Re: Snappy response to 13FISH call nets five anglers

Glad to see those Bas###ds got caught. No excuse for taking undersized fish.

Thanks for that Chad, have been looking for a place within around half an hour to make a trip to on a regular basis.

Cheers.

We used to make our own with tinsel after xmas. They didnt work too bad.
Bonus was that they were cheap to make also and i like to think they improved our chances. Used to use one like a surf popper when surf fishing and got a few sambos on it.

Any help is great, Thanks
