Hi, All,

OK, I know this stuff is designed to catch fishermen, not fish, but has 
anyone used any of the smartbait products?

That's right, I've just bought some! It's strange, but if you listen very 
carefully, you can still hear the tiny voice saying 'buy me, buy me' even 
over the internet. Take this as a warning and switch your sound off when 
browsing tackle shops!

Does the silence on this one mean no one's tried it or no one's caught
with it. I tried Fish'n'Strips several times with no luck ... probably
my bad technique or there were no fish out there!  I want to hear that
it worked for someone to encourage me to try again. I've tested a few
and they seem tastier than metal spinners and plastic eels ... and much
much more digestable  than  rotting crab. Are there any fish out there
willing to voice their opinion?

Is this an insight into your diet Derek.
I know that you are well versed in all things fishy and the best way to test 
is to try so now I'm seriously I'm worried for your health!
Give my regards to Hughie
