Good advice, just a shame you didn’t do a close up of you putting the hook and lure on right. Will have to try these out 👌🏻

[@Eoghanbass2000]

You must have heard my coffee machine..! :-)

[@henrygilbey302]

good timing?!

[@timclarke1791]

Great idea Henry do you think tungsten putty what carp anglers use mould some on the hook by the weight to give extra weight don't know how well it would stay on but got to be worth a try 🎣

[@henrygilbey302]

I like the look of that stuff, but I don't trust it to withstand a lot of casting

[@i8farming477]

Is there some good place’s on the east coast from Dunbar as far as Eyemouth that you know is good lure fishing? Lovin the video as I use to watch you back in the day on the Tv with your ponytail I’m getting back into fishing again 👍

[@andrewwarburton3943]

See that large Nuclear cube at the side of the A1, the warm water from the outflow is worth a shot. 😉

[@henrygilbey302]

Many thanks for the kind words, but sorry, I don't know the east coast at all

I paid around 30 quid for a box of these soft plastics a year ago, it does feel like money well spent, especially as I have hard plastics that cost the same as the whole box.

[@henrygilbey302]

yep, I am still using samples of these lures, I repair them with Mend-It or the Savage Gear Fix-It stuff, they keep on going
