what would you prefer
« on: October 15, 2010, 04:10:34 pm »
two part discussion

first one on - during a dying sea
second  one-  flat calm conditions.

bait hearing a lot about fish taking mainly black lug.

if you had two bait choices for a fishing session and you had to choose between fresh blowlug or frozen blacks

 which one would you choose and why.

Difficult to choose as both baits have there day,think if its flat its all about getting a bait out with plenty scent......i could not really choose one over the other as both have been good baits for me in both the conditions you mentioned...............cant beet a good pack of frozen blacks though :up22:...............or a 100 boulmer bullets :s

Difficult one as you can fish the same mark and sometimes fresh works sometimes frozen.I tend to go with fresh blow lug but also carry frozen bait,anyway I hope frozen blacks are the answer just bought 100 and froze them down.

Its a a had decision at the moment , fresh blacks are fishing better than out else  in the area i fish, i love me bulmer worm allso , if i was preparing the blacks my self for the freezer , and then i know they have been prepared correctly i would use them over blow lug at  the moment, the blow lug are all milky at this time of year and dont seem to be fishing well , if the blacks were bougt frozen from a shop i wouldnt have as much faith in them you dont know how they have been prepared for the freezer

no prob i did,nt write it very good.
first part i ment what would you choose if you only could choose one bait ie frozen blacks or freshh blow lug after a big sea is dying off  would you choose the frozen or fresh for best results

Think If I was local it would be fresh blow as it's a more common bait to the area.

ad still think the fresh would fish better in both instances but im not a great believer in frozen baits.
