Loom band lures....

#1 Post by mackfish »

I saw on Facebook somewhere, a guy using lures made from them loom band things that are all the craze with the young folk...

Any of you try it!?...I'm thinking about getting the niece to make a few from different colours..black, red, green and white!..the guy on Facebook caught pollock on them...

Could be interesting!!
sure, its not raining between the showers!

Fish are stupid and if hungry will attack anything put in front of them that resembles a fish.[img]http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/01/y8ahu3uq.jpg[/img]
