Just thought with all the marlin mayhem at the moment...
I wanted to find out what has been the best or luckiest lure on your boat so far and at what position. For me it has been the right corner with a pink and black williamson skirt 20cm long.
Any reports on the larva skirts that have been heavily promoted this year?

dont knock on deaths door... ring the doorbell and run... death hates that!!
Pakula cockroach in lumo green and blue angel in same size both got hit but lumo did the trick this time ..Matt
A bad days fishing has got to be better than any day at work......
Pretty sure there was a poll on this a few weeks back, check it out. Think purple and black got a lot of mentions.
Larva in dark blue,short corner for me.
Life is short fish hard!!!
21,6 Sea Fox WA Pro ....
This was my most successful lure on my last trip. Pakula cockroach in purple/blue run in the shortest position about 10 m back. I also got a hit on a blue/silver lure, but no hits on a number of different lumo patterns
Purple and black did the most damage last week with lumo gree a close second. These were Ebay specials . We don't use anything over $10.00 a lure. Shotgun and long corner for ours

Just bought one of them myself. Is the rig it comes with OK or did you re-reig it?Originally Posted by Horse
they work ok on toothless fish. i lost 2 saturday to some not so toothless fish. heard of rig failure from cobiaman the same day but not the details... i am now rigging a few with single strand wire.
fishing's as simple as 3 P's - patience, perserverance and PLASTIC!
Nothing wrong with the lure,line broke at the reel, more like a nick in the line or something.
G'day
Horse, is that the prowler from escapin tackle?

The ones we used were straight out of the packet and worked fine. They were the ones Bull bought. Mine were sitting on my driveway at home
The ones I have bought have been modified with wire under the resin head and a touch of a flame to the cut off end of the crimp leader to make a ball too big to pull through

Yea, the fish ran hard for a bit then popped a few cm off the reel. There was a definite kink in the line near the spool just before the break

Yea Mate
Great service and their gear works fine. I personally think its a big w@NK spending the best part of a days earnings on a piece of plastic and resin getting towed at 15km/hr +. The fish see no fine detail at that speed

i have been using escapin tackles lures straight from the packet and havn't had any problems . they give very good service for an ebay store
G'day
I bought the same set of prowlers off them a few weeks ago, great service and stoked with the lures.
I did change the hooks to gamagatsu SL12's in 10/0 though, even though the original hooks look fine, i've heard of enough to warrant the change over.
Will be out in my 15'er tomorrow and Friday pulling these around, cannot wait!
