Hiya Fredster,

Now that's the proof in the pudding right there. That's a mil for the report back and the mention.

you need to pop into the Trophy Tackle Den soon again to check out the range of Coyote and Sea Iron spoons and jigs also the complete range of Clone lures.

It going to be a good summer!

Chat soon,

T

Hi Trophy i already got 4 different clone lures and cant wait for summer to try them. They got awesome movement in the water and can just imagine that a yellowtail will love them. Stocking up for summer so long. Will pop in over the weekend, need some leader line and different clone lure. Good prices at your shop and nice and close.

Do you use the lures like a jig or is like a leadhead, will try pull round this week. How much do they go for?

 

[Fredster]

Hi,
I'm still refining my style, but like a lead-head as well as like a slow (flutter) type jig, but not like a fast speed jig. They're quite wallet friendly...you'll probably get 2 and a bit o' change from a buffalo.
good luck & tight lines

Longtail Yellowtail caught recently in the Bay- also a rarity for the area.

Hi Malgas

I'd call that an Amberjack, the almaco jack ("longfin yellowtail") is much deeper bodied

and this is an amberjack

 

[Malgas]

Thanks, very intersting. What separates the 2 species- as both are so similar- what with both having the Olive Nuchal stripe. Is it distribution that separtes them or a completely different species due to physiology? Further confusion comes from the use of the term "Amberjack" as this tends to differ in relation to common usage in dufferent localities. What are the Scientific names?

What is price of these jigs? I have been looking for these for quite some while now.

If you read this please pm me regarding these jigs.

@Malgas - The Amberjack is Seriola dumerilli and if I am correct also called the dusky yellowtail.

The Almaco jack or longfin yellowtail is Seriola rivoliana

This is quite a good reference for how to identify the two species. Not something you would have out at sea but it gives you the right ideas.

Hey trophy, i know its an old thread, but the lure is actually still producing new species. At Noordhoek i was getting carpenters drop for drop

 

[Fredster]

nog n een

 

[Fredster]

whats actually interesting to me is sometimes its mixed bag, this that and the next; other times its one species only-like 10 fish in a row, and then it changes and you get a different species drop for drop and sometimes even a third species after that.
