danny, got half a freezer full yesterday, pretty easy to dig 2, most were only 8/12 inches down, going to give em a good trail over the next few weeks.
what impressed me with the panchenko is the hook up ratio compared to other surface lures, 99% so far.

james, 8) , a local bass angler came across it on the cunn. spit trapped/floundering in a gully, (me and a mate caught a 80lb. ray in same gully few years back) albacor tuna would have been taked in salmon drift nets whitin a mile of this spot every yr. up until the ban... i have also said on here that i have often seen largish very fast swiming fish here :idea: ..................... think it may have injured itself on the oyater tressels?
