there's loads, my main ones are

Miuras mouse ( diff tails on them + spares and options)
Real eels 30cm rigged shallow no weight
SG 4play V1 25 & 19 cm
River Roach 18cm
Hooligan Roach 23cm
Line Thru Trout 20cm
Have you got a link for the different tails you use on the Mouse please mate?
The most commonly used combos with Miuras are Pig Shads, Gator Gums or Catfish and Wingman Curlys. Basically paddle for active fish, curly when it's slower going... you can use anything you want of course...

Spend over 100 euro and under £135, free shipping, no VAT.

I do well with the Fox-Rage-Pro-Grub---16cm - nice colours too.

Interesting, looks like a copy of an Eastfield Wingman Curly or did Eastfield copy Fox :shrug:
Whatever?
Happy to go cheap with soft plastics - unlike fine- tuned jerkbaits.
Whatever? I've made no reference to the price of anything, just commented on the look of them :shrug: Use what you like mate :thumbs:
Sorry Mark wasn’t sarcastic; merely reflecting that brand/ build/ reputation not the same concern with soft plastics, as hardbaits. :thumbs:
Oh God mate, don't apologise. That makes total sense now mate. Tight lines.

Hi,

I've been reading through the archive and been well inspired and informed. I'm about 2 weeks out from hitting the water in a spanking new boat with toys.

I'd like to ask the experienced lads on here, what are the essential lures in your bag / bucket?

Buster jerk, Salmo slider and Miuras mouse seem to be fairly popular (any colour recommendations on these) I'll need to uprate my soft plastics for trolling, anyone any steers for other good trolling lures?
Topwater or just below

add long Bomber A jointed pref

the hooks release on a take , i would have thought so they cant use the lure to throw the hooks ........found its easier to unhook a fish

quite an easy lure to fish with as very slow sink rate ..........
