Is it a good sign ? ........

I must have a sail down to st. Mary's this spring

Aye Ray theres a few sweet spots around there mainly early spring - easters my guide, especially as its fairly late this year.
With all the shad making I couldn't resist a special St Marys' lure, it's a grub curly tail that I used to be able to get in the right size and colour but havn't seen them around for a while so ....... make my own the models done and the first half mould is curing as I type fingers crossed it's as good as the ones I used to buy....

My god Norm, you deserve to win the heaviest fish comp every month with them and all your efforts. Cracking job mate, can't wait to see the results once yous are into the action. Great stuff.:thumbup::thumbup:

 

[Norman]

Aye arthur, of course there is just that little problem yet ....... they might not catch

will have to wait and see .....

[Norman]

They've probably been gorging on left over Mc Donalds and fish n chips Norm so it could be that there are more and more take aways opening up

Like you say though, i hope its a good sign...

I had a ride out for an hour this morning before dinner, but nothing to report...

Normally see them diving and catching baby flatties,but they've changed diet now that there's rumor there's been traces of seahorse found in them

[The Jester]

They will definately catch Norm, as good as the bought ones i reckon but with more satisfaction using them .....I think you should hold off using them till around September to give the rest of us a chance
