Booty Bargain

[Guest tigger]

Can anyone tell me if these lures are any good?

 

My wife brought me a box full back from one of her local regular boot sales. She only gave £5 for all 22 of them so no worries if they aren't very good; just curious if anyones recognises any of them? And if so are they any good?

Very good for fiver, includes a couple of Shakespeare big 'S', which are reliable fish takers, for both Pike and Perch.

 

Wiil you take £6 for the lot??????

 

seriously i would have given £15 to 20 for that lot, she did well.

You got an absolute bargain there with £5 each being about the going rate.

The Salmo (four in fron the right on the top) is a particular favorite of mine.

Tigger what is it with you and car boots, you're blessed man.

 

I'm no expert on lures so I'll leave it to others but I did catch my first proper Pike on the same lure as fifth from the left on the bottom row. I'd give you a fiver just for that one. Has anyone else seen one of those lures recently are they easy to get hold of? Might of been made by a Swedish company called Landen or something like that. Might be wrong though, usually am.

 

Well done again, they all look in good nick too.

 

After the nights fishing I had last night and early this morning someone nearly got complete sets of Coarse, Sea and Game tackle for a fiver a a car boot in Suffolk this afternoon.

 

I was going to start a whinging thread but thought better of it..

I have always been a fan of the big s. Its a fantastic lure for all species and i have caught a lot of fish on them over the years, But remmember all lures have their day depending on conditions. At least at that price you wont be to scared of losing one or two lol

Good buy, those big S plgs on the top row are very good pike catchers on most waters

Here is a different picture. It may be a bit easier to distinguish which is which and what models they are and if they are any good

Thay are all good, all you need now is a baitcaster/lure rod, a low profile multiplier loaded with braid, some wire traces and your in the predator business.

Yeah Emma I have a small multiplier Abu 5501c3 and it's good for lure fishing. I have a Greys 11 ft greyflex rod and a small Abu for lighter work. I've been on about getting a single handed lure rod for yonk's but just never got round to actually buying one I've got power pro on that reel and on my okuma vs fixed spool. I 've used spinners for pike since I was very young but never really gone at it seriously. I've caught smalll pike spinning up to arround 9/10 lb so nothing to get excited about. I've also caught Perch but nothing over the pound mark. As I say I've just played at it when I've been bored.
