i ran an experiment before hand and put a few cuts of each skirt on a zman along eith some other plastics. After a few weeks skirts were fine and nothing noticable, the other plastics were showing melting signs after a few days.

Yeah sorry i said stinger because that's what it's doing.. Should have said trailing hook.happyfriggincamper wrote: ↑Fri Aug 09, 2019 4:00 pmYeah, those were the weedless i were looking for. When you mentioned stinger, i thought you were referring to this style of trailer specifically.Sinsemilla wrote: ↑Fri Aug 09, 2019 2:00 pmThe ones i saw at aussie angler were Decoy Dream worm hook or Decoy KG worm hook. I can't remember exactly which ones but they definitely didn't have split rings.

My terminology could be off - but thought stinger generally related to those, see them on those ecogear vibes and such.
After a bit of googling, looks like there were a few options i could have gone. Will see how the circles go - gotta get a take or two first. If no good, oh well - fishing, always bloody learning haha.
What if the fish that you try them on hits and misses and its a metery! you'll be kicking yourself

Re: Spinnerbait and chatterbait upgrades
Firstly, Happy F Camper
I am in awe of those lures and the pimping that you've done. And nice listening to you guys and the logic behind some of the things you guys are talking about.
On buying in on the circle hooks , , , , I have on occasion, when I have tied (snelled) two hook set ups for strip baits or Pillies, used a circle hook on the leading hook and a suicide on the trailing hook. BUT it would be interesting to hear how your lures go , , , , always worth a try, you just never know.
I like the "what if" lessons , , , , they sting , , , , but boy do you learn and never forget
Cheers Gentlemen,
Bugatti , , , , a life of what ifs
