Some new lures


There has not been much chance of getting out on the River Dove over the last few days due to the extra water but this morning I was perked up by the arrival of some new lures. They were shad patterns by Big Hammer supplied by AGM tackle. So to keep up my spirits I sneaked an hour on the canal this afternoon and the Silver Phantom (!) above accounted for a nice perch of about a 1lb. I had cut it down to 2.5" and mounted as shown on the website. Unfotunately I had left my camera at home so no picture. I only ordered the stuff a couple of days back so thumbs up to AGM for prompt delivery.
Happy New Year all!!

  1. Been poaching PoD again? Lol! Big Hammers, you can't beat 'em. Every time I go on AGM's website I come away with something!

  2. Glad you put the new lures to good use Dave. I fancy trying the crayfish that AGM sell; I suspect they might work well for the stripeys too!

  4. Thanks for the comments gents.

    Ian, that is an outrageous suggestion I am a gentleman piscator ;)

    Rob, those rubber crays might go well at Eaton Dovedale.

    Rob T, with the state of the rivers round here at the mo it is a great alternative.
