Thinking of trying some of these out , I currently fish a spinner rig with size 6 hooks. Have heard these have ridiculous buoyancy! Would an 11mm be appropriate to hook size, and any recommendations on flavours / colours ?

I use a size 4 ronnie with a 15mm one. It doesn't take a ridiculous amount of putty. I like the Nutty Maple Cream & Scopex Squid Liver. The pots with different sizes in them are good.

Look at the website, he used to have a good write up about what size bait holds up what rig etc.

11 mm white squid size 4 mugga on a ronnie and still need putty.
Them squid and octopus in 11mm white are a bit special.
Done me some big fish from tricky waters

They are the most buoyant, perfectly round pop ups i have ever used. Did well on the maple cream but struggled on everything else

Beware the 13mm they are too buoyant unless you are using them on a zig or maybe a chod with a really heavy leader and a lot of putty
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
