I just got a few packs of these in from the states today and man I can see why they are supposed to be the most durable softies on the market.

The are wickedly soft and super stretchy.

The 5" (125mm) ones that I have can stretch to over 500mm!!! without any hint of it wanting to tear. Amazing!

Looking forward to testing them out this weekend.

I still have another 20 or so packs coming from the states with the colours that I really think will be most effective.

Will let you guys know when I have an excess of them and put a few bags up for sale.

Those look splendid Josh. You are the man when it comes to finding sps around the world. I hear there are some made in a remote valley in Outer Mongolia which you have not yet sampled. Best you get yourself out there right now.

If you call barracuda a fish with "sharp toofs", they handle them with no problem. Of course your fluorocarbon leader is another thing. Don't want to hijack the thread but has anybody used sp's with a wire leader?

Fishslayer: I've been useing strike kings for about 6 months now and they are awesome. Theres about 3 different stlyes of the 3x 5" jerk shad
definitly my favourite softbait and generally what i catch most on. The strike king in this snaps mouth had already caught about 15 snaps similar to this one, It looks as good as it did fresh out of the packet. Those bass assasins aren't bad either.

Righto fella's these lures have arrived.

I have these colours for sale if you want any $10/pkt delivered.....

They come in packets of 4, you may think $2.50 is steep for a lure but when you use them and see that you are still on your first lure out of the packet when your mates have gone through 2 or more entire packets of Gulp's that sometimes get torn off with a single bite you will realise that they are unbeatable value for money.

Colours I have for sale are.....

Smokey Shad


Blue Glimmer Pearl Belly


Ice
