Nah mate! Used it a couple of times since with limited success!
In saying that I swap jigs every 15mins so I'm sure ill get some more one day!

Has anyone ever used the TT Revhead jigheads in the salt? I have some for fresh water use...worth trying? I did try similar ones at Brighton last year but most of my time was spent sheltering from the storm!
cheers

They would work really well on any flathead that are around as the love big, loud presentations, that paired with a 4" squidgie fish or an 80mm bloodworm wriggler or similar would work really well on flathead and quite possibly pinkies to!

Got that dreaded four letter word on that day, otherwise I'd be there.

Also, I have had in depth pm discussion with my coach (to protect his identity I shall refer to him as 'purps') regarding sp's for the day. Not sure if there are many members attending who are not salt experienced, but what are peoples 'go to' plastics (brand/size/style/color rtc) for the fishies that can be captured there?
cheers

Hahahahaa don't blame me if you get nothing. ... lol.
But those ones I mentioned will work and has worked for me a lot of the times.
The 4 inch gulp nemesis also looks very promising....

I saw them and thought about it but left it as I thought I had enough! But, now that you mention it...good one! Now I may have to buy more! Bangg They do look pretty good! Don't worry if I fail at Brighton, I also took the advice of some of the others here! :)

There is also concern amongst my fellow cod trippers as word got out that I purchased a squid jig! There is a rumour circulating that they have had crisis talks and I may be banned from this years cod trip...even an intervention order may placed on me! :oops:
