Anyone know where I can buy or source these? They are a metal spinner that looks like a herring weight. Used to get them from oz2uktackle.com but the site dont seem to exist anymore....

I will be back there one day next year, that place was simply amazing, I'd love to see the fish rising and chasing lures in there, top water must be great when it on.

Yea, both I and Kev have both said we'll be back.

Love the place.

Wetsuit's next time though.

So many methods to try there I get excited just thinking about it.

Gold mine of a venue.

Yorkshire Game Angling stock quit a few versions of the Tassy Devil

http://www.yga.yorks.com/acatalog/TASMANIAN_DEVILS.html

It a great lure and it is a one of my main weapons in Norway’s Ossjoen, a mountain lake where I spend a week or so every July fishing for brown trout and arctic char. I’ve had both wild arctic char and wild brown trout to over 4.5Ib on Tasmanian Devils, and their sister lure Lofty’s Cobra.

Guys, I was given one of these in a mackerel blue sort of pattern but have never used it. Are they any good, and how would you fish one? I assume you use your regular bass gear?
