aaaa man the kings are going to leave my tinfoil for your fancy cd fish :p rofl

u gonna attach them with clip swivles ?
 
the salt water eats the CD's so don;t spend to much effort on them!

if you have a friend in Canada, get him to pick up some Stainless Steel Dodgers (Salmon Flashers) for you. these work AWESOME. especially for Talang Queenfish, Canad and Trevally. lots of them sold around here, (salmon fishing country) I used 5 in series suspended from my float. every 10mins I would swim back slowly to my float and usually find something looking at them :D

they look real good i dont blame da fish for coming up to them :D

bit of a pain in the ass to ship them from canada we have baits that look like them over here i might tryem .... have you ever tryed tieing a bag of chum ??? ... i know what ur thinking " might attract more than kingfish " :D
 
My favorite areas for Canad and big pelagics had a very healthy population of tiger sharks (Jurayd & Jana Islands) so no, I never used chum :D

these dodgers are 5-6" long and work great. I would suspend them 10-15" below my float. Talangs esspecially would seem to be hipnotised by them, often becoming totally oblivious to my presence when i snuck up for a shot. ocasionally they would get "hit" by something and the gun would be ripped from my hand, always exciting :D
