tonyb 1,017 Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 These young fellas never cease to impressMatt89 had his thinking cap on at the weekend and with a bit of scrap metal from the building site, some plastic eyes from"spotlight", a bit of lead and some superglue, he fashioned a couple of Blades in different sizes which proved to be better than Dynamite on a local Dam's Reddy population!!!He tried both the smaller and the bigger sizes and a steady stream of fish kept coming to the bankside!!My "Bigeye" couldn't keep up, Matt had a dozen before I got my first, then I had to poach out of the feeding shoal he had in front of him!! Good work mate, when's the patent coming out? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

disturbed1 0 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 well done!!!- sell them at the meetings and make some $$$ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tonyb 1,017 Posted February 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I can vouch for the vibration, it's even stronger than a manufactured blade and it has a very wide wobble, not a tight shimmy like the bought ones. I fancy that's what was driving the shoal to feed so well as reddys normally follow the first fish in which breaks the shoal up and makes 'em a bit more wary! not so with the BS (Building Site) Blade Quote Link to post Share on other sites
