This was a nice surprise for me when I got home from hospital this afternoon.. A box of goodies arrived.. :-D
Yes, I'm going to give the switchblades a go on the trout down here, I picked out the colours that I thought would get the trouts attention.
cheers

Hope all went well Adrian! Robbie Alexander put up a recent video on blades for trout on his YouTube channel robbie fishing. Think it was titled "most underrated trout lure" or something to that effect.

Hold the phone, did I sleep through Christmas , , , , again :(


Adrian, God must love you, a timely "gift" to perk your spirits , , , , and I can just imagine Pam would have been chuffed for you too, knowing what you're going through (I think Pam has a Hotline to God, seeing how she is such an Angel).

I'm going to go out on a very solid limb about your selection of switchblades and say "If Adrian picked em, they work" :nw:

I'm smiling as well Adrian, a real feel good story, Thanks AND ENJOY :tu:


Cheers, Bill

TT switch blade for trout? I'm intrigued.
They're pretty heavy, I assumed they're for deep water. But who knows.
Let us know how you go Adrian. Cant wait for the report.

Thanks Bill, I feel they'll do well on the trout too.. & yes Pam in an Angel for sure.. :tu:

Seb, these are small light weight blades, the Ghost blades only weigh 2.5 grams as they're graphite.. where as the Switchblades are 3.5 grams.
so I think they'll be okay in the Meander & Mersey Rivers..
