        Blimey, that's some strong teeth!

        That location looks incredible, best prepare yourself for a chilly, soggy return to the UK.

            Great flicks G-San and nice seeing you having a wonderful break doing what you love. Those pics remind me how i badly need to go for a holiday, hopefully soon enough. Weather here in sweden is so unpredictable making you think staying in Ghana aint that bad after all.

                Toothy!

                Hi G, what is the effect of your modification?

                I've added a swivel between the lure and the hook to stop the hook rotating behind the lure.  I've swapped out the treble for a single hook, as I am using a popping float to give me the weight to cast with.  Because the lure is lighter than the float, when I cast the lure travels behind the float, using a single rather than a treble reduces the chance of the lure getting tangled in the line…

                                      I'm going to have to sneak in when Paula is elsewhere and manufacture a load.  The Cuda's simply nailed this thing.  I think that part of the reason was the commotion the popping float made a foot or so upstream of Come to Papa.  A number of times the fish hit the float (but usually came back for Come to Papa).  So I made a mod.  Unfortunately, the focus is all wrong, but you should see a stinger attached to the swivel below the float (it works - I had two hooked on that today…)...
