Drennan Continentals. Awesome hooks and made from the best metal for hand sharpening.

Hone those points and they stay sharp like no other hook. I dont know what type of steel they are made from but I wish all hooks were of the same metal as Ive never seen any other hook sharpen and hold incredibly sharp points for so long.

theyre a great shape for fishing in weed, allowing less weed build up or snagging due to the tapered shape. Slightly weight forward, helping casting and hooking.

Ive checked several lead producers web sites without any success. Which surprised me.

Same for larger 5oz+ pear leads. They use to be popular but cant find any of those either

Ive checked a few suppliers and no one seems to sell traditional inline Zipp leads still ?

Anyone know lead boys who sell these old skool leads ?

Has anyone fished this lake recently. I will be working in that area come the end of Oct and wondered are the crays still as bad as the first reports suggest and whats the stock of the larger lakes on the complex ?
I am planning on 24hr sessions and worried about crays so will take nuts and plastic. Just wanted an update.

could you not take the end caps off, place your Dads ashes in the blank and reglue the end cap, the ashes would stay dry and secure in the blank itself.

Saturday morning is the best time to go visit for a chat. Kens there sorting stuff and always open to talk through anything. Mid week though, there so busy, they dont really have time to discuss much, such is the demand for bait.
Are you sure?
