Leonard Brown –
Used this lure during a morning trip off the coast of Queensland. It attracted several snapper and tuna bites. The color stood out in the water and the action was natural. Great for small bait fishing.
Keith Slater –
Fished with this lure in a rocky area near the coast. Caught a few tailor fish. The chartreuse color worked well in the clear water. A bit more visible than other imitations.
