That one and its brother ...ummm... gave their lives that otehr lures may last a little longer. That was at the lacipede islands in WA, and in that one morning I lost...I think.... 17 lures. Including the two demons. Spanish mackerel were dynamite, and they were not hitting the lures as much as biting the line where it was racing thru the water lifting a wake after other fish had hooked up! Not a lot you can do about that really.... :-)

My trusty jitter bug lost its skirt so I am trying a new UV variety to see if there is any difference in hookup

Matching UV colours. 

But my next plan will be getting some of these http://www.yeehaa.co.nz/carpenter.poppers_8.html  And doing the same with two UV squid skirts stuff some Special Sauce up the skirt and see what happens...

Hey guys cool thread after reading it last night i had a play around this is what i came up with. Don't think they really count as inchiku jigs more like slow jig meets cyclops meets soft bait but its all i had to work with.
 
 
top one is 40 grams and bottom is 20 grams with a grub on the new worm hook will give them a go tomorrow
 
 
not as flash as yours but i think the extra dangley bits should get a few more hits than just the jig head.

Bought my first inchikus today. Couple of 60g Jitterbugs (blue), 40g Pro Hunter Prowler (pink). Looking forward to giving them a go this weekend.
What's the cheapest type of meat? Dear balls. They're under a buck.

jumped on the ship finatic. find some sign. straight to the bottom. 3 or 4 slow winds and that should get them. or slow mechanical jig if they are a bit more fiesty. keep line vertical at all times. 60g is my go to weight. blue jitterbug will be my first pick. especially under work ups

Cheers for the tips FA. Have a copy of the latest NZ Fishing World mag which has a bit of a guide to them too.

I'm starting to get the hang of these jitterbugs, caught 9 fat snaps and a JD on the hooks bay reef last sunday on 80 gram green lure using my overhead soft bait set - curado and backbone elite . The rod seems a little soft for this weight at 35 metres depth, so what gear are you experts recommending. I'm looking to get a more task-specific rod but can't seem to find much good advice.
Cheers
