favourit trolling lure

[yellahunter]

what are your favourit trolling lures for impoundment yellas?
do spinnerbaits work any good in trolling situations

[McCod]

Newell M2 callop, Newell Boney 95mm, Flicks Cobra, Blitz Bagga, Fyshy Somerset 20 +,
to name a few. And yes spinnerbaits work OK sometimes on the troll running anywhere from just behind the prop in the wash to 20 + foot down.

Favourite trolling lure for impoundment yellas?

Several years ago I did some trial of lures side by side @ Somerset. I certainly didnt take every lure on the market out but of those I did trial the Strikezone Critter Large came out on top. I wouldnt have picked it as a contender looking at it before I started, thinking the Blitz Baga would rein supreme.
The Critter is now my favourite trolling lure for bass/yellas. Has done exceptionally well at Somerset, Wivenhoe, Moogerah, BP, Boondooma, Leslie, Monduran (for bass), Glenlyon, Splitrock, Copeton (yellas & reds), Samsonvale.
It saved by butt a few times when I was running my charter boat.
For yellas the black/red seemed to work better
for bass the purple or chartreuse was better

Fitzy..

BTW- I'm in no way affiliated with strikezone lures.

ok thanks for the help fellas, will have to give a few of them a try.

bills bug 75mm and the newell callop in both sizes work great

[macca]

If I ever troll and it is rare, I always use a Manns 10+ or 15+ in black and silver colour.

Always gets me some fish.

seem to hear a ot about these newel callops, are they the lures made down in tenterfield? where can i find these lures around brisbane/gold coast

[McCod]

Gday yellahunter ! The callops are a bit hard to get as Peter Newell has not been
making a lot of lures of late. I get mine off Peter Newell !. There is a tackle shope in Tenterfield that sells them when he can get em.So if ya ever in Tenterfied drop
in for a look.

Cheers Les.

[Remo]

Yella,

I also have Bass vipers and I swear by them. My first choice on bass when it comes to hard body
lures.

[davo]

You can buy all the Peter Newell lures directly from the man himself. If you can't find his phone number on the net just let me know, I have his details at home.

Peter is a great bloke and will only be too happy to help.
