Z Claw in Pink & White, Zonk and Tide Minnow

 

[keith Ogden]

heard plenty about the zonk and it is a contender dont know much about the z claw other than it been a topwater the only other experience i've had with walkers or sliders which the z claw looks like was a sammy 115 which i struggle to get to walk the dog but i am a relative novice ( 18 months ) at plugging how hard are the z claws to work.

I am also a novice Keith, but try Slow walk the Dog, if you reel it faster it will go just under the surface, Cracking casting lure as well !

ps. sorry about the small pics.

Keith ..
The Zclaws work themselves almost, you just have to impart a bit of life into them , on the retrieve pull them under and you can walk the dog sub surface !! a must have lure

 

[Harold]

Thanks Bob for the input going to get one sounds quite versatile .Cheers. Harold thanks for the pic that is a sexy looking lure something more natural for the fish but that picture sure caught me .Cheers.

 

[Dave Irving]

A little more natural coloured-works for me

Just ordered one in 500GP as well. Caught Bass and Mackerel on the Z claw, Forgive me Bob, but I prefer it to the Patchinko!!

Nice fish dave ,do you guys recommend one with a rattle or not.

 

[Mick Ward]

I am yet to work out which one is better, I mainly have ones with rattles though.

 

[bob jameson]

Dave dont worry about that , the Zclaw is fantastic the newly named ghost claw is one to have !!! but remember never under estimate the patchinko......

Aint that the truth, there is me being all smug catching a few nice fish on the Z-Claw and Bob goes and whops out a double on the Patchinko, story here.. http://mrfishjersey.blogspot.com/2009/10/bobs-10lber-on-patchinko.html

I used the Zonk for a while when out on Sunday, excellent casting lure and looks as if it dives very deep, I could feel it shaking or vibrating on the retrieve so this MUST attract fish, I think it is going to work well this season.

Sad as it sounds that made me buy a patchinko just after christmas cant wait to use it

 

[Dave Irving]

Mick is the Mullet coloured one a rattler or not??
and what about the pink/white and 500GP rattles??
Must think more before buying (HMMMMmmmm SHINEY)


Oh and Bob, I never underestimate the Patchinko, there is a nice new one winging it's way to me right now. Nothing gets them off the end of the local reef, like a slow worked Patchinko at distance (need the smiling devil symbol)

Deep divers are no good for me really this year got three marks on the lleyn picked out two are quite shallow and the other is weedlees sps only i rekon .Just gonna stick to these marks and pick up the knowledge .He who tries every orchard never tastes the best apple and all that.
