Was thinking along the lines of redhunter, there are some tweaks yoh can do across the seasons but trout are such you can keep it pretty basic and have some gear to cover all seasons pretty comfortably. So my lure gotos are- gold vibrax spinner #2 or #3, any 7-8cm floating shallow diving hard body t...

HeHe…….just about stock a tackleshop Meppsta. :thumbsup:

Plus I have to have a few of each, to equip my kids too. I used to criticise the blokes who would spend mega bucks...
