I fished the Port Melbourne / Willy area last night with yet another donut :dn:

As I was putting the boat in at Newport ramp I actually met Brett from Reedy's Rigs as he pulled his boat out. They caught around 5 last night in and around the area. After having a chat he was kind enough to give me a pack of his 187 6/0 hooks. It was definitely very nice off him. It's not often anyone gives you anything for free these days! Cheers Brett :ch:

Most of them were around mid 40s cm's and one was a very nice 4-5kg.

I have been using his ultra rigs for a while and I cant speak highly enough of them, you can see the quality in them. As for the 187 hooks he gave me I'm looking forward to trying them, they look very nice also.

The biggest problem in all this is actually catching a fish regardless of the gear :rf:

Are the Ultra Rigs worth the extra coin over the standard flasher rigs?
