Has anyone used these things yet? if so what do you think of them.

I got two of them in the mail today after being selected by kilwell to try them out as part of a competition to win a promo pack after submitting a comment and photo of the best fish I get for the day so will be surfcasting with them tomorrow at whiritoa already got them blinged up on a couple of 50lb flourocarbon traces all I can say so far is they are scary sharp but solid looking hooks and the eyes have had the gap at the top of the shank welded up on them.Hope I get something better than a 27cm snapper on them tomorrow.

I applied aswell but no luck. The look the business but are quite expensive per hook. I look forward to your report!!

No excuses, just get out there!!

I got to use them yesterday but did not get to catch anything with them got till the 31 december to catch a fish on them and get my photo submitted and questionare filled out. the one bite I did get for the whole day the fish made damn sure it counted with teh size of the strike bait was untouched but the small pink octopus skirt got shortened by quite a few millimeters got a funny feeling too much of the skirt was hanging over the hook somehow I need to get that hook sitting further back behind the skirt maybe a longer bit of lumo tube between the hook and the skirt. Either way the extra bling certainly helped.

Yeah I got 2 aswell

they look the bizo I haven't given them a flick yet, ive always gone for gammys and I rate them highly so im hoping they will be as good as them only thing im not all that keen on is the angle they have put in the radius of the hook but im open minded about it too

I have to agree with that but also they could have given us bigge hooks I had a good fish spit out the hook at whiritoa so have decided to play dirty and have tied a second hook onto the trace so the trokar hook trails behind the octopus skirt and I have a 5/0 mutsu sitting above it but protruding out from teh skirt to accomodate a big strip bait hoping to get back there during next week if I do not start the dump truck/watercart driving job winz has referred me to.

speaking of which I got more stickers than hooks... where does a man put stickers... I know where man puts hooks so maybe a little less stickers and more hooks to bash out with

I was looking to buy some, but the price put me off, fairly expensive and bulky, but they look awesome for live baits
