them locally at all.

Hi Ropes
 
The supply problem is basicly why ive set up the online store with the full range of Eddy Lures now.
Got to say there hasnt been an overwheliming responce to the store but it hasnt been advertised much and many wouldnt know it exists.
 
Bob
Thats the MINI BUSTER you are reffering to I believe.
Ive caught some trout on those little fellas as well but they were a dynamite Bass lure.

 I think Ropes & Darcy are pretty much on the money with their thoughts. Tony I like the Idea of a lure contact list. You should try to get lures in SA from shops, where snapper and whiting are general focus.  Then I wouldnt have to follow up with my contact list.
