Glide baits

Woody, and anyone else who may know im a little set in my ways and am looking for a cheap glidebait in the 6-8 inch range thats like a slammer drop belly or the ace sweet shad in action but this is the main point thats cheaper than those any ideas??

Not too sure of anything under that price range really, but you could pick up a slider for around a fiver.A straight retrieve gives sweet gliding motion, no need to even jerk it.

How about the fox predator bullnose? the micro's go for £5

Aye that would be me, but seein a drawing as opposed to pulling one apart its like the difference between

remember sex education in school

now think of the real thing

kinda similar. yes i know i may have a problem with fishing before anyone else points out the obvious flaw with my logic

but there are a few similaritys between building/fishing with lures both involve wood/soft plastics, rubber ryhtmic hand motions. getting sticky and smelly hands, trying to get hard thing into tight holes, frustration when things go to quick, and too slow

and the rush when you hit a fish on it is well not to put to fine a point on it kind of the climax

Right John, he has taken some tracking down but here you go.....they are spot on and all 5 seducers I bought fro hi caught on there first time out

Russ Fields Lures

fox bullnose is ok, crap made though they dont last five mins if ya jack bashing!! salmo slider is the bomb in our waters thats wot i would go 4, plenty of colours to!! visit tackle bargains.co.uk buy one get one free i think??!!

Finally another piker that agrees the slider is a fantastic fish catcher, Ive used it now for a good year or so,and is the one lure I can always rely on. And as for the tacklebargains deal, Ive hammered that for a good while now, I always order about 50quids worth,as the lures they chuck in are pretty good too.....but not as good as salmo's :evil:

yeh they work well
pretty much every salmo does the job

Just received a Jerkbait from Graham Slater probably not a name most of you have heard of, apart from possibly Danny I have to say that its top class, a mix of glide and flipper, deadly on the right water

yeh seen a few used wen we hav gone to pits in the south east, henry gilbey had one that was personally signed by the tester, wen we did a photo shoot for his website www.henry-gilbey.co.uk
wot size did u buy?? im sure he used a 6-7inch slider thing looked cool

6" Slider in perch pattern, dont get me wrong there no Cobbs but it will have its venue, probably Windermere over the reed beds

think his was blue tang roach, looked good, do u use any of the gopher musky baits?? they make some decent slide/glide lures!! but expensive......
