    Just keep at it mate, keep a diary, jot down all relevant details when you get home.
    It all comes down to time on the water.
    Also, I'm lucky I've got a good job and a good missus.

    Cheers Jeff.

    Seems there's a few doubters out there about the lure I used. PM's, posts etc.

    Believe what you want boys.

    They look trick, nice fine tail too. Does the tail get a good fluttering action or is it fairly stiff?

    Jeff, thanks for sharing, excellent pics, and a top session!
    Appreciate you sharing the info on that lure. Interesting looking lures, and how did you come across them, ie, did you see them in the shop and say they look the goods ?
    So often people seem to be following trends in lures rather than eye balling them in the shop and having a think about how they would present in the water

    Bloody good effort mate, and how was the Queeny ?

    The tail flutters beautifully. They are a very soft placcy and rip easily, normally one fish per lure. They're dynamite. They are hollow, I'm using very little weight on the jighead, 1/8 is the heaviest I've used on them. Being hollow, you can add your own scent and "berley" to them, this oozes out of the open tail, and also adds extra weight.
    A little bit more preparation, but I'm using a syringe filled with my special berley paste and filling the lure up a bit.

    Dids, Got them from Barra Jacks at Noosaville, but I'm sorry, I think all of those type are gone. See Ben.
    I actually bought them for floating into a snag for the jackies, but they've been working on the trevors like a charm.
    I've only got 1 box left, I've gotta save them. I think they've stop makig them?

    Cheers.

    Thanks Dirty, They've been in the shop for ages, but for some reason I don't think they sold too well.
    Saw them in a clearout bin a couple of weeks back, thought they'd be good for drifting into a snag for jacks.
    When I was playing with them at home, I thought I'd experiment with them and fill them with "bait".

    Queenfish was very, very ordinary. Very firm and tasteless flesh, last one I keep.

    Still some left at Barra Jacks....In that exact colour.

    They are a hand poured plastic are look great but I think they werent over popular due to them being quite expensive.

    Shame to hear the Queenfish was average

    How do the Diamond Trevs cook up ? you don't hear of too many people keeping any, are they too pretty for that, or protected, or just taste like old boots ?
