Ok so TOE007 howmuch does the havoc cost and what is the code? some more info pleeeeeeeaaaase
Havoc you will find in PE , well thats where i got some of mine and i believe its manufactured in PE , dont wanna hi jack this thread , but do a search on lure fishing for Kob , and you guys will find some info , check Spykers thread of how the read the water , the 'code ' wel theres no code in that sence of the word , but it just take time to figure out how to fish the surf succesfully with lures , spend some time ,it took me 2 years ,buts well worth it .
I love fishing with them , long casts and retrieve as slow as possible , just keep it moving , you will feel the bites , look theres plenty ways of being successful you can cast over gulleys on a bank , so my thoughts on this is that as the lure moves from the sand bank over the 'drop off' thats where they will eat it , Cobs patrol these drops up and down in search of food so when you pulling your lure over the gulley , obviously you are still in the strike zone , as you come out of the gulley on the the shallows , you have a damn good chance again , if you have a long gulley running not parallel with the beach , cast on the sides on the drop offs , what helped me alot was just to check out the water ,FISH HARD, fishing lighter line . colours that worked very well for my was the mullet , redhead , carrot , and fire tiger , black and whites , theres a couple of lures on the market that you can try , Havocs in my book are the best , second best i would say is the rappies , magnums [plastic lipped ones ]
Remove trebles , and get weighted ones on there, your lure will be close to 4 0z , you can make a proper cast !
Havocs last time i got some [it was a long time ago ] i paid like 60 bucks for one , cool thing is that fishing from sandy beaches you dont loose them , i have a couple of them that are 'retired' see the thread on the havoc theres pics of some of them .
i reckon a Havoc will put you back round about 120 to 150 , best shot is to fone up Commercial or some tackle place in PE and ask them !

soz for the hi jack
