I've got a few similar, they are the river2sea brand I think it was. Duck into Rays Outdoors and check them out, I paid under $5 each on a discount sale.

I have the purple/red lucanis, though haven't had a chance to properly use it. My missus and I were at Tackleworld and was like, "OMG I saw the guy catching big fish with this one, you must buy it", and just grabbed it off the shelf haha

flathead love them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! unfortunately. but snapper have failed to take one over 3 seasons. i have not been lucky with them yet. but i reckon drifting westernport might be a lot better luck. have thrown them out in utter chaos sessions, and baits get taken so jig gets left in rod holder. maybe its color scheme?? who knows!!
You know when they have a fishing show on TV? They catch the fish and then let it go. They don't want to eat the fish, they just want to make it late for something.

I had a go yesterday like every other fishermen in the Melbourne, seems every boat in Melbourne was bopping on the water.

The Jigs did nothing for me, infact everything I tried yesterday to pillies, silver whiting caught nothing for me.
I ended up chasing squid and caught 2 rippers at about 2 kgs and a little tacker at about 1/2kg. Caught at Altona Bay on yellowinsh jigs.
