This was a day (19th March 2021) when I was lucky enough to be in the Mersey River when there was a massive Mayfly hatch, the trout were having a great time sipping them off the surface. This was the best hatch I've seen on this river since 2009 when I was lucky enough to see a monster Dun hatch in the stretch of river..(see photo) The trout fishing was tough going due them feeding on the Mayflys.. Actually seeing what I did was the highlight of the day for sure, the trout I caught were a bonus.. Massive dun hatch, Mersey River. Weegena. (25-11-09) cheers Adrian

Yes got about 6 jigs in that brand,they work just the same as more expensive brands.But then so do the cheap ebay $4 no name brands,just depends on one's colour choice for the day.

Yes, I've got a couple. I mainly use the Mick's Jiggers, which are from a local guy who gets them through Rui). The pink, yellow and KGW ones are amazing. I still have a couple of yellow yamashita's but have moved away from the more expensive yozuri's - which I used to use exclusively. Rui is a great guy and stands by his products. They do work and they last as well David

I stick with 3 and 3.5 jigs. I've got some in both sizes that a specifically for shallow water which have a slower sink rate. But for heavier jigs I just add weight to a standard jig. You can do this simply by putting a 3gm or 5gm ball sinker on your leader just above the swivel. Or better use specific sinkers that you can clip to the front of the jig. I use Nakazima sinkers. Rui sells sinkers for his jigs. I like adding weight rather than heavier jigs, so I can use any of the jigs I already have.

Best thing to see when it happens so rarely. When I was a little fella living at Barmera I remember seeing big carp jumping out of the water about sunset. I know now that big carp will eat the smallest insect. Works for fly fishing but when bait fishing I still believe big worms will catch the biggest fish. Love my scrubworms.

I have a squid jig addiction and currently have jigs by Yamashita, Daiwa, Shimano, Duel (YoZuri) and Rui. I like the Rui jigs quite a bit. Overall the jigs are not quite the same quality as the Daiwa, but they would be close to the others. What sets the Rui jigs apart is the wide range of colours and size and how readily available they are at a good price. In the Rui jigs I really like the red head and this is the only brand of red head I buy (I use it a lot so have to replace it a couple of time each year due to snags). I've also had a lot of success with the mullet and one that looks a
