wolfgang Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Howdy Raiders, I've been chatting to Dan from Byron a while back and he made mention of fish being caught on lollies. Since than I've been playing silly buggers. Now before the purists fall off their chairs backwards and so forth it's not a case of swapping your Berkleys, Squidgies for a packet of mixed lollies but for a bit of fun and to get a laugh I've had varying degrees of success. Milko's and Sour Snakes seem to go great guns while Chico's and mint leaves well.......I've had to scoff those down due to no interest. Here's a couple of Pics of this evenings effort. I'll include a sensible pic of a flattie on a 2 inch new penny shrimp. Anybody else had much luck with more unusual lures out there???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest danielinbyron Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 G'day mate... Yeah the flathead were thick when i think it was Ewan that put a milk bottle down to get past the chopper tailor when they were hitting the bait on the way down and had success.. maybe we should go for a jewie on a big red snake.. no pics made it up...

Cheers Evil Yeah you can't really chew on a Gulp in the same fashion. Mind you a milk bottle has bugger all action. I'm taking a doubting Thomas down tonight to try the same trick. I lost a massive, massive Flathead on Saturday night out of the same hole I caught the big girl earlier this year. I got two very good looks at her from about 2 metres out and I'd say she's a metre in length and very possibly the same big girl!! I'll take the camera down (just in case) but might try the more conventional market brand plastics if I have a crack at her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Aron Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Saw a doco on foxtel about a month ago (how do they make that?) showed how they make lolies etc, at the end of the show they mentioned that there product was popular with fishermen. They were making gummy worms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewan Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Nice sourworms, those fluro/soft pink and green colours look preety hot!! Yeah a friend Daz and I stayed out for far too long on the boat on the local reef. We had no food so I was scouring deep into the hidden corners of the boat to gather month old muesli bars, old moth ball eucalyptous lollies and a moldy old bag of milk bottles all of which we proceeded to eat then catch flathead on!!
