    Hi Mate,
    I came across a ##### little patten called the krystal charley by Gordon Macdonald. The patten is easy to tie and was has a proven background on beam,trevers tarpon and pike. Constrocted in the normal crazy charley patten on a mustard 34007 size 1 hook would in my thoughts be far to small and light for Jack. There is nothing to stop you ramping up the hook size and strength to give jack a run for his money. I will have a crack at tying a few and get some down to you soon. How is your little bass stalker going?

    Me Again,
    If your tracking jacks in the bad lands take a sek and have a geko at flyfisho,s warning about croc's in his speel on a "few GT's" in a previous thread.
    They can cover their tracks so well. I have seen this breed of croc down your part of the world.

    I have tied it & it works well.. It'l catch anything it floats past.
    Definately worth a tie.
    cheers baldy
