    Yep, Phil's right. I fish them in preference to anything else. I get them when they are on special, usually the tiger prawns imported from SE Asia,
    I get two baits from each, snap the head off, bind it up with elastic and tie it on a circle hook. I get Lemons, Snapper, Trevally, Moki and Kahawhai on em so far. I'v used them effectively from Akitio to Tongoia reef.
    They cost about the same as a IKg of pilchards.
    Unused ones can be refrozen a couple of times but dont get them mixed up with the ones for the table!
    Tight lines, Philip Dannevirke
