Hi Duncan.
just wondering if i may ask;
a dumb question but the turkey sliders, are they the one's from River 2 Sea, or is there another brand apart from River 2 Sea turkey sliders?
anyway if the ones you mentioned are from R2S - did you get any good fish on those jigs at all and do you know yourself if who the angler or anglers were who used the jigs got a or any hits when the jig was being jigged up, or only on the drop?
reason i ask is because - a few time's i have been out jigging off-shore off Sydney and i tried and used a turkey slider River2Sea 1. for some reason i am not sure i honestly only got hit once but it was on the drop only, and not on the retrieve. Once that happened it occured to me as i started to think that they may flutter alot or do something on the drop when i got the 1 hit but failed hook-up unfortunately
which was quite a while ago now. I have also seen and witnessed myself of being out on a jigging charter and the skipper using a River2Sea turkey slider and in all honesty he to got hit on the drop only but the good thing was he landed his fish and it was not a giant like the one's in NZ, from what i remember it was a nice and good king for off Sydney.
