smallmouth 1 Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 Was there a big hatch of 'vibrax' spinner's today??...Were they coming quickly off the water,or just a localised hatch that you happened to hit into Don't pay that Injun' any mind reload. Just so long as you fished them there vibraxes upstream AND dry, you weren't doing no wrong........... :whistle: Quote Link to post

robsharpe 1 Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 these are the ones reload well worth a try easily cast on a fly rod and deadly for rainbows and browns ,they are banned on a lot of still waters ,they can be fished just like a fly :whistle: not atrracting attention you can buy them in this country number one in gold tis the boy FLICKER SPINNERS Quote Link to post
Guest reload Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 Cheers Rob.....sneeky and under hand :whistle: I like it...just right for those still waters when nowt happening! Always worth trying something new The most important thing for me is useing a spinner of a decent weight and becoming used to it for flicking under brambles etc etc. I use spinners for those places too hard to get with the fly I think that why i have become stuck with the blue fox. I very rarely lose many of these as i am so used to them and the normark spinning rod. I suppose its like anything really, you get used to your gear. Quote Link to post
