Saw you catching some beauties with them on your vid. Dya find colour makes a difference? I've had some good takes on the black but not the other lighter colours. May have to persist. Lost all the black ones haha.

First , thanks for watching my video :)

I don’t think colour matters too much.
That entire range is pretty nifty;
The brown prawn has done really well for me.

The black is great when the water is a bit discoloured.

Just don’t strike too hard, more wind it on and set the hooks.
You want the fish to do most of the work there, with small hooks you can pull em out easy.

Size 16 decoys
