SG Salt Seeker.

[Trampster]

Mr Postie has not long left having brought me some goodies today, amongst which was a pair of SG Salt Seekers. I've got a couple of lighter seekers already, but wanted some heavier ones to use with the new Abu Tormentor lure rod. Itching to get out and give them a try, but need the tides to be right for the marks I can access when the holiday makers have gone for the day.

The old version in pearl did for my only solway bass so far.

Looks like they have jazzed up the paintwork a bit.

They would make a nice pair of earrings dave

They do raise the old Chestnut of Single or Treble hooks. They come with both. I did change some of my lure hooks to Singles but unsure which is best when it come to catch rate Vs. Fish Welfare.

Treble all the way

Treble all the way

Thanks John. ??

Good lures!
Certainly trebles (no more than 2) for top water lures but I'm beginning to believe that a single on the rear of any subsurface plug works a treat (perhaps even better than a treble as far as hook hold on better fish is concerned?) and certainly makes unhooking far easier. I don't use trebles on flies or SPS.....and they hook up well....

Singles every time.

Tramps, I am going slightly off message to ask the guys what after market singles they buy as replacements?

Mustad kaijus, 1/0

No Problem Thrash - all relevant! I think the last ones I bought were as EastCoastGreg, Mustad Kaijus 1/0, but they looked a bit small on arrival so also bought a pack of Cox & Rawle inline 2/0. Both good quality hooks.

Thanks both, I need some trebles replacing.
